Everybody has races on the. brain. The Sierra Buttes band will arrive here this afternoon, Prominent citizens from all parts of the county are here attending the Fair.

All the groceries in town were closed up yesterday afternoon, in order that the proprietors and employees might have achance-to go tothe races. John A. Ball, of Penn Valley, is announced in this morning’s Transcript as an independent candidate for the Assembly in the 15th District. Judge Walling has treated , himself to a plug hat, and as soon as the Supervisors meet he intends to make a demand on them for a new hat rack. The Republican nominees, who re~ side here (and there are many of them) wear remarkably bright smiles, while those who were defeated do not really feel as bad as one would naturally think they would. : As to the matter of business, we think all the other stores, beside the grocerymen, might just as well have closed up yesterday afternoon, for customers were as scarce as hen’s ‘teeth. The display of fruits and trees grown without irrigation at Pet Hill Farm is the observed of all observers at the Pavilion, That portion of the Bartlett pear belt of Nevada county, is rapidly being improved by horticulturists, and will soon become one of the. most productive portions of California. Thomas Treganza, a former resident of this city, innow an engineer on the Mission street cars, San Francisco.

Forest fires are raging on the Yuba river, just above Purdon’s bridge. This is good ice cream weather, and the demand for that article is on the increase. Lee Craft, of North San Juan, has petitioned the Superior Court for a discharge from his debts, : Jobn German, North San Juan’s popular hotel landlord, came over yes8terday to attend the Fair. Joo Bowers, the popular landlord of the Golden Eagle Hotel, Sacramento, went home yeslerday. Wm. Davis, of the Derbec mine, came down yesterday to attend the Fair. Mrs. J. H.

Woods will be a candidate for re-election to the office of Supervisor. In speaking of his candidacy the Tidings says: ‘‘When Mr. W oods went into office this county was about $45,000 in debt, and now the cdunty indebtedness is about $9,000. When he went into office the taxes in this county amounted to $2 50 on the $100, an. this year taxes will again be reduced and will not be higher than $2 10 on the $100.” ————— hores of tropic isles, Were 8 ithe year bright verdure smiles, Constant fragrance fills the air.

The Pavilion is now well filed with exhibits, and they are of a most interesting character as well as attractively arranged. It is promised that this evening at the Pavilion Hon. John P. Irish will deliver the annual address of the Association, and that there will be a choice program of vocal and instrumental music. The soil products shown are the coming features of the Pavilion display. Never before in Northern Central California was there collected such a meritorious assortment of fruits and garden and farm products. No one would have believed a few years ago that the banner gold mining county of the world had such remarkable fertility horticulturally and agriculturally. The mammoth: squash and pumpkins, the abnormally-developed beets and cabbages, the forty-foot hop-pole with its bulging growth of vine reaching from bottom to top and spreading far out in all directions, the prize peaches, gigantic pears and apples, superior plums, nectarines, prunes, olives and other fruits, to say nothing of the large and luscious grapes, the prize wines towering and full-headed grains and hundreds of other products that would eaure tbe down-East farmer’s eyes to start from their sockets in ustonishment and fill his heart with envy, tell a tale of the foot-hill country’s tillable value that is much more convincing than anything which tongue or type can say. The fancy work entries are of course numerous. The ladies ofthis Agricultural District take great delight in such things and their husbands and sweethearts evidently encourage them in the development cf the esthetic side of their nature, although said husbands and-sweethearts do not appear to devote much time to looking at the products of their fair ones’ skill, taste and labor when said fancy work is displayed in all its glory during fair time. It is a pity that the Pavilion does not contain a more comprehensive mineral display—one that will give a better idea of Nevada county’s resources in the line of indtstry which is after all its mainstay and yields greater financial returns than all its other industries combined. The ore pyramid near-the center of the ,Hall looks lean and hungry, and whispers of neglect. The exhibits from the mines should have been. made one of the chief features of the Fair, but there seems to have been no one to give them the special and enthusiastic atson and Henderscn have had so many things to look after they could not be expected to make a specialty of this one, TODAY’S EVENTS. The events announced for thé Park today are as follows: Grand Stock Parade at 10 a. m. No. 7. Running—District $25 entrance, $10 forfeit, $100 added. Second horse $50. Wm.

Temple éame under the wire second, Haytaire barely saving her distance. Second heat—Temple took this heat in 2:34, Haymond second, Barbaro third, Bedforth fourth and Soltaire distanced. Between this and the third heat a troupe of gymnasts, including one woman and two men, from Fourpaugh’s defunct circus, gave a trapeze performance inside the track, then passed the hat for contributions. A few drops of sain fell while the show was in progress. eee Fonrth heat—Won by Temple in 2:3234, Hayward a close second. Several fouls were claimed during the race, hence the judges reserved their decision till ten o’clock this morning. Rich Mineral Specimens. Many very rich specimens from Nevads county mines are being collected for the State Fair. Among those that came in yesterday were some pieces of ore heavily charged with gold that came from the Gold Canyon Mine of DNR. McKillican & Co. above North Bloomfield.
