FEW DELINQUENT
 ON WATER TAX

Collector J. s. Johnson has turned owe rto the board of improvement of waterworks district of Conway the as- sessment book for the year 1911, with his settlement for the collection of the first annual assessment of benefits. The report shows a remarkably close collection, the amount of delinquents being extremely small. Out of a total assessment of $9,001, only $50. or less than one per cent, is returned delinquent, the majority of those fail ing to pay being nonresident proper ty owners who have doubtless over looked the matter. The collection is without doubt the best ever made in Conway and shows not only Mir. John sons ability in that line, but the vii. lingness of the people to pay for the waterworks system.
 In order not to allow any of the de linquents to accumulate, the improve. ment board have instructed their at. torney, R. w. Robins, to bring pro ceedings in chancery court for the col lection of the unpaid assessments. These suits will be filed in time foi hearing at the September term of tho court.

JUDGE LEA CALLS
 SPECIAL ELECTION
FOR CADR0N CONSTABLE
COMMITTEE EXPECTED TO OR DER PRIMARY FOR DEMO
 CRATIC NOMINEE.

County Judge J. A. Lea this morn ing issued call for a special election to be held in Cadron township Sat urday, September g. for the purpose of electing a constable to fill the va- eaney oceasioned by the resignation of w. II. James, which became effec- tive August 1. On account of the ex- pense of the election and that fact that he believed the township did not need an additional peace officer. Judge Lea hesitated to call the special cleo tion. but was finally convinced that the law making it the duty of tht county judge to call such an election was too plain to be ignored.
 Members of the county Democratic central committee of Cadron township said today they would not risk the election of a Republican by permitting several Democratic to be voted on Sep tember 9, but would call a Democratic township primary election to select a nominee before that date. When the vacancy occurred several local Demo crats considered the matter of offer ing for the office, among them being k. l.. King, O. l.. Honea and John Long. Should the Democrats nominate candidate it is considered doubtful that any Republican opposition will Se offered at the special election.
 The Cadron township committee men are w. B. Wilson, George Shaw, R. w. Robins and Dave Stewart.

9O-DAY LIMIT
 HAS EXPIRED MANY ACTS NOW LAWS
FEW REFERENDUM PETITIONS FILED WITH SECRETARY
 or STATE.

Little Rock. August l2.-The D0- day limit in which bills passed at the regular session of the legislature might be referred to the people by pe- tition ended yesterday, and there were but few petitions received. The 90- day limit of the special session will end September 10, and an effort is be- ing made now to secure sufficient sign CTS to a petition to have the Turner Jacobson revenue bill referred to the people. If these circulating the peti- tions are successful in their attempt, f will be the first important measure to be submitted to the people.
 A petition has been received from aoout l50 voters of Van Buren county asking that act No. l05 of the general assembly, approved March 16, flor the purpose of preventing all male hogs and cattle from running at large under certain conditions" be referred to the people. About 100 voters of "FstNf" N"NhahtP hdNt ptbitionSu against act 6s, approved March 3, to declare a four-wire fenee lawful in certain parts of the county and to prevent the running at large of goats, hogs, sheep, geese, etc. Another pc tition containing about 200 names was received by the voters of Pitts burg township on the same law.
 One petition from certain citizens of Baxter county, containing about 100 names, was filed against the ticl, eradication law. Another petition of 600 names was received from Riddle, in Sevier county, asking that a special election be granted under the initia- tive and referendum to vote on four wire fence law, which goes into effect January 1, 1912. The first petition re- ceived was from a number of legal voters of Fulton, asking that an elec- ton be called to permit them to vote on tl question of whether they should have saloons, the town at pres ent being dry" and the second was signed by number of Pulaski coun- ty voters asking that an election be ordered upon whether or not there should be Sunday baseball in Little Rock.
 The first petition on the Turner Jacobson bill was received by the sec retary of state yesterday, containing 21 names from Milltown, in Sebastian county. A petition has been received from citizens of Paragould, asking that an election be held on a city or dinance providing that stock be pro- hibited from running at large. A pe- titicn was also filed asking for a elec- ton on a four-wire fence law in Faulkner county. but the law has since been repealed by the legislature
 Before taking any steps in eonnec- ton with these petitions, the secretary of state expects Co go carefully over the enabling act after the printed copy has been received, and will then ask an opinion of the attorney gener. al as to the proper method to pursue in all cases. The initiative and refer endum adds considerable work to thS department, and in addition to the pc titions many letters are received from private individuals who generally have what they call exact inside in, formation on what the people want.

REV. JIG. DAWSON
 DEFINES RELIGION

Speaking on the subject of Heart Felt Religion" Rev. J. Clarence Daw- son at the tent last night read ali the passages in the Bible that contained the word religion" also the word re ligious." From these passages he showed the bible only speaks of three religions; The Jewish religion (Gal. 1:13-14, vain religion (Jas. 1:26) and pure religion (Jas. 1:27). He in- sisted that the Jewish religion was not what we wanted, because it was Paul's religion at the time he was "persecut- ing the Church of God and wasting it. and that Paul turned away from the Jews religion when he accepted Christ. It took no argument to con vince the congregation that vain re- ligion would not save, as Paul said in the fifteenth chapter of I Corinth- ians: If our faith is vain, we are yet in our sins"
 MT. Dawson then made a strong ap- peal to his audience to accept pure religion, which James said was ito visit the fatherless and widows in their afflictions, an dto keep himself unspotted from the world" Mr. Daw- son also insisted that this religion al ways brought joy and happiness to those who practiced it.
 There will be services at the tent again tonight, tomorrow at II and to- morrow night.

MISS JANE STiLLMAN
AN HONOR GUEST
AT MRS. HERVEY'S
CHRISTMAS COTILLION

One of the most beautiful as we'll as
the most enjoyable entertainments of
the holiday season was the Christmas
cotillion given Thursday evening at
the Cawthon hotel by Mr.. and Mrs. c.
E. Hervey, complimentary to their
lovely young niece, Miss Louise Am

Mobile Register.
This pretty Texas girl in blue mar
quisette embroidered in blue and
trimmed in crystal beads carrying a
large bunch of American Beauty roses
was a typical rosebud blown direct
from the Lone Star State to shed her
sweetness during the holiday season
in the Gulf City and was very charm
ing as she was introduced to the
guests by Mrs. Hervey, who was love-
ly in a lace gown worn over yellow
messaline.
In the large parlor of the Cawthon
where the german was danced Christ
mas decorations were used, with bam-
boo and smilax in graceful tendrils
twining the chandelier and posts, out
of which cleaned the bright electric
lights and with the bright crimson
poinsettias enhancing the real Christ
masy look of the decorations.
The back part of the lobby, which
opens into the parlor, was fixed up

a decidedly happy place for about one
hundred or more tots who attend the
services there, when the Silent Work

down with fruits and Christmas toys
and also many useful things.
Pensacola merchants had also help
ed in the worthy cause. and the young
guests were made to feel the real
spirit Of Yule-tide in the delightful
atmosphere which prevailed.
Beside the workers. were present
the Rev. Mr.. Eugene Pendleton, of
the First Baptist church; the Rev. Mr..
Thos. Lennox, of the First Christian
church, and y Mr.. Cunningham, of the
Y. M. c. A, the latter being the
speaker of the occasion and deliver
ing a fine address. After the pro-
gram of music and speaking had been
successfully carried out, the distribu-
ton of gifts began, the young hos
tesses of the afternoon taking per-
sonal charge Of this part of the after
noon. Each child was we'll remember
ed, and the event passed in an ex-
tremely pleasant manner. The Silent
Workers, whose identity has been
somewhat of a mystery, is a philan-

lowing young ladies': Misses Vera
