WILL ARBITRATE
 CANAL TOLLS BILL
SENTIMENT LOOKING TO PEACE. FUL SETTLEMENT OF ISSUE
 IS GROWING STRONGER.
Democratic Leaders Are DisaDpointed Now That There Will Be No Vote Taken on the Issue by Next Monday.

Washington, May 1S.-With the canal tolls exemption controversy nearing a vote, sentiment in the sen ate is growing in favor of an effort to substitute resolution which would provide for the submission of the dispute between the United states and Great Britain to m inter- national tribunal.
 Althouph senators who have dis cussed this proposal are not sure t will win, they claim many of their colleagues are willing to adopt this course.
 It was said tonight that Senator O'Gorman, leader of the forces fight ing repeal, will not consent to arbii- tration and the proposal undoubtedly will meet with vigorous opposition among senators on both sides of the issue It was pointed out, however, that before the house passed the re- peal President Wilson was willing that the question should be settled by arbitration.
 During the day three senator's two republicans and one democrat added their voices to those who see in arbitration the best way ont of the difficulty. Senator Sutherland made a vigorous speech on the ex- cmption repeal bill, asserting that ar bitration was the one way to settle the dispute.
 Senator Williams announced that he would gladly vote for 1t and Sena- tor Works agreed that this plan was desirable. A resolution providing f+ submission to arbitration has been introduced by Senator Norris and may come up for consideration be fore a vote on the repeal itself is demanded
 On the republican side today it de- yeloped that Senators Root and

Lodge, as well as others prominent in the fight for repeal, would favor arbitration
 twothirds vote of the senate would be required to pass an arbitra- ton resolution Those opposed to the idea pointed out that arbitration would mean a long delay and that ip the meantime the canal would be opened and operated and many com plicadons would arise, no matter what the decision of the court might be.
 No effort apparently has been made on the democratic side to sound out senators on tho plan
 Democratic leaders who expected q vote on the repeal biil neXt Monday discovered today that the dhanc | for this hope being realized wal growing slim. Senator Jones gave notice today of his intention to speak on the repeal bill on that day and it was understood that other senators might not decide to speak before Monday.

nNE of the prettiest models for lit V tie girls dresses is from the estab- lishment of Berthe Raulin, and it's daintiness and simplicity speak well for the Paris modiste. Fine null or batisto is the fabric upon which there is a moderate amount of hand em- broidery in eyelet work and fiat daisies.
 The scant fullness of the dress is provided by single box plaits at the front and back There are two at each side of the middle panel. The lower edge of the skirt is cut in squares at the front, back and each side A hounce of imitation. an-over val lace, edged with a narrow edging of the same kind of lace is set in at each of the square openings. This gives plenty of freedom at the lower edge of the skirt.
 There is a border outlining the low CT edge of the batiste. of a strong lace in Irish crochet pattern. The em- broidered daisies are applied to both the batiste and this lace.
 There is a yoke and collar in one
The Sentinel=record., 1914-05-19

of embroidered batiste edged with the same lace. The sleeves are of the alLover val edged with the same lace as that in the bottom of the skirt and on the collar This collar ex- tends over the top of the sleeves like a wide epaulette
 A soft ribbon. about five inches wide, is drawn through the skirt where the founces of val lace are set in. A short space is left at the side of each founce. The ribbon is threaded through this. It extends under the skirt. from one space or slash to the next and is tied in a knot at the front and in a flat bow at the back
 Small fiat crochet buttons, barrel shaped are placed in four groups of three each up the front and back The dress fastens with fiat pearl buttons under a fly at the back
 It would not be easy to find more beautiful or delightfully childish model than this, which is in the best mode of the French designs of children's dresses

AN ARKANSAS FLAG'
 HAD BEEN ADOPTED
ONE UNVEILED AT ARKANSAS STATE FAIR SEEMS TO HAVE
 BEEN SECOND ONE.
Arkansas History Commission Un- VeiIs Some Interesting History of q Flag That Was Furled in Civil War Times.

When with much pomp Snd cere- mony the "flaeless" state of Afkan- sas was given an official flag at the Arkansas State Fair, it was pro. claimed that this was the first off 1 cial state flag Arkansas had ever known. But that Arkansas adopted state flag in lSGl, is tue belief of Dallas Herndon, secretary of the Ar kansas history commission. In a let ter to Miss Mary C. Simms of Barr well s. C., who is gathering informa- | ton on state flags he states that the secession convention of the stare on May p. 1861. adopted a resolution ap- 1 pointing a committee to select a flag and device for a coat of arms. AL though he cannot at present find any record of a flag or coat of arms being adopted at that time, he thinks per haps they were. The general assem- bly, of 1913 adopted state flag. which is thought to have been the first for Che state to have.
 The letter, ill part, follows:
 Now with reference to the action taken by the state of Arkansas con corning the adoption of a state flag after secession The Arkansas seces- sion convention held its first meeting from Monday March |. 1861, to Tues day, March 21, 1SG1 and adjourned after passing an ordinance to submit the question to the people of the state But before the election was held President Lincoln issued his call for troops. and thereupon the president of the convention issued a proclamation for called session of the convention.
 This second session of the state convention met in Little Rock on May G, 1861, and at 4:10 o'clock in the afternoon of that same day the ordinance of secession was passed by a vote of G9 to 1.
 "On Wednesday, May %, 1861, C. w. Adams, delegate from Phillips county, introduced resolution, which l quote in full, viz;
 Resolved, That a committee of three be appointed by the president to select and report for the action of the convention a suitable device for flag, and also for a coat of arms for this state
 "The resolution was adopted, and on saturday. May 25. the minutes show that Mr. President appointed as committee to select device for flag and coat of arms Messrs. Adams of Phillips, NJ. g. Kennard of lnde- pendence, and w. w. Watkins of Carroll.
 Again on Wednesday, May %, the minutes show that Mir Watkins pre- sented communication from the ladies of Little Rock, accompanied by device for a state flag, which, on his motion, was referred to the select committee appointed to report a flag and device for coat of arms.
 ''The secession convention ad- iourned on June 9, apparently with out having heard from the select committee on the subject of the flag etc. At any rate. I find no further mention of the matter in the pro ceedings of the convention

Our Republican friends are

Our Republican friends are
greatly panied by the fact thai
for the first time in years, the
state tax levy did not take a big
jump upward and few simple
facts show conclusiVely that the
Hodges administration has been
the most economical of any adj
ministration for years. The
Stubs ADMINISTRATION spent all
the money it derived from state
taxes in 1912 and in addition,
spent two hundred and sixty-five
thousand (265, 100000 which it re-
ceived from the inheritance tax.
The last Democratic legislature
abolished the inheritance tax and
the state has received no income,
since them, to take its place. so
that the Hodges administration
has less to spend than did the
Stubs Administration and the fact
that it kept within the income,
demonstrates that all this Repub-
lican Bull Moose talk about the
Hodges administration having
spent more money than the Stubbs
administration, is pure and una
dulterated moonshine. There is
nothing to it. And when next
July rolls around and the state tax
levy for 1914 is actually reduced
by the State tax Commission, our
friends will have received jolt
which ought to hold them for
awhile.

Another boy has made short
hand a help in furthering his edu-
cation is Ernest r. Chamberlain,
who spent q month in Dougherty's
Business College on short hand
and typewriting, then after addi-
tional work at home, passed q civ
IL service examination with so
high a grade that he was quickly
offered a good position with the

gives him a good salary, yet en-
abIes him, outside of Office hours,
to carry on his college studies in
