Down For Treatment Accorded

Little Rock, Ark, Sept. 29.-Ow-
ing, it was said, to misunderstand-
ing that arose between representa-
Itives of the state fair and officials
of the Hagenbeck- Wallace shows in
Pine Bluff yesterday, rather stormy
session took place in the office of
Mayor Waters this morning when the
circus officers called to arrange for
the payment of the parade license.
Arch Wadley and Row Brown
went to Pine Bluff, carrying a let
ter to Mr. Hagenbecks son, who,
President Westcott of the state fair
association, who wrote the letter, be-
lieved was with the show. The let
ter recalled the pleasant association
at school that President Westcott
had enjoyed with. the heir of the cir
Gus ..magnate and asked permission,
for the sake of old times, to place
state fair banners on the elephants
and camels and to include other
! state fair advertisements in the big
gus parade =. :, D.,
1t was stated today by the circus
officials that the person to whom
the letter was delivered was an en-
ploye who had been placed temper
arily in charge at one of the main
ticket wagons, and when Messrs
Wadley and Brown delivered the
letter they were "balled OUT in
great style by the circus man, who
proceeded to deliver a TRADE against
Arkansas generally and Hot Springs
in particular, saying that the state
was so rotten that you could smell
= rkansas before you reached the
4 state slime" and consigned the state
fair and the people of Hot Springs
to climate considerably hotter than

Tuesday evening, and now a game has
been arranged at Y. NJ c. A. for Fri
day night of this week, when the sol

Then the series with Palama will be
continued next week, when the Pa

Tuesday evening. Should Shafter win
this game, it will end thd series, for
there We're but three games arranged,
the Victors to be the winners of two
AS Shafter won the first, the win of
the next game would put them all to
the good rs far as this series is con-
cerned.
Other athletics at the fort are rather
at standstill just now, the soccer
season being over for the soldiers, and
nothing being done in baseball as yet.
In the swimming tank the men are
getting together often and hope to de-
velop-a team which will be able to
compete upon equal terms with some
of the town teams in water sports
within q few months.
So far the men are all amateurs, and
when they go up against a town team
which has a number of what might
be called professional swimmers, they
are outclassed from the start.
On the alleys. too, the men are busy,
and some bowling scores are run off
which are all to the good The alleys
are the most popular place in camp
and have been for several months.
