Tom lIcndcrsons Tragic Career Ended
His Body brought Homo.
[EfcgiStcr.]

Saluda, $. G., April G.-Thc body of
Tom Henderson, who was reported Il
few days ago to have been shot at Il lit
tie hacIwoods station in Southwest
Georgia, was brought to Saluda last
night and will be buried to-day.
1t will be remembered that Tom Hen
dcrson was tho principal in the killing
of John BuzHard ON our streets in No
vrmhCr last. T0!,. as well as his broth
CT Will and their father, Mr.. IIcndcr-
son, have been ont on bail awaiting
their trial at the May term Of court for
Saluda. Since january Tom has been
at work on Il railroad in Southern Gcor-
giu, near MI. Vernon, Il little town
about twenty-five miles North Of S;a-
vtnnah. On Thursday OF last week Il
telegram WAS received by Tom : family,
who live near here, to the effect that he
had been shot and was not expected to
. live. Mr.. Henderson and two Of his
sons immediately left for Mt. Vernon
and nothing definite could br ascertain
cd rs to Toms condition until their re
None OF the details Of the tragedy could
DC learned further than tho fact that
! he was shot by one Jenkins, who was Il
| member of Il squad Of about $50 men
engaged in the construction Of u trcs,lc
! ON some railroad near the little village
Of Mt. Vernon. The shooting took place
on Tuesday night and Tom fingered un-
til Saturday night and died. Tho
: wound took effect i'm the abdomen, the
bowels being perforated.
There is something tragjcal in the
death of Tom Henderson when it is re-
mcmbcrcd that he was the principal in
! the killing Of John Buzzard in Novcm-
Der last, who in turn killed first Bud
Morse. and aftrrward Jack Bladon, who
! was himself convicted for killing ne
gro in SpartanburG while constable,
sentenced to hang and was uftcrward
! pardoncd by Senator Tillmau, then
, Governor.
From what we could learn no inquest
was held over Toms body and no at
| tempt has been made to arrest Jenkins.
just what caused the shooting we arc
! also unable to ascertain.
When the news ofTom's having been
shot was first spread abroad it was Sc
crctly whispered by some that it was u
| fake, and only intended us Il sham to
allow him to make his escape and not
! leave his hondsmcn liable. But when
! DR.. kirkscy Of our town was sent for
by the l'cndcrsons to go and attend
their wounded brother, all doubts were
rcmov' d and since his body has been
; brought back for burial at his mothers
completely upset.

FELL OFF THE SHIP.

Sailors Who Were Not Accustomed
to the Trolley Gunhoat.
They were two jolly tars of duty and
making the most of brief relief from
excepting ship" After a cornwall call
up the line they were coming through
,Tefsskson avenue on the rear end of
motor car and smoking their pipes
while they talked with the usual volu-
bility of the sailor in port. As lady
came from the somewhat crowded car
the little fat son of Neptune stepped to
u1he street that she might have clear
passage. OF course he had to touch his
cap and by this ceremony hewas delayed
lust long enough to have the car start
with q jerk as his foot was on the Atep
to feioin his mate When he hit the
pavement he struck out like a STRONG
swimmer for two or three strokes be-
fore realizing that he was not in the
water.
"Man overheard" whooped the lad
on the platform. Dropped over the
port side of the stern Slow her down,
man, slow her down and back up" as
he excitcdly grasped the arm of the con-
ductor "Giye the engineer his bells"
and he seized the strap that registers
fares, jerlsed it at the rate Of five dollars
per minute till it came out by the roots,
leaving the register hanging by one
screw.
Meanwhile the little fat sailor was
coming like duck in foot race, wav-
ing his handkerchief and shouting:
ship ahoy!" as if the fate of Robinson
Cruso would be his should that car es-
cape. The passengers could do moth
ing for laughing. The conductor was
vainly striving to suppress the excited
tar aboard, and he was calling upon his
eyes TO be blasted ard his timbers 10 bf
shivercd il he didn't scuttle the craft
if she didn't come to and rescue his
mate. He savore, too, that he was be-
ing marooned, for he wanted oil to give
the fat one 4 hand. He was released
ut the next corner, where he STOOD
shaking his fist while he called the con-
ductor bloody pirate till his putiinC
consort came alongside. Then they
went rolling toward the police station
to see what the 'chief commodore
would afford them in the way OF ven
geance.-Detroit Free Press.

the gold industry in the other. The
