Horses that Have Arrived for the State
Fair

Horses that Have arrived for the State
Fair.
Agricultural Park is cow ready for the
opening of the State Fair next Monday.
Every part of the grounds on close inspection
shows the careful work of the cleaner and re-
pairer. All the brick and woodwork of the
stalls. fences and sheds have been whitened,
and where before dilapidated thoroughly re-
paired. The new reporters stand has been
completed and is ready for occupancy. 1t is
intended for and will be reserved to represen-
tatives of the daily papers of California exclu-
siyelv. and is barely large enough for that
purpose. The new blackboard has been put
! in place, not between standards, rs original
! ly intended, but across the face of
the timers stand, an arrangement that
| is quite as good. It should, the
! great length of the spectators stands being
considered, be much larger, but this could
not well be and have it located where it Low
is. The original intention was to have the
letters one foot long, but if they are printed
out carefully, they can be seen at great
distance, even at the lesser size. 1t would
have been better had the nine strips of
molding been omitted, and painted white
lines used instead, TO separate the names of
horses, as the person who letters out the
| names could then have written close down
to the line, which is now impossible-in
fact, this utilization of space would have
been invaluable. The following horses are at
the park, and more are coming i'll daily:

SECULAR TAsTE-A singular exhibition
Of peculiar taste has just been made at Agri-
cultural Park. The outer walls and the
buildings have been whitew&shed, but the
artists with the bread brush have extended
their labors to the trees along Twentieth
street, next to the Park, and every one Of the
handsome shade trees there is now an offense
to good taste. Each tree trunk has been col.
ored to q hight of about eight feet in three
broad bands, red, white aud blue, the white
baad forming the ground work for a fearfully
regular zprinkling of blue stars. If this was
an attempt to symbolic the "Stars and
Stripes" il is a 81 sna failure, as the orramer-
tation Heaven save the mark , Is far more
suggestive of the stars and bars" The first
impression made is that the entire tonsorial
fraternity has taken quarters in the Park, and
that these melancholy trees are the usual
signs of barber shops as certainly as that itisa
barbarous dissertation OF natural growth. The
