Doctors Report Confne- ment or Hard Labor
 Would Kill Him.
PETITION FOR PARDON
Efforts Alrad, Begun Here and ElSeN here to Secure Il
 Pardon.

Little Rock, Dec. l5=Drs |. F. Sheppard and F. P. Bledsor filed their report of the examination of w. Y Ellis this morning. It states that he has d moderately advance cd case of pulmonary consumption. Judge Lea asked the doctors if con- flnement or hard labor would result seriously ,o ,9.n Hnd the aaclIrs re- piled that either hard labor or close
 confinement Wonld cause the dis ease to advance more rapidly and pr. Bledsoe said that the only chance the man had for his life was to leave here at once and go West
 The doctors said it was very im- portant that he have medical atten- ton and that he be given the right sort of treatment at all times and have special care taken of his phy- sical condition
 The judge had Ellis brought into court, and after conference with his attorney. Hon. James A. Gray, he announced to the court that he desired that sentence be passed on him now.
 Passing Sentence.
 In passing sentence, Judge Lea said that under ordinary circumstances he would not hesitate to give him the limit of the law, and that he probably would give him the limit if it wero not for his physical condition, but he did not want to pass sentence on him that would be equivalent to q death sentence. He said under the circumstances he was going to take make the sentence three years Hc explained to Mr Ellis that the al- lowance off of that sentence for good behavior would be six months, 60 that the sentence was in reality only a sentence of two years and six months. He also suggested that the but that citizenship could be restor- ed at any time if the governor grant, ed him a pardon, and that if he se- cured a pardon at any time during the term he would be entitled to his citizenship.
 Ellis Made No Statement.
 Ellis. after the sentence was pass ed, asked to be permitted to make 8 statement as to why he had entered this plea, and the judge told him that if he made statement that he was not guilty he would not accept his plea, and upon the advice of Mir. Gray, Mr Ellis decided to make no i further statement.
 The case has been fully rehearsed 1 for the last three weeks. W. Y. Ellis shot and killed N. P. Willis of In- dianapolis in this city last July He , claimed to be insane at the time he committed the act, and much evi- dence was brought out in the trial i tending to establish hereditary in- sanity. The jury failed to agree and was discharged after having the case under consideration for nearly three days.

full gum-chewing makes a girl APP
pear? Take her de facto and, gaz-
ing steadily. one can find no more
ideal picture. With sharp Click

pearly, are clashing together as with
cowish glee she masticates her cud.
Then, too. one can note her health
tinted, well-rounded cheeks as they
grow little more rotund through
the material assistance of big
hunk of gum. And. really, who
can imagine a fairer spectacle than
that of her dainty, up-turned nose
as it gently rises and falls in wave
like undulations over the abyssmal
depths revealed at each pressure
against the mass? Oh! how de-
liciously tempting that rosebud

reveling in the luxuries of the sue

Surely. the way of the transgress-
or is hard. Up to last winter there
lived at Rugby one of the ablest
business men in the state. He was
mayor of the town. he was head
center of two banks. and he was in
terested in many other lines of busi-
ness. Prosperity to him seemed an
open road; and undoubtedly it would
have been SO had he been honest.
But he was not. He was by nature
dishonest. Finally. the state was
startled by the announcement that
he had fled. Then it was found that
this man--who could easily have
grown rich through lawful methods
had for years been a rascal, and
that all his business arrangements
had been with the idea of eventual
~ swindling those who had been his
business associates and his best
friends. That the course which he
had deliberately marked out for
himself would make him wander
er and an outcast seemed to have no
negative influence upon him. Fin
ally he got hold of as much money
as he could obtain and fled. For
months nothing was heard of him,
and it was believed by many that he
would never be found. But one Of
his banks was national bank. The
federal government stands no fool
ishness in the matter of violation Of
its laws. 1t is known that. from the
time he left, the detective machin-
cry of the department Of justice had
him sharply in mind. And now they
have captured Andy Jones in Texas.
He is to be brought back back to
his old home, back to meet the men
who had honored him with office,
with their confidence and with their
honestly earned money. 1t seems to
be an almost unbearable fate. Truly,
the way of the transgressor is hard.
If one be guided by no higher prin-
ciple than fear. he should at at least
remember the advice of the father
who wrote to his son: Honesty is
the best policy. my boy. have

Likewise have they been breaking

killed by autos during the meet.
Five of the fatalities are directly
due to the races and two indirectly,
the first class being killed on the
track and the latter run over by au-
tos going to the races. Pretty near
ly everything in the shape of an au-

their machines at speed of sixty
five or seventy miles an hour for
long distances it is probable that
something the man or the machine
will give way under the strain,
and then comes mix-up with the

states will begin enacting laws for
the protection of human life at auto

they already limit the miles per
