tragedy came to headquarters in a
telephone call at 1858 clock asking
for an officer to come to 276 Ham
ilton as soon as possible. Officers
Schlanze and Tackett were detailed
and upon finding Reed lying in q
pool of blood they summoned the
county hospital ambulance. He was
taken to the county institution
where an examination by physicians
revealed that his condition was
extremely critical.
Following the discovery of the
injured man police started an in
veStigation with the result that
three persons were booked at head
quarters for questioning in the mat
ter. They are VIM. Roehl. who
cooked for Reed and lived in q
garage on Reed S property. When
by police, according to
the report, Roehl was very drunk
and said he had seen Reed about
8 or o'clock yesterday morning in
his home and he was all bloody,
"juSt like he had fallen down."
Corene Pack and Clara McBain,
said to be step-daughters of Reed,
were also booked for investigation
by police. They told conflicting
stories about a party that had been
held in their home Thursday night
during which an uncertain quanti-
ty of wine was consumed. Another
man said to have been member
of this party is being sought by po-
lice for questioning.
Reed Is said to have lived alone
in his small house but shared his
with his step-daughters
and it was when Clara McBain
went to look into this box that she
discovered what had happened.

Whose writings are read daily by
the greatest number of people?
You are almost sure to guess wrong
on the answer TO this question, un-
less you are acquainted with the
newspaper business as a whole in
the United States. The most wide
ly read newspaper writer is o. o.
Mcintyre, who writes about New
York as he sees it. Even in books
and magazines there Is no writer
who can count his readers in such
large figures as Mcintyre can use
with assurance. 1t is possible that
the Bible has more daily readers,
since millions of people make the
reading Of few verses from Scrip
ture a rule OF life. It is not pos
Sible to estimate how many readers
of the Bible there are every day,
but 1t is fairly easy to estimate
McIntyre's readers, because the
number of newspapers printing his
writings and the circulation of
each are matters of record
The newspapers now printing
McIntyre'S New York letters have
a total Of about 100000 readers
and surveys indicate that not less
than three-fourths of the readers
are daily followers of Mcintyre. SO
here is writer who may conf
IDENTIFY count upon fifteen million
readers for anything he may write
for a daily newspaper. No other
writer has ever commanded any
thing approaching such a gigan-
tic audience, day after day.
He is an incurable small town
boy. Although he has been writ
ing New York letter for news
papers for IA years, he still has the
fresh, rural viewpoint. He has
never been dazzled by the bright
lights Of Broadway. He goes about
town, keenly observing its life and
manners, and noting the thousand
an done sensations and reflections
that the city brings to him. Then
be writes his letter to tht "home
folks" And McIntyre's "home
folks" include at least fifteen mil
lion persons who like to hear about
the big city from their very own
