 CAMP DE KNOX;

Last Saturday afternoon a party of young people left this city for Humphrey. At the bayou near that place a couple of cottages were se- cured, and here "the most pleasant occasion of their lifetime was spert by the young people from Monday until yesterday afternoon, when they returned. From their arrival until their departure the merry round of pleasure was spent in song, dance, fishing, boating and gather ing wild flowers, and it was with great reluctance that the young people took their departure. In honor of the chaperone, who most gracefully and graciously dispensed the duties of her position, the camp was termed "Camp de Knox" Those whose fortune it was to be present on this occasion were: Misses Katie May Wells, Little Rock; Pearl Land Bettie L. Pierce, Warren, Tenn. i; Ethel, Mildred and Frankie Van Val kenburgh, Lutie Dumas. Emma and Eva Mann, Guy, Chester and Jennie Helms, Minnie Cook, Emma Hys- lop, Ray Smart.

The man to whom King Oscar and the Norwegians now look up to as the only one who can possibly settle the Swedish-Norwegian question is the new political leader of Norway, Jacob sverdrup. He occupies the same position and is given the same distinguished consideration as Clad store in England. Both men have many characteristics in common. King Oscar has requested MT. Sver-

THEY PROTEST.
JoBBERs KICK AGAINST RAILROAD
 DISCRIMINATORY.
4 Housing Meeting Held and Commit tee Appointed to Visit St. Louis to Secure Redress Of
 Grievances.

Our merchants and business men are at last, by concerted action, get ting down to business and taking steps to protect their interests and the interests of our city.
 For years past it is we'll known fact that Pine Bluff has been uniustly discriminated against by the rail- roads, and the excessive rates, espe- ciaIly local rates, have been, and are, very burdensome to our merchants and shippers, and this has been allowed to go on and on until the damage to Pine Bluffs trade has been very great. Now, our business men have determined to put an end to this discrimination and, if possi- ble, have the local rates reduced.
 Saturday morning about thirty-fve of our leading business men and ship pers held meeting in the Elk's hall to protest against the exhorbitant freight rate discrimina tions imposed upon Pine Bluff shippers by the rail- roads, or rather the St. Louis South western railroad.
 On motion, Capt. W. $. Jeter was elected temporary chairman. The meeting was permanently organized by the election of Mr. P. B. Byrd as chairman and Mir. Ed. Wertheimer secretary.
 Mir. R. c. Wilkins was called upon to explain the object of the meeting, He gave a detailed account of the injustice that has been done our mer- chants and shippers by the Cotton Belt road He cited the fact that the rate on car load lots of four from Chester, Ills, to Pine Bluff was 30 cents per barrel, while the rate from this city to Magnolia was 54 cents per barrel. He told of con- versation that he had with mer- chant of England a few days ago, wherein the latter expressed pref erence for Pine Bluff over Little Rock, but who asserted that hecould get much cheaper freight rates from Little Rock than he could from Pine Bluff, and that this fact alone forced him to do his trading in Little Rock. It is a shorter haul from Pine Bluff to England than it is from Little Rock to Egland Mir. Wilkins stated that he found that this condition of affairs existed all along the Althei- mer branch of the Cotton Belt road.
 South of Pine Bluff the diserimin- ation is in favor of Shreveport. MT. Wilkins showed that the rate from Pine Bluff to Magnolia was 54 cents, while from Shreveport to Magnolia, longer haul, was only 30 cents. The rate from Little Rock to Grace, seven miles west of Pine Bluff, is the same as it is from Pine Bluff to Grace. In other words a merchant of that place can purchase goods in Little Rock and have it hauled by the Cotton Belt road to Grace just

 ing his refusal he is the actual leader of Norway today, and as long as he remains so there is hope the union between the two countries will be preserved. Sverdrup is 50 years of age, by profession clergyman, and is also distinguished as writer and speaker In 1878 he was elected to the Storthing, became member of the Norwegian Cabinet in 1884 and resigned in 1889 In 1891 and 1894 he was reelected to the Storthing.

as cheap as lie could if the goods were hauled by that road from this city to Grace. The speaker said that the rate on car lots of freight from the west to Pine Bluff was about 30 cents per hundred, while the rate of 47 cents per hundred is charged on all goods shipped over the Cotton Belt either way from this city.
 At the conclusion of Mir. Wilkins remarks Mir. simon Bloom took the floor. He said that 1t was the ex- horbitant local rates that were doing so much injury to the trade of Pine Bluff, and that these rates should be reduced at least 5 per cent. if our merchants expect to successfully compete with the outside world.
 Mir. H. F. Westbrook took the floor. He knew the damage that had been done by discriminations in freight rates. He now wanted to know the remedy and how the evil could be remedied. He favored a bold stand on the part of the busi- ness men, and felt sure that firmness and independence was the best policy when dealing with a railroad corpo- ration. He believed that the mer- chants and shippers of Pine Bluff should purchase a boat and run it in the interest of the city; then, if cheaper rates were not given by the railroads our business men could ship their cotton and get their freight by river.
 MT. F. F. Byrd favored the steam boat idea. He cited the fact that Camden was today getting better rates from the Cotton Belt than any other town in the State. He said this was due to the fact that the merchants of Camden owned and operated boat.
 Mir. Fred Fox said that in his deal- ing with the railroads entering Pine Bluff he had found that thelocal rate on freight out of here on the Cotton Belt was nearly double that on the Valley.
 Several other large shippers gave their experiences, and told of the in- justice that was being practiced against Pine Bluff by the Cotton Belt road, and expressed themselves as being in favor of adopting any method that would cause railroad officials to do our city justice by giv- ing our shippers rates as low as those given to other points in this vicinity.
 On motion a committee composed of Messrs. k. c. Wilkins, P. P. Byrd and Lev Fowler was appointed togo to St. Louis to confer with General Freight agent A. s. Dodge, of the St. Louis Southwestern, and place the grievances of our business men hefore him and ask that these discrimina- tions cease and that the local rates on that roadi out of this place be reduced at least 30 per cent.
 On motion the meeting adjourned subject to call of the chairman.

One of the prettiest gifts this autumn
was sent by an artistic woman to q
pretty bride-elect. It was volume OF
poems by a celebrated author, with
charming Illustrations. This book
was bound in a rich green cloth, very
sparing1y ernamented with gilt. The
outside cover was painted by q clever
artist in branches of cherry blossoms,
the petals dropping here and there, In
the book, solely for preservation. a
white linen canvas cover was neatly
made, and made to fit, so that the book
slipped in and out most easily. This
affair was decorated at each corner
with q conventional design of white
and gilt Of snowy pattern. In the cen
ter was the monogram of the bride and
groom, and running through it q vine

fngly depicted. At the top and bottom
of the cover were broad bands Of white
satin ribbons, which terminated in
small bows with ends. This design of

and no doubt viii find favor with all.
Any book can be chosen, any color se-
Eeefed; but the white flower must
reign supreme as a adecoration for treat

bridal in effect, and more desirable
when completed.
