THEY ARE UNPRECEDENTED.
Entry Lists for Races at the Coming
State Fair.
Some of the More Important Events
Not to Close Till the 27th-
other Features.

The entry list for the State Fair race
meeting of the current year is unpre-
cedented in the history of the society.
The entries closed August 21st, since
which time Secretary Smith has been
actively engaged in classifying and ar
ranging them. The faster classes in trot-
ting and pacing events do not close until
August 9th.
In the 2:20 class pacing race there are
eleven entries; in the 2:E trotting race,
sixteen entries; in the 2:30 class, twenty,
and in the 2:40 class, fifteen, with Mon
tana, Oregon and Salt Lake yet to be
heard from.
The entries in running races are very
large, from ten, the lowest, to thirty
eight, the highest, with Denver and New
York entries to come.
l.. j. Rose b as telegraphed from New
York that his entries are en- route, and
the California contingent in Montana and
Denver will soon be heard from.
The Board OF Directcr rs will find it no
easy matter to arrange the racing so that
all may have chance that are entered.
They may have to separate the classes,
thus making two races of each class when
there are more than twelve starters.
remarkable increase of interest in this
years exhibition. The Southern Pacific
Company has about arranged to make a
most creditable showing in the historical
department. The ancient machinery of
the company, including the old &C. p.
Huntington" one of the first engines
used by the company, as well as the first
passenger coach; the latest Pullman; the
first freight car; the latest refrigerator

Of about l0Xl2 inches, and the last one,
covering q sheet 24X4S inches; the shovel
that broke the first ground, and the last
Old-style railroadrules and paraphernalia
and the latest and most improved.
The company viii put in 4 switch at
Fifteenth and r streets, and lay a tenn
porary track along Fifteenth street on top
OF ground, and run the cars around to the
west end of the building, where a tempo
rary. addition will be built to house them.
This will open out from the main hall of
the building, thus continuing the histori-
cal exhibit and thereby covering q space
of 100 feet wide by $40 feet in length.
The directors have in contemplation and
preparation other new and novel features.
which from time TO time viii be made
public. With such an exhibition as that
of 1892 promises to be, the people Of Sac
Tamento should be making preparations
TO take care of the great influx oil visitors
that il is certain to bring. This is an i'm
portant matter, and should receive prompt
and concerted action.

LEVEE LEVELS.
The Front Levee From Y to Seventh
Streets.
An Object Lesson-Promising Outlook
for Levee Improvement
This Season.

We present this morning half-size re-
production of the plat made from the
survey of the front leyee by City Engi-
neer Boyd. To understand exactly what
is shown by this profile, it is necessary
to explain that the dotted line is the
high water mark of 1892; that the hori-
zontal lines represent hight from one to
the other of one foot; that the running
length is TO be measured by the scale
marked on the plat, which measures be-
tween each vertical line 100 feet. The
wave line is the front leyee top from Y to
Seventh street. The irregularities repre-
sent the different nights of the Ievee and
the grade from one to the other Thus.
between S and r streets the levee is 3
feet 10 inches above high water mark.
and the plat shows a sudden descent to
R street, but it is decline of one foot in
100 feet.

Atchison was arraigned in the Police
Court yesterday on charge of vagrancy.

were called to testify.

case. and when they took the stand sew
eral speeches were made that threatened
to raise the roof In fact, City Attorney
Hart had to check several outbursts of
eIoquence and ask the orators to conine

DIR. GEORGES LECTURE.

He Describes the Habits and Costumes
of the People.
Rev. DR.. George, native Of Armenia,
delivered a very interesting lecture last
night, at the Calvary Baptist church,
on armenia and the Garden of Eden"
to ahsirly good and very appreciative
audience. He began the lecture by
singing abide with Me" in his native
language. DR.. George then described
the country and scenery of Armenia.
A vivid description was given Of the
inhabitants, their customs, religions,
etc.
In conclusion he said he had come to
this country to educate himself and had
no money. He went to New Jersey and
made an application to enter school and
offered to work his way through. This
proposition was accepted and he worked
for several years until he graduated and
received his diploma. Since then he
has been preaching and lecturing and
has now put in an application before
the Southern Board to go as a medical
missionary to Armenia to convers the
poor, illiterate, ignorant and degraded
people to the true religion of God.
Mr.. George then arrayed himself in
the Armenian costume, which consisted
of dark blue flannel robe reaching to
his knees. broad sash OF light material
wrapped around his waist and scarf of
still lighter material around his neck.
