The sheriff late Thursday afternoon
received a telegram from Sheriff E.
M. Davis, Of LaSalle county, Illinois,
that Newman was under arrest there.
A and would waive the Formally Of ex-
tradition proceedings.
Deputy Sheriff Tom Locke left for
Ottawa and is expected to return to
Mason city with his prisoner today.
When Newman and his family left
d here, his goods were shipped to Otta-
wa. The OFFICIALS learned that he as
signed his bill Of fading to a warehouse
man there named William Croker.
When Newman returned to Ottawa,
presumably to see about the goods, Il.
was arrested.
Sheriff Davis and Sheriff Marsh got
various traces Of the whereabouts of
the man, at Hammond, Ind. Chicago
and various other points. Altogether
probably hundred letters have been
written to Illinois and Indiana peace
officers regarding this man, as it was
certain he was in the territory some
where. and patient watching finally
brought results.
On his return to aason City New
man will be arraigned before Justice

RELICS IN PRIMITIVE MOUNDS.
Dr.. Stuckey Searches Iowa River Field
For Evidence Of Life Past.

Or. stuckey Searches Iowa River Field
For Evidence Of Life Past.
iowa City, Dec. Human remains,
charcoal, crude instruments and vari-
GUS soils are being taken by DIR. Lorln
Stuckey of the university of Iowa from
the primitive mounds which he recent
ly discovered on the Iowa river seven
teen miles south of Iowa City.
DR.. Stuckey is gathering data from
which he hopes to draw conclusions
concerning the antiquity of the mounds
and the characteristics of the people
who built them. 1t is not improbable
that his present Investigations may
have an important bearing upon the
old question, never satisfactorily set
tied, as to whether the mound builders
were Indians or an earlier people.
"A survey of the mound field recently
discovered has shown that the mounds
are in two groups, with seventy-f1ve on
high bluff overlooking the river and
several others across the river and in
the valley.
so far, only five have been excavat-
ed. In every mound human remains
have been found in promiscuous heaps,
which appears to show that some form
of burial was used which left only the
bones to be buried Some of the bones
bear evidence of having been hacked
by a dull instrument, probably before
burial
The most interesting discovery was
made in the first mound. "A crescent
shaped copper ornament four and a
quarter inches wide in it's largest di-
ameter and varying in thickness from
an eighth of an inch on the inside Of
the rim to a mere edge was found rest
ing against a skull in a position to
suggest a crown reposing on the brow
Of some high priest of ancient times.
Splendid specimens Of grooved stone
axes, which are peculiar to America.
ana many mint arrow points. scrapers.
darts. spears. and other stone weapons
have been recovered in the vicinity Of
the mounds.
University experts in anatomy are
studying the teeth found in the
mounds chemists are analyzing the
soils, and DR. Stuckey and his assist
ants in anthropology are assembling
photographs and charts and analyzlng
all the evidence in an effort to reach
definite conclusions concerning the Or
igin. antiquity. customs, and practices
Of the builders.
