CHASTITY FIND NEAR LCVELOCK

District Attorney j. A. Gala
han has received a letter from Love
lock telling Cf the finding of two
skeletons on the road from Love
lock to Coppereid, about twelve
miles southeast of Lovelock.
The skeletons had apparently
been buried a long time. and Is
there was any clothing on them
it had rotted. They were wrapped
in gunysacks or material of that
kind. One of the skeletons had
long hair and is believed to be
that of a woman, They we're
buried about six feet beneath the
surface.
John Reid, for whom the camp
of Coppereid is named, recalls that
about nine years ago he found a
set of wOman's underclolhing and
some clothing of a mar near the
place WI ere the CHASTITY find has
just been made. The woman's
underclothing was bloodstanined.
On some of the mans clott ing was
found the Trademarks of Carson
City bushes firm. About the same
time a span of horses was found.
with harness on, near the Carson
sink. No one in that section
recognized the horses, and ron
ne citing the finding of the horses
with that Of the blCrCy clothing
the theory was advanced that a
murder had been committed and
that the parties committing the
murder had taken the wagon and
left or lost the horses.
The letter which brought the
information to Mr.. Callahan did
not state no. the skeletons came
to be found. 1t may be that they
were found in prospecting. or
possibly some wild animal brought
fragments of the cloth to the
surface. which was seen by some
one passing, when an investigation
was made.
Mr.. Callahan has written to
inquire when the inquest will be
held and it is his intention to at
tend. Humboldt Star.

SHOOTING SCRAPE

District Attorney Dysart has re-
ceived a letter written on the 18th,
from Justice of the Peace Ray of
J%arbidge, saying that a shooting
scrape took place there that day
between Jack Flynn and William
Corners and that no h had been
arrested and put under $1,000 bail
each to appear for trial on the
18th.
The letter says that neither Of
the men r seriously hurt and
that Corners would be taken to a
hospital at Twin Falls, Idaho, that
night.
Judge Ray does not give any of
the particulars in his letter but
from the district attorney we learn
Corners is a partner of Pope who
killed a mar in Jarhidge last year
and whom tn grand jury refused
to indict.
We judge from Judge Rays
letter that gun" men are rather
numerous in Jarbidge. If so they
should be given a good dose OF
the law.
