Douglas, Ariz., May 27.-(Special)-
 The Elks lodge of this city has taken a lease on the entire upper floor of the Tarpey building on G avenue. adjoining the Pullman cigar store. Besides a large and roomy hall several rooms are to be furnish ed for club purposes. These club rooms will be open at all times for the Elks and their friends.

 The furniture and fixtures for both hall and club rooms have already been ordered and much of it is being manufactured to special order. The work of fitting up and furnishing the entire second floor is in the hands of the lodge trustees, Messrs. Harry Calisher and w. de H. Washington.
 It is expected that the hall and club rooms will be ready for occupancy by the first of July or very soon there after and the opening of the new quar ters will no doubt be made the occa sion of swell affair.

and Congressman threaten it's
defeat unless these provisions
and appropriations are increas-
ed. Senator Money only last
week expressed the OF inion that
he alone would take the respon-
sibility of the defeat of the bill In
the upper branch of Congress
unless the Pascagoula river pro
ject was more literally cared
for. So it will be seen that the
bill has several gauntlets to run
if it becomes a law.
The order for a survey of the
upper Bigbee and the provision
for it by the government repre-
sents the consummation of an
undertaking which has involved
years of patient and unremitting
work by many who have had no
object in view, no end to be at
tanned except the development
of our town. Beginning with
the river convention in Columbus
several years ago nothing has
been left undone by the faithful
few to keep this project con
stantly before Congress and to
impress its mem bers With the
imp partance of the work. Con
ventions have been held held.
sentiment has been developed.
memorials have been printed and.
distributed, the cooperation of
Congressman has been enlisted
and everything done possible for
the accom- plishment Of this pro
iect which is so close and so dear
to the people of Western Ala

pi.
The survey will be the first
recognition of the government of
the importance Of he work. 1t

FUGITT RESPITED UNTIL FEBRUARY %
The Prentiss County Murderer Secures New Lease
Life Through the Governor.

II was presented by a delegation
of citizens from the section
where the crime was mitted
which was headed by Hon. Jor-
dan Boone, one of the attorneys
for the condemned man, and it
contained $50 names. Among
the petitioners were Judge E. O.
Sykes, who presides at the
three trials of the murderer and
who stated that he believed the
punishment ought to be changed
to life Imprisonment. Another
signer of prominence was Chan
cellOr MuldrOw who presided at
the habeas corpus proceedings
and he states that he did not be-
lieve the defendant guilty of will
ful murder. The Supreme Court
judges also joined in the petition
for respite.
An interesting feature of the
petition is the statement of the
court stenographer of the dis
trict in regard to an expression
used by the late Hon. J. w. Bar
ron, prosecuting attorney of the
district, who remarked after the
last conviction of Fugitt that he
was not satisfied with the verdict
of the jury, and thought he ought
TO have been given a recommen-
dation for life sentence. MIR.
Barron died several months ago,
and prior to the trial he offered
to allow the counsel for Fugitt to
enter a plea of guilty to man
slaughter and accept a twenty
year sentence.

James Watt Fugitt, the Pres
tiss county murderer, whose
presence in the Jail at this place
has given his case a local inter
est, will not be hanged tomorrow
as decreed by the courts. Gov.
Vardaman has granted the con
demned man a respite until the
28th of February, and the work
of bringing additional evidence
and testimony forward in behalf
of the condemned man will now
be undertaken by his attorneys
and those interested in his be-
half with renewed vigor.
The Governors decision was
not made known until Friday He
telegraphed the fact to the sher-
iff of Prentiss county and that
officials deputy in turn wired
Sheriff Eggleston who informed
the prisoner. Fugitt seemed
very grateful when the yellow
paper was unfolded to him by
the sheriff and the message
which gave him a new lease of
life was read. All along he has
believed that something would

gallows and when he was assured
that he would not die tomorrow
he expressed unfeigned pleasure.
Shortly after the reception OF
the message Sheriff Long OF
PrentiSS county arrived in the
city to take Fugitt home for ex-
ecution. The sheriff had not
heard that the man had been
granted a respite and he was
here to get him for the march to
the scaffold. All preparations
were proceeding for the tragic
event as if nothing would happen
and the respite was a relief tC
the sheriff, for Fugitt had been
his lifelong friend and the task
of executinghim would have beer

Wreck on the Southern.

A west bound freight train on
the Southern railway in charge
of Engineer Horn and Conductor
Ray was wrecked near Fern nbank,
Ala, at an early hour last Thurs
day morning. The train was
coming around a curve at a rapid
rate of speed when suddenly
there was sharp grating noise
which a car always makes when
jumping the track and within the
space of a minute sixteen cars
had jumped the rails and lay pill
ed up by the side of the road.
While the financial loss which
the wreck entailed was very
great Only one person was ipjur-
ed. This was Brakeman Davis,
and his injuries are not very
serious in their nature. The
track was blocked for quite a
while and traffic was seriously
interfered with. Neither the
east or west bound passenger
trains could pass over the track
on account of the wreck, and il
was necessary to transfer the
passenger 5, express and mail
matter from one train to the 9th.

At last. The untiring, unceas
ing efforts of those in this city
and elsewhere who have worked
to bring the Tombigbee before
the Federal government as a
stream for navigation improve
Improvement, have in measure
been rewarded. Specials sent
out from Washington the past
week contain the gratifying and
encouraging information that the
river and harbOr bill. as at pres
ent outlined by Chairman Bur
ton and the mem bers of the com
mittee, contains a provision for a
com plete surver of the upper
Tom bigbee with a view of deter
mining definitely and accurately
the practicability of i'm proving 1t
for permanent navigation.
This statement was expected
in view of the telegram which
was received in Columbus last
week from Congressman Bank
head in which that gentleman
stated that if the river and har-
Dor bill became a law at this ses-
sion the Tom bigbee would be
provided for. and now that the
provisions of the bill are made
known and it is certain that this
project has been incorporated in
it, the information is more as
suring than ever.
While the item has been pro
vided for in the bill it is not alb
solutely certain that it will be al
lowed at this session. There is
strong opposition to the bill in
both branches of Congress and
this opposition arises from a
mum Der OF causes. The Presi-
dent is on record as stating that
the government expenditures
for river and harbor improve
ment must be held down to the
minimum and those who are
against the bill to increase and
extend the power of the Inter
State Railroad Com mission are
threatening the river and harbor
bill, if the freight rate matter is
persisted in. Then too, there
is another danger. In certa n
sections of the country there is
apparent and widespread dis
satisfaction with the provisions
of the river and harbOr bill as tC

Military Men Here.

Adjt. Gen. Arthur Fridge and
Mai. Robert Dowdy, of the. L. S.
Army, detailed to be on duty
with the National Gaurd of this
State, arrived in the city last
Friday evening for the purpose
of inspecting the Columbus Rife
men. Capt. w. G. Mcclure Of
the local company, ordered his
men to appear at the armory on
Friday night and the company
was inspected by both of the
officers, making a very credit
able showing.
1t was the intention Of the
Rifemen to tender to the visiting
militiamen a banquet last night
at the Commercial Hotel and
many invitations had been issued
to prominent citizens Of this
place. The departure of both
of these gentlemen caused the
entertainment to be called of,
much to the regret of the Nation
al Guard who were extreme
ly anxious to tender to these
distinguished visitors this court
esy.
