However much food for diacuasion a

it Is an affair ao one ceurls even tor tbe
purpose ofoetal nlag aa excitement fer a
few days. Yet murder Is a part of tbe
history of nearly all communities, and
It Is a matter which moat necessarily be
brought Into Courts el r'.stlce. It is a
good, ao well as astaral provision of tbe
laws of the land that amsa Is at guilty
ef erirne until it Is proven against him,
by a competent Court ef Justice and be

Is for this reason that, however guilty
a person may be considered, he haa a

Jury ef bis peers, and most writers oa

eeasure to defend such a criminal so

the conjectures aa to what it was. As a
starter It was claimed that It waa taken
from the Cascade Mountains where it waa
found hurried fifteen feet under the earth.
Oae said it was a vertebrae from tbe hack
bone of an Indicn child, another that it
was a vertebrae from the whale that Jonah
swallswed, aaotbsr that it was a part of
the back bene of Sampson, another that
it was the knee pan ef a Corvallis girl,
another that it was taken from the oheek
bono of a San Francisco d rammer, etc
Later. We have since learned that It
was the vertebrae of a whale that left its
bones on the Cascade range so vara! years
sgo when that was an inland.
