There was hardly a niche or . corner from the
front hall to the dressing rooms that was not
occupied by a prOfusion Of the choicest varie-
ties of potted plants and flowers. The parlors
were almost one continuous wreath OF ever
green, flowers and other decorations, the whole
effect rendered brilliant by different-colored
gas Jets and wax tapers almost hidden in what
seemed to be surrounding summer foliage.
The dining room was ablaze with vari-colored
lights from wall bracket lamps and wax tapers
and on the beautifully spread table were two
large candelabras, whose branching arms were
filled full Of brightly burning candles, which
threw soft rays in every direction. The pres
ents were numerous. One which probably Mr.
Thompson will prize very highly, an elegant
gold-headed cane, was presented Dy members
Of the Oldest Inhabitants' association Of the

the reception and refreshments came dancing,
which was enjoyed until . late hour by the

A WONDERFUL REMEDY.
Radam's Mtcr0be KtiIer,', al
Snnaa II nm N Y n N HE lImres.

Radam's " Mtcr0be Ktiler,,, and
some Remarkable Cures.
Among other things that attract atten-
tion at the fair is the booth where VIM.
Radam's " Microbe Killer" is being
given away to those who desire to test
its merits. A short time ago the San
Francisco Eraminer published an ac-
count of the wonderful curative powers
of the medicine, and through the energy
of the enterprising gentlemen who have
the agency for handling it here, it is be-
coming we'll known in Los Angeles. One
of the features OF the "Microbe Killer" is
the fact that those who have
tried it never hesitate to recon-
mend it to their friends. Among
the cures effected in Los Angeles is that
of Albert Ellis, who about five years ago
was affected by lead poisoning, while
engaged at the mines. His gatherings
until recently we're very great and he
tried almost every known remedy, visit
ing mineral springs and consult
ing physicians, but he could
get no relief. Finally his
system became BID disordered that he
suffered from dropsy and catarrh and his
lungs were affected. Two months ago
he commenced the use of the "microbe
killer" and before he had used one Jug
full all his sores healed and he now is
nearly as we'll as he ever was. 1t will
also cure the grippe, for Miss Hughes
tried it when suffering from that malady
and was surprised at her rapid recovery.
1t is also good for dandruff, in fact it
reaches the foundation Of asgood many
diseases. The agents here are Messrs.
W. G. Hughes and A. d. Drummond,
both we'll known in Los Angeles. Mr..
Hughes has been here five years and
was for some time a prominent real
estate broker. Mr.. Drummond is an
Episcopal clergyman. Both are ener-
getic and enterprising, and a visit to
their Office at 113 West First street will
convince every one of the wonderful
power of the medicine they are dis
tributing.

manner of packing the fruit fer Eastern
shipment. The arch is about 20 feel
high and 20 feet wide, and is beautifully
decorated with orange clusters and
leaves, nothing having been used in the
construction or trimming except oranges,
orange leaves and orange boxes.
The work reflects great credit upon the
originators and builders, the work hav.
ing been superintsnded by w. A. Perry,
manager for the Earl Fruit Company.
The fruit used in packing the boxes is
among the choicest and best selections
The Earl Fruit Company are the
largest shippers of California fruits slnd
operate in all fruit districts of California
Their shipments for the year 1889 aggre-
gated over 1900 carloads, of which about
700 carloads we're oranges and other
Southern California products, and the re.
msinder summer fruits. They have
packing houses in all the principal
orange districts of Southern California,
including Los Angeles, Riverside, Pasa-
dena, San Gabriel, Dnarte, Azusa, Ana
helm, Santa Ana, Tustin, etc. 1t is
through the efforts and work of such
firms as the Earl Fruit Company that
the orange industry OF Southern Califor-
mia has attained its present prosperous
condition. With their packing facilities
in the several districts, and their branch
house at Chicago, they are in position to
pack and market California fruits to the
very best advantage. Their principal
office in Southern California is at No.

REDONDO BEACH.
The Finest Seaside Resort i'm the
World.


To say any place is the finest on the
American continent is saying q great
deal. For all that it is not hyperbole to
say Redondo is the finest seaside resort
in the country. Taking all it's excellence
into account there is nothing like it in
America. 1t is winter resort as we'll as
a summer resort. Bathers enj ~ the
surf there in January as much as is true
of most places in August. The differ
ence between the temperature of the
water is very little all the year round.
Then it is safe bathing beach with q
bottom of soft, clean sand, free from
undertow, stingrays or any other draw
back. The bay is sheltered by two
points, reaching far out to sea, Point
Duma of North Santa Monica, and Point
Vincent jast south of Redondo,
by which all rough winds are
broken and the heaviest seas re-
duced to gentle swell. The scenery is
exceedingly attractive, presenting ma
rine and mountain views unsurpassed
and unsurpassab'e.
The hotel is nearly finished at this
date, and its doors will be thrown open
ON April 18th to the general public.
There is no more complete, convenient
nor comfortable hostelry anywhere than
this. The HERALD has taken pleasure
more than once in describing the attrac-
tive features in detail. The rooms are
all sunny, all we'll aired, all commanding
exquisite views of ocean or mountain.
Broad halls1 less verandahs, quiet
nooks to sit u. I'D read or talk, are also
features of the hotel. 1t has beautiful
general dining-room, and Thousand
other attractions. The place is lighted
with electricity, made on the premises,
and there are lights all over the ground.
Redondo is the coming health and
pleasure resort of the Coast.

Today will be San Diego's opportunity,

will give performance, and Otto Vogel,
late of Savannah, Georgia, has volun-

LAST NIGHT.

Very Large Attepdamce-The Re
ceipts-Evening Performance.
The attendance yesterday through the
day was large and in the evening the
main floor and galleries were crowded to
the same degree as on the opening night.
The receipts at the door yesterday in
Guiding the evening were 900. The
financial success of the fair is no longer
in question. 1t will probably secure q
very comfortable profit as a nest egg for
next year.
Yesterday YVES Santa Barbara and
Orange day, and an admission of 10
cents only was charged for school chill
dren. In the evening an excellent mu-
sical programme was given by the Arend
orchestra. The performance on the
stage consisted in exercises by the mem
bers of the Los Angeles Athletic Club.
There were acts on the horizontal and
parallel bars, in boxing, high jumping
and the forming of pyramids. The per-
formance was managed by Prof. Bes-
sing.
Los Angeles daily herald., 1890-03-13

the appropriation from the Legislature
went to pay premiums alone. This fund
WAS speedily obtained, it being evidently
the sentiment of Los Angeles business
men that the fair should receive their
hearty support.
Several of the plans adopted by the
committee and the superintendent de-
serve to be noticed IS having contrib
uted in special degree to the success of
tha fair. In the first place, the COM
mittee selected manager in
whom they could have absolute conf
dance, allowed him the largest latitude
in the conducting of all business con-
nected with the fair. After he was &C.
lected they held only two meet
ings, one to arrange the list
of premiums and the other to
select judges. 1t takes one head to
manage fsir, although the heads Of q
great many people may be used as assist
ants to the manager. another point in
the plans of the committee which was
found to operate adven5ageously was the
setting aside of $500 for one premium to
go to the best county exhibit. This had
the effect of arousing general rivalry
among the counties in this district with
result which shows in the superb
county exhibits. Anot er wise pro.
vision was that all exhibits must be in
by the afternoon before the fair opened
to be ready for the inspection of the
judges at that time. But perhaps the
shrewdest of sll the special plans carried
out by the committee was the one which
provided for individual days for each of
the counties concerned in the exhibit.
This has operated to increase the attend
ance and arouse interest and rivalry.
Los Angeles daily herald., 1890-03-13
THE DISPLAY IN GENERAL.
An Idea of yalue-Ehe Arrang ement
of Exhibits.

An idea of the usntity OF fruit that is
now displayed in Hazards pavilion at
the citrus fair may be obtained from the
fact that San Bsrnardino county alone
sent two carloads. The value of a car
load of fine fruit is from 5000 to 81 ,200, 80
the San Bernardino contribution reaches
value of about 50 200. There are prob.
ably about eight thousand dollars worth
of citrus fruits now displayed at the
Pavilion, representing orchards where
one hundred times the amount is sold
and packed annually.
The best place to see the fair as a
whole, and to take in the fine effects Of
color, is from the gallery. Il is evident
that this fact is we'll understood by the
public, as the gallery is we'll filled by
day and crowded at night. Standing in
the eastern gallery and looking west
ward one sees the huge banks of soft
color of the displays of Riverside, Red
lands and San Diego. They are for the
most part unrelieved by green, and give
strong, solid effect. On the opposite
| side of the gallery the exhibits on
the eastern side of the house may be
seen. They include Orange and Los
Angeles counties and the special exhibit
Of Pomona, which, although under the
banner of Los Angeles county, is nearly
large enough for fair itself. 1t hap.
pens that these exhibits on this side OF
the house have nearly all of them been
| arranged with flowers and greenery.
Many of them are arranged with superior
| artistic taste.
The decorations of the building, al
though not very extensive, are well
arranged, and contribute the right ele.
ment to the general effect An impor-.
tant feature of these are the numbers OF
incandescent lights, which are hidden in
| the branches of trees, or are suspended
from the gallery in the Japanese Ian
terms. At night the scene is one of the
most brilliant which the walls of the
Pavilion, where 80 many fairs and flower
festivals have taken place, ever shut in:
The white arc lights, the rich colors OF
the banks of fruit, the moving streams
of people among the tables, mingling
with the steady hum of conversation
from thousands of lips, all combine to
make the citrus fair happy memory to
the visitors.
