DEVELOPMENTS
 ARE AWAITED

Little Rock, June. ..I6-Special
 It is now only matter of hours until something important will take place in the new state capitol situation. It is expected some thing in the way of an agreement will be made with the contractors, Caldwell X Drake, before the end of the day ,Or the courts will be re- sorted to by the contractors. They contend the new commission is not in control of the building for the simple reason they were given no notice of the intention of the commission. Former Attorney Gen. eral w. F. Kirby, when talking about the matter privately yester- day, stated it was his opinion the commission is legally in possession of the building and notice is not required.
 Should the agreement of Cald- we'll & Drake to abide by the de- cision of the board of arbitration not be filed by Monday, Judge Trieber has announced he would withdraw from the board. This would cut off all show for a settle ment in this manner, as the act which created the board did not provide for the filling of vacancies. Should the board of arbitration be passed, the contractors would then have only a chance in the courts, according to leading attorneys of Little Rock, of having the Old ham aad Patterson bills declared unconstitutional, in which event the capitol would merely be tied up another two years, and the con- tractors have to then depend upon the legislature for settlement, ;. about the same as if the matter was passed upon by the board of arbitration.
 Members of the commission state they are going right ahead with the completion of the building, ;, and it would be much to the in terest of the contractors to make an amicable settlement at once and remove the expense and trouble of litigation.

ton may appear: humorous to us it
Is of grave import to the mothers
in-law. The Chinese wives have Or
ganized anti-mother-in-law clubs,
which doubtless will find the ap-
prevail of many American husbands.
The complaint is that the Chinese

body; that she is an autocrat, a posi-
tive nuisance and a bar to complete
happiness between married couples.
The Chinese wife does not object to
being ordered about by her husband,
but she has put her foot down against
being ordered about by her husbands
mother. There can be no doubt OF
the outcome. The Chinese mother
