SANTA BARBARA. July 30.-The first
excursion to Santa Barbara passes into
history as great success. Over 1900 peo-
pie arrived. Accommodations were
ample and visitors we're offered all the
attractions and amusements that could be
desired. Everybody was charmed with
the Channel city. An immense crowd Of
citizens with band of music and usher
carrying baskets of flowers for the ladie
met the incoming trains and fittingly
welcomed the strangers. A telegram was
received here stating that the second train
would arrive at 8 p. M, but this special
was in a hurry and waived convention
alities by pulling up at the ChappaIa street
station at 2:30. With all other delega-
tions, however, the committee, music
and flowers managed to make connec-
tions.
Some went back Sunday and Monday.
but large number remained to take i'll
the sights and attend the festivals The
bicycle races this afternoon we're well at
tended. most of the entries being from
Los Angeles and towns further south,
which was shown by the appearance of
several red wheels, SO common in Los Al
ge les, and none of which ever were seen
here before. This afternoon large con-
course Of spectators are at Agricultural
park Witnessing an exciting exhibition
called the Spanish wild.west show, con.
sisting of bronco breaking, waving red
flannel before angry bulls and the per-
formance of numberless vaquero feats.
Dances and entertainments are going on
nightly and the strangers enjoy daily
drives to points Of interest.
