Trustees of the Mechanics Insti-
tote Whose "FIome Product"
Fair Opens This Evening at
the Pavilion.

hibtion of home products appeared at the
Mechanics Pavilion yesterday afternoon.
There was hardly booth that was not
up and finished, ready for the reception of
the articles to be displayed in them, and
quite mum Der were in that state of COM
pletion as to displ avs as to warrant tt e
judges who are to award the prizes for the
best exhib ready on opening day passing
upon them, but of course that will not be
done until late in the evening. The names
of the judges will not be announced until
the three prize-wlnners are named. This
idea of offering cash prizes for best and
most complete displays on the day the
fair is thrown open has proved a stimu-
lating incentive to hurry up matters, and
for this the patronizing public will be
thankful.
Abound the side6oors on Grove and
Polk streets there was all day yesterday a
perfect jam of. delivery-wagons, loaded
with goods of all kinds, and there was a
rush of men unloading heavy articles into
the large building, and active young men,
women and children receiving and carry
ing light bundles and parcels to the va
rious points where they were to be placed
on show. There was hurrying to and
fro; exhibitors with goods jostled against
mechanics at work, in their eagerness to
deposit their bundles where they could be
opened and arranged on tables or shelves
to the best advantage. The superintend-
ent, Mr.. Gilmore, and his assistant, Mr..
Clark, were surrounded all day long by
interested parties, anxious to know about
their rights.
A score of workmen were busy putting
on the finishing touches on the miniature
exhibit of the Union works, placing the
different limitations of workshops, ship
ways, executive buildings, railways and
storehouses in the relative position they
occupy in the great yard in the Potrero.
In the annex in which this is located there
will be fine electric-light display, and
the next most attractive exhibit in the
same room will be that of the Dairy
Union.
In machinery hail there is very large
display of what California mills and
foundries can turn out, and great deal
OF the machinery will be in operation.

City Board of Trustees,

ALAMEDA, CAL, Aug. 31.-A commu-
nication was received from the Education
Board by the City Trustees at its regular
meeting this evening. 1t estimated that
S9607 would be required from the city next
year for the High School, which would
necessitate levy of S.5 cents per 800. For
the primary and grammar schools the
sum OF SIG, $50 would be required, the pro-
portion of the tax levied being 14.5 cents
per 500. Accounts to the amount of
1882 68 were passed for payment and $500
was transferred to the health fund from
the general fund. The Oregon Improve
meut Company was awarded the contract

If William Bryan of Nebraska came to
Oakland he would probably draw crowd
out OF curiosity, but they certainly would
not be Democrats, for so far none have
been heard from since the Chicago circus,
when Pilates instrument of torture was
used with success as the key to a Presi-
dental nomination.
When are the Democrats of Alameda
County going to ratify2 is the question
asked by everybody, but SO far no one has
been able to reply.
There are few Democrats left in the
county, but they have not yet mustered
up enough courage to ratify the Chicaeo 0
platform and nominees, and so with the
exception OF one or two, who manage to
keep to the front and would do So no
matter to what party they belonged, the
voice OF the Demo crat is heard no more in
the land. The party in this county is
about equally divided between sound
money men and Populists.
Nothing is being left undone by the Re-
publican party to win back for Alameda
the banner that was carried to Los An
geles in sackcloth and ashes a couple of
years ago. Next Saturday night w. r.
Davies and Senator Perkins will go to
Llvermore to open the campaign there.

Leach of the Oakland Enquirer conducted

night publishes the following statement
concerning the two papers he purchased
Saturday:
cit was announced Saturday that the
new proprietor OF the Times and Item
would, on account of the many inquiries
as to the disposition of the latter publica-
ton. receive lids for its purchase up to
Monday noon, August 81. 1t may be in
teresting 10 know that not single bid was
received: consequently it will not be sold,
and as The new owner will not advance
several hundred dollars per month to keep
it alive, the Item has appeared for the last
time.
The total receipts for the Item for its
four months existence were less than
$500, or $500 per month, and the extra ex-
pense TO the Times for producing it was
double that. So it may be considered,
with this evidence, that the effort to estab-
lish penny paper in Oakland has been
failure"

906 Broadway, Aug. 81. {
Mr.. and Mrs. Daniels late of Thirty
third street, have been located in San
Francisco and a delegation of their old
acquaintance in North Oakland are
arranging to give them surprise party at
the fashionable boarding house where
they are now re siding.
A few weeks ago Mr.. Daniels disap-
peared. He left his wife to go East, at
least so she told her neighbors, and time
passed away and nothing was heard of
him. Although the Danielses lived in q
comfortable furnished home near Tele-
graph avenue and appeared to be very
prosperous, their neightors learned with
some surprise that when the husband de-
parted he left his wife with just so cents,
which of course was soon exhausted. The
charitable neighbors sympathized with
the heartbroken wife and gave her food
and looked after her health.
So deeply was Mrs. Daniels affected
when it was reported that her husband
might have been taken suddenly i'll that
for time she had to be watched night
and day.
One day Mrs. Daniels disappeared also,
and her many sympathizers thought she
had gone and drowned herself and her
sorrow in the cold waters of the bay. The
next chapter was devoid of all sympathy.
The landlady appeared on the scene,
and although she had been very sympa-
thetic toward the deserted wife, the prac-
teal side of her nature asserted itself and
expressed very positive views which were
based on the fact that the family with
aristocratic pretensions had. for quite a
time, neglected to attend 10 the rent. Other
matters of similar nature had also been
neglected, and several people regretted
that they had met the man who was
associated with mines and Stocks
When the landlady inspected her de-
serted house she found that her late
tenants had not been any more careful than
aristocratic people are generally and she
would like to meet the Danielses and have
a settlement for damages as well as rent.
Now the discovery has been made that
Mr.. Daniels did not perish on his way
East, and Mrs. Daniels did not court sur
cease from broken heart off Goat Island,
but that both are enjoying life as much as
ever in San Francisco.
Their neighbors are not at all backward
in expressing their views of the circum-
stances and declare that they will at once
advise the present landlord of the Danielses
that their tenants are subject to disappear
ance and other little Irregularities not I'M
common TO some people that ARE asso-
c!ated with mines and stocks"
