WILL WIDEN MAIN
 STREET, 7TH TO 10TH
NAMES COMMITTEE TO LOOK TO EST BLISHMENT OF CITY MAR. KET AND PUBLIC LIB
 RARY.
Committee From Central Trades Coun- cil Not Given Opportunity to
 File d Complaint.

At meeting of the city council last night Alderman Ben Wsil sug gested that City Clerk w. A. Lee write Andrew Carnegie and, ask for donation of $4o,00O to aid this city in establishing a free public library Clerk Lee was instructed to write to the Steel Magnate and It is expected that this action will be responsib lei for some definite arrangement where by Pine Bluff may soon secure a beautiful library building.
 Much other business was transacted at the council session. Mayor Jor dan was not present when the council convened, being at the Elks aiding in the welcome to the Odd Fellows and Alderman Fox filled the chair until his arrival. A committee, composed of Aldermen Johnson, Veil and Hut was named to gather figures looking to the establishment of a city market
 The chief of police was instructed to add number of men to the police force this week and during salr week
 An ordinance was passed establish ing the width of Main street at 45 feet, between Seventh avenue and
 
 The special committee, named sever al weeks ago to investigate as to the water rates in effect in this city, re-. ported progress.
 Alderman E. A. Howell said that the council had no jurisdiction to hear a complaint that was about to be filed by committee from the Central Trades Council on a recent contract awarded by the School Board for painting the Sixth Avenue School, and Mayor Jordan ruled that as one of the councilmen had objected to hear ing the statement of the committee the council should not hear it.
 The committee was headec Dy W. E. Hicks, E. B. Albright and R. A. Pooi. .. They wanted to ask the council why the school board had ignored three bids, the smallest submitted, that were offered by A. J. McGehee, Buster Jones and Willis Condray, for the work, and awarded the contract to McBryde and McCammon, at a higher figure. The committee left the coun- cil chamber indignant at the action of Alderman Howell and Mayor Jor- dan, declaring that they should have 1 been given a hearing before the alder- men. The matter was not put to a vote.

Slouch's New Suit.

In a certain large city there are
two eminent lawyers who, al
though they are often opposed to
each other in court, are great
personal friends. One of them,
Mr.. Dandy, gets his clothes made
by a fashionable firm of tailors,
Cream & Smooth, who dharge
extremely high prices for their
goods.
Mr.. Slouch, upon the other
hand, while renowned as trial
lawyer, is not a society man, and
cares little for dress. His clothes,
he always says, are intended to be
simply "a Clearly covering for the
body" Mr.. SLOUGH is a bachelor,
and his sister, Miss Anna, lives
with him. 80
One day last winter Miss
SLOUGH called at Mr., Dandy's Of

extend only across the back, and pat
ent leather, as well as many colored
feathers, is much used.
Fur trimming Is seen on many Of the
velvet and corduroy coats. White
satin collars and cuffs, inlaid with lace
insertion are also pretty on these
dressy coats. For the coats designed
for play time wear, in fancy worsteds,
serges, chinchillas and cheviots, buttons
form the main trimmings. Those in
pretty colorings to match or blend with
the coat are most attractive. Crystal
and bone buttons continue in good
style.
There is a pleasing variety Of styles
in the dress and everyday frocks for
the little girl, ranging from the sailor
and Russian blouse effects to the
quaint little Empire designs. A be-
witching demure frock made from the
softest silk with border Of tiny rose
buds and forget-me-nots had this EN-

amethyst, or opal may be surrounded
with one or two rows of small dia-
monds, forming square, or a triangle,
with the point extending toward the
knuckle. This style OF ring is particu-
larry becoming TO a long, slim hand. but
will not be SO we'll liked on q short
fingered, chubby hand as the narrow
circuIet styles. This adapting OF the
styles of the ring to the hand Is a
matter that is too often neglected. One
should study very carefully the proper
uCns OF the palm and fingers when
selecting either ring or bracelet, to
get the best results. Massive brace
lets are not for the plump wrist, nor
yet for the scrawny one.
Study also the complexion OF your
hands and arms when purchasing jew
elry. Blue stones, such as the sapphire
or the lapis lazuli. tend to make the
skin appear white; green stones have a
similar effect, particularly emeralds.
Diamonds unless combined with other
stones will emphasize the lost fresh
ness Of an old hand.
More important than the choice of
rings is the selection OF earrings. The
long drop earrings are being much

the waist is gathered. wide sash, or
ribbon-run beading covers the joining
Of waist and diminutive skirt, which
may be plain or have a tiny frill about
the bottom.
Hats and bonnets for the little tads
are quite adorable. For rough and
ready wear are the soft felts and beav-
ers and simple plushes, in jaunty
shapes. Sometimes a bit of ribbon
trims them, or a pert feather adds q
piquant dash to the little models.
When daughter goes a-visiting her
small face is framed in a cunning bon
net, Of silk or velvet, faced, perhaps,
with shirred silk, or chiffon or lace.
If her coat is trimmed with fur her
tiny bonnet may also have a touch Of
fur upon it. Or perhaps a small cluster
Of flowers, or a demure little bunch Of
tips trims the dainty little affair, max

pire waistline A crossed fchu was
drawn into the soft belt, from which
hung a sash at the left Of the front.
The skirt was laid in small pleats
about the waist and stitched fat.
Much simpler, but altogether charm
ing, are the little dresses on which
shocking forms the main trimming.
Challis was used for one Of these,
which was cut all in one piece, very
much as is the PEASANTS smock. A
smart touch was given to the frock by
the over-lay side collars Of white linen,
having sharp points, which covered
part OF the shocking that formed the
waist and sleeves to the neck. The
sleeves were finished with narrow cuffs
of the linen and the low belt parted
in front to reveal several rows of
shocking.
Still another style most welcome on

she insists that they be perfect In
themselves, with all the accessories
chosen with care and tastefulness.
She viii be delighted with a recent
importation that is a decided novelty
and that Will enable her to preserve
the color note Of her gown or suit.
This is a beautiful little watch with
an enamel back, or rather with no less
than SIX enamel backs which are inter
changeabfe, each one being Of diff
ferent color. The watch, with its six
backs, Is most attractively boxed, and
may be worn with a pin or on a chain.
There is scarcely a CLINT of gold In
the show cases OF the jewelry shops
this season. Platinum is the favored
metal for mountings Of all kinds, and
in the dead finish 1t lends a certain
delicacy as well as an artistic value to
the designs.
Another noticeable feature of jew
eled conceits is the prevalence of what
is called the box setting,-that is, the
stones are set deep in the metal so that
the surface is practically fat. Rings,
bracelets and lockets show this setting
almost exclusively.

being especially favored in rings just
