Collected Among the Crowds at the
Pavilion,

Adrift with the sea OF humanity at the
Mechanics Pavilion ii is curious to note the
vastly differing types Of visitors.
There is the eager. frst-,ime- Z ve- BEEN
here visitor. who is dazsd by the sudden
blaze of light dszzled by the riot of color
and clearly ratified" by the hum aud con-
fusion. together with the vast extent Of the
wonders be is supposed to inspect.
Then there is the languid, rather blase
young season-tieket man, who has never
missed a night" For him the wire-edge of
novelty has W ORR of and he apparently
takes 10 further interest in the exhibits be-
yoDd the unsreing glance. which is pro b.
ably all he has ever bestowed upon them.
His hstless gaze is only lit 10 interest as
he scans the prospect of faces before him,
and in his irreproaehable attire is strictly en-
evidence.
Far different from the avowed masher
who IS also obtrusively present at intervals
or the merry maiden. for whom the fair
means q time and occasion for filtration,
ice-cTeam soda and unlimited candy.
The pioneer type, too. is a clearly cut
cameo of the fair. He inspects the exhibits
slowly and with an impresslYely judicial
air. Every fair is for him a notable oppor-
tuDily for "reminiscences. for he is continu-
ally comparing the primeyal wilderness
which bis beloved Golden State has been
transformed
The types are multitudinous, and each has
It's peculiar interest.
They were all there last night, and
although 1t was prominently HumboldFs
night, yet the other exhibits and local booths
Dad thelr own circles or constant admirers
Tonight VIII be Alsmeda's night ami the
sister county OF San Francisco will be the
focus Of attention.
Alameda is one of the richest counties of
the State, and her exhibit is well worthy of
close attention. according to the experts.
Ex-Mayor w. w. Davis will speak on her
behalf. and there will probably be vocal
music. a large contingent Of Oakland and
Alameda County people will be over in
honor OF their mp0rtant section of the State.
The address will probably me made from
the bandstand after the Rock Of Ages"
scene. ApTopOs of this scene il WAS pro-
posed at the meeting of the fair directors
last night 10 take this under their own con-
troll. The exi ense nightly is considerable.
and It Is thought the interest taken in the
tableau Justihgs the step. To-day voting
papers as TO the popular decision which is
the most artistic EXHIBIT will be distribu' ed
in the Pavilion. Another attraction will be
The famous picture of 1.-The Bishop" loaned
for the occasion, to be placed in the picture
gallery.
