Three Bullets in Body.
Dr. McPheeters Glasgow, who arrived
At the scene of the tragedy soon after it
occurred, said tonight:
"1 found the body of Mr. Carmack on
the right aide of Seventh avenue as one
walks to Church street from Union street.
He was lying with his head facing north
and with his right arm under his head.
'His pistol was Just out of reach of his
right hand, and the weapon was point
ing south. An evening paper was lying
near bis left hand, which held a crushed
Ktump of a cigar. I Immediately sum
moned an ambulance and had the body
carried to the undertaking establishment
of T. M. Dorris. The body was without
rVcns of llffe when found by me and ap
peared to have been so for about flvo
minutes.
There were three bullets In the body
of Mr. Carmack. One entered the left
aide about two and one-half Inches
below the nipple, and but a short dis
tance below the heart, and stopped
short distance from the right side.
under the skin, crossing the median
line of the anatomy.
Fatal Wound in N'eck.
"Another bullet entered the left
shoulder and lodged about 4H Inches
below the right nipple, under the skin.
Both of these wounds were clean.
"The third bullet which I conceive to
ne the fatal one was in the neck. The
wound was 1H Inches to the left of the
median line, and one inch below the
hair line on the neck, posteriorly. The
bullet entered the neck and made an
exit from the mouth of the deceased.
It was found on the street, under his
tongue, at the exit of the wound. Two
front teeth were broken loose. I think
two bullets were fired from Carmack's
pistol."
The body of Mr. Carmack was pre
pared for burial and removed to the
home of Frank Lander, general man
ager of the Tennesseean and will be
taken to Columbia, his former home.

The combatants were evidently very

Mrs. Bates thought at first that the
animal was an otter, as she saw it come
out of the water, but a second look re

sons were out in the field working. Her
three pet terriers started after the in-1
truder and tormented him so that he
sought refuge in the nearest tree. Mrs.
Bates started for the bouse to secure
rifle, but the dogs would not stay by
their post unless she was there to urge
them on. She then picked up an apron
ful of stones and started a battery on
bruin.
The third stone bit him In the head
and down came the huge form to the
ground, where it lay without a struggle.
Mrs. Bates then rushed out to tne iiem.
where her sons were working, and called
them In. and bruin was soon skinned and
his meat stored away for the Winter.

Kentucky Favored in Berea
College Decision.
TWO ; . JUSTICES DISSENT
Coeducation of Blacks and Whites
Need Not Be Tolerated Harlan
Criticises Penal Provision
of Law Involved.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 9 In deciding
the case of Berea College versus the
State of Kentucky favorable to the state,
the Supreme Court of the United States
today held that the states of the Union
may constitutionally legislate to prevent
the coeducation of the white and black
races. The case was Instituted to test
the validity of the state law of 1904
prohibiting white and black children from
attending the same schools.
The higher state court took the posi
tion that the white and black races are
naturally antagonistic, and that the
forced separation of the children of the
two is in the line of preservation of
peace.
Two Dissent.
The opinion of the Supreme Court was
handed down by Justice Brewer and af
firmed the finding of both the Kentucky
Circuit Court and the Court of Appeals.
Justices Harlan end Day dissented.
Justice Brewer's opinion dealt entire
ly with corporations as affected by the
Kentucky state law, and did not consid
er the question of its applicability to
individuals. Proceeding upon the theory
that a state had complete control over
corporations as Its own creations, he
construed the law of 1904 as in effect an
amendment to the charter of Berea Col
lege. Responding to some of Justice Harlan's
statements. Justice Brewer said:
"There is no force in the suggestion
that the statute, although clearly separa
ble, must stand or fall as an entirety on
the ground that the Legislature would
not have enacted one part unless It
could reach all. That the Legislature of
Kentucky desired to separate the teach
ing of white and colored children may be
conceded, but it by no means follows
that it would not have enforced the
separation so far as It could do so, even
though it could not have made it effec
tive under all the circumstances."
Contending that it. would prove imprac
ticable and unsatisfactory to separate
