How much worse to be under the thumb of whiskey. Escape is possible, but it all rests upon determination.

THE AUGUSTA HERALD. AUGUSTA. GA. Georgia Sheriff Loses in His Race With Death After Confessing Murder, Al bert Davis, of Brunswick, Dies in New Orleans. New Orleans.—Death cheated Sheriff Berry, of Glynn county, Georgia, of a prisoner here Friday, Alien Albert Da vis died In a hospital Just as the aher lff was going to the Institution to take charge of him. Realizing that he was in the last stages of tuberculosis, Davis, accord ing to the police, cleared a murder mystery Tuesday by confessing he killed his sister-in-law last November near Brunswick, Ga. His brother was held In connection with the crime. Davis, the police say, never admit ted why he killed the woman. Case Complicated. Brunswick, Ga. —The death In New Orleans Friday of A. R. Davis, tlie self confessed murderer f Mrs. Mary Da vis, has somewhat complicated the case against V. H. Davis, brother of the dead man and husband of the mur dered woman. It was stated yesterday afternoon that attorneys representing Davis would file a motion for bail, but such a move would be strenuously opposed by stHte's attorney. It Is more than probable that the husband will have to face trial again In June. Many contend that the confession of the brother was made only in an effort to clear the husband and they still entertain the belief that they were both Implicated tn the murder. Confesses He Murdered His Wife 29 Years Ago . - Erie, P a .—That John Turner. S 3 years old, had confessed he murdered his wife twenty-nine years ago, was the statement made Friday to the dis trict attorney by Rev. John B.

He was tried for the crime but was acquitted by the testi mony of members of the family. The Jury held that Mrs. Turner had died as the result of a fall. TYPHOID FEVER IS~THE PENALTY FOR EATING DIRT Washington.—Typhoid fever Is the penalty for eating and drinking dirt, testified Surgeon I.eslle M. l.umsden of the public health service before the senate committee, Friday, considering a bill for federal investigation of mul arJa and typhoid.

GOETHALS sms IT WONT WORK Ditch Digger Declares Ma chinery Used on Canal Not Proper For Work on Missis sippi. i Washington.—Col. Geo. W. Goethals threw a wet blanket Friday on the suggestion that machinery employed In construction of the Panama Canal might be used to advantage in flood protection work In the Mississippi val ley. Senator Smith of Michigan, had made the suggestion in the consider ation by the eonunerec committee of the Uansdell bill appropriating up wards of J«0,000,000 for Mississippi river improvements, that the canal machinery might be used. Col. Goethals told the committee it would not pay to bring any of the machinery, except perhaps some of the dredges, to the United States for any kind of work. That was due part ly to the fact, he said, that the ma chinery had not been kept in condi tion. Parts of machines no longer needed, he said, had been used to re pair others instead of buying new parts. Much of the equipment would be useless in the kind of work proposed, lie said, even if it were in good con dition. GAS LIGHT COMPANY HAS CHANGED HANDS Southern Gas & Electric Cor poration Purchasers.
