POISON FINDING
ST|RS ENTIRE
COUNTY
Or. Everhart's Report Causes
Feeling to Run High Against
Young Bridegroom.

Or Edgar Everhart's startling re-
port that enough strychnine had been
found in the flour and biscuits ana
lyzed by him TO accomplish a whole
sale murder was submitted to the
jeff Davis County officials Wednes-
day.
The high feeling that had followed
the mysterious illness of members of
the family of Jesse G. Ross, Of Halle
hurst, and the subsequent arrest Of
Patrick Ursery, a prominent young
man who only a short time before
had married the daughter of Ross,
instantly was revived and the case
again became the subject on every
tongue
Ursery is in Jail In Appling County.
In the face of the accusations of at
tempted murder and the sensational
discovery Of large quantities Of
strychnlne in the food eaten by the
Ross family, Ursery continued his
steadfast declarations Of innocence
on Wednesday.
Ross and members OF his family
were taken suddenly i'll after eating
some biscuits a short time after the
y
Ursery. Suspicious circumstances
caused the arres. of Ursery. He was
said TO have bought some strychnine
few days before, explaining that
the possums were eating his chick
eng
Atidavits Prepared.
AfiidaVits also are said to have
been prepared charging that he was
acting in peculiar manner about
a sack of flour I'm the Ross home.
The prosecuting officials OF Jeff Da-
Wis County are greatly wrought up
over what they regard as an attempt
at wholesale poisoning, and. are de-
termined to develop a strong case
against the suspected young man.
The first step will be in authorizing
a further analysis of the flour from
which the biscuits were made in an
effort to ascertain Just the quantity
OF stryChnine there. The quantita-
tive analysis viii require several days,
and win not be undertaken by DR..
Everhart until definite word Is re-
ceived from Hazlehurst.
DR.. w. NJ. Girtman. of Hazlehurst,
brought the biscuits and -four to At
lanta Tuesday and returned with DR..
EVerharts report in the evening. He
said before leaving that lie would take
up with the officials the matter Of
authorizing a cumulative analysis.
Stands by Husband.
This step will be taken to forestall
the defense that a small amount Of
the poison might accidentally have
been spilled in the sack. If quaint
ties are found mixed throughout the
upper portion of the sack of flour it
will dispose Of the contention that the
poison was there by accident In the
, belief of Dr. Girtman and his asso-
Ciates.

n ERP ICIDE

The man who wears toupee does
not like it, but has the courage of his
convictions.
Nature never intended that the top
of the head should be left entirely with
out protection. A bald head is very
susceptible to contraction of colds and
neuralgia. Wearing an artificial top
piece counteracts this tendency and,
aside from the Improvement in the per-
sonal appearance. Is amply justified,
How much better il would have been
had the man, now chronically bald and
wearing a toupee, but realized earlier In
life the approaching danger and de-
voted little regular attention to his
hair. which would have saved it,
Loss of hair in nine cases out Of ten
is unnecessary, being due to dandruff
and the germ that causes II. This germ
must be kept out of the scalp and the
accommodations of dandrun checked.
Then the hair will not fall out, hut in
stead win grow as nature intended.
