A new phase of the mystery which developed with the finding of a body ebout a mile and a half south of Sodium station was brought to light yesterday evening with the return of Coroner L. M. Gay to Casper, with the remains. Instead of solving the mysterious disappearance of one of the three men who have recently been missed in this vicinity a new mystery was developed when it was learned that the body discovered was that of a boy, presumably between the age of 2 end 14 years. There were no means of identifying the child, with the exception of par- ticles of heavy clothing, a home made trouser belt and a heavy pair of leather shoes. The shoes were of ex- ceptionally heavy type, much heavier than types of shoes generally worn by children of that age. The shoes were eight inches in length. The remains were found on the bed of Castle Creek, about 32 miles west; of here end every indication led to the belief that death had occurred be- tween 18 months and two years ago. There were no broken bones to in- dicate that the child had been the vic- tim of violence of any kind. The heavy clothing and heavy shoes lead to the belief that the child must have been lost in winter time. How he got into Castle Creek, the banks of which are high at the point where the body was found is problematical. One theory is that he strayed from some- where and got lost in a blizzard walk- ing off the high bank too late to dis- cover his danger. There is very little water in Castle Creek and it is improbable that the body ever washed into the stream. The head of the skeleton was pointing from Azores to Portugal and Crew Is Given Ovation on Safe Arrival {down stream, with the face pointing, ‘upwerd. | Leading to the belief that the body | had lain in the stream for many| ‘months was the fact that the body; (By United Press.) x | was partly covered with moss, | LISBON, May 28.—The Americans are ready for the 700-mile hop The puzzling feature of finding the| to Plymouth, England, to complete their historic air voyage.

The building occupies a site in the center of a city block bounded by Sussex, Park, South Cen- ter and David sfreets. The basement of the city hall is fitted up specially for the police de- partment. Commodious quarters are occupied by the jail, with separate quarters for men and women. On the, south side of the biulding a court room has been fitted up very com- fortably, and, incidentally, is quite a departure over that used here in the ‘past. Chief of Police McGrath is |provided with a private office, as is ithe case with under-officers on the force. On the west side of the building the fire department is quartered, spe- cial plans having been carried out for the purposes of the department of the city. The motor trucks and fire ex- tinguishing equipment are on the ground floor and overhead is the sleeping quarters for the regular firemen, six of whom are now in the, employ of the city. A spacious gym- nasium, a club room, shower baths and locker rooms are also provided for the comfort of the firemen on the second floor. On the ground floor on the east side of the building, the city govern- ment department is quartered, sepa- rate rooms being -provided for the water department, city clerk, city treasurer, council chamber and may- or’s office. These offices are equip- per very conveniently and enter into a large circular rotunda. ———— EXPECT ATTACK FROM GERMARY, TS POLE ALIBI (By Associated Prens.) + PARIS, May 28.—Fears of a Ger- man attack on Poland were expressed by Polish Premier Paderewski, who arrived in Paris from Warsaw last night.
