EXHIBITION ATTRACTIONS.

The executive committee of the Home
PRODUCTS exhibition held a meeting at
the Merchants and Manufacturers
association rooms in the Wilcox build
ing last night. The evening was de-
voted to transacting routine business.
1t was decided to offer a cash prize of
$15 to the exhibitor who shows the best
decorated booth at the pavilion on Sat-
urday, January 16. An attraction has
been secured in the way of an animato-
scope, an improvement on the vitascope,
which is to be exhibited each evening
during the exposition. This instrument
will throw an illustrations on a canvas
12xl6 feet, and will undoubtedly prove
great drawing card. The line of
march for the opening procession on
January 16 was agreed upon as follows:
The procession will form OH Los Angeles
street, and will proceed north around
the plaza and south on Main to Temple.
and then east to Main, down Main to
Fifth, west on Fifth to Spring, north or
Spring to Temple, west on Temple to
Broadway, and south on Broadway to
Fifth, then west to Hazards pavilion.
where the procession will disband.
1t was decided to offer gold medal
for the best and handsomest display
by an amateur photographer, a silver
medal for the best composition and, a
bronze medal for the best instantaneous
pictures of moving objects The bid
of William Gritt flor furnishing
electric lights for the pavilion during
the three weeks of the exhibition was
accepted.

piled with the Fuller combination bibs
and patent wastes of latest invention.
The work ON the bath rooms and lava
tories Is artistic and of the very latest
improvements. The lavatories are sup
piled with ornamental, heavy, copper :
lined tanks
The steam plant, also furnished by
Newell Brothers, is most complete, ani
combines many new features now used
for the first time in Los Angeles. Every
thing in this plant is in duplicate, so
that should one engine or boiler become
disabled, the other could be started in n
few seconds, without the least interrupt
tion in the running of the plant The
boilers are the Heine safety water
tubes. The fuel used is crude oil, two
sets of burners being included in the
plant.
THE PLASTERING
Mr.. Christopher Hanson has shown in
his work that plasterer is not always
a plain mechanic in his work. but can
combine the artistic with it in such a
manner as to greatly enhance the beauty
of building. In this hotel he has put in
over 10000 square yards of plain plas-
tering and about three miles of molding,
but 1t is his plastic ornamental work IN
the cornices of the rooms and halls, made
from original designs by Morgan &
Walls, that compels admiration.
THE PAINTING.
The painting and vanishing were done
by ID. +. Horgan of the Monarch Sign
company. of 111H North Main street.
Seventy thousand square feet of surface
were covered with the best quality of
paint, and the promptness and thor
oughness of the work is the only creden-
tial Mr.. Horgan will need in the future.

The Pasadena and Pacific will shorten

The Mateo street and Santa Fe avenue

In the year just gone the Mount
Lowe railway was extended far into the
terminus.
The Home Products exhibit to be held
in this city this month will bring out
some facts about Los Angeles, manu-
featuring that will surprise some peo-
pie.
The fact that the local production of
crude petroleum amounts to about
1900 barrels and Los Angeles and inter-
mediate neighborhood use it all is sig
nificant. Wheels go round in Los An
gees.
The walnut crop of Southern Califor-
MIA in the past year is said to have net
ted half million dollars.
Orange shipments this season have
already amounted to over 900 carloads.
The expectation is that the total crop
Will amount to at least $500 carloads.
The grain crop, which fell far short
in 1896, is sure to be good in 1897. the

credit of equlpping The Van Nuys in
this particular. This firm Is the electrical
contractors.
When the Hotel Van Nuys is opened
for business, there will be twenty miles
of telephone wires In operation, besides
$4,000 feet of red-core Habirshaw wire.
Every room Will be furnished with A
long-distance as well as local tele-
phone. This dispenses with the use of the
call bell altogether
Another Interesting point is that all
the electric wires in this hotel are COW
cred with iron armored conduits, MAX
ing the electric circuits fire proof. There
Is no other building west of Chicago
similarly provided. There are twelve
arc lights In addition to the many incan.
descent lamps-all being controlled by
wall switches.
The large marble switch board in the
basement was designed by Wybro Il
Lawrence, and Is of home manufacture.
This firm are also putting in am electrical
ventilating apparatus-or rather
several of themy-there being two
in the main dining room and another
large one for the kitchen. Another
novel feature is the electrical motor for
running the ice cream plant.
Six hundred ircandescent lamps will
light the dining room while the aggre-
gate number for the first floor alone will
be one thousand lights. The terminals
of the electric wires are all made in
iron boxes, another precautlon against
fire.
Messrs. Wybro & Lawrence, who
are now located at 500 South Broadway.
have put in the electrical work on
many of the largest buildings in the
city.
THE ELEVATORS AND STAIRWAYS
The Llewellyn Iron works of this city
have furnished and installed the ele-
vator system of the Hotel Van Nuys.
There are two passenger elevators, be-
sides the hydraulic elevators intended
for freight. They were made by the
Standard Elevator and Manufacturing
company of Chicago, and they embraced
every device for safety that has yet
been Invented In fact, a serious ac-
cident is impossible, as there are auto

that every trust operating in the state

antitrust law, enacted by the recent
general assembly. AS a result OF the
operation OF that measure, the American
Tobacco company, the potash trust, the
snuff trust, the coffee trust, the match
and other trusts that have been operat-
ing in Georgia, have notified jobbers
and merchants throughout the state
handling their goods that the antitrust
act makes their existing contracts un-
lawful, and they would, therefore, no
loI,ger be considered by either party.
This throws the long closed market wide
