THE BABY SHOW.

Ninety-two babies ranging in age from one to "A months, and every one of them worthy of a prize, were en- tered in the baby show, which was the feature event on the closing afternoon of the county fair. That the five judges succeeded in selecting from this array of infantile beauty l9 prize winners and escaped even without the loss of hair is an event equally as remarkable as the unexpectedly large number of entries.
 The babies were divided into classes, first and second prizes being given in prize for the best twins and grand prize for the prettiest and best baby of any age in the show. The last named prize was pretty diamond ring, given by Governor Donaghey.
 The grand prize was won by Chris topher Thurman Johnston, the 21- lmonths-old son of MT and Mrs. Wal ter Johnston, who make their home with c. A. Simmons and family, in the southern part of this city. They moved here only about three months ago from Heber, and there are today no prouder parents in the United States than Mr. and Mrs. Johnston. The handsome little boy received two prizes, the first prize in the class in which he was entered, Is to "A months, and the diamond ring, and his mother received an elegant five-pound box of candy, presented by Caspar Dunn.
 The judges in the contest were Ben L. Griffin, J. K. Little, Rev. J. M. Den
 son, Allen White and R. A. Reynolds. After the prizes for each class had been awarded the judges selected from the prize-winners the baby for the grand prize. They state that their

K. R. COMP PANY'S
 SIGNATURE ON

Secretary G. L. Banner of the Board of Trade this morning received pc tition for the organization of the Con way waterworks improvement district, signed by the duly authorized repre- sentatives of the St. Louis, Iron Noun tain and Southern Railway Company, which adds about $40,000 in value to the petition. Several days ago the tex commissioner of the railway com pany wrote to the Board of Trade signifying the willingness of the com pany to join in the petition, and the signed instrument was received this morning.
 Now that the county fair is out of the way it is the intention of the can vassers to push the work of securing signatures as rapidly as possible, in order that the district may be formal ly organized and the commissioners appointed to proceed with actual work. It is thought that the final petitions will be presented to the council either at it's next regular meeting, October 12, or the one following, October 26.

COURT DISALLOWS
 MILLICAN COSTS

In county court this morning Judge J. A. Lea disallowed the. claim against the county for the costs in the case of the state against L. E. Millegan, amounting to $51S.75. Millegan was convicted of murder in the second de- gree for killing J. C. Herring, and sen tenced to 10 years in the penitentiary and the costs accrued during the trial of this case. Judge Lea explained his action by stating that the law makes the defendant liable for the costs when he is convicted of a crime and renders any property in his possession at the time of his arrest subject to execution for the costs. In this case Circuit Clerk Ledbetter issued an execution for the costs, but it was returned by Sheriff Brady with the endorsement that no property was found. Judge Lea states that Millegan executed a
 mortgage after his arrest for two mules, a horse, buggy and a wagon, and says that this property is liable for the costs and has instructed Sher- fir Brady to take possession of it.

MRS. DAVENPORT
 WINS THE MULE

The S125 mule offered by the fair association to the person holding the lucky number at the fair grounds on the last day fell into the hands speaking figuratively, of course-of Mrs. s. F. Davenport of this city, who held ticket bearing the number 3455. Each person buying ticket to the fair was given stub bearing the same number as his ticket, and the tickets were deposited in a box. Be fore big and interested crowd in the grandstand late yesterday afternoon the drawing was had. Two numbers were drawn and called out without anyone presenting the duplicate stub, but when the third number was called Mrs. Davenport announced that she held the correct number
 The fair association advertised that it would redeem the mule for $125, and Mrs. Davenport accepted this alterna- tive. At the Faulkner County Bank this morning she was paid six $20 and one $5 gold pieces.

EDUCATIONAL DAY AT FAIR.
 Hot Springs, Oct. S.-This is edu- cational day at the big state fair at Oaklawn. A special program consist ing of addresses and various exercises was given in the auditorium this morning. There was large attend ance at the meeting, as many schools throughout the state closed in honor of the day, at the request of the fair association and State Superintendent George B. Cook. It is one of the best special days in the history of the fair. Field sports, football game and big boby show and parade are entertain ing the crowds this afternoon
 The officials of the fair are gratified at the interest which has been taken throughout the state in the art, tex tile and culinary departments of the exposition. There are more and bet ter exhibits of this kind than antici- pated.
 Tomorrow will be Arkansaw Tray elers' day, one of the really big days. Elaborate plans have been made for the occasion.

PULASKI VALUES
 MUCH HIGHER

Little Rock, Oct. S.-While the off cial figures on the tax assessment for Pulaski county will not be known un- til the board of equalization makes it's out on the tax assessment books, the information was yesterday from au- thoritative sources that the increase in the assessment will be $l0,000,000 or higher.
 The assessment as made by County Assessor Moore shows an increase of 6,S25, ,2S0 over the assessment for 1908. The real estate assessment for 1909 is $15,333, ,970, against $10,754, 455 for 1908, the increase being $4,- 579 9,515. The assessment on real es- tate improvements this year is $8,- .610 ,365, against $7,035,92O for 1908, an increase of $1,574,455 The total assessment on real estate and inn proyements is 23,944,3 1885, against .$17, 1875, the increase being $6,- 153,9 The personal property was assessed at $8,510,44 in 1909 and at .$7,839,120 in 1908, an increase of $671 ,320.

Business has resume d it's normal status in Conway again, following the close last night of the most success ful event ever held here, the first an- nual Faulkner county fair. Although two-thirds of the midway shows had departed for the state fair, there was another big crowd out last night to witness the final fireworks display. During this show Ben l.. Griffin, on behalf of the fair association, pub licly thanked the Layton Amusement Company and M. B. Pletz, who put on the fireworks and other side srStrac- tions, for the splendid amusement they had given the people, and at his sug gestion the crowd in the grandstand rose to their feet to express their ap- preciation.
 That there is a distinct and definite demand for a county fair; that the first effort was a decided success, and that it will become an annual event, is the opinion of everyone in any way connected with the fair Plans for next years fair are already being discussed and there is every reason why a still better fair can be given after the eX- perience already gained.
 A most remarkable feature of the whole event was the absolute lack of any disorder or unpleasantness at any time. The big crowd was full of fun and everybody seemed to be thorough ly enjoying themselves and there was not the slightest indication of any de- sire to break either the rules of the fair or the laws of the state. In ad- dition to this, with big crowds packed together, sometimes so tightly that it was impossible for one to move, there was not an accident or any injury worthy of mention. Finally, with four days of perfect, cloudless weather and pleasant temperature, the fair asso-
