HUMAN BONES
UNEARTHED
j. A. Fairchild Finds Part of
Skeleton In River Bank
Skull Is Missing

The Courier Reporter has a skele-
ton in it's closet. True it hasn't been
there long, just since last Saturday
when j. A. Fairchild brought to this
office a gunnysack containing the
last bleached remains of somebody
perhaps a fearless Indian chieftain,
maybe the first squaw of these parts,
or even some hapless white man the
story Of whose passing is not.
At any rate the bones in the sack
have been identified by DR.. L. G.
Spaulding as those of human being.
They were found by Mr.. Fairchild
about 8 miles down the valley where
a portion of the river bank had re-
Gently caved off. The skull is miss
ing but there are bones of the legs,
arms, feet, shoulder blade, vertebrae
and fragments of others.
Indications are that the body was
buried or deposited by the waters in
the river bank many, many years ago.
The question is, what's to be done
with them. Mr.. Fairchild doesn't
want them, nor does the Courier-Re-
porter. Should there be funeral or
should they be given to Charley Cope
land or Judge Staser?

he rented in Wenatchee. 1t is big

DRUB PASCO
ONCE MORE
Kennewick Takes the Rail
readers Into Camp by
Eleven to Four

In a windstorm which at times OBJ
scured the players and lost the ball
in clouds of dust, Kennewick Sunday
afternoon gave Pasco another drub-
bing on the baseball diamond. In
spite of the unfavorable weather,
more than 800 Kennewick and Pasco
fans shivered on the sidelines while
the Strawberry Pickers demonstrated
that their victory the previous Sunday
was not an accident.
With man behind the bat who
could handle Wirth's delivery, Pasco
came over confident that they would
even scores. In the first inning, both
teams drew blanks, but in the second
Pasco started the scoring by sending
one man across the home plate. In
their half Kennewick showed five men
around the bases. In the third they
annexed another, third in the fourth
frame and each in the seventh and
eighth, making total of IL.
After the second, Pasco was silent
in the scoring until the fifth when they
scored twice and the fourth and fl
nal run was made in the ninth.
Notwithstanding the wind and dust
Kennewick played absolutely air tight
ball until the ninth inning when. Kip
per dropped left field fly, Hickey
lost one at first and Rich fumbled at
short. These were Kennewick's only
errors, while Pasco committed total
of IL.
Miller, Kennewick's .spit-ball artist,
was invincible as he was the Sunday
before. He issued but one free pass,
held the hits down to six and famed
out IL men. Wirth didn't fare so
we'll. He was touched up for hits,
gave three bases on balls and struck
out only three men.

New Place for Automobile
Travellers Being Fitted
up by Club
LOCATED AT FOOT
OF WASHINGTON ST.
Shower Baths, Wash Rooms,
Cook Stoves and Other
Conveniences

Kennewick is making preparations
for handling bumper crop Of tour
lists. Reports from every tourist bu-
reau, automobile club and highway as
sociation in the country indicate that
automobile tourist travel through the
state Of Washington and the North
west this year will break all previous
records.
1t is estimated that larger per-
centage of tourists than ever before
will travel the Yellowstone Trail
through Washington. This is account
ed for by the better road conditions
along the trail, better information
service at the Spokane gateway, the
completion Of the Snake river bridge
and the building of the Columbia riv-
er bridge. While the latter bridge will
not be completed until the tourist
season is well advanced, its build
ing has been widely advertised in all
parts of the United States and it will
be one of the points of interest to the
tourists who come into this state.
Charles G. Huber, president Of the
Union Bridge company, says that al
though not entirely completed, the
bridge will be made ready for travel
in September or in time to accommo-
date the peak of the tourist travel.
In anticipation Of increased travel
the Kennewick Commercial club is
planning new tourist camping park
which it is believed will be superior
in every respect to the old one. The
new park will be located near the old
Annis residence on the Yellowstone
trail at the foot of Washington street.
The west half Of the Annis place
was recently purchased by c. z. Duff
fly who is cooperating with the club
in the preparation of the park, which
will be located in the old orchard to
the north and west of the residence.
Washington street will be extended TO
afford an entrance. Most Of the trees
have been pulled leaving only enough
for shade. The tract is being neatly
fenced with woven wire and painted
posts. Toilets, showerbaths, wash
rooms and camp stoves will be install
led. An open-air dining room with roof
and screened sides will also be pro-
vided and there is also a possibility
that electrical stoves which can be
used by depositing a coin will also be
installed.
The park will be in charge of Mr..
Duffy who will see to it that it is
well kept, that the comfort of the
tourists is looked after and that the
rules of the park are obeyed. This
park, like nearly every other one in
the Northwest, this year will be con-
Quoted upon camping fee basis. In
most parks the charge will be so cents
day for each automobile. The fee
here has not been definitely fixed but
it will probably be only 25 cents.
