If the teachings of experience are of
any value 1t is probable that the man
calling himself William Jones of Vas
salboro, who had been passing a few
days in Augusta on a bit of a larls,
went home Friday a wiser and per
haps a sadder man. The first intro
duction that the public had to Mr..
Jones was when he was arraigned
before the municipal court Thursday
morning on charge of intoxication.
That would not have in itself been
very unusual occurrence. for even in
these days when the lid is on" there
is an occasional arrest for drunken
ness. but when it became known that
Mr.. Jones had in his jeans at the time
of his arrest cash to the amount of
S2S6.11. his case at once took to itself
more than ordinary interest. He was
assessed S4.62 for his audience with
a balance of $281.49. But that was
not all. When the session of court
opened Friday morning the first and
only culprit to appear was Mr.. Jones.
The charge was the same as that of
Thursday morning but when the mat
ter of payment came up he had moth
ing to pay with. for his roll was gone,
so sentence in the case was suspend
ed. What became of his money is
not known but probably some of the
buns about town who are always
looking for just such easy marks
went through him.

ANOTHER SALARY
 BILL UP TODAY Representative Pinney Will Offer One to Become Elf
 fective in Two Years.
CARRY LARGER SUMS
Judge kerWin Voted For Toney Meas ure But It Was Lost By
 Vote of Sf to 1.

In the House at Little Rock yester- day, where the Toney county salary bilI applying to the officials of Jeffer- son county, was called up as special order for the morning session. after it had been read d second time the day before, and defeated by vote of S4 to 1.
 Judge E. J. Kerwin of this county, who championed the bill from the very start and remained loyal to his convictions, was the only member of the House who voted for it.
 Representative c. D. McAllister, of this county, spoke against the meas ure. He declared that he spent Sat urday in Pine Bluff conferring with the business men and found that they were generally against it. At night, said the Jefferson represents tive, he went among the working men aud found them to oppose it generally. He cohtended that the people of Jef- ferson county did not want the bill Judge Kerwin, evidently realizing that the bill would be defeated by an ov- :rwhelming vote did not talk at any great length in it's favor.
 It is stated that Representative w. B. Pinney will present similar meas ure today in the House, providing fer salary system for the Jefferson county office holders and fixing the salaries at larger amount than list ed in the Toney measure. It is stat ed that the Pinney bill will provide that the salary system go into effect at the expiration of the present terms of the county officials.
