KILLING At 4
NEGRO PICNIC
LAST NIGHT
MATTHEW THOMAS, coLoRED,
JANITOR AT FIRST NATIONAL
BANK, SHOOTS AND KILLS
FRANK BUTLER, ALSO COLOR
ED-SELF-DEFEN CLAIMED.

Matthew Thomas. an aged negro,
shot and killed Frank Butler, also
colored, at what is known as Moro
park, a negro resort. on the West Hill
car line. Thomas made his way 20
the city alone and hunted up Night
Watchman VIM. Steele, to whom ne
surrendered, telling Mr.. Steele that
he had shot Butler, as the latter ad-
yanced on him with an open knife.
This part of the negro's story was
partly cOrroborated by the police in
Vestigation which was started soon
after the homicide had been reported.
The coroner will make complete in
Vestigation today.
The negroes gathered at Moro park
yesterday for celebration. Short
ly after IL o'clock the trouble between
Thomas and Butler occurred, and it
was of short duration, according 20
what could be learned up to an early
hour this morning. Butler very quick
ly in the difference between the two
was alleged to have drawn his knife
and started for Thomas. Then the
gun play started.
Captain Hall, OF the night force,
hurried to the park and made an en-
deaYor to round up witnesses for the
coroner's investigation, which is 10

Thomas was locked up at the coun-
ty jail last night pending an inves-
tigation. For some time he has been
porter at the First National bank and
is known as a quiet, inoffensive ne
gro. Previous to his employment at
the bank ne was butler for the fam
lily of William II. Knowles. He has
held his present position for some
years.
Trouble over IS Cents.
The killing OF Butler was the out
come OF a quarrel over Is cents, the
police assert. Butler was "out" that
amount and was making a great time
over his loss, creating much of a dis
turbance. Thomas, who was one OF
the directors" Of the picnic or dance,
went to Butler and informed him he
would have to get outside the en-
closure to fuss. you can't bIlldoZe
me like you did my brother" Butler,
it is claimed, exclaimed, at the same
time whipping out his knife and max
ing lunge after lunge at Thomas, who
walked backwards in an attempt to
avoid trouble. Butler continued 20
advance and slashed at Thomas so
persistently, it is claimed, that the
latter pulled his pistol, shot one time
and Butler fell dead, shot through the
heart.

ECZEMA LODGES IN THE
SKIN
Not a blood disease Cured by
Oil of Wintergreen Com
pound.

For manv years eczema was supposed
to be blood disease and was erron.
eously treated as snch, but now the best
authorities agree that eczema is only a
skin disease and must be cured through
the skin. The eminent skin specialist,
DR.. ID. d. Dennis. first discovered the
eczema germ and his discovery was
quickly taken up in both Germany and
France.
To kill the eczema germ aud at the
same time heal the skin, DR.. Dennis
compounded oil of wintergreen, thymol,
glycerine, elc. The remedy is liquid,
not mere salve, hence it sinks right
into the pores of the skin. Washing
with this oil of wintergreen compound
seems to take the itch away at once
soon the scales drop away and the dis
ease disappears. The prescription has
now been used so long as to have proven
its absolute merit and we do not hesi-
tate to cypress our confidence in d. d.
