were in part as follows:
Now, the distinction between the
bare physical inventory and the
property actually in service has been
recognized time and time again by
courts and commissions. and question
becomes one as to how best calculate
what that added value is.
AS to the question of what the best
method was to arrive a. this cost the
witness said the New England COM
pany's claim and contention is that
there is just as much cost in getting

He allowed four years for the estab-

items of expense entailed.
He added that at the end of the four

ATTORNEYS LOCKED
In JAIL ; HOURS
THREE CONWAY LAWYERS UN-
ABLE TO GET OUT EVEN

Locked in the county Jail for three
hours and unable to gain their re-
lease even though every man in town
would have signed their bond, was
the unpleasant experience of three
Conway attorneys this morning Short
ly after 8 o'clock this morning, Judge
E. M. Merriman, G. w. Clark and
George Shaw, who were appointed by
the court to represent the seven ne
groes held under white slavery charg-
es, called at the Jail to consult with
their clients. After they had been ad-
mitted Sheriff j. S. Johnson locked the
outside steel door and left the key
with someone on the outside. When
in about thirty minutes the attorneys
had finished their consultation, they
called to Jim Reed, with whom the
key had been left. Reed attempted to
unlock the door, but the key became
hung and he was unable to turn it.
He stepped over to the courthouse

LOWING ACCIDENTAL IN
JURY SATURDAY.

Following an injury received while
at work on one of his farms north of
this city last Saturday, John S. Jones,
pioneer citizen of Conway, died at his
home on South Front street at $50
O'Clock this morning. The accident
sustained by Mr.. Jones was not re-
garded as serious and yesterday it
was thought he would be able to be
out today. During last night, how
ever, his condition took turn for the
worse, death occurring within a few
hours.
In point of residence here, Mr.. Jones
was probably Conway's Oldest citizen.
He came here before the town was
established and lived continuously in
this place for more than 40 years.

ty, Miss, June 13, 1916. He was mar
ried in Mississippi December /, 1869,

moved to this place on November %,
1872. To Mr. and Mrs. Jones were
born nine children, of whom six, two
daughters and four sons, survive.
They are Mrs. 0. 0. Florence and
Miss Bernice Jones, J. Frank, Joe B.,
j. Kirby and Charles w. Jones, all of
Conway. He also leaves his aged
mother, Mrs. Mary Ann Jones of this
city; one brother, w. C. Jones, who
lives in Alaska, and five sisters, Mrs.
]. A. Pence, Mrs. B. G. Wilson and
Miss Emma Jones of Conway, Mrs.
B. 7. Powell Of Vilonia and Mrs. Alex
Hovis of Guy.
Mr.. Jones served during the Civil
war as a Confederate soldier. For
For many years after coming to Con-
way he conducted successful mer-
camille business here, but of late years
he has devoted his time to looking af-
ter his business and farming inter-
ests. He was devoted member of
the Baptist church of Conway and of
Green Grove Lodge No. 107, F. & A..
NJ, of which he served as treasurer
for more than quarter century
The funeral will be held tomorrow
at o'clock. In the absence of his
pastor, Rev. Otto Wilmington, who is
conducting a revival in Louisiana, the
services will be conducted bv Rev.
Sam H. Campbell of Little Rock The
interment will be at Oak Grove GEM
etery under the auspices of the local
Masonic lodge. The active pail
