Old Pete's Little Joke.

Foolish questions and funny an
swers were under discussion in the
Trenton avenue and Dauphin street
police station the other day, and after
listening for a while to some amusing
instances, Sergeant McCay told the
following:
"Old Pete Flood was the attendant
in the Franklin cemetery some years
ago, and it became the custom to ask
him how business was, just to hear
his reply. It came in heavy bass
voice:
"Ain't buried living soul today "

Albuquerque, N. Mt was a brave

Tagging energies. Each fought till tne
breath left him, and the rugged olo

corpses Of the invaders.
It is a story without words that was
| told Cicero Stewart, sheriff OF Eddy
county New Mexico, and his two Dep
uties, Carl Gordon and Henry Boyo'
when they stumbled upon the -FOUR
skeletons few days ago in a cave III
the Businesses of the Guadeloupe
mountains while hunting for morse

fifty miles to the locality that was SAID
to conceal the man for whom they
were searching. At length they came
upon the bat guano cave that was DIS
covered short time ago by Jesse
Plowman, 12-year-old boy. Stewart
and his companions thought they
would explore the cave. They MADE
their way some distance into the IN
terror, and at length came to wide
rock chamber. The light poured in
through hole in the roof, and show
ed clearly the surroundings.
In the center of the chamber were
four skeletons. A closer inspection
showed that three of them were those
of human beings and that the fourth
was that of big bear. Among the
bones we're two rusty knives, a pistol
and some metal buttons. The clothing
had rotted away, and it was evident
that the tragedy had been enacted
many years before. But the surround
ings told the story, and it needed not
the recital of words to tell the sheriff
and his men what had happened. They
saw 1t as if they had been on the spot
when it was enacted.
