SKELETON OF INDIAN GIRL FOUND UNDER STORE.

The skeleton of an Indian girl, unearthed at Baum’s Bridge on the Kankakee river, has been taken to Valparaiso by Carl Black, a relic hunter, who received it as a gift from James Collier, who was excavating under his store building for a basement when his spade struck the bones. Nearly one hundred fine white shell beads were found near where the skeleton lay. The bones were in an excellent state of preservation. The man that beats up his wife every, evening may have a good excuse in his own mind. But there is no excuse for the man that lets his wife beat him up every morning. He’s, less ambitious than a miner—as Useless as a coal wagon. The man who needs his car in the winter (and that includes everybody) has little excuse for not looking into the labor and moneysaving proposition offered in the Franklin car. Carlisle has heard from—but still the stills are still. THOMPSON & KIRK.
