OLD MANS DEATH
LAID TO FAMILY
DAUGHTER AND SON-IN-LAW
HELD IN GREENVILLE.
Bail Not Yet Asked
Coroner to Continue Investigation in
Greenville Later in the
Week.
Bail Not Yet Asked

Greenville, June 1O.-As result
of two day Investigation by Sheriff
Rector and Coroner Vaughn, and on
a warrant charging murder in con-
nection with the death early We'd
nesday morning of Charles M. Ship
man, 65, near Chick Springs, Ship
mans son-in-law, w. w. Taylor, 35,
and Shipman's daughter, Mrs. Taylor,
have been taken into custody. Tay-
lor is in the county jail today and
his wife in the detention home.
The warrant was sworn put by Buel
Shipman, of Woodside, brother of the
dead man, who stoutly denied that
his brother was ever at any time
guilty of a statutory offense with
which Taylor charged him. Buel
Shipman told officers that he has
learned from a reliable source that
threats had been made against his
brothers life previous to the finding
Of his lifeless body hanging to low
cedar tree in the rear of Taylor's
home
Shipman's body was found in that
situation early Wednesday morning,
and it at first appeared that he had
hanged himself. An official investi-
cation was started, which developed
the fact, admitted by both, that Tay-
lor and his wife had had trouble
with Shipman on the day preceding
the tragedy. Taylor at that time says
that he ordered his father-in-law to
leave his home, where he had been
living, and to leave the state, and he
swore out a warrant for Shipman,
charging him with a statutory Of
fense. Both Taylor and his wife,
however, stoutly deny that they have
any knowledge whatever as to how
Shipman came to his death.
Coroner Vaughn impaneled a jury
yesterday and started an inquest into
the case. After the testimony Of DR..
H. L. Brockman, of Greer, had been
taken, the inquest was suspended un-
til next Wednesday morning, at
which time it is to proceed at 10
o'clock in Greer. DR.. Brockman testi-
fed before the coroner's jury that
Shipman came to his death by strang-
ulation. However, parts of the mans
vital organs have been sent to the
state laboratories in Columbia for
testing to ascertain if he was poison
ed.
Officers advance the theory that
Shipman could not have tied the rope
to the cedar tree limb from which
he was hanged, because his left arm
was paralyzed and was of no service
to him. They also say that other
branches were withia few inches OF
the body as it hung from the tree and
that a man in a death struggle would
have reached out and helped himself
by these means.
Both the sheriff and the coroner
stated today that they plan to pro-
ceed with their Investigations in the
hope of bringing new evidence to
light before the inquest is resumed
next Wednesday. No ecorts to OBJ
tain release on bonds have yet been
made by the Taylors, though they
have retained the law firm of Goth
ran, Dean & Wyche to represent
them.
The case, regarded as nothing un-
usual at the outset, is growing more
interesting to the public, and several
hundred persons viewed the body OF
shipman before the coroner permitted
| its burial.

Eugene Miller says that compar-
ing his sales the week before the Car
nival and that of the week during the
Carnival, his sales of gasoline and oil
alone fell off fully rs per cent. During
the day it was hard to get to his place
on account of the carnival, and at night
the streets were roped off SO that his
business place could not be reached at
all. Oh, yes, the carnival was good
thing for the community. Ask the bu-
siness men, who do business where the
carnival was located and see what they
think of it.

Reprinted from the Milwaukee Journal
Most folk have an excessively exag-
gerated idea of the time it takes for
trees to grow-to become marketable
timber. Hence the impression, all too
common, that public forestry cannot
weld results for hundred years or
more.
The American Lumberman publishes
an authentic account from Alabama
of a second growth pine tree, which,
cut when 33 years old, was "A inches
in diameter and produced 403 feet of
lumber. The article goes on to state
that 40 acres of trees like this would
! at the end of thirty-three years pro-
| duce gross income of $4,000, year
| ~ average of 363.60. Nor is the case
of the Alabama tree unusual. Right
| here in Milwaukee are hard maple
trees which, despite the fact that as
phalt pavement on one side and ce-
ment walks on the other have for
years retarded their growth by depriv-
ing them of due amount of food and
drink, have nevertheless attained a
/ diameter of Is inches since they were
planted thirty years ago.
The Massachusetts, Forestry assoc
citation recently estimated that the av-
erage acre, planted to white pine,
would at the end of fifty years possess
a stumpage value-which is the price
that it would command from lumber
man for the privilege of cutting the
timber for market-of 5000. This
means that in fifty years the stump
| age value of 40 acres planted to white
pine would be $4,000 and the stump
age value of 100000 acres would be
$780, 100000 During his recent visit
to Milwaukee, Col. Greeley, chief for
ester of the United States, was ques-
/ toned about the accuracy of the Mas
sachusetts figures and in reply stated
that the stumpage value of the aver
age acre planted to white pine would
VIC pOOO, HOG dI Clle SITu VI lIIGy years
but at the end of only forty years.
In this connection it is important to
| keep in mind the fact that under mod
ern forestry practice, seedlings are
planted at fixed intervals, thus insur-
ing to each its proper share of sun
shine and food, with the result that
it grows much faster than the average
tree in the forest primeval ever grew
| and faster than the average second
| Growth tree reproduced naturally, like
1.-THE Alabama pine, grows
| All should understand that the
| growth of tree to a size that makes
| it valuable for timber is a matter OF
years, not of centuries, or even gener-
ations. They should realize that sal
liable by-products come from a man
made forest during the growing period
land that in several ways trees growing
upon land that would otherwise be
bare and ugly bring profit indirectly
| They should realize, too, that forests
curb floods, conserve water for power
purposes, prevent soil erosion, enrich
the soil with hunrus, conserve wild life
and attract tourists as nothing else
Idoes, and all this in addition to provid-
ing raw material for many huge in
| dustries, to giving work to thousands
and to supplying mans greatest needs
outside of drink, food and clothing
Once these things are generally under
stood, the demand for reforestation
now quite general, will grow still
stronger and more insistent.

PROBLEMS Of
THE HO ME-
AND F A MIL !
A Talk With Our Wives, Mothers,
and Sisters.
A Simple Cure.

A case reporter by Miss Binzel
seems worthy of the thoughtful con-
sideration of parents generally.
A little fellow of four and half
years, one of the mighty American
host of spoiled children, made a de-
mand of his kindergarten teacher
which she could not grant. Then en-
sued the following dialogue:
h George:-But I'll scream.
Teacher:-Oh, you will?
George:-Yes, / scream very loud.
Teacher:-Oh, do you?
George:-Ye, l howl.
Teacher-Well, over in that cor
ner is a chair for those who howl very
loud You may sit in it if you like.
George took his place in the chair
and proceeded to howl. He did his
best, but no one seemed to pay any at
tention Finally he stopped and came
to the teacher with an expression of
childish amazement.
George:-Does- you head ache?
Teacher:-Oh, no, indeed.
George: -That's strange. When
howl at home it makes Mothers head
ache and she gives me what | want.
AS it turned out, George not only
gave up the attempt but he never re-
peated it. He was cured at least as
far as the school was concerned though
we may suppose he continued to car
ry on at home as before.
| Parents will do we'll to note the two
reasons-for there are two-Why the
teacher won. One was that the lit
| tie fellow was not allowed to have
what he wanted. Indeed, he was not
given even the slightest sign that there
was any chance whatever of such ar
outcome. If the teacher had shown
nervousness or impatience, he woulG
have construed it as a sign of weaken
ing and would have continued his cry
ing until she yielded; and after that
he would have been master and tyrant
at school as at home.
The other reason why the teacher
won is that she did nothing during the
test to arouse his ill-will or hostility
If she had "made fun of him" or be-
come angry and punished him, as most
parents do, he would have continued
through sheer obstinacy. She die
neither; and so his last reason fo1
holding out was taken away from him

ORIGIN OF JAZZ MUSIC

The fascination of jazz music lies in
it's wild barbarity. Jazz was first given
to the world by five negroe musicians
who were playing in carbaret resort
in Southern City. They played with
entire abandon, and the effects they
obtained wer so strange that they at
tracted wide attention. Later they
toured the country on vaudeville cir
cult.
