Los Angeles visitors are greatly pleased with the fine exhibit of their county and those of the others south of Tehachapi. The immense walnuts shown by Los Angeles attract as much attention as anything else in her va- ried display. Everything has been ar- ranged with an artistic skill and beau- ty of design that have brought many compliments to Commissioner Wiggins and Charles Wilson, his assistant, who hawg paid particular attention to this installation. They are old hands at the businéss, and invaluable to the Los Angeles boomers. They never lose their skill in this line, for, like the politi- cian, Los Angeles never cleses one cam- paign but she begins the next. When one exposition ends she is framing her plans for the one to come and the re- sult is always a rich and beautiful dis- play, shown to the very best advan- tage. Los Angeles was ready when the fair opened, because experience had taught those having her interests in charge to begin early, and with plans worked out to the last mural peanut. The facade of the Los Angeles ex- hibit is constructed so as to exactly match that of the entire California sec- tion, green background, peanut trim- mings, oranges and all. This causes Los Angeles to blend harmoniously with the State’s part of the work and gives a pretty effect. Commissioner Wiggins is especlally proud of Mr. Wilson and the latter’s skill at installation. “Why, I took him oft a farm ten years ago, and look at what he can do now,” sald Wiggins proudly one day to some visitors who were admiring the exhibit. “He’s a genlu." Henry C. Keyes, treasurer and secre- tary of the Sacramento Natural Gas Company; F. W.

Arizona street, Mrs. John Kelly, wife of a former prominent Alderman of Butte, lles dying. For days Mrs. Kelly has lain in the little shanty that she calls home without food, money or friends. The police to-day found her moaning with pain and tossing on her little rickety bed. Mrs. Kelly's recent illness is due to a fight that she had with a neighbor several days ago. She was hit on the head with a broomstick and was fatally injured. Mrs, Kelly to-day is more than 60 yearg of age. Years ago she was con- sidered a belle and the center of life in Butte when this city was but a rough mining camp. Her husband was well Surgeon P. G.
