That was an awfully fishy story
told by a witness held in connection
with the Hall-Mills murder in New
Jersey, in which the witness claimed
that he accompanied the man who
did the shooting, and that it was a
case of mistaken identity, the alleged
murderer having been on a still hunt
for his lady love and her step father.
The witness said that the bodies were
left just as they fell, while when they
were discovered, they had been laid
out with the greatest care, with hands
folded and faces covered. The Off
,ers of the law may well look further
for the murderers, or look closer.

of Kieff, was not only personal, but
an international success, as 300 Sculp-
tors of all nations competed for five
wears Three times SciOrtinO COM
peted and won money prizes. When in
1914 he won again it was decided to
give him the order for the statue. The
decision of the committee caused great
indignation throughout Russia.
The committee then decided to hold
a referendum. All the prominent men
and women Of Russia were asked to
view the model and decide whether
the Russian models were equal to that
of the British sculptor. They unani-
mously held that the statue chosen
was best Of all the other 200. This
referendum was taken carefully. The
written opinions were placed in sealed
envelopes, in a sealed box and only
opened after all had finished voting.
The occupation of the city in Mos.
COW by the BoIshevists prevented the
statue ever being erected and the
final award was never given to the
sculptor. Now an effort is being made
