GA NEW HOUSES
 BUILT LAST YEAR ABOVE l5-YEAR AVERAGE New Construction Past Two Years Indicates Population Increase of
 75S Since 1920 Census.

Despite hard times," considerably more than the average number ot buildings were erected in Conway during the year 1921, according to the record maintained by Dr. George S Brown. The total number of new buildings for the past year, 64, was Tn fact larger than the number built in any preceding year except three 1914, 1919 and 1920.
 pr. Brown has carefully kept 2 record of all new buildings in Conway each year since 1906. No improve. ments or additions to buildings al. ready standing are included. Dur. ing the period of 15 years exactly I50 new houses, residences and busi- ness houses, have been built in the city. y,sS x
 The new construction gives a fair index as to population. During the decade from 1910 to 1920 total of 1855 new buildings were erected. The population, according to census fig. ures, increased from 2,794 in 1910 to 4,564 in 1920, gain of TITO. This shows that for each house built there was population gain of 37 persons. Since the last census was taken on January 1, 1920, IFS new houses have been built in Conway. Multiply ing this by the same factor, gives an increase of population in the two years of 758, which added to the 1920 figures gives present population of 5,322. The census figures do not in- clude a boarding student population of over 600, which would make the present actual population of Conway approximately 5000.
 The number of new houses built in Conway each year from 1907 to 1921 inclusive, according to Dr. Browns record, is as follows: 1907, 26; 1908 36; 1909, 35; 1910, 36; 1911, 40; 1912 57; 1913, 49; 1914, 76; 1915, 37; 1916 A; 9l7, 32; 1918 (no record kept; only about six houses built on ac- count of war restrictions); 1919, 112; 1920 99; 1921, GA.
 New buildings, the construction of which was begun in 1921, were by months as follows:
 January-E. A. Scull; concrete bungalow; Jules Favre, bungalow CD; Mrs. C. E. Leigh, bungalow; Jess Berry, shop and garage; c. A. Sim mons, cottage.
 February - George S. Underhill cottage; George Mobbs, cottage; Con way milk station.
 March-Theo Thessing, brick store building; Julius Parker, bungalow w. F. Whiddon, residence.
 April-C. F. Hopkins, blacksmith shop.
 May-Jules Favre, cottage.

Circuit court convened this morn ing by Judge George W. Clark, wa. 1 organized and set to it's business witt a qulckness and dispatch which make. It certain that the big docket set vii be disposed of within the appointed time After the grand jury had beer examined and empaneled, Judge Clark delivered its instructions and then turned to the petit jury. It was divided into two panels ana Ihe first case called. Prosecuting Attorney w J. tBlll) Waggoner of Lonoke is on hand to represent the state in crimi- nal actions and before the grand jury.
 Members of the two petit jury pan els as divided by the court are: H. A. Moore, Luther Holloway, Walter Edwards, J. J. Ball, K. F. Curtis, w. A. Lheblong, w. A. Russell, w. B. Blythe, M. C. Hawkins, R. F. Brady, J. l.. George and J. E. Montgomery. Second panel; w. T. Hall, J. P. Fin ton, Fulton Farris, Creed Adams, w. 0. Durham, l. G. Bailey, Russell Brown, R. B. Townsend, c. H. Fuller, w. A. lobe, H. R. Sans and Roy Sims.
 The first case called by the court was Simpson Douglass Machinery Company vs. Mace Loveless. Judge Clark m beginning the court and grand jury on their labors, appointed Herb Martin as special bailiff for the grand jury.
 Petit jurors were reminded at length by Judge Clark of their duties and the importance of the work set for them. Court will be convened each morning at S:30." the court said, and you will help in reducing the expense by being on hand promptly. Circuit court is the most expensive institution maintained by this county and we are due the tax payers, your self included, to keep down the cost"
 After reciting that during his ser vice on the bench, he had not fined petit juror for being late, Judge Ci'i Iui llSd lO Ille llidlltE Ol DEIDeTy or the exercise of undue influence over jury men. 1t is a gross insult for any one to approach you with the intention of influencing your verdict, he declared. Such a person thinks you are as dishonest and depraved as he himself is. An honest man will promptly report to the court efforts of this kind and the offenders will be summarily handled. The only safe course for jury man is to be gov erned by the law and evidence 1T reaching his verdict. That done, yol ! will have no uneasy conscience after your verdict has been voted. Agita, tors and persons of Bolshevik minds will lose their jobs when the citizen ship of this county, state and nation are convinced that equal and eXac justice is meted out by the courts t( all persons alike. You as jurors i you perform your duties conscienti ously and fairly have rendered jus 1 as great a service to the nation a' the citizen who holds the president office"

CARVED BIBLE
WORTH FORTUNE

As a piece of art the Bible. cary ed and painted from a fiat board by a native of Metlakatla-an out. ward symbol of intense spiritual eX altation-is worth $2O,OOO," Dr. James LaugdOn Hill declared this morning while discussing his trip to Metlakatla yesterday as the guest of MT. and Mrs. H. c. Strong. It is work of genius and there is not a better piece of its kind in existance. '
 Speaking of Father Duncan, Dr. Hill said, Those who follow in his footsteps will find it hard to keeE up for they are the footsteps Of 8 giant" He says that the church built under his direction is almost au exact replica in appearance of West, minister Abbey and deserves its name of the Westminster Abbey of Alas ka.
 The visit to Dahl Head to witness the brailing of fish, so graphically called the silver horde" in Re, Beach's book of that name, was a new and intensely interesting eX. perieuce to Dr. and Mrs. Hill.

Popular SkagwaY Boy Is Drowned
 While Bathing

Skagway was apalled on, Monday afternoon when Martin Conway, Jr. came running to town from Snug. glers Cove, saying that Donald Null 'vihiu while wading at the cove had slipped into deep water and drown led.
 Donald and Martin after doing some work about Martins home had gone over to the cove, and while4 there undressed and waded about inI lthe water, it being a warm day andI the tide being high, the water in the cove was fairly warm. Donald hadl been wading for a short time, whenI he stepped on a rock and slipped in- to deep water-about 12 feet at thel time of high tide-Martin made anI effort to reach Donald and riskedI his own life in the attempt, but wasI unable to reach him and bring him iu. After coming up once, Donald sank to rise no more. Martin hur- ried to Skagway and reported theI tragedy.
 The gas boat Ramona, and Robin sons gas boat were called into rel iquisition and hastened to the cove toI attempt to bring up the body. A nett sof two hundred foot length was talk len over to be stretched across the 3mouth of the cove to prevent the body being carried out to sea by the 3receediug tide. Attempts were made Hoy William Prie5 to dive and locate 8the body, but the water was so cold that nothing could be accomplished 3Captain Cliff of the Princess Ena,
 which was in port, used pikepoles land after many attempts located the body and shortly after succeeded in sgetting the pole under the armpit Band gently lifting it so another pole acould be put on the other side and
 thus the body was brought to the surface.
 The recovery was made about 6:37 after being in the water for more
 than three hours. Efforts at resus-
 citation were made for over a half
 rour. and were continued until Dr. 5W. A. Valens arrived at the cove, 8who after a careful examination pro- 8nouuced the lad dead The remains
 were taken in Robinson's gas boat to 8Jhc Skagway undertaking parlors.
 The deep sympathy of the whole
 community goes out to Mir. and Mrs. Wv. J. Mulyihin and family in the
 great loss which Donald's death has araused them.
 Donald was fourteen years of age Elast April, a member of the Sth grade sof the Skagway public school
 Ia member of the Boy Scouts, land one of the most popular and
 weIl thought of boys in the commun- 3ity. He was quiet in his manners, acareful and painstaking and faithful
 r any work assigned him, and al Iways cordial and cheerful in his re- lIations to all.
 The funeral services will be held .from the First Presbyterian Church 8Thursdav afternoon. at 200 o'clock. 8Interment will take place in the To acaI cemetery.
