You see, Motherkin, the main difference be- tween the old-fashioned wife and the new-fashioned one is that the old fashioned wife assumed that friend husband lost interest in every other woman in the world as soon as the marriage ceremony was over, while the modern wife knows differently.

well, Cora. girl, I've obeyed your command. I've apologized to your mother. You know how love to be told to do a thing" David added with a wry face, "but-well, it's done. And now think we ought to get together, you and and your mother, and have friendly reunion. It'll make us all feel better"

PLANS FILED FOR SA[T|LL0 HIGHWAY ESTIMATED COST S37,4OO Promoters of District Believe Im- prOvement will be Carried to
 Successful Completion.

Plans and an estimate of the pro- posed road improvement district for the construction of a highway from Conway to Saltillo, prepared by State Highway Engineer Hugh R. Carter, were filed in the Faulkner county court yesterday. The survey was made early this summer and for a time it was thought the valuation of property in the district would not be sufficient to permit the construc- tion of the road and the project would have to be abandoned, but those interested in the movement state since the receipt of the plans and estimate that it will be carried to successful completion
 The plans are apparently well ex- ecuted and cover 13 large sheets, showing in detail all points neces- sary to be covered. Full specified tions accompany the plans. The proposed road will be constructed of Benton gravel, the roadway being 22 feet wide and the gravel surface 10 feet wide and six inches deep. The road is 8.07 miles in length. A steel bridge across Palarm creek is included in the plans.
 The estimated cost of the entire improvement is $37,480.50, an aver age of $4,644.40 per mile. The items of the estimate are as follows:
 18,100 cubic yards earthwork at 2Oc, $3,620; corrugated pipe for cul- verts, $960; steel bridge, $2,4OO; PIP cubic yards concrete culverts and headwalls at SIP, $2,544. Benton gravel, hauled, spread, sprinkled and rolled for finished road, 1,5OO tons per mile: 750 tons, O-1 mile at S1.3O, $975; l,500 tons, 1-2 mile at $1.5O S2,250; 1,500 tons, 2-3 miles at$1.7O, S2,25O; l,50O tons, 3-4 miles at $1.9O, $2,S50; 1,500 tons, 4-5 miles at $2.1O, $3,150; 1,5O0 tons, 5-6 miles at $23O, S3,450; 1,500 tons, 6-7 miles at $2.5O, $3,750; 1,500 tons, 7-8 miles at S2.7O, S4,050; 855 tons, 8-9 miles at $2.9O, $2,479.50.

FAVOR BUILDING COUNTY HOSPITAL COMMITTEE IS APPOINTED To Devise Ways and Means-Large Meeting Unanimously Votes
 For Hospital.

Unanimous approval of the idea of erecting county hospital at Con- way was expressed yesterday after noon at the regular monthly meeting of the Faulkner County Medical So- clety, which was attended by large number of visitors. After several short talks on the subject, rising vote was taken and everyone pres ent stood up and was recorded in favor of the proposition.
 The meeting was presided over by the president, Dr. James M. MusA The special committee, consisting of Doctors H. K. Cureton, w. J. West and G. D. Huddleston, made it's re port, recommending tae erection of hospital, if any means could be de- vised with which to support it. It was pointed out that a county tax in excess of the present maximum of five mills could not legally be levied, but attorneys had advised the com mittee that it might be possible for the legislature to levy state tax to apply only in this county for the purpose. It was also suggested that sufficient private donations might be secured. The matter was finally left to committee on ways and means to be appointed by the president. Dr. Muse took the personnel of the committee under advisement and to- day announced the following ap- pointments: Rev. L. M. Sipes, Dr. F. s. H. Johnston, Mrs. Jo Frauenthal 5. G. Smith, William J. Drummer H. B. Ingram and Mrs. Sam Heili- gers.
 Tentative plans for 3S-room building, three stories and basement, were submitted for inspection by Ar chitect Thomas Harding and E. w. Jenkins of Little Rock. This build ing, they stated, could be erected at a cost of approximately $35,OOO.
 Short talks at the meeting were made by Rev. L. M. Sipes, Rev. J. w. Boyer, J. D. Martin of Martin vile, Mrs. Heiligers, Dr. George S. Brown and others, ali the speakers expressing an enthusiastic approval of the hospital idea
 mass meeting will be held at the courthouse next Thursday night at which time the ways and means committee will make report and the proposition will be further con- sidered. Every citizen of the county IS invited to attend this meeting.

ONCE IN SHADOW l OF CALL0WS: FREE
MUNN'SSLAYfRPARDONFD
Report Says that Jesse Whitley. Now Free. will Wed Murdered
 Mans Sweetheart.

Once in the shadow of the gallows, with II jurors voting to impose upon him the death sentence and only one holding out for a lighter degree of punishment, Jesse Whitley of Des Are, who shot and killed Wesley Mum, a former Vilonia boy and a nephew of Dr. J. B. Mum of Vilo- mia and J. c. Mum of Conway, is now free man. A full pardon was granted yesterday by Governor Hays to Whitley, who had served less than two years of sentence of 21 years. Application for the pardon had been pending before the governor for several weeks. When notice of the application was first published friends of the slain man in Faulkner county began the circulation of a remonstrance and in one days time over 900 signatures to the remon- Strance were secured.
 Whitley and Mum were rivals for the hand of Miss Bessie Baty of Des Arc, who had refused Whitley's at tentions and had accepted Mum As the latter was walking along the sidewalk in front of a store at Des Arc Whitley rushed out of the build ing and opened fire upon Mum, kill ing him instantly.
 According to report from Des Are, Miss Baty has now become a warm friend of Whitley and it is said that she has promised to marry him when he received pardon Miss Baty is daughter of MT. and Mrs. J. Baty, who formerly conduct ed a hotel at Des Arc. Whitley has been working as a clerk in the office of the state peni- tentiary. One of the claims advanced to secure his pardon was that his parents and older brother had died about four years ago, leaving him to support three younger brothers and sisters.

HAIL DAMAGE NOT
 GREAT IN COUNTY
FALL WAS HEAVY HERE
Lightning Enters Conway Residence, Causing Alarm of Fire to be
 Turned in.

While the hailstorm which occurred at Conway early last night was de-
 clared by many to be the heaviest ever witnessed here, reports from
 the surrounding territory today in- dicate that little damage was done to
 crops by the hailstones. The storm
 was apparently centered over this city. There was some hail in the
 immediate farming territory around Conway and considerable damage was done to cotton in farms along the Beebe road for a distance of about one mile east, but at no other
 point has any damage been reported. In this city and particularly in the western portion of the town, the hail poured down for about 15 min
 utes, covering the ground until it was white and riddling trees and vegetation of their foliage. Had such storm occurred over cotton field the cotton would have been al
 most total loss.
 The hail was accompanied by a severe electrical storm. One bolt struck the electric light wires en-
 tering the residence of Mrs. Dora Albright, Prime and Faulkner streets,
 setting fire to insulation on the wires
 and causing an alarm of fire to be
 turned in. Practically no damage
 resulted, however, as the fire was
 extinguished before it extended to the woodwork.
 The precipitation at Conway last night measured .76 inch
