SKELETON FOUND
Bones of Man Found in South Aber.
deen-Had Old Army Rifle and
loeger's Pack

Chief of Police L. D. Templeman
and Coroner r. F. Hunter have been
unable to find any clue to the identity
of the man whose skeleton was found
on Wednesday afternoon, lying in the
brush in South Aberdeen.
The pack and blankets carried by
the man indicated that he was proba-
bly, logger and an old Springfield
army rifle was lyin beside the body.
Seattle Daily Times of June IA,
1911, was found in the pack, so that
the death evidently occurred subse-
gent to that date.
Among his belongings We're found
watch, compass, shaving outfit,
brush and comb, and the usual equip
ment for camp. An effort was
made to read the number on the
watch in the hopes of obtaining a
clue, but it was so badly rusted that
this was found to be impossible.
The clothing consisted in part Of
corked shoes, sweater, blue flannel
shirt and black hat. The place where
the remains were found was off the
beaten track, and somewhat difficult
of access, so that death was probably
self-inflicted.
