FIND 20 INDIAN SKELETONS
Superstition That They Were Buried
Near Where They Fell
In Battle.

Oregon City. ore,-While excavatine
for a basement near the river bank
men employed by Frank Busch have
uncovered 20 skeletons of Indians in
one hole.
The bodies are supposed to be the
remains Of Indians killed in battle, for
in one or two cases arrow heads have
been found caught between the bones
The first trace of the bones was
found early in the week when the
workmen uncovered a skull. It was
buried by itself and Mr. Busch. who
has studied the find carefully, believes
that 1t belonged to a chief or leader.
To prevent disturbing the bones the
workmen began excavating in another
place and they found hole with a
radius of about six feet, which Mr.
Busch estimates contains the bones
OF at least twenty Indians. The skele.
tons are lying like the spokes of a
wheel with the skulls in the center
Over the top of the grave was a thick
hard crust Of baked clay that was
like stone.
