Unless they pay their fare railroad employes cannot go to the St. Louis fair after Aug. 15, the presidents of the St. Louis lines having entered into an agreement to that effect. At the same time all roads entering St. Louis have notified employes that they cannot get passes after August 15 and if they want to go to the fair must arrange to take their vacation prior to that date. An official of one of the companies said: "We expect to carry free, up to August 15, many railroad employes of our own and other lines, but we do not want to turn away persons anxious to pay their fare after August 15, in order to carry deadheads. Of course, holders of annual passes can use them at anv time." Por the Crosby People Selected. Mr. Earl Kamp and Mr. Walter Steinkamp, two of Richmond's most progressive young men, have been selected to represent the Crosby people who manufacture Petro-Pine White Tar Soap, etc. The j'oung men are both hustlers and will no doubt boom the business for the new concern.

The entertainment committee for the State Sunday School Convention which meets in this city June 21-23, held its meeting last evening in the South Eighth Street Friends' church. Over one hundred members of this committee were present, as the assignments for securing accommodations for the visitors were thandec out.

Friday the members will make the thorough canvass of the city, going to homes, for quarters for the Sunday School Avorkers who will attend the state convention. The number of members of the entertainment committee being so large, the sections are small and can easily be covered by one person in a day at the most. Next Tuesday evening the committee will meet to receive returns, and it is hoped and expected that the Richmond people will be generous in throwing open their homes and that comfortable accommodations for all visitors will be secured.
