FOUND SKELETONS,
Did Workmen at Salina While Digging
| Sewer.

Salina, Kan, Feb. 2O.-Workmen
digging for sewers for new houses be-
ing built on Eleventh street, excavated
four skeletons this afternoon. All
bodies of men. The skeletons were
badly decayed. evidently having been
buried fifty years. Coffins were also
found. One skeletons feet were en-
cased in old fashioned plow shoes still
in excellent condition. Another skel-
etOn had the top of its head sawed
off. evidently physicians had exam
ined the brain.
Old timers say the city's earliest
burying ground was located there 1t
is probable that when the bodies were
transferred to the present cemeteries
many were overlooked.
The clothing had disappeared and
there was nothing to identity the
bodies. Some of the skeletons had
decayed till little was left but skull
and arm bones.
They will be transferred to the pres
ent cemetery. 1t is believed that many
more skeletons are near there.

TOOK MEN WITH EMPTY GUN.
Three Surrender to Keeper of Broad
River Bridge.

Columbia, Nov. 1.-Two white
boys, John Driggers and Frank Coop
er, and a negro man John Franklin.
armed with pistols. shortly before
noon today held up five negroes on
the Columbia. Newberry and Lau-
rens trestle, at the city limits, and
robbed them of what cash was on
their persons. With their booty they
proceeded up Broad River road, but
when crossing Broad River bridge
were met by Melton Lorick, the
white keeper, who held them at the
point of a shotgun until Sheriff NC
Cain and deputies arrived from Co.
lumbia and took them in charge.
The prisoners in the sheriff's office,
after the money had been found on
them and the pistols taken from their
persons, confessed to the crime, it
is claimed.
They were locked up in the State
penitentiary charged with highway
robbery and carrying concealed wea-
pons. Mr.. Lorick's gun was unload
ed, but this the prisoners did not
know until too late. The robbery
was bold one and occurred within
sight of the penitentiary. Five ne
groes, Lewis Jackson, O'Dell Keyser,
Nels Keyser, Gus Keyser and Essie
Jackson, all farm hands employed
on the plantation of Representative
elect; J. S. Huffman, in the Dutch
Fork, were crossing the Columbia,
Newberry and Laurens trestle at the
edge of the city limits when they
were confronted by three armed men
who, at the point of pistols, COM
PEELED them to turn over what cash
they had and submit to being search

Hold-Up Reported.

HOlQ-Jp RepOTtcu.
The negroes reported tie hold-up
and Rural Policeman Koon, first get
ting the report, telephoned the de-
script;on and news Of the robbery
ahead. The highwaymen were MAX
ing up the Broad River road. Mr..
Melton Lorick, the keeper Of the
Broad River bridge, secured a shot
gun, and not daunted by the fact
that he had no shells, determined
to attempt to check the robbers if
they came in sight. Soon he saw
them about to cross the bridge and,
stepping boldly forward, pointed his
empty gun at them, and commanded,
Hands up" The highwaymen raised
their hands, and Mr.. Lorick held
them until the officers arrived. The
prisoners offered him S35 and their
pistols if he would lower his gun,
but he warned them to stand or else
they would abide the consequences.
Shortly afterward Sheriff ]. c. Nc
Cain, Deputy Sheriff Heise, Rural
Policeman Koon, Deputy Boland and
Guard Robbins, of the penitentiary,
with the bloodhounds, drew up in a
machine, having made the run of
three miles from Columbia at break
neck speed. The prisoners were
brought to the sheriff's office and
there searched. Three 32-calibre pls-
tolls, two Of them Colts and one a
Smith & Wesson, all loaded to the
hilt, and electric searchlight, cart
ridges and an iron chisel were found
on them. Some money was found
and after they were taken to the
penitentiary another search revealed
more money, the total amount re-
covered being S26.50, which they
had taken from their victims on the
trestle in amounts of $3.50 or more.
Two of the alleged self-confessed
highwaymen are white. One John
Driggers, about 16 years Of age, was
said at the sheriff's Office to have
been parolled from the State Reform
atory at Florence about a year ago.
The other, Frank Cooper, is about
IS. Both are residents of Columbia.
The third member of the gang is
negro named John Franklin, alias
William Fessinger He is about 2o
years of age and of surly disposl-
ton. He told the sheriff that he was
released from the city chain gang
only last Saturday and at one time
served on the chain gang in Florida.
He claimed also to be from Alabama.
The officers consider him bad char
acter.
officers are inclined to the opinion
that the three started out for a reg
u!ar robbing game, and that the
hold-up on the trestle was just the
beginning of their plans. 1nvesti-
cations are now being made to find
out if they have been connected with
any of the robberies in Columbia. A
gentleman telephoned the sheriff last
night that his house was robbed last
night and a pistol and $3.50 in
money stolen. Each of the prisoners
bod inst secured new leather holsters
