~
ever held in this or any other city. Two
mors days of pleasure for those who will
avail themselves of it. Two more days
of hard work and anxiety on the part OF
the management Anxiety because the
, financial success of the fair is not yet an
assured fact. If any profits shall be made
they must accrue in the remaining two
DAYS. There is no doubt that the attend
ance from now to the close of the fair will
be larger than on any of. the proceeding
days, but whether the receipts will be
large enough to place the balance on the
right tide of the ledger remains TO be
seen.
Never before have the people of Los An
geles had an opportunity to see an exhibit
ton of such exceeding merit at so little
cost. Never before have they had a chance
to hear such charming music in their
own city. That they have not more I'M
animously taken advantage of the oppor-
tunity is to be wondered at. 1t is to be
hoped that all those who have failed to
visit the fair up to the present will make
it point to do so before it closes Satur-
day night.
The attendance yesterday was good
compared with some of the preceding
DAYS. The Wagner concert in the after
noon by Cassasa's band brought out a
large number of the music loving people
of the city. The performance was one of
the best rendered during the progress OF
the exhibition. A good sprinkllng OF
Characterization citizens were among
the audience and they applauded vocifer
ously the music OF their favorite COM
poser.
So charmed with the music were num-
Der of the German residents that they
have requested the management TO get
Director Cassasa to repeat the Wagner
concert Sunday afternoon. The matter is
under advisement and if sufficient press
ure is brought to bear, it may be that
sacred concert will be held Sunday.
The line of carriages drawn up in front
OF the Pavilion last night, was greater
than at any pervous time during the
fair, indicating that society had turned
out in force. The local 400 were there,
and on the whole the crowd was the
most fashionable since the opening night.
Yesterday was Ventura county day, but
there were few representatives of the
county in attendance. County pride has
not had the effect of bringing many peo-
pie TO the fair from any of the counties
that have had days dedicated to them. 1t
is expected that Los Angeles county day
today will be an exception. Word has
been received from Pasadena, Pomona,
Long Beach and other towns that large
delegations will be on hand to swell the
throng on the day specially designated as
the one on which Los Angeles county en-
thusiasm should manifest itself. Unless
all signs fail, this day will be the record
breaker of the fair.
The feature of the fair today will be the
conference between representatives of the
Southern California Fruit Exchanges
and Los Angeles business men. The
Exchange managers have extended invi
lx1.,e %l,1l 1.
of Commerce, the Board of Trade, Mer-
chants Association, Clearing House and
members of the press. Assurances have
been received that many representative
business men will be present.
The meeting will be held in the Assem-.
bly, room of the Pavilion at II o. clock a. m.
4. President Patterson of the Chamber OF
made by President Naftger of Citrus Fair
Association, also President of the South
ern California Fruit Exchanges; Mr..
Chamberlin of Riverside, the originator of
the exchange system, and others. 1t is
expected that the meeting will be the
means of cementing stronger bond OF
sympathy between the citrus fruit pro-
ducers of Southern California and the
business men of the community.
At the expiration OF the conference the
business men will be the guests of the Ex-
changes at an informal luncheon.
At O'Clock this afternoon the inmates
OF the Catholic Orphans Home will be
given an opportunity TO see the falr free
of charge. There are about 300 of these
parentless little tots and it will be worth
more than the price of admission to see
them enjoy themselves. The electric rail
way will carry the children to the fair
and return, gratis.
Today is the last of the two which the
promises of 1000 odd citizens to attend
.A f,,tr 10 Il
of these pledges were presented yesterday
and it is expected that the rest will be
taken up today. The ladies who secured
the signers are going to see that the goods
are delivered.
