KILLING AT
cAMAReo
Greene Cole Shot BY Claude SaIyer
and Instantly Killed. Cause OF
Shooting Unknown.

Claude Salyer, farmer, and form
er school teacher, shot and instant-
ly killed Greene Cole at Salyer's
home, one mile South of Camargo,
last night about eight o'clock.
Salyer was Coles employer and
the two young men had been life
long friends. They had spent the
afternoon together in town, going to
Salyer's home about an hour before
the unfortunate occurrence.
Marion Martin, farmer, living
near Jacksonville, was the only eye
witness to the affair. Driving up to
the Salyer house and seeing the two
men clinched, is reported to have
said he thought it was only friend
ly bout, until, it is said, he heard
Salyer exclaim: ''He is trying to rob
mew and it was then that Salyer is
alleged to have drawn his pistol and
fired twice, only one shot taking eff
feet, entering Coles right side and
finding its way through the mans
body, lodging Just under the ribs.
The second shot grazed his chest
and set fire 20 his clothing, which
was still burning when others ar
rived on the scene and extinguished
the flames. ~ <,
Chief Upton was notified and i'm
mediatelv left the city with Deputy
Sheriff James Scobee. Salyer Of
fered no resistance and was placed
unde~ arrest and brought 70 this city
where he was locked up in the coun-
ty jail.
Salyer is the so,. of II. II. Salyer
and a brother of Ellis and ID. B. SAL
Yer, of this county. He is a sub
stantial farmer, owning the land adj
joining the sulphur well on the JEFF
fersonville road, and. has a wife and
two children. The dead man was
removed to his home in the neighbor-
hood of the killing and it is likely
that his funeral will be held there
tomorrow. Cole leaves a wife and
four small children to mourn his
loss.

GERMANY TO
ACCEPT TERMS
And Has So Notified the Allied
Guvernments-WiII Probably
Sign Thursday or Friday.

The German government has for
mally communicated its willingness
to sign the peace terms uncondition-
ally, and has so notified the French
foreign office. The signing Of the
peace treaty is not likely to take
place before Thursday or Friday.
The German note of acceptance, it
is said, is couched in such language
that it maintains the German posi-
ton that the peace conditions are
ga peace of violence" The Ger
mans, it is declared generally, will
observe the clauses of the treaty
only with a knife at their throats,
and point to the deliberate destruc-
ton of the German ships at Scapa
Flow as a symbol and warning. 1t is
generally thought that safety can be
found only in the military partner
ship of the victors. Germany SIM
ply signed because she had to-that
was all. Even now it appears that
the spirit of militarism remains un-
broken in Germany.

WORK GOES BEGGING

Several citizens have complained
to us about the condition of the DON
aldson pike, and from inquiry we
learn their complaints are well
founded. We have seen Mr.. w. HI.
Canaan, the County Road Engineer,
and he says he is very anxious to
make a contract with some one to
repair it; that he has advertised
twice for bids and received none,
all farmers being so busy and labor
so scarce, but that just as soon as
he can secure some reliable person
to undertake it, he intends to do all
he can on this pike with the limited
funds available.

this county to make her home on
her husbands farm, where she lived
uninterruptedly and where she ended
her days.

sons, Judge w. 0. Chenault, of this
