GROWING lii INTEREST.
THE STATE FAIR ATTRACTING MANY
PEOPLE TO THE CITY.
Exciting Events at the Park-The Great
Stock show-Attractions for the
Coming Week.

There were large attendances of people
| yesterday at the Park and Pavilion. The
latter was quite crowded in the evening,
and the visitors seemed to be greatly
pleased with all they saw. An unusually
fine musical programme was rendered by
the First Artillery Band, led by c. A.
Neale, and the audience gave expression to
their appreciation Of It's merit by frequent
applause.
No one can get correct idea of the real
value of the various displays made by one
visit to the Pavilion. Something new con-
fronts him at every turn, and the visitor
who wishes to study the nature and variety
of the products of the State, as there rep.
resented, must go again and again.
Very attractive indeed are the school ex-
kibits at the fair. The Sacramento Gram
mar School, Miss Watson, principal, makes
very handsome display of map work
writing lesson work, pen drawing and SIM
liar exhibits. They are all neatly mounted
and so arranged as TO be easily examined
The Sacramento Free kindergarten has
pretty display in glass cases of the work
of the infant pupils. This consists of
pleatlng, paper weaving, design cutting,
block work and games, and host OF similar
novel things done in play by The kinder
gardeners, bat the doing of which taught
them, in sense. the laws of form, prol or
ton, color, etc, and made their fingers do
the bidding of their will in an orderly and
artistic manner.

very large display. 1t is hung upon
series of rods, supported upon brackets,
and in part is shown upon shelf and upon
the wall. The space Is decorated in blue
and old gold. The work of the pupils in
forty-six schools is here shown, each gronp
by Itself, the grades being indicated by
printed cards, giving the average age of the
pupils. The work is very neat. The les
son examples are especially worthy of ex-
animation for their neatness, the excellence
of the handwriting and the character of the
work generally. 1t is the largest school
exhibit ever made at the State Fair and
ought to engage the attention of all par.
ents.
