THE FAIR.

a visit to the office of the Southern Kan
| saS Fair association will convinc e the
most skeptical that the fair of 1890 will be
the greatest that has ever been held in the
southwest. The interest which is being
taken by the merchants is commendable,
and to a stranger might appear wonderful.
The question which seems to be most
prominent at the present time is, "What
can | offer as a special premium, that will
attract the most attention?' Some have
already determined that, and it is hoped
i'll few days to be able to record the list.
The premium list is still receiving atten-
ton, and it viii not be saying too much to
say this list will be most complete of its
kind. The floral department has been pre-
pared with especial care by those familiar
with the care and culture OF flowers, and
the association has promised to place more
space at the disposal of the exhibitors in
this department, which will be very de
sirable. Several prominent florists are al
ready arranging to display The fine arts
department has also received special atten-
ton ndthe display promises to be in keep
ing with the arrangements. On Friday
last, Mr.. w. A. English met with Messrs
McNair and Wilson at the fair
grounds and the preliminary steps
were taken toward improving the grounds.
1t has been proposed to move the grand
stand back from the track in such manner
as will prevent the sun from striking the
occupants 50 squarely in the face. This
would be great improvement, and would
be beneficial i'll many ways The art hall
will be rebuilt about forty feet north of its
former location, and it is now contemplate
ed to build a gallery around the entire
structure. Floral hall will be north of art
hall and agricultural hall west of art hall.
The space west of the avenue will be used
for the display of agricultural implements,
wagons, buggies, etc, fine stock, hog and
sheep pens and poultry houses. Mr..
English has already given directions to
have the surface broken, levelled, rolled
and sOwn in blue grass, clover, etc, which
will by the time Of the fair be more pleas
ant than the sand burrs of last year The
hill at the lower turn of the track will be
cut down and the bushes removed so that
there will be no trouble to see the horses
for the whole mile, and with such field of
horses as viii answer ''the bell' this is
very desirable. 1t has been suggested that
a base ball game be given on the grounds
one day during the meeting, but the secre-
tary has not yet determined whether it can
be arranged or not. II it is decided to have
the game it has been suggested that the
clubs chosen be such as viii give the peo-
pie good game. Let the home club get
themselves in shape to meet any or all
co,DaVS of tho fair

COMMISSIONER PRICE.

Mr. R. r. Price, of Hutchinson, one of
the state worlds fair commissioners, was
in the city yesterday. He came for the
purpose of consulting the executive COM
mittee of our board of trade relative to
Wichitas interest in the coming event.
He assured the members of the board with
whom he COnversed that he should use his
best endeavors to meet and carry out the
wishes of our city in placing her before the
world during the exhibition. After what
has been said in the EAGLE in reference to
Mr.. Prices appointment, which state
ments were made under a misapprehen-
sion-the effect of misinfOrmation-th
EAGLE is gratified TO record this cordial
expression and earnest assurance from
him, and to assure him in return that it
has no desire or inclination to place him in
a false light. Mr.. Price declares that he is
an Arkansaw valley man. distinctively
that his material interests in the state are
exclusively here. Wichita viii cooperate
with a will to place Kansas at the front
where she always appears-at the worlds

internal arrangement IS calculated TO pre-
sent a cosy and comfortable and yet ele-
CANT appearance Not until one is seated
does he realize the full beauty of the in
terror arrangement and comprehend its
spacious seating capacity.
Graceful curves and massive pillars char
acterize the design and the whole is mag
nificentIy and deliberately frescOed. Every
chair commands alike full and uninter-
rupted view of the stage and is constructed
for comfort and elegance. Probably more
care and skill were devoted to the con
struction of the stage than to any other
portion of the building, and no more COM
plete or perfect stage can be found any
where. The sounding board has a pitch OF
one hundred and ten feet. It's dimensions
are forty by sixty feet in dept b and all its
mechanical arrangements are thorough
and convenient. The proscenHum is seven
ty feet in height and ten feet in depth.
Two tiers of elegant and spacious boxes
line the sides and are furnished in the most
luxurious style. The basement, OF
rather lower half story of the
building is devoted to store rooms
on the front ard north and the remaining
space contains the heating apparatus, en-
CINE and machinery. The third story
front contains a dance hall forty by
seventy-five feet, waiting rooms and ladies'
and gentleman's reception parlors all of
which are large and airy and furnished in
the most expensive aad elaborate style.
The managers Office, box office and check
rooms are in the second story on either
side of the grand entrance. Besides the
iron ladder fire escapes which would
never be called into re QUESTION except by
the firemen there are exits aggregating
over twenty six feet and the entire build
ing filled to it's utmost capacity can be
emptied in three minutes without con-
fusion. In event of an emergency this
time could be considerably reduced. The
seating capacity is for 1902 persons and the
first cost of the building was S104, 900.
Since that time several thousands of dol
lars have been spent on interior decora-
lions. Its floor is perfectly dead TO sound
and is constructed in three thicknesses.
The acostic properties of the theatre
are such that when the bu ilding is empty
q pin dropped on the stage may be heard
in any portion of it, and yet there are no
reverberations. Public speak
ers find that they can speak from its stage
with the greatest ease and distinctness.
The drop curtain is pronounced a grand
work or art, and no attempt al description

SANTA FE FAST TRAIN.
From wichita to the Missouri River.

The Atchison Topeka & Santa Fe com
pany today starts a fast express to leave
Wichita at 1910 p. m, which viii arrive at
Kansas City at sis p. m, connecting with
the fast trains east, thus reducing the time
three hours between the two cities. Pass
engers leaving Wichita at noon viii arrive
in Chicago the next morning.
Returning from Kansas City the fast
train leaves at $50 a. N. and arrives at
Wichita at 40 p. m.
The new time table. which takes effect
today. Is one of advantage to Wichita in
more ways than one. 1t enables a business
man TO leave Wichita at noon, reach
Kansas City in the evening remain there
one hour and twenty minutes and return
to Wichita by 40 the next morning in
time for business. Passengers leaving
Wichita at 4:l0 p. m. reach Denver the
next morning at 10.35. Going south it en-
ableS the passengers to leave Wichita at
40 a. m. and arrive at Guthrie, Okla
homa at l:52 p. m, Purcell at 30 D. m, or
by leaving at 40 p. IN. reach Guthrie st
9:45 p. m. This fast train VIII necessitate
the Rock Island road TO increase their
time between here and Kansas City. and
also the Missouri Pacific and Frisco to
put on fast trains between St. Louis and
Wichita.

1t will be noticed by the above table that
Wichita now leads Nebraska City and
Lincoln, Neb., Ottumwa, Keokuk, Des
Moines, Marshalltown and Oskaloosa,
Iowa, and st. Joseph, Mo. While in this
statement she is the eleventh packing
point, she will soon crowd Cincinnati for
ninth place, and will soon be occupying
the fourth place in the pork packing of
this country. st. Joseph and st. Louis
are the only points which shows a decrease
in their packing. 1t is safe TO predict that
with the immense amount of old corn in
the country and a reasonable good crop the
coming season, that the increase in the
pack win make showing that will be as
much of surprise to our own people as it
is to others. There is no country that can
grow such corn or such quantities of it
which viii produce as healthy and fine
hogs as this,
