SANTA ANA, Oct. 16.-About 40 OF the
delegates to the irrigation congress ar
rived in Santa Ana on the p. m. train
today and we're met by citizens at the
Santa Fe depot and driven down to
Spurgeon's hall, where they were shown
through the exhibit OF the Orange
County fair, which had been left at the
hall for that purpose. The delegates
appeared to take great interest in every
thing they saw, and the large corn,
equaahes and vegetables from Garden
Grove ana the peat land ELECTED many
exclamatipnH of surprise from the
visitors. After considerable time had
been spent at the hall the carriages
were again taken and were driven over
the town and then to Tustin and
Orange.
At o'clock the carriages brought up
in front of the Lacy block, where a
spread had been prepared for the dele
gates. After lunch they were driven to
the Santa Fe depot, where they took
the train for San Diego at 5 AS.
The irrigation system of the Santa
Ana was studied as closely as their
short stay would permit, and called
forth many compliments from those
acquainted with that line of business.
