When the Sheriff Gardner and his posse arrived at Davenport Thursday with the outlaw’s remains the whole town went wild. ‘•Hurrah for Lincoln County,” was the cry, and it was with great dif ficult that the crowds were forced back enough to admit the passage of the body into the morgue. Insistent demands to see the re mains were made by the excited people, and after a time many were admitted. Then the trouble started. Relic hunters were everywhere, and within ten minntes the corpse was almost entirely stripped. His clothes were cut off, the bloody cloth with which he had tried to staunch his wounds and the strap he had used as a ligature were all carried away and even the head of the dead mur dered was almost entirely shorn of hair. Great iudignatiun has been ex pressed over the occurrence, and it is not unlikely that many prosecut ions will follow. M' PORTLAND CARNIVAL OPEN ING DAY.
