STORIES CONFLICT
 IN MURDER CASE
Shooting of T. K. Stubble- field Occurred at the
 BrumbelO Home

Jasper. October 21.-(Special) )-Dayis X Fite and Col. w T. McElroy are counsel for the defense in the Stubbleied murder case, which happened last Thursday
 As will be remembered Tolbert K. Stub blefield brother of c. W. Stubbefeld, tax assessor was shot and killed by Mrs. Jennie Brumbelo, wife of the Rev. w. L. Brumbelo.
 The reports leading up to the unfortu- nate affair are, as usual in such cases, conflicting.
 The shooting occurred at the home of the Rev. and Mrs. Brumbelo and par Tor rifle was the weapon used, only one shot being fired, which took effect about the collar bone, severing large artery and death resulted from loss of blood within about 30 minutes. He made a statement about how it occurred to the effect that he went to the Brumbelo home on invitation of Mrs. Brumbelo. Mrs. Brumbelo denies that she gave him any such invitation to come and says she had never spoken to him more than a half dozen words in her life.
 However this may have been, the un- disputed facts are: the dead man wenf to the home of the Brumbelos and had just entered the house through the back door when the husband was heard at the front door, having walked home rom Kansas. three miles away. About this time the light in the house was blown out by whom is not known. The nus band asked to know what that meant and the wife raised an alarm. Stub- blefield at this juncture left the mousse and went away, firing his pistol two or three times It is said that he was drink ing and after getting off short distance from the house turned around and went back, striking a match as he was com ing through the gate. Mrs. Brumpeio. gun in hand stepped out upon the porch, telling her husband to stay pack Una. she would attend to him.
 As Stubblefield walked up to the porcil she fired on him, with the resultSalfeaoy stated. Several people lived near and the calls of the wounded man soon brought help and he was carried 10 tue home of his mother, a snort dlseaiiee away where he soon died.
 The dead man had in one Of his pock- cts a piece of cardboard with Wrltlhs on both sides. His friends claim thls card contains her consent for him to call upon her. She emphatically denies writing anything to him.
