In every respect the Fair now
in progress is better than last
year’s, despite all reports and
statements to the contrary. There
are many more exhibits at the Pavilion than then, and the displays
are better calculated to advertise
the resources of the two counties
most interested and to encourage .
the development of their manifold
and superior resources which have
until a comparatively; recent date
been almost total!y neglected in
many of the most important
branches, The gentlemen co::ifs
prising the Pavilion Committee
have most of them worked
hard and intelligently to bring
about the success of this feature.
Especially is K Casper, the Superintendent, entitled to credit for the
part he has taken. He has to the
neglect of his personal business
affairs early and late, and by his
example and influence enthused
others. He not only arranged ‘the
plans forthe enterprise, but saw
that they were carried out. There
are Other men who could have accomplished what he has done in
this matter, but there are noi
taany who would brave done it at
the cost of somuch time and energy. .
Financially speaking ‘the Pavilion has done much better than at
the first Fair. The following statewent showing the’ cash door receipts for three days last year and

THE FRUIT EXHIBIT.
It has been a subject-of general
remark . by visitors to the Pavilion
since the Fair opened, that the
display of fruits by the 17th Agricultural District has never been
excelled, if ever equaled in this
State. fenator Buck, who has
perhaps handled as much fruit as
any man in California, says he
has never seen so fine peaches or
grapes. J. R. Nickerson, one of
the oldest fruit raisers in the State,
and a man who took all the first
‘premiums on fruit at the State
fair for years, gives it as his opinion that this 17th District can and
from
-does far excel any other part 2f the
State in the pruduction of fruits.
Mr. Bogue, a gentleman of large
experience in fruit culture, says
hat he finally settled gn a piece
of land at Union Hill, Nevada
county, near Grass Valley, where
ne has ‘cleared 40 acres of ground
ind prep: red it for a nursery, and
he is now fully satisfied that he has
+ settled-_in the-right-spot, thatthe
grapes, pears, apples, prunes,
peaches and other fruits shown at
the Pavilion by Placer and Nevada counties are the finest and best
he hasever seen. There is not an
article in the fruit line on. exhibition but what deserves a premium,
but of course only a part will receive awards. Orchards at Lincoln, Newcastle, Ophir, Auburn,
hPenryn, New England Milis, Bear
River, Lowa Hill, Colfax, Durch
Flat as well as different points in
Nevada county are well represented. Everybody should spend at
least a days at the Pavilion before it closes, and see for
themselves what our county is
producing. It only costs twentyfive cents tosee as fine a display
as wasever exhibited: of horticultural productions. The names of
suecessful exhibitors will be published in'a few days with the list
of premiums, and this evening
the red ribbon ‘will be attached
to the first prize plates and the
blue ribbon to the second.

cr At the Park,
There were *between 4,500 and
5,000 people at Glenbrook yesterday to see the great running races
ot the week. :
The gentlemen chosen to serve
as Judges were S. Howarth, J. M.
Walling and Wm Menner. The
Tinvers were Dr.’ Smith and Mr.
Newton.
The initial race was the
TWO MILE AND REPEAT RUN,
Open to all, $50 entrance, $25 for
feit, $500 added. In the podls
Thursday night Moonlight sold
from $6 to $11, John A at $9 and
$10, and Index and Birdcatcher in
the field at from $7 ‘to $10. Yesterday.afternoon before the race
they sold: $80 for Moonlight, $13
for John A and the field at $15.
The cause of John A’s downfall in
pool values is owing to the popular old veteran’s bad condition because of over-work,!ong service and
extended trips by rail teand from
the Eastern States where two or
three years ago he competed successfully with some of the fastest
stock in the country. :
First heat—Moonlight under 93
pounds drew the pole, Index earrying 110 pounds’ second place,
John A with 116 pounds third and
Birdcatcher with 117 pounds. on
the outside. Birdcatcher took the
lead when the starter’s flag went
down. The other three traveled in
a bunch the first mile, and then
Moonlight, the gallant daughter of
brave old Thad Stephens by. a
pretty burst shot ahead and held
the lead with ease to the finish,
which was made in 3:37. John A
came second by a:length, Index
was third, saving. his ‘distance
with difficulty, and Birdcatcher
was distanced. The first mile was
made in 1:49.
At the close of this heat Moonlight brought $20 to, $5 on the
field, but there was not much of a
demand for the low-priced tickets
at even these figures.
Second Heat—They got away
nose and nose, but Moonlight at
once picked out first place, leaving
second for John A.and third for
Index. They got tothe first half
in 553g, to the third quarter in
2134 more, and passed the wire
the first time in 1:48!g. On the
last mile they muintained the
same relative positions, Moonlight going under a pull and John
A doing his level best to overtake
her. Atthe mile and a quarter
Birdcatcher’s tail went up, showing that she was not equal to the
emergency. Old Thad’s descendant came down the home stretch
with head up and his rider sitting
erect. Joha A’s mount used his
whip vigorously, but. to no purpose for he was a full five lengths
to the rear, while Index was in
dangerous proximity to the distance flag.

‘Open to all, $25 entrance, $10 forsition, .Sam Hooper, Pasha’s
driver, heldin his horse and instead of pulling in to take’ the pole
drew to the outside and let Richard Scott dodge ahead of him. It
had been suspected from the time
the scoring began that something
was wrong, and Hoopen’s action
at this juncture clinched the idea
that a swindle was on foot and a
howl of indignation went up on all
sides. Pasha was permitted to

eighth when he was given the}
word and came down in time to
save his distance. Doncaster won
in 2:43, Scott second, Pasha third.

Scott in second place, Frank voming third, and Doncaster on the
outside.
Doncaster sold favorite at $50,
‘Pasha at $18, and the others
bunched at from $6 to $8.
First heat—Doncaster had the
best of the race from the send-off,
but Pasha kept crowding him to
the end, coming under: the wire
just a length behind, and it looked
for a while towards the end, as
though the latver might take heat,
as he traveled steadily while Doncaster wavered. Scott was third
by threeor four lengths. Frink

course to the music of the amusel

Second heat—On the start Pasha got a triflé behind, but at once
buckled down to work. In trying
to pull by Scott who went second,
his sulky collided with Scott's.
This threw Pasha out of guit
and to the outside of the
track. He lost six or seven
lengths by this mishap, . bea retained his nerve and Went’ after
the leaders again. Oa the last
quarter he came buzzing down the
grade at a tremendous step fora

‘place from the chestnut ‘stallion

fhe favorite was a full length behind him, and Scott a poor third.
At the end of this heat Doncaster sold for $8 to $20 for the field.

of game proprietors, : 14 bow the
rural sports were getting away
with the imported sharpers. “One

people to keep on putting up their

Speaking of lucky gamblers, the
one who is reported to have had
the best luck bucking faro this fair
time is known by the euphonious
title of Cariboo George. :

at the Park and evenings at the

[he more that is required of him

corps of assistants and co-workers,

There is talk of taking the mineral collection on exhibition at
the Pavilion to the State Fair at
Sacramento, and from there to
Mechanics Pavilion in San Francisco. The talk should crystallize
into action, and the representation
of the District’s mining resource:
should be added to soas to make
it as complete as possible before
taking it down. The expense
would be scarcely worth mention:

ribbons for those taking premiums

H. B. Nichols’ thoroughbred
Holstein bull, Tehama, a strikingly handsome animal, attracts
much attention. He weighs ‘over
2000" pounds, «having gained 600
pounds in less than two years.
To-day’s trot between Manon,
Frank and Albert W for $1,200
will be the principal racing event
of the week. They. are famous
ravelers, and will’ doubtless du
their best.
Many of the principal mines at
this vity and Grass Valley closed
yesterday, and more of them will
suspend operations to-day, in order to give everybody a chance to
attend the Fair. This action is
what helps out the gate receipts.
