Can't Be Either.

A reader of the INDEPENDENT down
South sends the following: You are
either the best newspaper man in the
United States or the biggest liar!
Which is it?''
The INDEPENDENT editor is too
modest to accept the first part of the
complimentary insinuation, and as for
the last, he affirms-with his hand on
Georges little hatchet-that he is
entirely truthful.
The mystery must remain unsolved.

DETECTIVE HAS NEW
THEORY IN A MYSTERY

Columbus, o., March 16. Henry
Hagelgans, brother of the woman
who was found murdered in her Sc
cluded home near Morgans, March
5. has retained Detective Thomas E.
Foster to investigate the crime and
run the murderer to earth. If
possible.
Foster holds THAT there were two
men concerned In The murder, that
the woman was shot outside of her
home and carried in and placed on
the cot where found. He also does
not believe that Frank Coltz, the
missing farmland, Is guilty, although
be says he would not let him slip
his fingers If he caught him.
1t is Fosters notion that Miss
Hagelgans. hearing a noise outside
near her home, arose from her
couch took her pistol and went out
side. Seeing a shadowy form she
fired and was then shot by some
one nearer the house than she was
herself.

IMPORTANT QUESTION
NOT SETTLED
MATTER OF STATE OR GOVERN
MENT ACTION IN LIBEL CASE
STILL UNCERTAIN.

New York. Jan. 27.--With the ex-
ception of witnesses before the federal
grand jury in the proceedings against
the New York World for alleged libel
in connection with the Panama canal
purchase suspended, it was still an
open question today whether the case
would again be taken up next week in
it's federal aspect or turned over to
District Attorney jerome for prosecu-
ton under New York state laws.
Mr.. Jerome said today he was not
in position to say whether he would
be called upon to take the matter be-
fore the county jury. Mr.. Jerome
says Douglas Robinson, the presidents
brother in-law, would be the logical
complainant in any criminal action the
district attorneys office might insti-
tute.
Mr.. Robinson, when seen today, de-
clined to discuss the matter.
Mr.. Stimson was equally reticent. II
is known. however, that he has beer
in conference with District Attorney
Jerome for several days.
