There are two main points of inter-
est at the fair where visitors never
seem to tire. One is the Midway
plaisance, the other is Columbia av-
enue in the manufactures building.
On the Midway you see the nations
of the earth in all their gaudy apparel.
On Columbia avenue you see the
best products of those nations; gild-
ed procession of the most costly and
gorgeous wares, fabrics and trinkets
of Paris, Rome, Florence, London,
Berlin, Vienna, New York, Constan-
stantinople, Madras and Toxic. A
man walked the length of the street
the other day. 1t was a good day
for aimless promenading The wood
EN- pavement was damp and cool un-
derfoot. Refreshing breaths of lake
wind caught him at each corner. He
saw, first, high tiers of graceful statu-
ary ranged under velvet canopies and
guarded by swarthy italian marines.
He saw men from Switzerland leading
visitors through recess fairyland of
carvings and jewels. He saw men
from Norway and Denmark standing
at the street doorways of their pavil-
ions. Russians in solemn black coats,
buttoned up to their heavy boards,
lounged among the kiosks. lie saw
Belgium's heavy arches and Frances
magnificent doorways. Through
them he caught glimses Of silks, bron-
zes, porcelains, golden ware. lie
leaned on plush ropes and looked in
to the most luxurious apartments
known to England. lie saw Ger
many's minarets, the riotous show
of rich colors and foliate decoration,
the dripping fountains and the tam
gled grillwork. The daintiest and
most costly products of American
mills were fluffed and festooned in
booths, some of which seemed carved
from ebony and silver. The peaked
roof and sheltering caves of Japan's
airy castle invited him to ramble
among the fire-Hies and dragons. He
saw many more things through the
glass walls or wide doorways of the
miniature palaces, yet the best thing
he saw was the street itself.

POLICE COMMISSIONERS.

Oficer Bosqui Given a HesrIng-A Dog
catcher Appointed.
The board of police commissioners
met yesterday in the city hall at 8
O'Clock, all members of the board being
present.
Ex.Oficer W. A. Bosqui made an sp.
real for a hearing on the charges
brought against him. Fortune favored
his efforts, and on motion of Mr.. Tufts
the hearing was set for next Thursday
morning at o'clock.
A communication from W. F. Griggs
was received, urging the necessity OF es-
tablishing police telegraph and tele-
phone system, which would place Los
Angeles on an equal footing with east
ern cities of like size and Importance in
the matter of controlling and operating
the police forces.
g. Garibaldi and IA other property
owners on New High street, between
Alpine and Bellevue avenue, presented
a petition to the commissioners asking
that an order hitherto issued be revok-
ed, compelling public women to re-
move from New High street. The Pc
tition also asks that they be allowed to
occupy their former quarters.
John Robinson's application was then
received and read. He desires to be
the "dog catcher" and his ambition was
favorably considered by the commission
ers. Henceforth John will sally forth
and spread dismay and CONSERVATION

Virgins Still Writing Letters-The
Souvenir Matter.
In recent letter from Chicago Mr..
Frank Virgins speaks of the attendance
at the grounds. He says that 75 900
persons entered the California building
on July 4th, and all were delighted, with
the exhibit. Many returned the follow
ing day to take more detailed view Of
the variegated assortment of California
products. Mr.. Virgins estimates that
10000 persons on an average visit the
California building every day.
He states that Riverside county has
discontinued its exhibit in the Califor-
MIA building.
+ A telegram was also received from Mr..
Virgins to the effect that all of the or
anges intended to be used to renew the
various displays and designs were kept
in the cold storage building that was
destroyed by fire on Monday and were
totally Lost. There was about half q
carload in the building. Mr.. Virgins
asked if there were any more oranges on
the way. Mr.. Willard wired that there
was, and that another lot would be sent
shortly.

to serve as paper weights, / and are
shaded very prettily and are most uni

round. They are about quarter of an

only objection found to them is their
weight, which may make the freight
charges high but when all the points
are considered they are regarded as
about the most practical article yet sug-
gested. They will be stamped explain
ing for what they are intended. The

cific's new branch from Burbank to Simi
a few days ago. Something over eight
miles from Burbank have been graded,
and rails on the completed portion are
now being laid. The distance to the
pass is % miles. They have large sup
ply of rails and ties on hand, and are
pushing the work az fast as possible.
Surveyors were at work at Santa Susana
pass and had run 20 different lines, but
whether it will 60 through by tunnel
or go over by switch back route is not
yet decided upon. TO build tunnel,
which will be mile long, will cost

THE SANTA FE.
The Santa Fe, in common with most

making heavy reductions in the number
of its employees and ia also economizing
in other directions. in accord with the
policy of the present management. The
entire general offioe OF the Colorado Mid
land was recently dispensed with, in
being consolidated with the Atchison
proper. The oft repeated rumor OF the
consolidation of the Southern California

stand it no longer and left him to earn
her own living, but that he still follows
her up and threatens to kill her when
she refuses to live with him again.

injured her had he not been prevented
from so doing by two companions who
were with her at the time.
