Events.

Ihe POULTRY, Pet STOCK and Dog Show
came to an end last evening. The pro-
jectors of this undertaking have scored
one of the most remarkable successes
ever accomplished in this city by any
undertaking of this character. The two
organizations under whose auspices the
show was given-the Poultry Association
and the Kennel Club-have been in
existence only short time, and this is
the first show of the sort that has ever
been given in Southern California.
Under these circumstances, it might be
regarded as a mere experiment, in which
a respectable failure would be creditable.
On the contrary, from first to last in
every respect, the show has been signal
success.
The projectors themselves, when they
came to work up the ground, were sur
prised to find that they could secure go
many and such excellent entries. The
good attendance with which the show
opened has continued throughout the
week. Last night the aisles between the
kennels and among the coops were so
crowded that often it was difficult to get
ear enough to see the animals or fowls
on exhibition. The gate money will not
only pay all the expenses connected with
the affair. but enough remains over to
give the Poultry Association, the organ
ization which assumed the financial
responsibility of the affair, neat little
cum with which to begin business on for
next time.
A large number of people who have
visited this show, and who have seen
those given in the northern part of the
State, say that it was hardly equalled by
any ever given in San Francisco. The
proof of that is found in the fact that the
San Francisco shows have invariably
been money losing affairs.
The entertainment held up well to the
end. No one was allowed to take away
any of the stock exhibited without a
considerable forfeit. and as result all
the kennels were filed last night. The
dogs were getting little tired, and some
of them did good deal of barking. The
show has not been marred by accidents
or disagreeable incidents of any kind
and ali those who have exhibited will
stand very ready to engage in the same
enterprise year from now.

which have been already given in the
