This Is Plan Under Consid- eration to Partly Relieve
 Car Shortage.
SHIPMENTS QUIT BX
 SPECIAL TRAINS
(a!ouEaied Thas This Plan Would Bring 3,0OO to 5,0OG Moro Bales of Cotton te Local Congresses Each
 Year, and Save Shippers Money.

To concentrate at Pine Bluff the odd lots and small lots of cotton from scores of small places along it's line, in this section, and to ship that cot ton out of Pine Bluff in trains of 2:5 to 30 cars, is the plan of the Cotton Belt officials of this territory, which and cotton men generally, and whicn so far has met with general approval and approbation.
 Fire and theft cause the loss of considerable cotton at the small sta tions turnout the South, and in this section of Arkansas as much as any
 where else. The plan is for the ra;!-
 road to obtain in this city tract Of ground on which this cotton can be
 concentrated, being brought into the
 concentrating yards in small lots,
 going thru the compress here, and then, with hundreds Of other bales moving by special cotton train 10 some final destination.
 The opinion generally expressed
 so far is that such movement would bring 5000 to 5000 more bales of cot :.
 ton into Pine Bluff each year, would mean considerable saving to the shippers, and at the same time would serve to act as 9 means Of prevent ing the tying@up for periods of days,
 of many railroad cars, this particul arly because the cotton specials" would haul nothing else, and the train could reach it's destination quickly, be unloaded rapidly, and the empty cars could then be put to other use. without loss of time.
 No definite announcement has been
 made by the officials of the road yet
 hut something along this line is ex- pected within the next day or two. Edwin Stewart, assistant general freight agent, and J. w. Dinsmore, SO
 llciting freight agent, of the road whose headquarters are al Little Rock, were here yesterday dlscussins tie matter with local shippers.

Smart Decorations.

Among the decorations which will be used by smart folk this year, ant which are very useful when natural flowers cannot be had, are the paper water lilies and cherry boughs sold in the Japanese shops. These, however generally go with Japanese crockery and they are most often used at the tea given with the afternoon reception. When real water lilies can be had at the florists, it is not uncommon to drop one or two in the punch bowl, where they look pretty and suitable.
