MAN IS MURDERED
 ON HIS SICK BED
Tom Wood Meets Death At
 White Plains
WYATT IS ARRESTED
Men Have Never Had a Difference So Far As Woods Wife Was in Adjoining
 Room

Anniston, June ,21.-(Special.)-I ter developments have not shed a ray of light on the alleged murder of Tom Wood, a well known planter of White Plains, who is said to have been shot by Jim Wyatt, a young man about 22 years of age while he lay sick on his bed at his home, Tuesday evening, be- tween and o'clock, and the killing will likely develop into a mystery as deep as that which surrounded the kill ing of Looney Humphries near that place about a year ago.
 Insofar as known the two men had never had a difference and the only thing which seems to offer an explan- ation of the deadly act Is the alleged fact that Wyatt was addicted to drink and under the influence of liquor wher the killing occurred. Armed with g shotgun, he is said to have walked into the home of the sick man, and upor being told where he was by Mrs. Wood he walked into the room. fired the gun into the mans right breast, then calmly walked out past the wife of the man whom he had killed.
 Hearing the gunshot and becoming alarmed 1t is said that Mrs. Wood and her young adopted daughter immedi- ately ran toward the bed chamber, where they found the dying man with the ugly wound in his side and the bed clothes on fire. The flames were quickly smothered, but the man expired immediately, the bullets having pene- trated his heart. He is said to have utter ed but two words after being shot, Jim Wyatt"
 The killing occurred on what is known as the old Teague place. Wyatt fled immediately after accomplishing his purpose and he was arrested this morning on the road toward White Plains by Constable Bob Poland and Lew Champion. who turned him over to Sheriff C. T. Brooks and Chief Deputy Shepperd, who hurried from this city to the scene in response to long distance telephone message. They brought the prisoner back to this city and he is now confined in the Calhoun county jail.
 Wyatt has just recently returned from Oklah oma, where he has been for some time. His victim was about 50 years of age and was regarded as one of the most substantial citizens of that section of the county.
