A dozen camels furnish rides for the
children. The reproduction OF the
temple is one Of the handsomest
on the grounds and there are half
dozen special features for each OF

the walls free and it is by all odds the
biggest and best concession on the
grounds.

Som. Things About the Fair.


Ten weeks more remain Of the
Worlds Fair and the big show is re-
csiving an increased attendance. ST.
Louis has settled down to the bust
ness Of caring for the people and the
best time for going to the Fair is
now. 1t Is going to be Q mighty
chilly proposition after the middle OF
October and besides the paint shows
signs Of coming of in places. Now is
the harvest time OF the big exposition
and it is big enough to suit any
body. The Chicago fair did not COM
pare for beauty or expanse with 1t
and the fact that it covers twice the
space and cost three times the money
used in the Columbian exposition
make it we'll worth visit. Those
who miss it will lose one OF LIES
great opportunities.
Those who have beer at the Fair
are asked about the cost, there SEEM
ingly being an idea that everybody IL
robbed in st. Louis. Prices we're high
early in the summer but t"ey are
mighty reasonable now. Nearly
every private dwelling Of the medium
class has a sign Of rooms to rent
The prices range from 80 cents te
$1.OO day. There are thousands o.
rooms within ten blocks OF the
grounds for 75 cents to 81 day IN
private residences.
Hotel rates average higher thar
residences. Pass up all the "World''
Fair hotels" the temporary stucct
and burlap creations that are not fl
for stables. They are not half fillet
and it costs as much to live in then
as in good ones.
Many Abilene people have found
the Fielding hotel fine place to stay
during their visit. 1t is q handsome
brick hotel, opened this summer. Il
is three blocks from the main en-
trance and the Wabash station-hal
q mile nearer the principal part o.
the grounds than the Inside Inn
Two street car lines pass the hotel
M eals are served in large cafe rea
.sonably. Rates 81 a day and up.
Meals on the grounds are reason
able. Roast beef sandwiches seem tt
be the grand staple Of food. The.
cost 10 cents. Good meals can b.
procured on the Pike for 80 cents ant
,passable ones for So cents. Fruit /
about the same as at any city frui
stand. Many carry lunches into tb'
grounds, buying them for 10 cents tt
25 cents outside; then getting COFFEE
or other drinkables to 60 with them
This don't pay; it is too much worl
to carry a lunch all day.

az and under) and what one ea.s
there is no charge except for the
shows one attends. These are most
ly on the Pike, mile long street
lined with attractions and Of course
the most exciting part Of the fair.
These shows started in at 80 to %
cents admission. Now all but two or
three are 10, Is or 26 cents. Most Of
them are worth the money but some
are not. Among the best Of them
are three shows under one manage
ment, New York to North Pole"
"Galveston Flood" and "Battle
Abbey" The first is a very attrac-
tive panorama Of q ships voyage
from New York to the icebound
regions Of the North; the second is a
vivid picture Of the destruction Of
Galveston by real water, and Of its
rebuilding and sea wall; the third, 8
series of panoramss Of great battles
Of the nation with hundreds Of re-
markable relics on view. "Under
and Over the Sea" and thereafter"
are also striking and interesting.
The former 10 remarkable illusion
OF submarine boat and airship travel,
the latter startling journey through
the next world. The Cliff Dwellers
Of Arizona have q very instructive
exhibition. It Is the frst time they
have been moved from home and
their life is well shown. The Esqui-
maux village. is another exhibit that
is worth visiting. 1t has about 40
real Esauimaux and they give an in
teresting presentation Of their mode
Of travel and living. Hagenbeck's
great trained animal exhibit Is unex-
celled in the world and none should
miss that, but you need q whole eve
ming to see all its wonders. Hale'S
fire fighters have . good exhibition Of
modern 6remen's life. The naval
b,ttle show 10 childish-don't waste
money on It. OF course everybody
goes to Fair Japan, for the polite
little Japs are the isvorites Of the
grounds. The Chicago Ferris wheel
has been set up in central part Of
the grounds and gives the best view
Of the entire exposition. The picture
from the 2s5 foot heights marvellous
Iy beautiful and is one that should
not be missed as a part Of the trip.

AN UNKNOWN FIENp.

Cincinnati, Nov. 4.-The police have
practically no clue to the murderer Of
Miss Alma Steinway. whose body was
found yesterday. The general belief
IS that she and two other women who's
bodies were found in the same vicinity
within the past year were victims OF
some unknown fend. who murders FOR
he love of killing. The girl left the
telephone office at Cumminsville at "
o'clock in the night and her body was
found in the lot near the cemetery in the
morning. From one wound the brains
were oozing. another blow had crushed
ier jawbone, knocked out several teeth
md triangular section of the jaw itself.
From the place where the body was
ound blood stained trail marked the
path along which the body had been
ragged. Along this path were found
he imprint of heavy boots, apparently
hose of the murderer
II is believed the girl was waiting for
a Winton road ear when attacked.

An Open Switch CausedAccident
at Fulton.
VIM. Nourse Pinned to the Floor
of His Cab by Flying
Lumber.
NONE OF PASSENGERS HURT

Engineer VIM. Nourse, of Jackson,
Tenn, was badly and probably seriously
hurt, and engine PA demolished as a re-
suit of wreck in the Illinois Central
yards at Fulton yesterday.
MIR. Nourse's face and head were
scratched and bruised one of his ears
split open and chest injured, and it is
feared that he is injured internally.
Passenger train No. 6 from jackson,
Tenn, bringing in the Dixie Flyer con
nection from Martin, split a switch be-
low the state line crossing ON the Ten
nessee side and ran in on a siding and
collided with several freight ears loaded
with lumber.
The collision scattered timber every
where. and several hundred feet were
hurled through the cab, striking, pinion-
ing Engineer Nourse TO the floor of his
engine. Claim Agent NJ. c. Payne, who
was on the train, and the colored fire.
Wan, Mtlt lht lliHl W MS iN1Nut anu
lifted the heavy timber from the wound
ed man. Mr.. Nourse soon regained CON
seriousness and displayed great nerve
walking to the eNpress ear where medic
al aid was administered.
The passengers on the train were only
slightly Jared and none injured.
The front end of the engine was torn
To pieces.
The lumber caught fire in two cars and
the fire department was called to the
scene and hastily extinguished the blaze.
The blame of the wreck can not yet be
determined. The yard crew insist that
the switch was not left open by them
and as no cars were derailed, the theory
of malicious attempt to wreck the train
by unknown parties has been advanced.

MORE PARKER SPEECHES.

Hartford. Conn, Nov. l.-four enthu-
siastic audiences greeted Judge Parker
on his trip through this state yesterday,
and in several other places through
which his train passed he was given
rousing impromptu welcomes.
The principal speech of the trip was
in this city last night, though other re-
ccpiions were held in bridgeport, New
Haven and at Meridcn. where an address
was made from the rear end of the train.
This speech dealt with the question Of
the trusts and the candidate attempted
t. rcfute the charge that the Standard
Oil company is financial sponsor of the
democratic party and charged that the
company's interests are with the repub-
hcan party.
The meeting was held in the opera
house which was filled long before the
hour set TO call the meeting to order.
All entrances were blocked by the time
the candidate was driven to the opera
house and admittance was effected with
the greatest difficulty.
When he appeared on the platform he
was greeted with an ovation that lasted
eighteen minutes.

SOME OTHER SPEECHES

Terre IIaute, Ind, Nov. Nearly
twenty speeches were made yesterday
by senator Fairbanks in western lndi-
ana, beginning at Bloomington in the
morning and concluding with a large and
enthusiastic evening meeting at Terre
Haute. In a brief speech at Newport
Mr. Fairbanks took occasion TO deny the
published report that in the event OF the
democrats carrying the Indiana legisla-
ture he would refrain from qualifying
as vice-president. if elected. and would
remain in the senate. The contingent
cy of democratic majority in the leg
stature is 50 remote that such specula-
ton is idle" he said. 1T is unnecessary
for me to say to You, my friends that,
having accepted the nomination upon the
national ticket shall qualify as vice
president if the administration people 50
will"
In his Charlottesville speech he said

friend of republican institutions we have
had since the time'of George Washing

our democratic friends for trying to
