SHOT TO DEATH DURING QUARREL IN A SALOON
Victim Had Served a Term in Penitentiary for Killing a Negro.
(Special to The Herald.)
SOMERSET, Ky., May 11.--In a difficulty between Otis Paule and Charles Brown in Wayne's saloon, on the east side of the Public Square, Brown opened fire on Paule with a revolver, fired a number of shots in rapid secession, three or four of which took effect in Paule's face and body. He staggered from the saloon and fell in the street. He was carried to the Somerset Sanitarium, where he died a few hours later. Brown is a bartender in Wayne's saloon. Paule has been mixed up in difficulties before, and some few years ago was sentenced to the penitentiary for killing a negro at McKinney, several miles north of Somerset, and he was also a participant in a shooting affray at the Liberty fair a few years ago, in which a woman was accidently shot and killed.

ODIE PAUL KILLED. -- Charles Brown shot Odie Paul to death at Somerset Thursday night. The men had quarreled and Brown, who runs a saloon, ordered Paul not to come to his place of business again. He did not obey the order and when he returned, Brown shot him four times. Paul was taken to an infirmary where he died in a few hours. Mr. Paul lived for many years at McKinney, where he and his father conducted a monument business. He married there and is survived by a wife and son of 10 years. The remains were brought to McKinney and interred Friday afternoon. It will be remembered that Mr. Ed Paul, Odie Paul's father, fell from a window of the St. Asaph Hotel and was killed.
