Exoursion.

The A6airs ct the worlds FAir--xhs
Excursion.
The proposed ''river of lemonade" iol
California day at the worlds fair has
been deemed impracticible and will
have to be abandoned. Mr.. Robert
Mc6arvin, who was the originator oi
the chamber Of commerce excursion to
Chicago, also first proposed the idea OF
having the river Of lemonade.
Mr.. Willard has investigated the
feasibility of the project and writes az
follows from Chicago:
"This is to confirm my telegram OF
even date. as follows as Better abandon
the lemonade plan. Virgins thinks it
not feasible.' There are two reasons for
this. First, the California people and
the national commission have made
other arrangements which seem to me
to be quite as good as the one you pro-
proposed, and, secondly, the exhibits in
the building are placed go close together,
and they are Of such q permanent
character, that it would not be
possible to find any room to
construct the river and to &C.
comodate the enormous crowds that IL
would bring. 1t would cauee jam in
in the building that we could not pos
sibly handle, and that might prove dun
gerous. The number of people that are
here now without any special induce
ment is 30 appalling that it tfrightens me
to think OF the bowling mob that free
lemonade would turn loose on the build
ing;
although. / had placed them very high.
l do not believe that anybody that
comes on that excursion, no matter
what trouble or expense it costs him,
will regret it. You will have great
time, and I am more sorry than ever
that will not be with you.
''Tbe California display is magnificent,
and my bosom swells almost to bursting
with pride when l hear people on the
streets, on the cars and all over town
talking about it,"
Mr.. McGarvin has received samples
of moonstones from Redondo beach,
which it is proposed to take to Chicago
on the excursion for souvenirs OF this
section. A number of the stones will
be cut and polished by lapidary and
will be very neat mementos.
Fully three carloads for the worlds
fair chamber of commerce excursion
were booked up to O'Clock last evening
and the reduction in rates will insure q
special train of not less than six car
loads. As already noted this train will
be a solid vestibuled and only members
of the chamber of commerce and their
families will be entitled to tickets. Mr..
Dan Freeman will be the master of cere-
monies and in charge of the excursion.
The Santa Fe company will also get up
an itinary of the trip which will be pre-
sented to the passengers as souvinir
of the excursion.

Mr.. l. R. Champlin, an old gentleman
rs years of age, who is in California for
his health, was unfortunate enough yes.
terday to get arrested.
The old gentleman was enjoying the
afternoon sun on Spring street, when he
saw colored girl wheeling baby in a
baby carriage.
The girl was paying more attention TO
the paesers-by than the baby and had
given the carriage to a little 4-yeal-old
boy to push. The boy overturned the
carriag0 and the child of misfortune in
side ofslt fell out on the pavement with
about a ton of groceries on top of it.
Mr.. Champlin is lover of babies and,
seeing the accident, reprimanded the
colored girl n lo1 u LEI t- ralessness. Greatly
out a complaint for his arrest upon Q
charge of disturbing the peace.
Mr.. Champlin was arraigned late IN
the afternoon before Justice Seaman
and pleaded not guilty, his case being
! set for hearing tomorrow.
Mr.. Champlin is we'll known and
respected in this city, and was highly
indignant at being subjected to the
humiliation OF arrest.
