not move, and when l caught his
hands and called him frantically, he
did not hear me. And so, with the
horror over me, I half fell down the
stairs and reused Jim in the studio.
They all came with lights and blan-
kets, and they carried him into the
tent and put him on the couch and
tried to put whisky in his mouth. But
he could not swallow. And the 81

cried, He is dead! dead!" and col

But he was not. Just as the lights
in the tent began to have red rings
around them and Jim's voice came
from away across the river, some
body said, There, he swallowed
that" and soon after, he opened his
eyes. He muttered something that
sounded like "Andean pinnacle" and
lapsed into Inconsistencies again.
But he was not dead! He was not
dead!
When the doctor came they made a
stretcher out Of one Of Jim's six-foot
canvases-it had a picture on it, and
Jim was angry enough the next day

made it as much like a sick room as
we could, and we tried to make him
comfortable. But he lay without open

MORE ROBBERIES
CHARGED TO LUA

The additional theft of between eight
hundred and a thousand dollars worth
of jewelry and other valuabes has been
traced by Chief of Detectives McDuffie
to the series of dramatic robberjes CON-
mitted by John Lua, u convict, who for
months past has been an inmate of
Oahu Prison, In custody of High Sheriff
Henry, serving out "a en-year sentence
upon former charge of burglary
In addition to at least S25O0 worth of
valuable rings. including sunbursts,
diamonds and plain gold ornaments,
the officers also believe that when Lua
finally breaks through his apparent re-
serve he will admit the theft of other
articles\now known to have been taken
from residences In Makiki and Tantalus
districts.

has lost stickpin. two gold rings, one

source that the new ordinance will
entail n vast amount OF work on the
building inspector as II will become

trips to all country districts.
Mr. Dole's suggestion is that the
board divide the island of Oahu into

area within the present fire limits.

effect that the section relating to car
ing for storm water read that such
water might be carried away from

ters and into storm drains and sewers

Carl On Tai has filed his suggestions

ground that its adaptation gives the

that the ordinance shall not apply

GOV. DONACHEY
 PARDONS ELLIS

Little Rock, April Ex-Governor Donaghey today issued a pardon to W. Y. Ellis, who shot and killed N. P. Willis in the circuit court room of the Pulaski courthouse in November, 1909. Ellis was serving a two-year term and his time would have expired within a few months.
 The killing for which Ellis was con victed was one of the most tragic in the history of the state, and it's cir cumstances are well remembered throughout Arkansas. Following his conviction, the friends of Ellis brought upon Governor Donaghey, in the midst of his campaign for a sec ond term, enormous pressure to ex- tend clemency to Ellis. After consid- erng the matter for some days, the governor on January P, 1910, de- clined to grant the pardon and issued letter reciting his reasons for his action which excited favorable com ment throughout the nation.
 Ellis has been in bad health practic- ally ever since he entered prison and this fact, together with the near ap- proach of the completion of his term of imprisonment, caused Governor Donaghey to grant him a pardon.

CONCERT PLEASES
 LARGE AUDIENCE

The annual concert by the students of the Conway public school was given in the school auditorium last evening and was attended by large audience, in spite of the rain which fell yester- day afternoon and evening. Several delightful piano duets and trios were rendered by students of the primary and grammar school grades. Special numbers of the program were the boys choruses and the Japanese drill by the girls. Another feature of the program was the umbrella drill' by the little tots of the first grade. "Hia- watha," a pantomime, was no doubt the best number of the evening and was we'll rendered. Six scenes from the infancy of Hiawatha to his mar riage were presented. The proceeds of the entertainment will go to the library fund of the school. This en- tertainment is the one usually given at the close of the school but on ac- count of so many other things at com mencement time, it was decided by Superintendent w. B. Hubbell to have the concert last night.

DEMOCRAT MAY
 SUCCEED ROGERS

Little Rock, April 1S.-The body of Hon. John H. Rogers of Fort Smith. federal judge for western district of Arkansas, was taken to his late home last night by his son, Douglass, sev- eral Little Rock friends and a dele gatlon of the Fort Smith bar. The funeral will be held Wednesday or Thursday.
 Judge Rogers, who had served in congress and on the circuit bench, was elevated to the federal bench by Pres ident Cleveland. It is probable that concurrent resolution will be passed by the legislature requesting Presi- dent Taft to appoint another popular Democrat, former Chief Justice Jos. M. Hill of Fort Sith, to succeed him. He has set the precedent in several southern states of appointing Demo- crats on the federal judiciary, and the appointment of Judge Hill would be most popular selection by him. It is understood the Republicans will recommend Hon. Frank A. Youmans.

MAN REPORTED SLAIN
 IS NOT KNOWN HERE
R. H. HARRINGTON, KILLED BY MEXICANS, SAID TO BE SON
 OF CONWAY WOMAN.

A story in Tuesdays Little Rock Gazette says:
 ''J. k. Roberts of this city, clerk in the Iron Mountain railway offices, received a wire yesterday from the 3u- perintendent of the Fl Paso X South western railroad at Douglas, Ariz., stating that while battle was in progress between the federal and in surrecto troops just across the line in Mexico, R. II. Harrington, a switch man in his employ, was struck by 9 stray bullet and killed Roberts ad- dress was found in the dead mans pocket and the Arizona railroad off cial wants to know if Harrington's relatives can be located, as the body IS being held for them. It is known that Harrington was formerly night yardmaster for the Rock Island in Ar genta and also worked as a switchman for the Iron Mountain across the riv- CT. It is understood that he has two brothers in this vicinity and that his mother lives at Conway"
 So far as can be learned, no one in Conway knows anything of either the young man reported to have been kill ed or his mother, and telephone in- qulry to Greenbrier, near which a number of families by the name of Harrington are living, failed to deyel- op any information regarding the man who was killed.

RAINS DELAY
 WATFRWORKS

Construction of the Conway water works system has been greatly retard- ed during the past 10 days on account of the continued rains, and practical ly all work on the system is at a standstill It is impossible to use the big ditching machine for laying the mains, as the trenches cave and fill in as fast as they are dug. Contractor McCoppen is having excavations made on the reservoir as the rains permit. The machinery has been installed at the pumping station, but the brick building will not be started until the weather becomes more settled.
