FORMER DAWSONIAN
TAKES HIS OWN LIFE
ROBT. A. HOGUE SHOT HIM
SELF TWICE NEAR AMERI-
Gus. SECOND ATTEMPT.

News OF the tragic death of Mr.
Robert A. Hogue, at Americas, was
received with deep regret by his
friends in Dawson, where he formerly
lived and was we'll known and popular
as young man.
Mr.. Hogue was for a number OF
years employed as a salesman in the
store of his cousin, Mr.. c. L. Mize.
In more recent years he was frequent
ly a visitor in the city, always genial
and seemingly one of the happiest OF
men. The message that he had taken
his own life was great surprise and
shock to his relatives and friends here.
Mr. Hogue ended his life at the plant
OF the International Agricultural Cor
poration, the body being found there
Thursday morning. He was employed
as night watchman at the plant, and
made his usual rounds at midnight as
shown by the clock record He took
his life in the bathroom OF the plant,
shooting himself twice with SO cali
bre revolver. Three shots were fired
one going through his straw hal and
missing its mark altogether. The
wound caused by either OF the other.
bullets would have brought death
doctors who examined the corpse said
Several years ago Hogue attempted
to take his life by shooting but the
attempt failed, as his bullet went wild
He was sent soon afterward to a san
itarium where after undergoing treat
ment for some time he apparently re-
gained his health, and returned to
Americas. He was possessed of some
r11a txxyn
es i'll different parts of Americas. but
lived alone, never having married,
Relatives Making Investigation
Later news is that Mr. Julius ].
Hogue, of Macon a brother of the
dead man, does not accept the suicide
theory, and believes his death was due
to foul play. He is now i'll Americas
making an investigation. DR.. ]. R.
Statham has made postmortem ex-
animation and states he is not entire
ly satisfied death was sef-inficted.
The dead mans skull was crushed,
DR.. Statham found, and there are in
dications that this was not due entire
ly to bullet wound. One Bullet fired
from Hogue's revolver pierced his hat
which was found lying near the bodys
anu d StCOllu u dSllCu iulOuSil MS
head. Another bullet had been fired
from his revolver.
A peculiar circumstances in connec-
ton with the wounds found upon
Hogue's body is the absence of pow
der burns, this indicating that he may
have been shot from a distance. 1t
would hardly be possible, DR.. Statham
said, to avoid powder burns in the
case of a person shooting himself. APP
proximately fifty dollars in cash was
found upon Hogue's person after
death, and there was no evidence OF
anything in the plant office having
been disturbed, which disposes of any
theory that he might have been muir
dered with robbery as motive.

TURN HAIR DARK
WITH SAGE TEA
If Mixed with Sulphur 1t Darkens
so Naturally Nobody
can Tell.

The old-time mixture of Sage Tea and
Sulphur for darkening gray, streaked
and faded hair is grandmothers recipe,
and folks are again using it to keep
their hair a good, even color, which is
quite sensible, as we are living in an age
when a youthful appearance is OF the
greatest advantage.
Nowadays, though, we don't have the
troublesome task of gathering the sage
and the mussy mixing at home. All
drug stores sell the ready-to-use product,
improved by the addition of other in
gradients, called "Wyeth's Sage and
Sulphur Compound" 1t is very popular
because nobody can discover it has been
applied. Simply moisten your comb or
soft brush with it and draw this
through your hair, taking one small
strand at a time; by morning the gray
hair disappears, but what delights the
ladies with Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur
Compound, is that, besides beautifully
darkening the hair after few applica-
tions. it also produces that soft lustre
and appearance of abundance which is
SO attractive.
