The Prcttiest Girl I'm st. Louis.

Miss Nellie Pratt, who was chosen by
the votes of the Exposition visitors as the
prettiest of all the pretty girls in the
building, is very handsome and petite
young lady. who carries her honors
easily. She is neither a blonde nor a
brunette, having golden hair, with just
enough curl in il to give q pretty effect to
the we'll poised head. Deep blue eyes,
which the owner knows how to use to the
best advantage, sparkle saucily beneath
dropping eyelashes, and well.rounded
outline, with shspsly arms and bust,
small but well.formed feet and hands,
coupled with neat dress, make an en-
semble that is fair to look upon. Miss
Pratt claims 10 summers to her credit, but
to the casual observer this looks like an
exaggeration. She lives with her parents
at 1105 st. Ange avenue and has admirers
by the score. She is employed at the
Exposition 10 show off the beauties of a
furniture display, and either the display
itself or the pretty attendant always
keeps crowd in the aisle of the eastern
nave. Miss Pratt is splendid CONVEX
sationalist, and while not Of the female
suffrage sort OF strong mindedness, she
has opinions OF her own that she is not
afraid to express. She measures five
feet from the soles OF her feet to the
pretty topknot of her hair, and the card
that falls from the musical weighing ma
chine records Ill pounds as her weight.
Her peschblow complexion and her
perfect teeth are the browning glories Of
this pretty girl, who has been chosen to
wear the wreath as the prettiest girl in
the Exposition.-[St. Louis Rpeublic.

The names on the "burro" ticket are OF

THE CLUB HOUSE FIRE.


Messrs. L. A. Hughes andJ. B. Scroggs,
Mrs. L. L. Bartlett and party arrived
home last night, bringing particulars Of
the sad disaster that belell the party while
camping at the Pccos club house OF the
Santa Fe Mountain clnh.
The cook, George Williams, died from
the effects of his injuries. At O'Clock
yesterday morning Williams, violating
explicit orders not 10 use kerosene Tor
lighting fires on the promises, took can
containing two gallons Of oil and poured
it o"er kindling which lie had placed in
the cooking stove. Goals con
cealed beneath the kindling wood
ignited the fluid and exploded
the can in the unfortunate mans hands,
saturating his clothing with oil which
soon caught up the blaze. TheeXploslln
awakened the campers, who had only
time to gather the most essential part OF
their clothing and flee out Of doors, be-
fore the flames had cnveloped tie entire
building Mr.. j. D. Hughes caught sight
Of poor Williams rolling through the
grass, mass of flame, and trying vainly
to extinguish the blaze, The Messrs.
Huges ran with blankets to smother the
blaze, midst which the man tossed in
agony, while others looked after therescue
of the ladies, but 50 very dry were the
timbers in the building that barely
ten minutes elapsed before every
thing was smoulderiug. The party
lost nearly everything in the shape OF
bedding, wearing apparel, tableware,
fishing tackle, sachels, etc, and num-
Der of silver forks and spoons aud Il gold
watch belonging to Mr.. J. D. Hughes
were also destroyed.
Every care was given Williams. DR..
Rogers, neighboring physician, was
sent for, also Geo. Hebert, for whom
Williams formerly worked, was notified,
and Rev. Father Malachet was called from
Pecos town to be with the man in bis diving
moments. He was terribly burned, though
conscious through it all, and he said he
had no one to blame, for he had brought
the whole trouble Oh himself. He died
at IL O'Clock yesterday and orders were
given to have his remains decently in
tered in the FL Macho cemetery.
As stated yesterday the club house was
uninsured and all told the damage is fully
$500.
