ADVERTISE THE FAIR.

a.he success of the Arkansas State Far depends greatly upon the. adyer- tising publicity given this state insti- tuition, and the campaign of publicity mapped out for this year is greater than ever before. covering vastly larger scope and with a complete fol- low up system during the late sum mer and fall.
 Next week one hundred newspapers in Arkansas will carry an entire page Vi special reading matter for the tair setting forth all the special at factions, the agricultural, live stock, horticultural and industrial depart ments with their new and enlarged ments with aher new and enlarged features. This page will be read by thousands of people in Arkansas and will put the state fair squarely before the people of the state.
 In addition to this page special ar ticles are being furnishca tho trade and live stock journals. the agricul- fural. poultry. swine and cattle pubIi- cations, as well as the general amnse- ment publicity journals, all of whicn fe hrinpine 4-ea,tlfx
 This campaign of advertising vii De kept ua until the date of the fan with increased vigor, and 1t is reasona. ble to presume that by November II the opening day of the fair, the 19l. State fair will have been the most extensively advertised exhibit sine the inception of the organization seven years ago.
 Most of this early advertising is oi the publicity character, exploiting the fair and it's attractions in the news columns of newspapers and trade publications. Later on the big posters and Illustrated advertising will be placed in an effort to make the com ing fair the biggest and best, both from the standpoint of exhibits and attendance, the greatest fair ever held in the southwest.

made the victims Of a clever fortune
teller Friday evening. 1t seems that
the leading figure in the case, Ielah

which haunted them shortly after

moments by rap on the door.
Brown attempted to open the door
but found that II was locked securely
Finally a key was found. and Fred
Schweikert. whom the other woman In
the case claims to be her husband, and
a companion were admitted. A heated
protest was made by the two men and
an explanation relative TO their visit
was Immediately demanded Of Brown
ard Foster Their explanation did not
suffice and a settlement was demand
ed but Brown and Foster were able
t. appearsc the wrath OF Schweikert
and his partner by promising them a
settlement Saturday.
This morning Brown and Foster
made complaint and the two women
were arrested and brought to the may
