While unable on account of the con-

cutting for the laying of sewer pipes,
Contractor Joseph McCoppin has been
pushing the work of constructing the
septic disposal tank in the south
eastern corner of the city. The ex-
cavation for this tank is now prac-
tically completed and the work of
pouring the concrete will be started
within a few days. Mr.. McCoppin
states that practically all the manholes
and flush tanks have been built where
the sewers have been laid, and as soon
as the tank is completed, which will
be within week or two, citizens will
be allowed to connect and begin the
use of the sewer system at once.

GOVERNOR REFUSES
lLEMENCY To FOX

Little Rock, Jan. Gov. Hays
has declined to take any action in the
case of jim Fox, who was convicted of
assault to kill Little Rock man in
Lonoke county last fall, and sentenced
to a year in the penitentiary. This
was done after he had been tried and
acquitted of the murder of a man
named Phillips, of Little Rock, on the
same occasion as that when he fired
upon Phillips companion as the latter
was running away from the scene of
the trouble.
An application was made to the
governor Monday by counsel for Fox
for full pardon. The penitentiary
commission, however, had granted
Fox a parole after he had served about
one third of the sentence, without con-
ferring with Gov. Hays. The gov
ernor, therefore told counsel for Fox
that he would not interfere in the case
at this time.

NEGRO ATTEMPTS
TO FORGE CHECK

A bold attempt was made yesterday
afternoon by w. M. Walker, a negro,
to forge check on John Ingram of
this city for $50. Walker is alleged
to have gone to the store of w. M.
Harrell & Co. and purchased an auto
matte shotgun, valued at $50, and pre-
sented a check drawn on "John In
grammar" and made payable to w. M.
Walker. The check did not look just
right to the clerk, who carried to the
office to see if he should accept it.
Mr.. Harrell telephoned to Mr.. Ingram
and asked him if he had written the
check. When told that he had not,
Mr.. Harrell refused to accept it.
The negro then went to the Faulk-
ner County Bank to get the check
cashed. In the meantime, Mr.. Ingram
had warned the cashier not to accept
the check if it was presented. Just
as Walker presented the check to the
teller he was arrested by Deputy
Sheriff C. o. Payne, who later turned
the prisoner over to Constable John
Long, Jr.
Information charging Walker with
attempt at forgery was filed before
Justice of the Peace Geo. M. Easter
wood by Deputy Prosecuting Attorney
S. w. Rogers. His trial was set for
January 8. In default of $500 bond
he was committed to Jail.
The check bore no date with the ex-
ception of the year, and was signed
"John Ingranham." The endorsement
is said to have been made by the same
person as the one who signed the
check.

made for all who enter now or later.
Don't start your six-year-old unless

REPENTS ACT AFTER
ATTEMPT AT SUICIDE
SAVED BY PHONE GIRLS
TRAVELLING MAN DESCRIBES
HIS NEAR DEATH SEN
Stations.

Fort Smith, Jon. 6.-Deciding not
to commit suicide and, after inhaling
gas for two hours, deciding that it
was a cowardly way to die, J. Willis
Nelson, better known as "Sunny JIM"
prominent travelling man, revealed a
remarkable drama in which he and the
operators at the Southwestern Tele-
graph and Telephone Company were
the central figures yesterday
The telephone girls saved his life,
although for long time they believed
Nelson's signal was the work of a
playing child instead of the efforts of
dying man to summon help.
Brooding over domestic troubles and
financial embarrassment, Nelson says
he decided to commit suicide. His
wife had left, he says, and when alone
in his home, he locked himself in his
bathroom. Lying in the bathtub he
turned on the gas into an open stove
and calmly awaited death. He lost
consciousness, but after while he was
revived.
"My God, the sensations I suffered"
said Nelson in describing his near
death to a reporter. "My head was
swimming. l saw nothing but blue
flashes in front of me. My mouth was
at white heat. I heard strange
sounds; l cannot describe them, they
were so wierd. l tried to cry, but I
could not utter a sound. My throat
was parched so dry that it seemed to
be as hard as steel, only hot enough to
burn.
81 thought the end was coming any
second. Lord, how l suffered for just
one gasp of fresh air. l suffered
thousand tortures in the twinklingaof
an eye. Then | resolved that I would
not die like a coward, but would save
myself. How l ever unlocked the bath
room door, God only knows. The only
thing l can remember was when yell
ed into the telephone, Gas, dying!'
For more than Is minutes there
was constant signal at the telephone
exchange from Nelson's telephone.
The operator repeatedly inquired:
Number" but receiving no response,
she thought a child was playing with
the instrument. The chief operator
was summoned and she detected a
groan. Keeping up constant line of
inquiry the person at the other end
finally asked for a number, that of
Nelson's mother-in-law. The latter
did not answer and when the operator
attempted to make report to Nelson
she couldn't raise him. But his sig
nal came back shortly afterward and
he groaned: "I'm in trouble"
Then the line was closed. A mo-
ment later it was opened. "Gas, dy-
ing" lisped a faint voice.
The operator, who had already
traced the call to Nelson's home, ad-
vised his neighbors. Then she sum-
moned physicians and the fire depart
ment's pumotor. Neighbors broke
down a door and found Nelson uncon-
scious by his telephone. Half an hour
later the pulmotor had revived him.
1t developed that while he was try
ing to summon assistance by telephone
he become unconscious and was then
unable to regain his senses.
Nelson is out of danger today.

BUSINESS FAILURES
ARE FEW In ARKANSAS

Little Rock, Jan. 3.-Judge C. C.
Waters, United States referee in
bankruptcy, reports that the new year
is opening up in most gratifying
way. The readjustments following the
beginning of a new year frequently
cause failures among mercantile and
other enterprises, but there are none
in prospect at this time. For several
months there have been only very
few failures, and those of very small
concerns. The year 1914 opens with
prospects the most fattering for an
era of prosperity.
