THOROUGHBRED POULTRY
This Will Be a Big Attraction at the
Coming Fair
Finely-The Display Promises to Be
Larger and Better Than Ever

The preliminary arrangements for the
forthcoming district agricultural fair are
progressing finely, and. drawing conclu-
sions from present Indications, the DIS
play Of general farm products will be
much better and more extensive than
usual. One feature will be more promi-
men. this year than last, viz: the poultry
exhibit. The interest manifested by farm
ers and breeders OF thorough bred fowls
has induced the board of directors to
make several alterations and additions to
the buildings devoted to this purpose.
There will be an extra building erected
to accom- mt date the display of fine birds
and pigeons; in addition there is to be
quaint incubator contest open to all,
the idea being to SO time the Matching
that the little bipeLs will come upon the
stage of action during the days that the
fair is in session. This will certainly be
drawing card, and appeal alike to the
interest of the public and the practical
poultryman.
The Fair association will pay the usual
premiums on all varieties and classes of
birds recognized in the American Poultry
Standard. Every arrangement for the
comfort and convenience of exhibits and
exhibitors has been arranged for. That
veteran breeder and fancier. Mr.. s. Tyler
of Pasadena, will be in charge. while a
night watchman will also be provided to
prevent the raising OF poultry during
the night la Mark Twain's system.
During the past two years the poultry
industry has progressed rapidly in South
ern California, anu it is the purpose of
the fair management to afford every faci.
lily for fdrawing out q big show of the
feathered beauties. That their efforts
will be successful goes without saying.
Breeders will only be consulting their
own interests by entering good strings
all along the line. The Judges will be an
nounced in few days.

Vetter Will Insist That Fire En-.
gines Be Shifted
THE MATTER WAS HUNG UP
While Vetter Was Absent In the

turn--Inslsts That His Reform
Must at Once Prevail

Fire Commissioner Louis F. Vetter has
q chip on his shoulder and it looks as if
he and his colleague Fire Com m ssoner
Jake Kuhrtz are to fall afoul of each
other. The bone of contention between
them is whether or not it is for the bcst
interests of the city. and of ali concerned
to make certain and particular change
in the fire department.
Commissioner Kuhrtz is an old fire.
man, one of the oldest in this vicinity,
and what he does not know OF fire ap-
planes and fire fighting is worth hunt
ing up in books to find out. Kubrtz was
a fire chief when the whole of Los A n

in a grip sack and shipped as hand bag.
gage to any point in the universe.
Vetter is, on the other hand,
young man and young insurance man
at that, who is serving on the board of
fire commissioners as a practical under
writer. Some time ago. about the time
that the Dawson residence on Ingra ham
street was burned to the ground because
the Ninth street engine was too heavy
to climb the hill and assist in sub
DUNG the flames. Commissioner Vetter
thought that he realized that some of
the engines in the department we're not
properly distributed. In the downtown
districts, all of the heavy engines were
stationed and in the hill districts could
be found all OF the light apparatus. Vet
ter officially brought the matter to the
attention of his colleagues and contended
for change in the existing state
of affairs.
Commissioner Kuhrtz, while he did not
take the opposite side, rather damned
Vetter's idea with certain amount OF
faint praise. The proposition vas laid
over for time, and Vetter'a motion for
a change was finally adopted. The pro-
posed change was to have taken effect in
October.
Commissioner Vetter had occasion to
60 east in the early days of September,
and he must have reached Omaha in his
peram bulations, when Commi ssiOner
Kuhrtz reintroduced into the board of
fire comm issioDers the subject of shift
ing Of fire engines. The matter was
again debated pro and con, and the result
was that the proposed change was post
poned for one month.
Commi Missioner Vetter returned from his
vacation Wednesday, and the first thing
he inquired about after he found that
the Sunset club was still on earth was
how the new change of engines in the
Chief Ed r. Smith broke the news gently
to Vetter and the air i'll thas particular
part of tho city hall was for few brief
moments hazy with sulphur. Vetter
finally raced up stairs to see the mayor,
and
When the board of fire conf issioneYs

MATTERS METAPHYSICAL
W. J. ColviIIe Spoke Yesterday on the Sub

W. J. Colville Spoke Yesterday on the Sub.
ject Concentration .'..{
". J. Colvllle of Boston, who is now
delivering a course of lectures in Music
hall on metaphysical topics, spoke twice
yesterday on the subject of concentration
before good audiences. The following
were among the prominent thoughts
suggested
The interest now being taken in all
that bears the name of occultism is man
ifestly due to the prevailing spirit of un
rest which possesses almost all com I'm uni
ties. The gold feve. has ragged and is
passing away and IN place thereof atten
ton is being turned to nobler ideals AS
we ascend the scale IN our intellectual
and moral progress we find use for
higher plane for the faculties previously
enlarged in sordid pursuits but as our
attention was formerly turned to mate
rial acquisition we now direct our ener-
gies to the building up of permanent in
ward greatness.
The yoga practice of India is an ex-
IRENE illustration of what cau be- accom-
plished through persistent concentration,
but many of the oriental methods are i'll
adapted to the western world. 1t is OF
little ma tier whether we engage in pre-
sGribed external exercises or not, for the
value of any practice is in its spirit far
more than in its letter. The cele brated
Indian secret science can only be nc
counted or by reference TO telepathy, and
in order to practice any phase Ut mental
telegraphy OF mental healing it is essen
tial that the sender Of the m essage should
have developed to large extent the
habit of concentration.
Success in every conceivable undertake
ing has Its foundation in concentrated
state of mind, and until people admit to
themselves that they can keep their
thoughts fixed on whatever they desire
TO the complete defiance of distur bling in
fiuences. they have crossed the threshold
of the temple of necessary control.
The lecturer advised his hearers to Sc
lect topic or an object and steadily
hold it before the mental vision as long
as possible. and in order to facilitate re-
suits he urged them TO mediate only
upon something they regarded as very
i'm portant. Several questions were an
swered at the close of the lectures. The
next lecture takes place this evening at
clock.
