MA YOR KILL D.
The Heroic Mayor of North Caro-
lima Town Killed by a Disor-
81 derby Negro.
The Murderer Will Doubtless Be
Lynched, the Jail Being Sur
rounded by Mob.

SPARTANBURG. S. c., Sept. 2s.-This little
city, situated on the Charlotte & Atlanta
railway, branch Of the r. & D. system,
was the scene OF tragedy at p. III. to-day.
J. Henneman, the mayor, was shot down
without a moments warning and the MUIR
derer is now in Jail in momentary expect
ancy of being lynched.
John Williams. burly negro, was max
ing disturbance at home with his wife.
Cries of all sorts were heard from that
direction and Mayor Henneman went to
the house to find out the cause. He ar
rested Williams and was trying to prevent
his escape until the police came to his
assistance. Williams succeeded in pushing
Henneman out of the door, and while he
was falling shot him in the back, killing
him instantly. IT. ~.
To say that the town was excited does
not begin to express it. Groups of excited
men are gathered all over the city talking
of nothlng else. At s p. NJ. the Jail is sur
rounded by bowling mob and lacks only
leader to procure the prisoner There is
no doubt that South Carolina will add an
other lynching to her list before morning.
Mayor Henneman some time ago pre-
vented a mob from lynching Murderer
Turner, an influential farmer who killed
his brother-in-law. Henneman, on this
occasion, mounted a cannon. which the
mob placed near the Jail, and with pistol
in his hand shouted that he would kill the
first person who approached the Jail. By
his GOODNESS Turner was saved.
