trotting wheel to wheel most of the way,
but the former broke badly at the cross
ing, and Leon came in alone; tune
2:29s4.
Pools sold: Leon, 500; Victor, $40;
Jim, 81.
Second heat-The horses scored three
times before receiving the word, but
they went off to good start. Jim went
to the front at the turn, and as both
Leon and Victor broke again, he drew
away, and had gained an advantage of
six lengths at the quarter mark.
He maintained this lead to the
upper turn, where he was slowed
up and Leon closed the gap
between them considerably. The lat
ter, however, was not speedy enough to
overtake Jim on the stretch, and the
Chino horse won easily by four open
lengths. Victor narrowly escaped being
shut out; time 2:30I.
Pools sold:. Leon. 500; the field, $15.
Third heat-After scoring six times,
the trio received the word to an even
start, and Jim at once took the foremost
place. Victor and Leon broke again at
the turn and the former dropped back
twenty lengths. Leon soon got down
again, and gradually overhauling Jim
on the backstretch, passed him and
led by an open length at the half
mile. He increased this to two lengths
at the head of the stretch, but Jim stole
a march upon him and came with a
rush at the finish, and, amid great ex
citement, both passed under the wire
wheel to wheel. The judges awarded
the heat to Leon by head time
2:33L.
The fourth heat, which was trotted
out in the darkness, was won by Jim in
1921. Details cannot be given as it
was too dark to see across the track
from the stand. Leon and Victor
finished in the order named.

There was large attendace at the
Horticultural Fair last night, and many
people who have never seen the fine ex-
hibits Of fruits which delight the eye Of
the visitor, expressed astonishment at
the products of the wonderful soil and
climate of Southern California, which
make it possible for such enormous
fruits and vegetables to be possible
things. Watermefons weighing over 100
OF grapes, apples and in fact all kinds of
tracted the admiration of all beholders.
A stem of tobacco at least seven feet
long, corn stalks too high to mention
were to be seen. The bottled products
of the vineyard in attractive "origin al
packages" are not wanting either.
In the art gallery splendid specimens Of
the taxidermist's art, of the photographer
and the embroiderer, were to be seen.
No exhibition of the horticultural di-
vision of the association has ever been OF
as grand character as that of the pres
ent year.
Among the finest exhibits at the
horticultural fair are those of Henry
Bohrmann, the celebrated mantel-
tention. The wood carving in the art
masterpiece in that line of business. On
parlor basket is the cynosure of all eyes.
Henry Bohrmann's reputation as a
manufacturer of mantels is almost
national. He makes them in wood, iron
and slate. Fine cabinet ware is made
to order in his establishment. Bank,
Office and store fixtures are some of Bohr-
mann's specialties. He fitted up the
German-American Savings bank, and
any one who has seeu the Offices OF that
institution may be able to judge of the
high degree of his workmanship. This
is the fifth time that he takes the first
prize for the art works in his line of
business. Art tiles for mantel decor
ations, CRATES, brass goods, gas logs and
all kinds of open fireplaces are either
kept in stock by him or made to order.
His warerooms are at 514 South Spring
street.
One of the special features of the fair
was the exhibit of the Los Angeles
Lighting company. They had on the
platform number of stoves adapted to
cooking food by means of gas. To give
practical demonstration of the fact that
good dinner can be prepared on gas
stove. every night during fair week an
excellent cook has prepared waffies,
fritters, oysters, roast beef and chicken,
and these eatables were distributed
among the visitors. Last night, how
ever, the company did themselves
proud by offering gorgeous dinner to
the Los Angeles press. Fish, turkey
and variety of other good things were
cooked on the large gas range, and made
a delectable supper for the hungry re-
porters.
