Interest in the Fair.

Secretary Smith says there are many
inquiries for space at the coming State
Fair, and all the signs are that it will
be great success. 1t becomes more

be literally patroniZed.

ROOM FOR THE BIG CROWD.
PAVILION ADMIRABLY AR.
RANGED FOR CONVENTIONS.
Plenty Of Space for Committees
and District Conventions
Under One Roof.

After many days of careful prepara-
ton the Pavilion is now in fine shape
for the convention on Tuesday. A Rec
ord Union" reporter, who yesterday Wis
tied the great octagonal hall where the
day, found the general work completed
and the numerous minor details that
will add to the comfort of delegates are
we'll under way.
1t was apparent at a glance that the
Pavilion is one of the grandest meeting
places in the country for large bodies
are split into sub-conventions and COM
mittee sessions.
The Speakers stand and the great
platform of which it is a part. will be
at The west end of the Pavilion, afford
ing ample room for the Secretaries and
assistants on the lower level. Over the
stand will be the portraits of George
Washington, Grover Cleveland and
Governor Budd while the white can
vas walls, covering fifteen thousand
yards, VIII be emblazoned with the
coats-of-arms of every State in the
Union
Seats have been arranged in convent
sand delegates, while the railing behind
will afford ample space for at least
eighteen hundred spectators, the entire
hall being admirably arranged for ven
tilaticn and ingress and egress. Six
large halls are Immediately adjacent
to the main edifice, all amply arranged
for the sessions of the district conven-
tions. This arrangement will facilitate
n nf
especially since there are also ample
rooms for the meetings of all commit
tees that may meet from time to time.
If it should be that there is not room
for all the conventions and committees
which is most able-arrange-
ments have been completed for accom-
modations al the Capitol. This Will en-
able all the business of the convention
to be dispatched without delay on ac-
count Of the location of the rooms In
this way, also, there may be frequent
conferences between committees with
out Inconvenience.
The headquarters of the Democratic
State Central Committee will be at the
Golden Eagle Hotel. 1t is requested by
the committee that all proxies report
at once on their arrival so their names
delay. By an order issued yesterday
morning, it is requested that the Chair
man of every delegation at once report
| at committee headquarters and pro-
cure badges for his delegation. Press
headquarters have been located at room
| H. Breuner building. The Committee
| on Accommodation will have headquar-
| ters in the same building and in the
same room.
! Under the arrangements as already
/ completed, it is evident that the coming
/ convention will have as many accom-
| modations as We're ever offered to a
| body of visiting delegates anywhere in
! the State. The Pavilion space is so
great and the juxtaposition Of the rooms
I to one another SO convenient, that it
! is doubtful whether any convention has
ever been so we'll arranged.
