The mystety was cb'aicd up, however.
In a vcty few minutes.
Chief of Police lJobling was untitled
about S o'clock Sattnday night by Jos
rph Ounster that two carpenteis work
ing at the old Gunli r homestead nn
Pent! avenue had teporte-d to him that
the wltheicd up body of a man was
lying in the- cellar of thf house.
The chief immediately mganlcd -i
searching party composed of Lieuten
ant John IJavIs, Mr. iltitistor and sev
en! newspaper men. The pattj cn
teted the musty, dark cellar, made
greusome and uncanny by the single
light of a lantein and after soaiehlng
for ubotit ten minutes came upon what
the carpenters had taken for a body.
This was a heap of human bones
connected by ligament, and lying be
tween the temnants ot an old ttunk.
All of the bones of the human fram
wete there but the skull, which was
missing.
One of the party immediately jumped
nt the (onclulon that some one h.t 1
been mm doted, the head cut off and
the lenialns placed in ,i ttunk, which
was hidden In the cellar. Chief Rob

and insisted that the bones wete ptob

foinierly occupied tho house.
This view pioved to be collect, for

I became no better and finally broke

with inflammation and hemorrhages

congestion and falling of the womb
