Pinner and Hall Lance, who had been on a hunting ex pedition during the day. The body was found in an old field about 200 yards from the banks of the Swan- nanoa river, and it is believed that the dead man is Jim Polland, a half- demented negro, who disappeared from his home in Cripple Creek sever al days ago. The discovery was re ported to Coroner Hemphill, who re paired to the scene and examined the body. No sign of a wound of any description could be found and it is thought that the negro in wandering around lay down on the ground and froze to death. It was the opinion of Dr. Hemphill that the man had been dead two or three days. FOR « TEN N ESSE E HOGS A Merry Christmas!
