Mystery Solved
in Short Order

The discovery in the shaft of the old
Meridian mine of bones resembling
what might have been the remains of
some unfortunate human being caused
considerable excitement for short
time Wednesday afternoon, especially
to Earl r. Godbe and Carl Nachrub, the
two men making the discovery.
GoGbe and Nachrub had gone into the
shaft for exploration purposes and in
their travels and Investigations came
upon bones which resembled the ribs
of a man, and straightway they en-
gagged in speculation and further In
vestigation. All was properly set for
the notification of the county authori-
ties and news reporters when the re-
markable discovery was made that the
bones were part of the remains of
some member of the canine family and
which had likely fallen into the hole
some day in the distant past.
Disappointment was expressed and
was undoubtedly felt by all concerned,
for the momentary mystery was closed
as quickly as 1t doomed for investiga-
ton. The remains of the dog were
