SURVEY FOR GAS NEARLY FINISHED
Believed That Pratt City And Wylam Will Get
 Extensions
(Ensley Bureau)-


 Investigations in Pratt City and Wylam to determine whether gas extensions to those sections would be justified have been almost completed it was announced Wednesday. The work has been under the supervision of the business men of the two sec. tions, and it was understood that the extension would be authorized by the Birmingham Electric company.
 The two communities have been petitioning for gas for many years, il having been stated some time ago that the growth of Pratt City, and Wylam had been sufficient to justify the ex. tensions. However, financial difficult ties of the Birmingham Electric, then the Birmingham Railway, Light and Power company, and other develop ments contributed to the delays that have been experienced. The Business Mems association of Pratt City and the organization at Wylam have encour. aged the gas census, and it was stated Wednesday that the two associations are inclined to believe that the cam. paign has been a success.
 It is understood that practically all

BRIEF FITFUL SLEEP
REST PATENT

WASHINGTON, February 2. -
Life stilE fingered for awhile with
Woodrow Wilson today, but death
was still knocking at his door.
Through weary stretches of the
night and past the dangerous hours
of early morning and soon into the
light of another day, he kept the
grim visitor waiting outside the
portal with an insistence that as
tonished even his physicians.
A little rest, snatched fitfully
from the hours of darkness, helped
to stay for a moment the hand
which had almost extinguished the
faint spark of vitality, making
those by his bedside encouraged
ever SO little but who did not dare
believe there was any real improve
ment.
So weakened was he by full day
and night face to face with death
that there was scarce strength
enough to open his eyes upon the
sunlight of another day.

Judge Sibley Hears Attorneys
On Legal Phases With jury
Excused From Attending

ATLANTA, February 2.-Coun-
sci representing Asa G. Gambler,
Atlanta millionaire, and Mrs. Onez-
ina de Bouchel, in the latter's
100000 breach of promise suit
today argues legal phases of the
case before Judeg sibley, with the
jury excused from attending court.
Contenting itself with introduc-
ton of additional letters from Mrs.

der, the defense in the sensational
half million dollar breach of prom
Use suit sprung a general surprise
Friday when it closed its case with
out launching an attack upon the
character of the New Orleans beau
" and social leader.
I When the defense anopunced it
had rested, Attorney Albert How
ell, Jr., of counsel for Mrs. de Bou-
chel, arose at once asking if he had
heard Alright He called the courts
attention to the fact that the eyi-
dence had been concluded without
any effort on the part of the de-
Tense to prove that Mrs. de Bouchel
was not woman of irreproachable
character, and that it accepted the
encomiums of her reputation in
troduced in the testimony of many
of the leading citizens Of New Or
leans.
Since Mr.. Gambler gave as the
reason for breaking his engagement
to Mrs. de Bouchel the fact that
he had received reports that she
entertained men at night in hel
rooms in a local hotel while she
was chaperon general at the Con
federate reunion in 1919, action
of the defense in closing ats case
without attempting to substantiate
those claims came as a distinct
surprise.
It is believed today that the case
will 90 to the jury before Monday
night, and that a verdict win be
rendered within few hours.
