FRIDAY EVENING. MAR. %, 1907.
afnrdered and Rurned


The identity OF the man whose ehared
and dead body was foundin the smolder-
ing debris after the FIRE which Wednes-
day morning destroyed the stable OF a..
w. King, farmer. living near Dan
vile. has been established. 1t is the
belief of the authorities, who have been
investigating the case, that tho victim
was not burned to death, as was first
thought, but was murdered.
After being killed, it is charged that
his slayers placed the body in the loft of
the stable aud then set FIRE to the build
ing 30 as to make Il appear that he WAS
burned TO death. Richard and Charles
King, colored, are now in Jail at Chat
ham awaiting trisl on the charge OF
having committed the murder.
Ii has been discovered that the dead
man WAS "Babe" Gosney, 4 negro farm
hand and not a white man, as was at
frat susposed.
1t is thought probable that the dead
negro was Knocked in the head in
quarrel over the crap game and then
carried from the negro hut to the loft Of
the stable. The two negroes we're ar
rested Wednesday.
A coroner's jury convened yesterday
and a verdict was returned that Gosney
had met his death rs the result Of being
murdered by the two negroes now under
arrest. The evidence against the men ID
circumstantial.

PLAYED A MEAN JOKE
ON SHORTY

Somebody has played a mean
practical joke on l.. NJ. Watson.
better known as "Shorty',dWatson,
employed in the shipping depart
ment at Holly-Mason Marks Co.
William Johnson, who .ylives at
81 d St, West Grove addition. this
morning found a bottle in Hang
man creek in which was the follow
ing note:
April %, 1907. To whom it may
concern: Whoever finds this bot
tie remember that friend by the
name of Shorty Watson has done a
wonderful deed by taking bath.
Please. write to his friend that
lives at 1880 Desmet av. This is our
last word: Please send the news
to mother that we died game.
Please don't destroy this note"
The police investigated this
morning and found that Mrs. Ella
Brighton lives at 1880 Desmet av.
Watson rooms and boards there.
And he is still among the living,
for it seems that for the past year
he has been home every night and
was home last night.
Watson considers the whole thing
a joke, but said that had no ad
dress been given in the note and ii
had been published without the
facts becoming known, it would kill
his mother, who lives in Lewiston
Idaho.
