(Special Dlapatch to The Jonraal.) Grants Pass, Or., May 20. A bleached skeleton with a bullet hole In the skull, and a few locks of hair, found In. the dense woods a fe miles from Selma. on the Orants Pass-Crescent City stage road, are mute testi mony of a crime that wis committed several years ago in the mountains vf Josephine county, the perpetrator of wnicn is unanown. The skeleton was found a few days ago by a prospector. Sheriff Russell went to the n llo found the skull and a few locks of hair. The ekull Is pierced with a bul let hole at the crown, and ha another ln the right eye. Indicating that the person was snot wnne lying down. It is the belief of the offloers thnt the skeleton Is that of a peddler who mysteriously disappeared while camped near Selma 15 years ago. He was known to have considerable money. It Is believed he was shot while sleop in, and his body dragged Into the woods. An old blaze made by an ax was on a tree Just over the spot where the bones were found. This was prob ably a mark made by the murderer to Indicate the burying place. A peculiar feature of the tragedy is that the bones were uncovered only a few days ago, since they were lying exposed whan the miner found them and the shovel marks made by the one who exhumed them were fresti. Possibly the man who confmltted the crime only recently visited the spot for some unknown rea son and uncovered the bones of the one he murdered so long ago. Tne skull is small. The hair Is well preserved and Is medium dark. Those who remember the peddler say his hair was of this shade. The officers have but little hone of apprehending the guilty party, as so many years have passed since the tragedy was committed, but all evi dence possible Is being gathered. The old adage, "murder will out," may prove true even in mis extreme case. SHOW W03IAN HEAD OF FORMER MASTER (Colted Press Leased Wire.) Paris, May 20.

Me MORE ABOUT Irvkgtoe Park" is the request of the numerous persons coming to our office daily; we do, and we show them, too You Want to Know? 0 Come In and we'll show you, also. Ifv Ington Park prices are very low compared with what is being asked in other sections of the city for lots with fewer advantages of location and improvements. In Irvington Park you buy a big lot ready for a lawn and garden without any expense of hauling dirt or removing rock. In Irvington Park you are protected by STRICT building restrictions from having your neighborhood made unsightly and the value 1 of your property injured by shacks and cheaply constructed buildings. if in Irvington Park you have the very best of terms of payment, as 10 per cent down, $10.00 per month pays for any lot. So you see you are getting about as fine a proposition as you could wish and it's offered you just about $100 a lot less than you can buy property elsewhere in the city that begins to equal this in desirability. Make your selection at once if possible. Phone the office what day you can go out and we'll arrange to take you out with us, or take the "A" car direct to office on the property. F. B. H0LBR00K CO.
