more wild and more picturesque mountain
scenery than almost any other river in the
I'niUiI States. Contrary to a geographica 1
law this wonderful river cleaves the
mountains and is set down in the Ixioks as
the only river of note in the world which
bears this distinction. Who the first pilot
was who searchid out the course aud made
the first perilous trip with flat or rafts is
not known, but it will not lie hard to keep
watch for the last man who will try it.
Klllrd en the Railroad.
On Sunday morning alout one o'clock
the remains of an unknown man were
found on the railroad track at the east end
of the tunnel neat Hennington. The body
was frightfully cut up, both legs and the
light arm being cut off close to the oody.
The head, also, was almost entirely cut
off, the chin alone adhering to the neck.
The different parts of the ImhIv were col
lectinl in a lox and taken to Altoona.
There was nothing about the person of
the victim by which hecould bo identified.
He wore chestnut colored trousers with
"cad colored underclothing. Near the
body was round a paper sack containing
some clean shirts. It is believed that lie
was 30 years of age, and a workiagmau in
search of a situation.
