Trenton, Tenn, Aug. IL. Hon. W.
s. Coulter, SIS years old, and his SON,
Harry Coulter, about 23 years old, Of
Dyer, we're both shot and instantly
killed here this afternoon by J. A. Al
ford, hardware merchant Of Rutherford.
The killing occurred at the Mobile 4
Ohio depot as the Coulters we're about
TO board the north bound afternoon
train for their home, few miles north
Of here, in Dyer. The affair is greatly
deplored by the friends Of both the
Coulter and the Afford families, and Is
the outcome Of series Of family trou-
bles extending over number Of months.
The Coulters are well known and prom
inent citizens Of the county, as are the
Affords. w. s. Coulter was considered
TO be one 81 the leading members of the
Gibson County bar, and his son, Harry,
was likewise fast making a record Of
being highly talented young lawyer.
Mr.. Coulter, Sri, was possibly one Of
the wealthiest citizens in the county.
The morning train from the north
brought a large crowd OF people from
the upper sections Of this county to at
tend the present term Of the Circuit
Court here. With this crowd came the
two CouIters and j. A. Afford. There
was no intimation Of any trouble until
this afternoon. The "dinky'' from the
north came into the station. Afford,
who had evidently left on the south
bound train, arriving some thirty min
utes before, and had boarded the north
bound train at FruitIand, few miles
south Of Trenton, stepped off with 9TH
or passengers, and ii few moments
began to empty an automatic pistol at
the father.
Upon his falling to the ground. Afford
turned and directed his fire at the young
man, who was ia the act Of climbing
into a day coach. Having shot the
young man down, he turned and fired
q last shot into the PROSTATE form Of
the older man, and then calmly replaced
his weapon ID his hip pocket There
were nine shots fred, seven taking el-
feet; three Of them struck the young
man and four the older one. All shots
completely pierced the body Of each.
Immediately after the shooting Afford
called out that he would give himself
up, and ID a few minutes surrendered

CHESTNUT STREET THEATRE
SPLENDID OFFERINGS

The mid-winter offering of the Or
pheum Players. brings with it, the sue
cess that every day is evidenced by the
crowds to welcome the weekly change Of
program.
The revival of The Deep Purple, THAT
fascinating play of Paul Armstrong and
Wilson Minor, fully equalled the first
production. "Dr. Bill" an extraordinary
farcica1 comedy, adapted from the French
of Albert Care, by the famous author,
Hamilton Aide, gives every assurance of
the greatest kind of success for this week.
The audiences are kept in roars of laugh
ter from start to finish, and the fun con-
tinues throughout the three acts. For
the week of February "a, the brilliant
comedy drama called NANCY & Co." is
another most delightful work, being taken
from the German of the great writer
Rosen, and produced in this country by
the late Augustin DAILY, at his theatre in
New York, scoring a run to crowded
houses for over a hundred consecutive
performances.
Among the other early announcements
is the production of "The Senator, -
''Barbrra's Millions" ''The Man from
Home" etc, etc,
During the last week in the month, be-
ginning next Monday, the Orpheum Play
ers will present the famous comedy,
Nancy & Company" adapted from the
German of Rosen by the late Augustin
DAILY, and-which enjoyed protracted run
at Days Theatre, in New York, late in
the Sos. The play is entirely worthy of
this powerful cast; and although it is
many years since Nancy & Company
has been offered to the public, it is just
as fresh a piece of writing and just as
clever series of situations as when the
great Mr.. Daily placed it before apprecia-
tive New York audiences. In adapting
the play, Mr.. DAILY changed the location
from Berlin to New York, and in many
other ways brought it right up to the
minute, as it were. AS presented by the
Orpheum Players with some fifteen
people in the cast, Nancy & Company
will prove to be one of the big successes
of the season. adv.
