Mystery Solved

BUFFALO (N. ", November 20.-
Matthias CHASER, a wealthy ranch
owner of Elko County, Nevada, and a
California pioneer, returned to Buf-
falo yesterday after an absence of fif-
ty-five years, and cleared up murder
mystery which, If solved sooner, would
have made life pleasanter for a man
named Rozier who had all that time
been regarded as his murderer.
Rozier and CHASER went West fifty
five years ago to seek their fortunes.
A year later Glasser's letters stopped
and Rozier returned with Glasser's
trunk and watch Rozier could not
explain satisfactorily what had become
OF Chaser, and to the day of his death,
ten years ago, he was suspected Of
Glasser's murder. Although never ar
rested, he was ostracised CHASER
knew nothing of the suspicious dir ct
ed against his companion, and yester-
day explained that he had given h s
effects to Rozier in return for m or ey
loaned. The two separated in Olio,
and Glasser went to California, being
one of the original gold hunters in
that State. He was not succe ssful in
that venture, and turned his attention
to ranching.

LET ALL BE TEMPERATE.

At time when the local mind is
stirred up over a question like the
local school problem it is we'll for both
sides to consider the matter in a calm
and friendly way, laying aside invec-
tive and harsh criticism. There are
strong. able men on both sides of this
school question, and the only way is to
abide the will Of the majority. 1t is
quite evident large majority of the
taxpayers do not want the proposed
addition. At the same time it ought
to be recognized, and doubtless is, that
the members of the school board have
the best interests of the town at heart,
and are laboring without compensa-
ton. 1t would seem that there hasIbeen
a tendency in some quarters to crit
icise the members of the school board
too harshly. AS the writer under
stands it, all the members serve gratu-
itOusly save the acting visitor, who re-
ceives compensation, as is the case in
every town.
