Chickasha; Physician Believes
Result Poison.
OFFICERS INVESTIGATE
AND WILL HOLD INQUEST
Body Brought to chckasha; Officials
Find Empty Toilet Water Bottle
On Premises, Believes No
Bearing On Case.

If the belief of local doctors and
Officers is borne out by later devel
cpments, Chickasha had on the eve
of constitutional prohibition the first
local case Of death from drinking
poisoned booze probably wood al
cohol.
Tfis case is the result of the death
Of J. 7. Sparks, a flrmer who lived
near Tabler and who died late yes
terday evening near his home, fol
lowing trip to Chickash
He returned to Tabler on the eve
ming Santa Fe train, according ITO in
formation given to the Grady county
Officers. He lived about mile from
the town and started to walk to his
home, but fell before reaching there,
according to the reports and passed
away at tie roadside
Dr.. w. H. Cook Of this city was
summoned as soon as the man be
came critically i'll, but Sparks was
dead before his arrival The physi
clan stated to officers that it was
his opinion that the man died from
the effects of poison.
J. Roy Orr, assistant. county attor-
ney, and D'Arthur Wilson, deputy
sheriff, went to Tabler this morning
and made an investigation Mr.. Orr
stated this afternoon that in search
Of the premises they found an emp
ty bc,tlc that had contained toilet
water, but in the opinion of Officers
the possible drinking Of the bottles
contents by Sparks had nothing tQ
do with his death as, if he drank the
contents of that bottle, he did s.
before his trip to Chlckasha.
1t is the theory of local officers
that the man procured some beyer
age while in Chickasha yesterday
evening that caused his death.
The body will be brought to the |
Anderson morgue this afternoon
where an inquest will be held. 1t is
possible that post mortem exam
ination will be held.

In spite Of the fact that the visl

showed much greater speed and kept
the ball bouncing around their own

probably would have piled up close
