Prominent Indiana Mason the
Victim of a Mysterious
Shooting Affair.
Three Shots Are Fired, All the
Bullets Taking Effect in
the Mans Head.
Retains Consciousness for a Time
and Tells a Strange Story
Of the Crime.

INDIANAPOLIS, Dec. 28.-William Fl.
Smyfhe, grand secretary of the Masonic
order of Indiana, was shot and prob
ably fatally wounded at noon in his Of.
fee in the Masonic temple. The shoot.
ing is mystery. The story told by
Mr.. Smythe, who retained conscious
ness for several minutes after the
shooting, is that blonde woman en-.
tered his Office and asked to be allowed
to use the telephone. AS he was busy
he told her he could not be bothered at
the time. Without further words, he
declares. the woman drew revolver
and fred at him. He felt the sting of
the bullet but did not realize what had
happened until after the woman had
made her escape.
The police quickly reached the scene
and threw line of patrolmen and d, .
tectives about the Masonic temple, but
no trace of the mysterious wom4n was
found.
Lewis A. Coleman, an attorney who
had gone to the Masonic temple to
transact business, discovered Smythe,
who, he says, was lying on the floor
half way between his desk and the
door of his Office in a pool of blood.
An examination showed that three
shots had been fired, each Of which
took effect in Smythe's head. The
bullets have been removed, but it is
not thought Smythe can recover.
AS no trace of the woman had been
found up to a late hour, the theory was
advanced that Smythe had attempted
self destruction. Members of his fam.
lily, however, declare that this suspicion
is groundless. .
