He took it to the ferry hbose and it
is there at present.
There has been various speculation
as to whom the skull belonged. It wan
thought for a while that it might be
the skull of young Haddock, who fell
from the government quarter boat
near Direct about a year ago and was
drowned, but most Of those who have
seen it are of the opinion that the squll
found in the river belonged to a per-
son who had been dead longer than
the quarter boat man had been drowns
ed. After the skull was pulled dut of
the water no effort was made to find
the body. Evidently there was a skel-
eton in the water, and the skull was
probably torn loose from it in tugging

While Wade Jennings, a young fish-

W. M. Newman, formerly of Honey
Grove, who has long claimed to be a
clairvoyant, is still finding things. It
will be remembered that Mr. Newman
found a number of lost articles while
he lived in Honey Grove; he also lo-
cated many pieces of valnable jewelry
the owners had lost since he moved to
Bpnham. The following from the Bon-
ham Favorite tells of Mr. Newman’s
latest find:
Yesterday evening while out riding
with her husband, G. W. Fuller, in
their Cadillac touring car, Mrs. Fuller
lost & valuable diamond from her ring,
and 'did not miss it until she returned
home. The stone was attached to the
ring by a screw, which had become
loose, allowing it to fall out.
^Ir. Fuller reported the loss to W.
Mj Newman, who has become noted
for his ability to recover lost articles
under such conditions. Early this
morning Mr. Newman, accompanied
by Mr. Fuller, began a search for the
diamond and after a short while Mr.
Newman announced that the stone was
not in the city, so they started out in
the country over the route taken by
Mr. and Mrs. Fuller yesterday even-
ing. After riding for about 7 miles
along a country road south of town,
Mr. Newman said: “Stop the car, I
think I see your diamond.” Getting
