PINE BLUFF AND RAILROADS.

The last report made by the com mittee soliciting stock subscriptions and donations for the Rutherford road shows that $34 .0O0 has been sub seribed for the proposed Rock Island connection and in some instances it was like pulling eye teeth to get some of the wealthiest property own CTS ip this city to subscribe.
 We are at loss to understand why business men. men of finances and men who ought to realize the value of three additional railroads or one railroad, for that, display such little interest in so worthy an enter prise; one that will undoubtedly aid greatly in the immediate develop ment and upbuilding of Pine Bluff. One of the wealthiest men in Pine Bluff, large property owner, we are told, has not subscribed one cent to the Rutherford road. Now. isn't this nice state of afafirs? 4 man who has accumulated his all within the confines of this now progressive little metropolis, absolutely lays down when the welfare of his city is at stake. He has sense enough to know that every dollars worth of stock subscribed for in the Ruther- ford road will return to him ten- led in dollars and cents. Of course, lA1 map and others have 2 perfect

LITTLE JOE
 IS INAUCURATFD
Georgia Has New Governor, Joe Brown Succeeding HOke Smith, There Will Be No Pomp in the New Administration.

Atlanta, Ga, Junt 26. - Josepl Brown today was inaugurated gov ernor of Georgia, succeeding Hok, Smith.
 ] Atlanta, Ga, June 25.-Hoke Smitl
 is ex-governor of Georgia, and Lit
 tie Joe Brown, victor in the mos bitterly contested battle ever wages between the Smiths and Browns
 rules in his stead. The passing ot the radical Hoke and the induction into office of the conservative Lit tie Joe" was accomplished today with
 true Democratic simplicity and with
 manifestations of hearty good will for
 both men on the part of the great as
 witness the momnetous event.
 All the ceremonies connected with the inauguration took place in the
 House of Representatives in accord ance with time-honored custom and for the additional reason tAat Gov ernor Browns voice was too weak to permit of his addressing a large out side crowd He came to town to be inauSurated in street car.
 All of the hatred generated dur ing nomination has died out, and the charge that Brown was the friend of the railroads, the corporations and the distillers and intent on over throwing the prohibition law, is no longer made. In his little trips through the state since his election he has made himself profoundly pop ular by his, unaffected simplicity and democracy, and many of the Smith adherents who denounced him as a rascal during the campaign were in the crowd that gave lusty cheers in his honor today.
 Governor Brown is a resident of Marietta, Ga, where he has lived for two decades. and is popularly sup posed to be wealthy. His election was looked upon as a victory for the con- servative elements and as an indi- cation that the people had tired of the radical activities of Hoke Smith.
 During his term of office Governor Brown will have two residences the official one in Atlanta, and the family home in Marietta, where he and his wife and children may spend and Sundays and what ever brief vacations he may be able Q take, in domestic simplicity. away rom the cares and responsibilities of ,ffics. His stays at his old home will 'e about the only recreations or ab- 'ences from Atlanta Mir. Brown will i

Cambridg, Mass, Wee 6-Charles
w Eliot, pres sident or emorltus of

woman's highest field OF activity is IN
the home, and decries the effort of
many women nowadays to push their
way into occupations more distInc-

that for the normal woman the most

President Eliot says in part:
The women who follow the ordi-
nary professions of men. who keen
shops. carry on business or devote
their time TO the laborS Of church or
charity will. as a rule, contribute far
less to the development of themselves
than the normal woman who practices

opportunities of developing the best in
