SKELETONS FOUND
(By United Press Leased Wire.)

(By United Press Leased Wire.)
ALTURAS, Cal, April 29.-Two
skeletons have been unearthed in
the corner of the Modoc county
court yard, one that of a woman
and the other a child. Samuel Todd
and other old-timers say the bones
are those of woman named Brun-
ridge and her infant, who disap-
peared 80 years ago and were be-
lieved to have been murdered by a
French blacksmith named Jereaux,
who was the father of the child.
Todd was one of three jurymen
who sat in court and awarded the
child to Mrs. Brunridge, following
an attempt of her mother to take
the infant from her. Both mother
and child disappeared two days
after the hearing in court.

MAYHEM you see these
wv clever little dresses
and find out how little
they cost you will real
ize that it's useless to
buy material and spend
your time making them
or having them made.
Oftentimes the dress
sells for about what you
would have to pay for
the material and trim
ming, if you bought it
in the regular way. The
styles are certainly as
attractive as any you
could possibly select, if
you were having them
made.
Specially attractive is
the showing of wash
able Bingham dresses.
These are in a great va
riety of styles; patterns
range from the large
plaid to a tiny little
check. Some stripe eff
fects are seen. These
dresses are made with
low necks and are to be
worn with guimpes.

Bill Granting Veterans That Pen
sion Likely to Pass.

Reconsideration of the amendment by
Representative Sherwood of Ohio, a dem
ocrat, to the retired army officers bill,
granting disabled old soldiers a pension
Of 81 per day. stirred up quite a rumpus
In the House committee on military at
fairs yesterday. Several days ago, after a
rather lively session of the committee,
the measure was reported. Yesterday the
committee made an unsuccessful attemp,
to recall It. After a number of amend
ments had been voted down and an at
tempt 10 refer the question of the prob
able cost OF the proposition to the Secre-
tary OF the Interior had been defeated
the committee once more, by q majority
OF three votes, voted to report the bill.
Representative Prince of Illinois. a re.
publican, will have charge Of the bill on
the floor. as Gen. Sherwood, who the
committee had assigned to handle the
measure, would be entitled to some bene-
fit under its provision. and consequently
asked to be relieved. as he did not want
to have his attitude questioned on tina,
score.
Retirement on one-third or one-fourth
pay for army officers, depending upon
their length Of service, is proposed by the
bill, and Gen. Sherwood's amendment
would give the old soldier private who
became incapacitated as result OF
service, the uniform pension Of $50 a
month. The passage OF the bill by the
House Is practically assured.

Nebraska Supreme Court Decides
She Can Hold Office.

LINCOLN. Neb., March 3O.-Miss Ger

vember on the republican ticket treasurer
Of Cherry county. is entitled to hold that
Office. That was the decision last night
of the Supreme Court Of Nebraska, which
says that under the constitution there is
nothing to bar a woman from filling such
a place.
Miss Jordan's predecessor refused to
surrender the Office to her, on the ground
that a woman is not competent under the
statutes.
Judge Jacob Fawcett dissented from the
majority opinion on the ground that it
was establishing a dangerous precedent,
urging that II a woman were competent
to be county treasurer there was no rea-
son why she should not be governor.
