w, A. Huffman, aged. tWenty-three
years, Nashville chauffeur, committed
suicide Shortly before seven O'clock
last night BY hanging himself in the
city jail, ,,a,oa ,,,@,c.s !,
Huffman had been arrested but a
few minutes before on a charge of
forgery, upon request of Chief OF De,
tectiveJ Sidabottom, OF Nashville, who
called Chief of Police Bailey Peyton
to tell him that he had reasons to be.
lieve that Huffman had driven load
of ball players to Columbia Chief
Sideboltom's conversation Indicated
that The young man had purchased an
automobile in Nashville and given a
forged check for it.
The arrest was made shortly after
& o'clock by officers Tom Cook and
Gus Lamar who carried the young
man to the station house to await the
arrival of Nashville officers to carry
him back to Nashville. Arrestng Of
fcers say Huffman did not give them
the least trouble. and silently accom-
panied them to the police station
where he was locked up.
Little attention was paid to. the pris
oner after he had been confined in the
cell, aud ii was some thirty miputes
after he had been locked up that Dep
uty Sheriff Ring walked back into the
Jail, where he found the young man
had hanged himself using the chain

life might not be extinct, Officer Ring
Immediately called for assistance. and
several officers went to the scene.
Mayor Cherry was called, and he i'm
mediatelyJ summoned the city physi-
clan, DR., Robert Pillow. 1t was found
that the young man was dead when
his body was discovered Va
81 The young mans feet were on the
floor when he was found and his
knees slightly bent, he could easily
have saved himself from death by
strangulation, by reaching up and
grasping the iron bars just above his
head
Dr. Pillow found that the neck was
not broken, and this has been the
cause of much speculation upon the
part of officers and others who say
the position the body was in when dis
covered. It seemed to be almost in
conceivable how the prisoner could
have Topped the chain about his
throat and then bent his knees in or
ader to strangle himself to death, but
this apparently is the only manner in
which he could have died, lH4
A. negro, confined in a nearby cell
stated that he heard the rafting OF
chains in Huffman's cell, but thought
nothing strange of it, just thought he
was letting down his bunk, and paid
no attention to it, He heard no out
cry of any kind. and had no idea he
was so near a dead man until Ofiicer
Ring came in.
1t was learned that the young man
was a son of George Huffman, street
car motorman in Nashville.
The ball players who were driven
to Columbia by Huffman were shock
ed to learn of his death. They had
heard him say nothing which would
Indicate that he was in trouble.
The body was removed to the under
taking parlors of Ooakes e. Nichols
where it was prepared for burial.
Nashville authorities were Immediate
" notified, and they in turn notified
the young mans parents.

Seasonable weather during the past
few weeks has added a remarkable
growth to the corn crop of Maury
county and although the acreage is
hardly more than fifty per cent OF an
average crop, farmers belive they will
harvest fully seventy-five per cent of
an average crop.
In some sections of the county the
second crop of clover is nearly ready
for cutting, and with seasonable
weather much of this will be saved
within the next few days. Some OF
the big second crops of clover will be
saved for seed this season.
