S'eilWay Pianos are the best made in the
Uited States. In addition to thij fact,
many Of our people, particularly merchants,
visit your city once or twice a year and get

LEWIS LANES TRAGIC DEATH.
The Story Of His EVIL Deed which LIE,
to q Fathers Fatal ReVenRe.

The Story of His EVIL Deed which Led
to a Fathers Fatal Revenge.
The account in the MORNING News yes
terday Of the shooting Of Lewis c. Lane at
Quitman Monday night was read with a
good deal of surprise by those who knew
the young man here, Lane was closely re-
lated TO one of the leading families in the
southwestern part of the state.
From what could be learned yesterday
of the affair, it seems that Lane had for
some time been visiting a young woman
named Arlington, the daughter of a farmer
living just out of Qultman. Early
Sunday morning Lane and the young
woman started out for drive. On the way
Lane asked his companion to get out Of the
buggy, and she did SO. According to the
story Lane seized her by tae throat and
attempted to throw her down. In the
struggle she escaped.
Sunday night Lane was arrested, but was
released on bond. Monday he was re-
arrested and the sheriff, fearing trouble,
started with him for Townsville, when he
was overtaken by the young woman's father
and Lane was killed.
The news of his tragic death caused
sensation here where Lane was well known,
and for awhile some doubt was expressed as
TO the identity Of the people who were con
nected with the affair. Lane held the con-
fdence of his employers, and there was
universal surprise at the report of his
tragic death.

SHINALL BACK IN TINE.
A MUCH SOUGHT WITNESS IN THE
SHEFTALL CASE

The Trouble That the Solicitor General
Had in Getting Him-Why Shinall
Has Been Wanted, and Why He Has
Not Been Wanted The Solicitor
General Drops on to an Interesting
Correspondence

row, and it Is thought viii occupy the
whole day. William Shinall the states
only witness whom the officers have been
trying TO get hold of for some time, was
brought back yesterday and was locked up
for safe keeping.
Shinan has been in South Carolina, and
an effort was made some time ago t. bring
him back, but without success. solicitor
General duBlgnon received information
last week of his whereabouts. he was then
in Langley, S. G., short distance from
Augusta. The solicitor general sent an
officer to Langley to try and get
Shinau into Georgia. bur the officer failed
to get him. The solicitor general said tu9t
his efforts to get Shiaan were anticipated
bv rarties here and that he was unable t.
locate him. The solicitor SAID
that he had authentic informa-
ton that County Treasurer Russell,
who left Savannah last Friday night, had
seen Shnal and he referred 10 a copy OF
some correspondence which passed between
Shinall and Col. Russell The first was a
telegram, dated Langley, $. G., July TO- 1t
read as follows:
COL Wari,tg Pussel court House, Sauanuah,
Ga.
You have not come to promise. Have wcitcd
since 9th. II you sh to do business with me
you must answer BY S o'clock to-norrow morn
ing. WILLIAM SHINALL.
The second telegram was dated Sevan-
nah. July l, and was as follows:
Wnl. ShinaH. Langley, S. c.:
l leave on the night Of the 18th to see yon.
X.
Another telegram was dated Bath, near
Augusta, July -, and read:
Wnt ShinGU Langley, S. c.:
! am at Bath Come over or send for me.
r.
When the officer sent up by the solicitor
general reached Langley he found Col.
Russell there and he and Shinall disap-
peared. The next that the solicitor general
heard of Shinall was a telegram sent from
Langley Monday night, saying that certain
papers had been sent on TO Savannah.
Yesterday morning Shnal showed
up. The trial Is expected to
bring about some unusual developments.
If 1t had not come off at the present term Of
court the defendant, having made a demand
for trial AT the last term, would have been
the same as acquitted. 1t was necessary
that Shinall, upon whose testimony the
state is depending, should be here, and the
Solicitor General was satisfied that he was
being kept out of the way until the time for
trial should have gone by
