Dead in Front of Store.

Spartanburg, Dec. 16.-W. D..
Mitchell. aged manager of Whitlock's S
store, four miles from SpartanDurg'
was found lying dead in pool OF
blood in the front of the store at an
early hour this morning. He had
been shot through the heart with a
shotgun and evidently had been dead
some hours. The theory of the othcer
working On the case is that he was
shot about 9 o'clock last night. His
purse, supposed to have contained
considerable money, was taken from
the body and the pockets had been
disturbed. Mr.. Mitchell slept in the
rear of the store, taking his meals at
a home nearby. Last night young
man called at home near the store
and incurred as to where he could
find the manager of the store, stating
that he wished to purchase some
gasoline. He proceeded to the store
and a few minutes later loud report
was heard by neighbors, but it was
presumed that a passing automobile
had burst tire. Today those who
heard the report are confident that it
was the report of the shotgun they
heard. Mr.. Mitchell was sixty-eight
wears old and unmarried.
All efforts to trace the subsequent
movements of the unknown young
man who went to the store last night
have thus far been unsuccessful.

Spartanburg the Scene.
Difficulty With Boy Ends Fatally.
Aged Man Found Dead in
Front of Store.

Spartanburg, Dec. 16.-Munroe n.
Inman, well known citizen of this
city, was shot and almost instantly
killed early this morning by his
twenty-one-year-old son, Manning,
following a personal difficulty be-
tween father and son. Mrs. lnman
testified at the inquest this afternoon
that she heard her husband, who was
in a room with his son, declare that
he was going to kill the young man.
A moment later, she said, the son at
tempted to escape from the house. his
father pursuing him with a butcher
knife. The son found the door locked,
Mrs. Inman said, and turning recelv-
ed a cut on the arm. Almost immedl-
ately, Mrs. Inman testified, she heard
pistol shot and ran into the room,
where she found her husband dead on
the floor and his son, Manning, stand
ing nearby. A pistol was lying on
the bed in the room. Young 1nman
was placed in the county jail, but ap-
plication for his release On bail will
be made at once by his attorney.
The young man has made no state
ment and nothing is known concern
ing the caEse of the tragedy. The
dead man was formerly connected%ln
a responsible capacity with the Cow
pens Manufacturing Company and
later was travelling with a prominent
shoe concern. Manning Inman has
borne an excellent reputation mere
and has been employed by local
mercantile concern.

TAR AND FEATHERS.
Protest Against Use of Hun
Brings Rough Treatment.

Jacksonville, Dec 19.-John D.
Bischoff, real estate dealer of this
city, securely bound and gagged and
covered with coat of tar and feath-
ers, was dumped from an automobile
at $40 o'clock tonight on one OF
Jacksonville's busiest downtown
street intersections.
Across .Bischoff's chest was sign
reading Herr John Bischoff, Hun.
A curious crowd gathered around
Bischoff and he was finally placed in
another car, taken to the police sta
ton and then sent to his home. He
refused to make any statement.
Bischoff was the subject of an at
tack in a Jacksonville afternoon pa
per on Saturday in connection with a
letter which the paper published
from Bischoff in which the latter OBJ
jected to the use Of the word Hun
in the columns of the paper and
threatened to withdraw his adver-
tising matter unless the paper ceas-
ed calling the Germans Huns.
The machine which dropped Blscn-
off at the street intersection is said
to have contained four masked men.
License numbers on the car were con-
cealed. 1t slowed down long enough
to push the tar and feathered victim,
practically nude, with the exception
of the feathers, into the street ana
then speeded up again and was lost
in the maze of traffic.

FATAL TO A. n. BARBER.
Shot While Trying to Enter a Home,
1t Is Said.

Sumter, Dec. 18.-A. H. Barber, a
sewing machine agent, who was shot,
it is alleged, early yesterday morning
bv ;Mr. and Mrs. H. D. Brunson, when
he tried, it is said, to enter their
country home about two miles from
Sumter, died at local hospital this
afternoon. The trouble arose over
a warrant which had been previously
sworn out by Mr.. Bruson, charging
Barber with disturbing the peace of
his home. Barber was later released
on bond. And he later went, 1t is
alleged, to the Brunson home. For
some time, it is charged, he tried to
make a forcible entry into the Brun-
son home, but the occupants had lock-
ed every door and had warned him
not to enter as he would be shot, 1t
is reported. He succeeded in break
ing the lock to the fro44t door, it is
said. AS he entered the home he was
met with a volley of shots, five be-
ing fired by Mrs. Brunson with pis-
tol, and one by her husband with a
rifle, it is alleged. Three shots took
effect.
Barber was from Lumberton, n. c.,
and his remains will be taken there
for burial. The inquest over the body
has not been held, although a jury
was empanelled and viewed the re-
mains. Counsel for the Brunson fam
ily asked a continuance of the in
quest until next Thursday. 1t was
granted.

Mr.. Nutall, who has been a chemis-

college professor. Accordingly, he
has laid aside the cap and gown and
hase become a salesman.
And I am making three times

dren to feed and keep warm. AS a
teacher" Mr.. Nutall continued, 'in

taught night school; was dead to the
world next day; taught summer
school during the vacation period,
and during the two weeks which

r. A Buckheister Killed.

Spartanburg, Dec. 17.-B. A.
Buckheister, superintendent of the
street railway lines of the South
Carolina Light, Power and Railway
Company, of this city, was shct and
almost instantly killed her tonight
shortly after o'clock by George W.
Putnam, a former employee Of the
company. The shooting occurred IN
East Main street at the railway
crossing. Four shots were fired, all
of which are said to have entered
Buckheister's body, the fatal shot en-
tering the brain just over the eye.
Putnam was arrested almost immedl-
ately. He was transferred tonight
to the county Jail.
The police say there has been i'll
feeling between Putnam and the
superintendent of the street railway
line since the days of the street rail
way strike more than year ago, at
which time Putnam was an employe
of the company and among the men
men who struck and were never re-
instated, it is alleged. During the
same difficulty it was recalled by the
police tonight, Mr.. Buckheister had
some difficulty with a little son of
Mr.. Putnam, as a result of which both
Buckheister and Putnam were fined
in the police court.
