PLAN WHITE WAY"
 FOR PAVED STREETS
COMMISSIONERS HOLD INFOR- NAL CONFERENCE WITH
 CITY COUNCIL.

The suggestion that the city install a "white-way' system of lighting as a part of it's contribution to the busi- ness street paving district was dis cussed at an informal conference of the paving commissioners and mem bers of the city council yesterday aft ernoon. The council, when the paw ing district was organized agreed to pay one-third the cost of the work, and the commissioners intimated yes terday that so large a contribution might not be necessary and they thought it might be well to install a new street lighting system in the business district before the paving is begun No definite action, however, was taken on the proposition Supt. Leverett said today that a white way lighting system for the district would cost about $2 ,500 to $3,000.
 The commissioners are meeting again this afternoon and will possi- bly, announce the award of a contract for the paving today.

GOOD OUTLOOK FOR
 STRAWBERRY CROP FIRST SHIPMENTS MAY 1
LOCAL GROWERS EXPECT FINE YIELD AND BIG PRICE
 THIS YEAR.

With prospects of good yield and indications favorable to high price, local strawberry growers expect this season to be by far the most prosper ous ever enjoyed since strawberry culture was begun in this vicinity three years ago.
 The directors of the Faulkner County Truck Growers Association at recent meeting discussed plans for the marketing of the crop this year. A new feature to be introduced this year will be the payment in cash at the car for all berries, if the grower so desires. Buyers from diff ferent commission houses will be here during the marketing of the crop and the growers may either sell direct to them and receive cash on delivery, or ship with the association and receive their pro rata share of the proceeds.
 Two carloads of crates are on hand to handle the berries, one having been .unlcaiad yesterday. It is stated that .the acreage s about p Der cent greater than last year

STATE COMMITTEE GRANTS KIRBY APPEAL TO THE
 CONVENTION.

Little Rock, April IT, Senator James p Clarke was declared to be the Democratic nominee for the United States Senate by d majority of 213 votes by the State Central Committee at Il :43 o'clock last night. The additional vote given the senator over that previously shown resulted from the discovery of an error, the only one found, in the verifcation by the committee of the Poinsett county vote, by an examination of the poll books ard tally sheets, delivered to the committee late yesterday by Sec retaly II. 5. Thorne of the Poinsett County Central Committed.
 Judge Kirby asked for and was granted an appeal to the state con vention at Pine Bluff June g.
 The resolution dismissing Judge Nirby's petition of contest and direct
 ing the certifcation of Senator .Clarke's name, together with those of candidates for state offices shown to have been given majority of the votes cast, was adopted by a vote of -E IO o, iOS etNG, d. D. Iledu, " e. Hutton, W. F. Mcknight and M. T.. Sanderson were the only members voting against it.
 The committees action followed a night session, held in the convention hail of the Hotel Marion. during which committee, consisting of the chairman and four members. n the presence of al the other members nd Ionlookers present went over the poll books and tally sheets used in each voting precinct Of Poinsett county.
 Things happened in rapid sequence last night when the veriication of the Poinsett county vote was completed The Kirby supporters had virtually given up the fight, with the adoption ef the Andrews resolution tt the close of the afternoon session. This raso- lution barred any member of the con- mlttee from making a list of the voters in Poinsett county to show how each voted.

SfUTHsRN PLANS FOR DOUBLE TRAgK
Stockholders TO RaAfy $40, OO0
6ond Issue fer Such Work June z.

One of the most important
announcements made by the
directing heads Of the South~
ern Railway is that ofits pur~
pose to extend its double
track from Charlotte south to
Armour, Ga a distance Of
263 miles, just as soon as the
necessary bonds, which are to
be issued within the next 80
days, are sold. A meeting of
the stockholders Of the Attain
ia & Charlotte Air Line Rail-
; way, one Of the constituent
properties of the Southern
Railway system, has been
called for June 2 at which
time the proposition will be
presented of approving a sup
Elemental agre5m ant with the
Southern and also to ratify a
proposed issue Of $40 900, 900
Of bonds at not more than 5
per cent interest 1he proceeds
thereof to be mainly used as
required in the double~track~
ing Of its main line from
Charlotte to Armour, Ga.
This double tracking is SIM
! ply an extension of the dou~
ble~tracking that has been in
progress for the past several
years between Washington
aud Charlotte, all Of this
main line being double track
ed except a few short streches
in Virginia and also a gap of
a few miles length be5ween
Concorl and Harrisburg,
where Rocky River crosses
the line. Just as soon as the
line can be double tracked to
Armour, this will give the
entire main line the proper
equipment for any traffic de-
MAIDS in the future between
Washington aud Atlanta
The fact is we'll k0oWn that
this main line is the heaviest
traffic road in the South and
when it is double tracked it
will provide the greatest con~
yenience Imaginable.
