Playful Prank Kills His Friend Lonnie Roberts, an employee of the Lancaster Cotton bfills, died early Friday morning as the result of a prank played upon him by Bennie Humphries at the cotton mill early on Thursday morning. Humphries who is but 20 years of age caused a rupture of the intestines by the UBe of an air hose. The evidence as taken at a coroner's inquest which was held on Friday morning at the Adams Funeral Home showed that the two employees were endeavoring to have some fun when the incident occurred that resulted in a tragedy. At .the time the incident occurred it was not thought that his condition was serious. He complained of a pain in his side, but walked to his home at 209 Second street. Later his condition became critical and he was taken to the Lancaster hospital in the Mackey company ambulance where an o^er^bon was performed, but he passed away early Friday morning. He was .conscious for the greater portion of the night and told friends of the manner of . the accident. The coroner's jury brought in a ( verdict that the deceased came, to his death as the result of an air hose; being used forcibly by Bennie Humphries and the latter was arrested on a charge of murder. At the coroner's inquest but two witnesses among the employees testified. Neither of these saw what occurred but heard the men talking. Mr; McManus, the foreman in that department testified that Mt. Roberts told him at the hospital that the incident .occurred in a spirit of frolic. ?Lancaster New^. t ? > Ja$k Dean, 26, textile worker at jConcord^ ?1.
