COL. FORDYCE In TOWN.
ARRIVED ON HIS SPECIAL CAR LAST
NIGHT.
Took a Drive over Town This Morning
and Talks Electric Street Cars
This Afternoon,

Col. s. w. Fordyce, President OF
the Cotton Beltrailroad and a direc-
tor of the st. Louis Trust Company,
arrived in the city, accompanied by
his son John and number of East
ern bond-hoiders in the Stuttgart
and Arkansas River Railroad, ON
his special car Arkansas Traveller, .
about 10 o'clock last night. This
morning Col Fordyce and his son
and Mayor Goldsmith and Attorney
S. NJ Taylor took carriage drive
over the city and reviewed the track,
stables and property of the street
car system, after which they adj
journed to the Citizens Bank where
Col. Fordyee met and Informally
presented and discussed the situa-
tion to number of citizens. Col.
Fordyce stated that his work was
purely labor of love and that be
was IAN accommodation man" rep
resenting the St. Louis owners of
the Pine Bluff Street Railway.
These gentlemen, he explained, pro-
pose to convert the street ear sys-
tenn into an electric line provided
the citizens of Pine Bluff will sub
scribe for one-fourth of the capital
stock of the company.
1t is is proposed to organize a
company with a capital stock of
800, 900 or $12O, 600 to convert the
street railway into an electric
system, one-fourth of the capital
stock of which must be taken by
Pine Bluff capitalists. If this is not
done, Col. Fordyce says, the owners
will tear up the tracks and sell all
their lands, cars and rails for Just
what they can get and totally with
draw from Pine Bluff. He argues.
and correctly, too, that an electric
line would pay a. least 10 per cent.
per annnm on the money invested
and that it would give new impe-
tus to affairs in this city.
Only a few gentlemen were pres.
snt this morning, and it was decided
to adjourn the meeting until 4
o'clock this afternoon, at which time
meeting will be held at the Bluff
City Club Hall and Col. Fordyce
will again present the views of the
st. Louis owners of the street rail
way and their proposition to change
it into an electric line.
Col. Fordyee and party will remain
in the city until tomorrow morn
ing, at which time they will leave
for tour of inspection over the
Stuttgart and Arkansas River Rail
way.

HOW THE CHILD THINKS.
Professor Barnes Says Its Mind De
velops According to Rule.

The mind of the child, beginning with
infancy, develops according to definite
laws and in doing so passes regularly
through successive stages, regardless of ef-
forts that may be made to have some of
them skipped over.
That was the central thought of Profes
sor Earl Barnes lecture last night in the
hall of the Academy of Sciences.
His deductions were founded upon data
collected during the last few years by him.
self and his coworkers in the educational
department at Stanford University from
thousands of school children in California
and were substantiated by similar conclu-
sions reached by special investigators in
the East and in Europe.
A little girl had been given some paint.
When her mother was downtown she
painted the parlor chairs, and on her
mothers return asked her to come in to
see how beautiful she had made them.
This story was submitted to over 10000
California children between the ages of
and 16 for each to write what the mother
should have done with the little girl. 1t
was found that the youngest children ad-
vocated corporal punishment, in. many
cases of much severity and cruelty, while
the oldest children were the most lenient.
the PROPORTION favoring leniency or mild
remonstrance increasing regularly as the
maximum age was reached.
