to 18th, inclusive, has asked the Chief
tain to announce that they wish some
Vinita lady. to reign over the coming
exposition as empress. the highest pos

Her duties will be that of chief spon-
ser. She will be royalty robed by the
exposition company. She will be COM
mander Of ceremonies. She will take
part in the great festival parade,
which is expected to be the finest ever
produced in the southwest. She will
be entertained at the Conner Hotel,
Joplin's $1.000.000 hotel during her
reign, all at the expense of the exposi-
tion company. In fact We are inform
ed that nothing in Joplin will be too
good for the empress of the Ozark
Interstate Exposition

as a life long remembrance of her
reign, a token Of esteem presented to
her by the exposition company in the
