THE STATE FAIR.
A SUCCESSFUL WREK-IT In.
CREASES IN INTEREST DAILY.
A Gorgeous Pavilion and an I'm

did Racing Contests.

The first week of the State Fair closed
with the Pavilion on Saturday night. Sc
far this has bean the greatest fair that ha:
ever been held in the Sta'e and is a marked
evidence of the present prosperity of Cali.
fornia. The receipts Saturday were 81.
30 % which are $3.50 50 in excess of the
corresponding day last year. This, too, in
the face of the strong opposition of the
circus that paraded in the forenoon, and
gave exhibitions in the afternoon and even
ing. AT the races Saturday afternoon
the stands were well filed, in fact
the grand stand was crowded. II
was the largest attendance ever seen
on the track during the first week,
and those who attended were fully repaid,
for they witnessed the greatest race ever
trotted in America. 1t is estimated that
fully 100000 changed hands on the result
of the great stallion race, and as the win
ners were the small buyers, many went
away with more money than they had been
possessed of in years. One gentleman who
occupied a seat in the reporters stand won
$4,000. 1t is needless to say he was not a
reporter, for the latter gentry never bet, for
various and sundry reasons.

Street Car Accommodations.

The people living in the southeastern
portion of the city are complaining bitterly
because no cars are run on the line from
Twentieth and o street to Agricultural
Park, as in former years, during the State
Fair. The people living in hat portion OF
the city say they are the very best patrons
of the street-car line, and feel they are being
abused. If it is not practicable to run the
O-street cars to the Park, as in former years,
one double car running backwards and for
wards on Twentieth street would be a great
accommodation, and would be appreciated
as an evidence that the management was
trying to accommodate all of its patrons.
AS it is now. people come down On the O.
street cars, hoping to be transferred to an
H-street car, but when the car Is met on K
street it is already crowded, and they must
either wait q long time and pay a second
fare, take a carriage, walk out to the Park
or, as many did on Saturday, go back home

T'HB BlSsBS'' BRIGHTEST best.

The most successful and growing stores in the
country to-day are the large, complete and many-sided
stores, with goods suited to all needs. tastes and purses.
Looked at from a single standpoint. they may seem too
voluminous and complex. Looked at from the stand
point OF the multiform demands of the day, nothing less
will suffice. There is no test like experience and practi-
cal results, and these support the complete stores.
Ours is the largest and most complete general out
fitting establishment on the coast, as it is also the most
successful. 1t has the largest trade, both at home and
through the mails, and shows the most rapid growth, and
its growth has been the most rapid Just as it's assortments
were at their best and highest.
The key to its success is that it furnishes what the
People-and all the people-want. 1t ministers to every
demand. 1t is varied and all embracing. All its custom
ers may not buy in every department perhaps, but every
one finds what he looks for and is interested in. There
are coarse, stout goods for rough usage; plain, service
able goods for everyday wear, and fashionable and costly
goods from Vienna, Paris, London and other market cen
tiers OF the world. In each of these grades only the best
makes are represented, while the prices are always as low.
and in most cases lower, than those. of the other dealers.
These facts are cited for the benefit of strangers in
the city, whom we invite to visit our store: We believe
that we have stated nothing that is rot accepted by those
who know us. Men believe what they see, and every
body sees the truth for himself.

THE STOCK PARADE.
Splendid Display of Fine Horses and
Cattle at the Park.

Splendid Display of Fine Horses and
Cattle at the Park.
The first grand stock parade took place
at the Park at 10 o'clock Saturday morning,
and the exhibition was superior to that of
any former year. The procession of
horses alone was over a mile in length and
the line of blooded cattle was almost as
long. 1t was q sight well worth Witnessing,
and there were many comments upon the
fact that the grand stand was not one
quarter filled with people, while at the
races on the day previous, and later in the
same day, it was crowded to its utmost
capacity. This was accounted for by some
by the fact that the great street parade of
the circus was taking place at the same
hour. There will be another parade at 8
A. NJ. tomorrow, at which true the attend
ance will no doubt be much larger.
The parade was led by Colonel James
McNasser with his handsome carriage team
of sorrels. Following came a large num-
Der of handsome carriage teams, that of j.
w. Wilson being especially noticeable.
Then came a long line of ,roadsters and
standard. bred ~trotters, among them some of
the finest in the State. The thoroughbreds
were next in line, and they made a mag
ficent collection. They were headed by T.
G. Jones' handsome three-year-old Three
Cheers, who took the first premium in his
class at the late Oakland show, followed by
]. B. Haggin's fine imported stallion Mid
lothian. Next came l.. U. Shippee's fine
stable of fourteen colts lately imported
from the East. Among them were two
King Ban colts of great promise, and the

J. K. Newton's Australian importations

year, but they were an exceedingly fine
lot. Seth Cooks Baron Hilton, Saxon

handsome specimens of a very shapely
breed of horses. The two mentioned look

Several so-called French coach horses fol-

Tomorrow at 10 A. NJ. Killip & Co. will
sell at auction, at the stables of WILDER F.

of imported registered Hereford cattle, the
property of H. Vaughn. Among them are
20 two-year-old bulls, IL three vear-olds. Al
two-year-olds and 81 yt airing heifers. Those
who have seen this immense herd of fine
blooded cattle say it is the finest that has
ever crossed the continent, and farmers
and stock raisers will have an excellent OPP
p%ortunity of improving their stock. They
were raised in Wyoming, from cattle i'm
ported from England, and are of the best
blood that could be purchased in that
country. They are of the Lord Wilton and
Horace blood. Grove, the grandsire Of
this herd, was purchased in England four
years ago. He cost $4,000, and has, since
sold for $12, 900 to an Indiana firm. The
herd is by Lord Wilton, who sold fol

The Gutenberger Trap.

"A fox, given to vain strutting in unus-
ual paths, stumbled one evening; into q
trap and was held fast. Thereupon all the
other animals laughed heartily that he
should not have seen the snare. But /
did, cried Reynard, L set it myself and put
my foot into it, that l might be able to
laugh at your mirth.'"
1t was an old notion that the ostrich
buried its head III the sand when hotly
pursued. vainly thinking itself safe from
the hunter when it did not see him.

SPECIAL
An E~nterprising House.


Sacramento is noted all over the Pacific
Coast for her enterprise and hospitality.
No great move of any character for the ben
eft of this section of the Union has ever
been made, but what Sacramento mer-
chants have had a hand in it. The dis
tipguished position Sacramento holds to-
day as a trade center is due to the push and
energy of her merchants. No one in SAG
ramento has done more to advance the in
terests of the city, as a trading point, than
has G. H. Gilman, proprietor of the Red
House. To this particular establishment
the readers attention Is directed, especially
of hat class who are now visiting the city
and who have been patrons of the house
| for years through The houses extensive
| country order department. To those and
the public generally, Mr.. Gilman extends
| an invitation to visit the Red House, To-
Gated on ] street, between Seventh and
| Eighth, whether they wish 10 make pur-
| chases or not. No pains will be spared
to make you welcome and show
| you through the different depart
ments of this immense establish
ment. The visitor, upon passing through
| the different departments, will find as
varied and choice a selection of goods for
| ladies', gents and.children's wear as can be
| found anywhere. The dress goods depart.
| ment is replete with all the latest styles
| known to the trade. The same can be
| claimed for the millinery parlors, where any
| kind or style of hat or bonnet. from the
| cheaper grades up to the finest French i'm
ported, can be had. The departments of
the house devoted to clothing, gents fur
| nishing goods, fancy goods for ladies. boots
| and shoes, etc, are all filled with new and
desirable goods, at prices which defy COM
petition. Let no one leave the city without
| calling at the Red House. Your visit will
be amply repaid.
The Boss Wire-Strctcher.
Every farmer or other person who has a
| fence, or has need of one, should not
leave the Pavilion without stepping into
Machinery Hall and examining the Walker
| Patent Australian Fence Wire Stretcher
and Permanent Fastener. California Wire
| Works Company, of San Francisco, general
| agents Pacific coast. This is the first time
| this little device has been seen hare, and,
although the simplest thing that could be
imagined, is the cheapest and best OF any,
thing that possibly could be devised. As is
usual in such cases the wonder is Why in
the world it was not thought of years ago.
The outfit complete only costs fifteen cents
| for the stretching of forty rods of wire,
and the price, coupled with the effective
ness with which it does its weak, is going
to make it a necessity to every fence owner
in the land.
The stretcher consists of a solid iron
spool, four inches long, the Ese.hod of ap-
plication being comprehendsd by q single

TIE POLICE ROUGHs AGAIN

That intrepid spirit. VIM. O'Brien,
has again fallen into the clutches of
the Philistines. It is not the Orange
men OF Canada this time who are the
offenders, but their friends and allies.
the Irish policemen. The other day
MIR. O'Brien attempted to address a
meeting at Youghal composed prin-
cipally of the tenants on the Ponsonby
estate. The meeting was proclaimed
by the Cover nmeDt, and when Mr..
O'Brien mounted the car with the in
tention OF addressing his people he was
seized by policemen aud dragged to the
ground. They then charged upon the
crowd with dra > n batons.
This is the way in which the people
of Ireland are permitted to exercise the
much boosted right of free speech.
The policemen, no matter how ignorant
they may be, are authorized to mob any
one who does not agree with them in
matters pertaining to politics. Would it
not be well for the British Government
to establish schools in which the Irish
police would be taught to write so that
they could get up speeches for men of
Intelligence to read to the people.

a CATHOLIC CLUB,

The Catholic Club is tbs name of a.
wealthy and powerful New York Or
ganization that bids fair to WELD a
mighty influence in the social, religious
and political affairs of Gotham. 1t is
composed Of such men as Morgan j..
O'Brien, Judge OF the Supreme Court,
Eugene Kelly, the millionaire banker
and Irish patriot. William A. Field
and Joseph J. Donabue. 1t numbers
among it's membership many other
equally patriotic and prominent Catho-
lie gentlemen, whose prestige will be
of incalculable worth. 1t has pur-
chased at cost of $4,000, a site for a
new building of it's own, and will at once
begin the erection of a magnificent
structure, costing $130,0o0. The or
ganization is composed exclusively of
Catholics. We hope the Catholic Club
will continue to succeed and prosper as
we'll in the future as it has in the past,
and that other cities will form like CT
CARNATIONS, until a chain Of love and
friendship will unite the Catholic men
of America in an indissoluble bond.
