Mr.. Hoover's position is sound in principle

Detective Stories.
(Hastings, Neb., Tribune

(Hastings, Neb., TriDune.)
1t is safe to say that the majority OF the
male readers are interested, more or less, in
detective stories, and this is specially true of
literary workers.
Conan Doyle is the greatest writer of de-
tective stories known to the world His famous
character Sherlock Holiness is known in every
country on the globe.
Conan Doyle has killed OFF Sherlock Holmes
twice. but the reading public will not stand
for it, they forced him to put the famous fiction
detective back the job
Almost every day one can find plenty oil
material in the average newspaper for story writ
ing that will sound like fiction. For instance
here is one: The key to the mystery OF the Sis
kiyou tunnel murder found by chemistry
professor who deduced his clue from rag,
stone and strand of hair According to the
newspaper story the rag was pair OF soiied
tar-sneared overalls. the stone was pebble oil
rock salt which found clingng to the over
as and the hair single chance strand which
had fallen from the head of the murderer and
lodged in the shoulder seam of the carmen.
That reads like the starting of a Sherlock
Holmes story yet, 1t through such slight
clues that three murderers were traced and
brought back from the ends OF the earth.
\ Yes. truth is more strange than fiction

The reason woman Is disap-

Woman doesn't try to conceal
her person any more. and the

conceal her disappointment either
