THE STATE FAIR.
An Interview With a Tired But Happy
Official, Treasurer Hook.

An Interview With q Tired But HAPPY
Official, Treasurer Hook.
Treasurer George Hook, of the Fair
Association, was busy writing checks
for premiums, employees and others,
when seen by REGISTER reporter, yes
terday. He said:
"We have had good week, and a
very successful Fair, from every point
OF view. The Association is to-day
in better financial shape than
ever before, and we can now
look forward to improvements
with some confidence. 1t was an awful
ly big risk on few OF US last Monday
when we faced the big rain billed for
that night. 1t was enough to make a
man nervous and anxious, and | tell you
it lifted a big load off US when the sun
come out Tuesday, and we had good
weather. Thursday was great
day, and made success GER
tain, and Friday clinched 1t. Hereto
fore we have talked about Improvements,
but we could only make plans, as our re-
sources were too limited and our liabili-
ties too large TO admit OF our
doing what we knew we ought to-.
Now we are differently situated; we
can see daylight; and l think the Direc-
tors will be liberal. The track is
too narrow. 1t is only forty feet wide,
whereas it ought to be sixty feet. To
widen it we ought to move the grand
stand back, and to do that would take
moro ground. The Association ought to
own all the ground west of us. We
can't tell, just yet, how we stand finan-
cially, but we have made a very tidy
sum, and will scale our Indebtedness
down."

LITTLE Rock, Ark. Feb. 1.-THE
Pullman palace ear on the Iron Mount
ain passenger train from st. Louis, due
here at 2 o'clock this afternoon, was the
scene of a dreadful tragedy at noon
to-day as the train was pulling out from
Bald Knob station. 1sador Meyer, a
travelling man for the Foster-IiilsOn
company, of New York, had just trans
ferred from the Memphis train and was
sitting in his seat when man who sat
eating lunch suddenly drew pistol and
fired. killing Meyer instantly. Conduct
or E. W. Leech, of st. LOUIS, was on
the platform, and, hearing the shot,
pulled the bell to stop the train. The
man thereupon turned and fired at
Leech, the shot hitting him in the head.
He fell 10 the platform dead. All the
passengers rushed from the car, one of
whose doors was locked by the porter,
The murderer locking the other,
leaving it with no other oc-
and his murderer. Soon people
ran tc the train from the town,
many of them armed and succeeded in
capturing the murderer. 1t is ascer-
tanned he is an insane man named John
W. Creator, from Vincennes, Ind, a
liveryman, who two weeks ago was
taken home from Fort Worth, Tex, in
shackles, insanity having developed.

pearances.
New York Sun.
At fashionable evening gathering a
philosophical matron said: Zone rea-
son why so many of our American mar
riageS turn out badly is because vanity
is at the bottom of them. Men don't
marry for real companionship, not for
any valuable qualities of mind and soul
which they may perceive in woman,
but in order to become the owner Of a
pretty wife. What a senselrss worship
of lovely faces! What metamorpho-
sis OF the world of affection into the do
main OF dolldom! y spell is set upon
the hOmely girl, while her pretty sister,
10 matter how vapid and vacant her
mind, now shreWiSh her disposition,
how WaSDiSh and arrogant she may be,
is swarmed about by men. 1t should
matter very little to man how plain
his wife may be if she has the qualities
of noble Womanhood. The wise man
has no desire to exhibit pretty doll 10
the public gaze, to be congratulated as
the husband OF pretty wire, to be told
twenty times day that his wife Is the
handsomest woman in the town. Ban
| have no patience with these men
folks; but Oh, howl do rub my palms
together when | read of the cuttings up
of the trckSy little wooden dolls which
become malicious the moment age or
ailment rubs the rud from their waxen
faces!'
Within ten minutes curious illuStra-
ton of the subject was given. wo
girls sat with their backs to me. The
rear view Of their figures disclosed a
close similarity in graceful outlines.
Each creature was beauty in SYM
metry, and each wore dress which
completed the perfection of her con-
figurauon. They were as like as twins
in their ShapellneSS, out not i'll their
behavior. One sat motionless. Not
the fainteSt Shrug Of rounded Shout
der, not a sway of the slim waist, not
wag of the dainty head broke the com
plete inactivity. She was silent, too.
except for few polntleSs, witless, and
even inappropriate monosyllables i'll re-
spouse to what was said to her. Her
duplicate in shape was cOntraStingly
vivaciouS. She talked, not only fluently,
but there was uncommon wit and
humor in her remarks, while her voice
was musical, and her body. as observed
from behind, was instinct with panto-
mimic eloquence. What puzzled me
was the fact that the six men who stoud
in front CT those girls were giving about
80 per cent of their heed to the nearly
dumb and quite inert one, and proper
tionately disregarding the brainy one.
AS soon as might be, the writer went
round to the front. The reader has
already guessed the mystery. The girl
of mind had an ugly face, while the girl
of more matter had positively beauti-
Jul visage.
