The Second Annas} !'a.i eixan by the Central Arkansas Far Association has come and eoAe, but there still remains many pleasant thoughts of the eeeae- s;en. As q success t surpassed the expectations of the most sanquine. This fact alone, is s lmcient evidence that the Fair association must take steps to make many improvements on the grounds before the next fair. That Lonolle county people be- leve in, and sanction a drst-Class fair is evidenced bE che patron age accorded this year. Carlisle has the grounds, the endorse meat of the people, and it's now mp to the fair association b Go the rest. Let there be no ex- pense spared in making provisi- ons for the accommodations of the patrons in the way Of in- creasing the seating capacity of the ampitheatre and in beautifg- ing the grounds. Let CarIisle's fair grounds be second to none in the state.

The management are to be eongratu- lated for the success of the Fair which is destined to grow in in terest to the stock growers and farmers of Arkansas.

the aVowed intention of Wrestling the
title Of champion OF the world
from Big Jim Jcffrics, went down TO
defeat the second time today, when
he was practically knocked out by
Jack Twin" sullivan in the nine
teenth round Of what was to have
been a twenty-five round glove con-
test. The fight took place in the Mis-
sion street armory. and was Witnessed
by a fair sized crowd. Squires showed
very little improvement since his last
appearance in the ring. He was
strong. willing and game. Had Sulli-
van been a first class IA he would
have knocked the Australian out early
in the fight. As it was he smashed
Squires in the face and on the stom-
ach all through the nineteen rounds.
Several times he had Squires grog-
gy, but could not put him out. In
the nineteenth round the Australian
was bleeding and weak. sullivan sent
In "a right and left 10 the jaw and
Squires went down. He remained on
the mat eight seconds. and then stag
gercd 20 his feet. Another punch to
the jaw sent him down again, but he
was not knocked out. He got up. but
was promptly sen down again. Ref
cree Billy Roche then awarded the
fight to sullivan.

INFECTIOUS killing at Ellensburg.

Charles Smith died in this city this
morning as a result of injuries receiv-
cd at the hands Of unknown persons
in fight over worthless bedding.
Smith was found at bis shack on
South Water street Sunday morning
and brought to the Valley lodging
house, where his injuries were dress
ed. The surgeon found eight cuts
on the scalp from l to inches long
and places in his skull were fractur-
ed by a three-cornered object. sup
posed to he the blade of a hand axe.
When found Smith was still con-
scious and told the police that the
fellow who committed the murderous
assault slipped up behind him while
he sat upon his front porch, but that
story is believed to be the ramblings
of an affected mind, for upon inves-
tigating his premises they found
strong evidence Of fighting in the
house, and In one corner of the room
a large pool of blood where he had
heen left by his assassin as dead. He
had not been seen for several days.
1t is thought by the authorities the
assault was committed either last
Friday evening or Saturday morning.
When found Smith could give no in
telligent information as to when he
had been attacked

To start a movement that will re-
suit in a general improvement Of the
sidewalk conditions of the city is the
purpose Of r. w. Fletcher, newly
created street commissioner, and he
believes that by means of such a
great deal of good can be accom-
plished.
Since entering upon his duties as
commissioner, Mr.. Fletcher has made
an inspection of the sidewalks in
most portions of the city and where
the walks have been found in poor
condition the attention of the own
ers has been called to the fact. AL
most without exception the property
owners have agreed to make needed
repairs.
There are many property owners
who allow their walks to get into
poor condition simply through neg
lect, and I believe that If we once
get the movement started there will
be general replacing of old walks
that will result in great improve
ment In the appearance of the city,"
declared Mr.. Fletcher today.
within the next few days all those
having walks that need replacing will
be asked to remedy them. Already
several such requests have been COM
Piled with and new walks have been
substituted for dilapidated ones,
while other property owners are pre-
pairing to make improvements short
ly. In some instances the owners are
intending u replace the wornout
walks with concrete.
After ample notice has been given
negligent owners, more drastic steps
VIII betaken should any fail to re-
spond. Under the charter the coun-
Gil mas the power to construct walks
and charge the cost against the prop
erty should the owner fall or refuse
to make the Improvement willingly.

County Clerk Frank Sailing and
ed in working overtime for the pur-
pose of compiling the divorce statis-
tics of this county for the past 20
years. The work is being done for
the department of commerce and la
her, and 1t has proven a task Of mag
nitude. In. order to secure the ne
cessary statistics the department pays
the sum Of is cents for each divorce
suit filed. In cases where the clerk
or his deputies do not care to do the
work special deputies are assigned.
Aside from the names of the par
ties in the divorce suits the depart
ment also asks for much other infor-
nation, such as the nativity OF the
parties, the cause of the action, years
married, influence of intemperance,
occupations, alimony considerations
and other things.
In order to secure the statistics for
the Fast 20 years 1t has been neces-
sary for the clerk to ransack the an
cient archives of the county, and Of
ten it has been with difficulty that
the time-faded handwriting could be
read. In the early days typewriters
were not in general use and all of
the proceedings were written by
hand.
In view Of the above slow progress
was made with the census at the
start, and Messrs. Sailing and Brown
regretted having accepted the offer
OF the government at the figure Of
forced. However. they are now down
to the days Of the typewriter, and the
work can be carried on much speed
Ter than at the start
1t is estimated by Clerk Sailing that
close to 1000 divorces have been ask
ed for In this county during the last
20 years. However. the real num-
Der will not be known until the work
is completed, which will require a
week or two yet.
In the literature sent out by the
government no reasons are given for
the gathering Of the divorce statistics.
and the exact motives are not known.

BLOOMS TROUBLE SETTLED.
Phelps Calls 1t Merely a Family Dis
agreement.

This morning the troubles OF the
Bloom family were aired to some ex-
tent in the county court and at the
conclusion of the hearing the matter
was dropped, 1t being held by District
Attorney Phelps that the case was
merely one of family disagreement.
Bloom was arrested at his home in
Coombs canyon yesterday afternoon
by Deputies Blakeley and Brown. It
had been represented by Mrs. Bloom
that her husband was acting in a
crazed manner and that her life was
in danger. However, the officers had
no difficulty in persuading Bloom to
return. to town with them. and he ap-
peared perfectly rational. In the
court this morning a 24-year-
old son testified that his father and
mother had frequently quarreled, but
the evidence showed both parties to be
at fault. Following the dismissal of
the case all three members of the
family left the court house together
to return to their home.
