ARNOLD'S FAIRY.

"Oh, dearl how | hate these old
booksl" said Arnold pushing them
roughly from him. and walking TO the
other side OF the room. Seating him
self ON n low stool he sat with his ell
bows on his knees and his head rest
Ing on his hands, the very picture OF
discomfort and unhapplncss.
why, Arnold dear, what II the
matter7' said his mother. laying down
the paper she had been reading and
looking at her little boy In surprise.
"oh. I'm tired OF doing nothing but
going TO school and Hetting lessons.
hate these old booksi" he said, giving
TO tho poor. unoffending books look
that would have them feel very bad n
they had had any feeling.
There are plenty OF poor little boys
who would be very clad 10 have the
chance 10 20 60 school and learn, as
you have. no that when they are men
they win be better able TO fight llfe'a
battles. and be OF use In the world"
said his mother gently.
Arnold said nothing. but sat with
his head In his hands, His mother
was too wise TO preach long sermon
to him. and so said nothing more.
He sat quite stu, thinking for n
long time, and feeling sleepy. put his
arm ON the sofa near him and laid
his hend on his arm. Before long he
was In drcamiand. far away from
school and books.
He was startled by voice call,
Ing him. and raising his head. he saw
some one standing by his side.
Come. Arnold" said the voice, ~
want you to come with me-"
"Who are youg" asked Arnold, rub
bling his eyes and staring at the stran.

The exhibits were not all complete yesterday, but will doubtless be in good shape by today.
 The Johnson county fruit exhibit IS excellent. A look at the fine ap- ples is enough to make one's mouth water.
 The miniature railroad is one of the most attractive things at the Fair It is the smallest railroa ds in the world.
 The Boston Ladies Military Band discourse very sweet music and make 8 very novel and pleasing sight. The band is drawing card.

 On account of lack of room and ala o to insure safety, horses and vehicles are not allowed to be hltched inside the Fair grounds. There is lplepty of room for vehicles on the outside, however.

 There Is great disappointment from the fact that the ladies' ez~ hibit on the Esecond floor of Floral Hall is not as complete as Fast year. at which time this was one Of the most interesting exhibits at the Fair. The ladies have not been as active this year as last But as the Fair continues for ten days, it Is not too late to send exhibits for this depart ment at once. This should again be made one of the finest features of the Fair.

The Opening Day Attended by at Least 2,OO0 People Finest Races Ever Witnessed in the State.
 -The Result,

The first State Fair h tbe history of Pine Bluff is in progress.
 The gates were formally thrown open Tuesday morning and the first days events were witnessed by at least 2, 1000 spectators. The day was bright, clear and beautiful, and the weather was all that could be de- sired and was most suspicious.
 The events at the Fair grounds were preceded by trades parade at II o'clock. Long before the hour for the parade to move the streets were thronged with an eager and expeetant public. The procession started from the corner of Main. street and Fifth avenue and moved west on Fifth to Cherry street, thence north on Cherry to Barraque, thence east on Barraque to Main, and thence south to the Fair grounds.
 The parade was headed by the Order of Elks mounted on horse back and wearing the emblems of their order Following the Elks came the Improved Order of Red Men, on foot, costumed in the gay and guady habiliments of their pro- totypes in the primeval forests. They marched single file, in Indian fashion, and made cne of the most attl active and unique features of the parade.
 The Red Men were followed by the fire and police departments, the hook and ladder truck coming frs t, followed by the hose cart and patrol wagon. These were all bedeeked in national colors and bunting.
 Then came the Boston Ladies Military band in their bright red uniforms and mounted on large float gayly bedecked with national colors. Ttey discoursed music as the procession proceeded and at tracted no small degre of attention.
 Then came the floats of enterpris- ing business firms and local insti- tuticns, but these were not as many as expected, many of the merchants who had promised floats having failed to get them ready in time. Those that were in the parade, how evev, were quite creditable and the merchants who took part in it deserve credit for their enterprise.
 Among the first of the floats was that of the Branch Normal College (colored) This float represented the industrial department of the university.
 J. H. Talbot & Go. had two floats in the parade, one representing the grocery department and the other the celebrated Tennessee wagon, for which the firm is agent.
 The J. B. Speers Co. had a float represen ting a pyramid made from sacks of Omega flour for which this firm is exclusive agent.

WAS THE WEDDING OF MISS BESSIE FOX AND MIR.
 OLIVER GALBRAlTH.
The Ceremony Was Witnessed by a Large Number of Friends. The Church Artistically Deco
 0rated.

One of the leading social events of the season was the Galbralth- Fox wedding, which was solemnized Tuesday at noon at the Presbyterian church.
 Long before the appointed hour, the church began to fill with the elite of Pine Bluff society, who were all eager to witness the impressive ceremony that was to unite in the holy bonds Miss Bessie Fox and Mir. Oliver Galbralth, both of mare prominent in society circles here.
 Never before had the Presbyteri- an church been so critically decorat. ed, and it was indeed "a thing of beauty and a Joy forever. The. stately palms held aloft their yer dant beauty just at the altar, while ivy was gracefully entwined here and there among the foliage. The deep-toned organ pealed forth the old yet ever beautiful wedding march by Mendelssohn, and anon the wedding procession began. First came the ushers, Messrs. Will Tag gart and M. Pett:grew entered in the left door and Messrs. Curran Niehol and Hubert Strange at the right After these came the beautiful bride who was leaning on the arm of her sister, Nj Pla~sl whc acted as Maid of Honor. Atan opposite door and just behind the two ushers came the groom who was escorted to the altar by MT. Neal Martin, who acted as best2man.
 Miss Fox was attired in navy blue trayehng suit trimmed in black satio with ribbons to match.
 The groom was attired tr conven- tional black.
 The ceremony was performed in a very impressive manner by Rev. J. L. Caldwell
 After the ceremony the bridal party, in company with number of immediate relatives and friends, repaired to the home of the brides parents where an informal recep- tion was held, and at 4:30 left for Jackson, H., to visit relatives aud spend their honeymoon.
 The briae is the charming and ac- complished daughter of Mir. and Mrs. Fred Fox. She is prominent ;n both church and social circles and is universally esteemed for her ac- complishments and beloved fer the nobleness of her head and heart.
 Mir Galbraith, the groom, is the sor Of Mr. and Mrs. R. M. Galbraith and holds a res esponsible position at the Cotton Belt shops, He is a sterling young gentleman Of good moral habits and splendid business capacity, and is altogether well worthy of the hand of the bride whose heart he has won.
 The bridal presents were numer- ous and elegant.
 The newly welded couple have the sincere and heartfelt good wishes of a large number of relatives and friends, with whom the GRAPHIC joins in extending its congratula- tions and good wishes for their future welfare and happiness.
