DRANK POISON IN DARKNESS
Amateur Photographer the Victim Of
Momentary Eoraetfuiness-His
Pathetic Message.

A tragic story of an amateur photog-
rapher's death by misadventure in his
darkroom was told at an inquest at
Portsmouth, an English exchange
says.
The facts are few, but by their very
brevity acquire more dramatic char
acter. Erwin ]. T. Webb was WELL
known solicitor in Portsmouth, and
one of his favorite hobbies was anna
teur photography. He had fitted up a
darkroom in the cellar of his house
and had gone down there to develop
some plates.
He opened bottle of beer in the
cellar and poured out glass to drink
while at work. Becoming absorbed in
his task, he mistook the beer and put
into it some cyanide of potassium. For
a time he went on working, ignorant
of his mistake.
Then he remembered the beer and
drank some of it.
Instantly he realized the terrible
mistake he had made and while life
was still his, snatched up scrap of
Photographic paper and on it scrib-
bled a message to his wife. It was
read at the inquest and ran as fol-
lows:
I'm semi-darkness have made awful
mistake.
Must have poured cyanide into ale.
"Only q few seconds to live.
Cannot. call.
God help you. my pet.
brain reels.
Tell -"
The writing toward the end Of the
message was almost undscipherable;
After writing this hurried message,
Mr.. Webb apparently tried to crawl
upstairs. but he fell dead at the foot
Of the stairs, where later his wife
found him.
The medical evidence went to show
that after taking the poison Mr.. Webb
would lose the power Of locomotion
and would not be able to call out.
though he would live long enough to
be able to write the note found. It
was the testimony that he was of
cheerful temperament and had no
financial or business worry. .
A verdict of death by misadventure
was returned.
Mr.. Webb was one Of the best
known solicitors practicing in the
local courts and was known through
out large part of Hampshire. He
was native of the Isle of Wight.

lions.
This is the first time any federal court
has passed directly on restriction In
tended TO deprive the negro as such of
the suffrage. In Maryland the purpose
to defy the federal Constitution has
been obvious and unconcealed. Other
states have been more circumspect, Inn
posing a grandfather qualification only
as a temporary device or selecting tests
which do not follow the lines OF race or
color, although used in practice almost
exclusively against the negroes. The
Southern states generally have depre-
Gated Maryland's rash experiments, on
the ground that if the question got into
the federal courts Maryland would lose
and their own constitutions might then
have to be Overhauled. II is easy enough
to- impose suffrage qualification which
will penalize ignorance and 1rresp0nsl-
bilsty. But the grandfather clause Is
un-AmeTican and unconstitutional. 1t
should be abandoned everywhere, and
Judge Morriss decision encourages the
hope that 1t will be replaced in all
states which want to restrict the suf-
frage. by qualifications applying equally
to white and colored citizens.
