County Judge May Pardon ConvIcts
Special to the News.

Speclai 10 me NeWs.
 Little Rock, January 4 But few people know teat a county judge has a right to pardon a convict. But this is fact, and County Judge, c. T. Coffman, ot Pulaski County, has exercised this right.
 It lis so seldom that this is done, people forget that the county judge even has this right, but Lee Williams, who was con victed in police court of attempt ed grating and sent to the coun- ty farm, can testify to the eff ciency of the right, for Williams is now free man-but he will move on-from Little Rock.
 Williams is drug tiend, and is of no worth to the city or county, and for that reason Judge Golf man released him upon the pro- mise that he will shake the dust of Pulaski County from his feet, and keep it shaken.
 Judge Rateree fined Williams $500 and sent him to the farm for six months upon charge of attempting to fleece farmer of S7, by getting him to bet on the

Still a Puzzle to Many

Little Rock, Jan. 4.-Special- The disappearance of James J Flske, of this city promoter of the Pine Bluff and Little Rock lnterurban Railway continues to puzzle many, even his closest friends admitting that it now looks bad for the contractor. His wife and infant, residing here, are in ignorance of his where, aboutS, and are able to give no information regarding his move ments. The report that warrants are out for his arrest appear to be well founded, but the officers who have the papers can not be located.
 It is now reported that Mir. Fiske has gone to Chicago for the purpose of closing deals for the further financing of the project to build the line, but there is lit tie hope that this will succeed at this time. Reports of dissipation are not true, according to the statement of his closest friends and associates, and it now ap- pears to many that the man mere ly undertook proposition too large for him, and for that req son disappeared. The alleged use of the firm name of Fiske and Company of New York is against him, however.
