(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.

(Colted Press Leased Wire.)
Paris, May 20. A woman known as
Marie Oilles, who was arrested at Nice
on suspicion of having murdered her
employer, a banker, named Raimbault,
has been put through a terrible ordeal
to make her confess. She was Informod
that she must be confronted with the
Dody wnicn she cut to pieces. The
woman became livid with horror and
desperately resisted the efforts of
gendarmes to drag her to the death
room. She was forced to go, however,
and when she passed through the door
way another gendarme suddenly thrust
the decapitated head before her face.
The woman went Into hysterics, wildly
declaring that she had not killed her
master, but admitted that in a moment
of panic had cut the body to pieces.
She declared that he stabbed himself
in the heart while taking a footbath
A letter written by Raimbault Itlsf be

(United Press Leaaed Wire.)
Reno, Nev., May 20. Orders have
been Issued to rush with all possible
speed the work Of constructing the
Western Pacific railroad's new tunnel
through the Sierra Nevada at Chll
cott during the coming summer. The
slow progress made doling the past
winter is partly responsible for the or

of an Increased force. It is not thought
that the tunnel can be completed Inside
of a year, but when It is finished the
main work of the Western Pacific's
route will have been done. Officials
of the road expect that within two
years trains will be running through
