With success added to successes the State Fair is gliding along before siasm keeping to a high pitch. Re gardless of the attempted interference of Governor Donaghey with the Sun. day afternoon program. the sched- uled events were handled as oiled be- fore large attendance, estimated at 5000, more than 5000 of whom had come on special trains from various points in the state to spend Sunday here.
 Yesterday the attendance was larger than on any Monday since the State Fair YVES inaugurated. The day was devoted to the Farmers Union and Old Veterans, and both features added materially to the attendance from other cities and counties in the state. Officers of the Farmers Union were present and at this session put into motion the greatest movement that has ever been made in the ad- yancement of Arkansas-the matter acres of the richest soil of the earth in the northeastern part of the state.
 The racing features of the after noon again brought out large at tendance and the three running races all brought thrilling nishes to evenly balanced fields. Three speed events followed, participated in by auto and motor cycle drivers. and rounded out an afternon of sport
 The Nicely Zouaves, under Capt. Deffrey. prove to be big feature of interest for the afternoon crowd, full appreciation being given this band for being the best drilled company in this country. Capt. Deffrey and his associates are popular with Arkan- sans, and their camp on the grounds is the scene of many a pleasant social gathering.
 The Fighting the Flames was pro duced last night in its most realtlstlc form, and to a large throng. The work O fthe Hot Springs fire department, under Chief Bedding: the daring dis play of his life saving brigade, and the perfect organization of his forces exhibited through the Fighting the Flames spectacle, has caused this de- pan.ment to be showered with thou sands of compliments from visitors from all points. The hurry-up ambu- lance run by the Cross ambulance, under Deputy Coroner Eetchervarne, with Miss Ailene Coates as trained nurse accompanying, the caring for the injured rescued from the Flames by the firemen. all go to make the display most realistic

Between Two Thousand Five Hun dred and Three Thousand Work men Are in Danger or Be-

Havana. Oct 1.-The most serious tornado since the big blow of Oct. IF, 1906, struck Cuba early this morning, causing extensive devastation through land In the city of Havana many minor buildings were blown down or unroofed; almost all the trees were uprooted and five persons were killed one by an electric wire aud the others by falling buildings. About twenty-five persons were in- iured
 The greatest damage done was in the harbor. where forty or fifty Iigs.t- CTS, launches and small tugs were either sunk or blown ashore.
 At Casa Blanca great anxiety was felt throughout the osy for the safety of the Ward liner Moro Castle. from New York, and the Plant line steamer Miami, from Key West. Both of these steamers. however. arrived safely at 5:30 this afternoon, having kept off shore for hours awaiting an abate- nent of the storm. The total damage in Havana and vicinity Is estimated at s1,000, ,000.
 The greatest individual loss has been caused by the destruction of half the coal elevator conveyors of the Havana Coal Company at Casa Blanca, estimated at $200.000
 It will be possible to raise the greater number of the wrecked light CTS and other craft.
 Communication with the interior of the island has been interrupted except with parts of Havana and Pinar del Rio provinces. in which the range anu other fruit crops suffered severely. There were heavy floods at vuelto Abajo, the tobacco region. but the Tobacco crop has not been seriously affected beyond the washing out of the seed beds. which. at this season of the year. are capable of renewal.
 Following the heavy rains of the last few days gale began at o'clock this morning which rapidly increased in intensity and reached cyclonic proportions at $40 a. nl., when the velocity of the wind was about 120 miles an hour. The gale came from the south-southwest ari the vortex of the tornado was a short distance west of Havana. The storm continued win unabated fury until 3 o'clock, after which, the rain was inc termittent, with occasional heavy squalls throughout the day. The wind subsided tonight and the indications are for clearing weather Probably days will elapse before the receipt of news from the interior, but it is be- lieved the storm mainly affected the western end of the island At Arroyo Naranjo, which is about eight miles from Havana, the new tuberculosis hospital was blown down and many patients were Injured during the

 Hot Springs, Ark. Oct. l1--W. H. Taft, President, Los Angeles: In con firmation of invitation extended to you by the business men of the Mis- sissippi Valley in Arkansas to visit that territory by rail during your trip down the Mississippi River from Cape Giiardeau. Mo. to Memphis, Tenn, and having personal knowledge of conditions existing in drainage area, and pursuant to unanimous vote of representatives of rarmers' Union
 Arkansas, representing S0,000 -aaai'
 of this state, in session at State 4ais here this morning, respectfully urge upon you not only the pcopriety but the necessity for your personal in- spection of conditions in Mississippi Valley between Cape Girardeau, Mo. may be able as in the case of the Philippines the Panama Canal and Porto Rico, also the Northwest irri- gation area. to personally understand the necessity for action on part of the government. not with view to an ex- tension of credit by the federal gov ernment nor by contribution of moneys. but that you may know the necessity for either the government properly improving the St Francs and Little Riveqs within said drainage

CALL HIS ATTENTION TO NORTH EAST ARKANSAS AND THE AD-
 VANTAGE OF IRRIGATION.
Ast Him to Change Itinerary, Look Owe. Situation and Either Inter. est the Government or Step
 Aside.

Eighty thousand farmers Of ArinI- sas. through the Farmers Union olfi- cers yesterday at the State Fair, srar.- ed movement for the reclamation of Eastern Arkansas swamp lands tna. may cause the itinerary of the presi. dent to be changed in order that a personal inspection of the territory made.
 The farmers have now joined hands with B. + Yoakum. who yesterday was represented through Frank An deIson. hss personal representative. The. commercial organizations of the whole 'eriftory have also been inter este' trough messages sent our, and it is confidently anticipated by ne members of this farmers organization that the greatest movement for the upbuilding of Arkansas ever begun has been put into motion.
 The idea is not to ask President Taft for any special aid from he gov
 
 ton and then ask that e-.-.e government take up the drainage and reclamation of this land or step out of the way and permit the property own CTS to direct the drainage into the nayigable streams, which they can do now with special legislation.
 The farmers appreciate the interest the president has taken in the drain age work of the Northwest. and be- lleve that if he is brought face to face with the opportunity here in this state he will render the aid that is neces sary to develop this section.

We sincerely hope that your proposed trip down the Mis- sisSppi River, which will take you only fiften or twenty miles from a great portion of these lands ray be so changed as to permit your personal inspection of matter not second in importance to the Panama Canal
