San Francisco makes the prettiest exhibit of any. Her building has been thronged each day since it opened and the attend- | ance increases dally. George P. Wil- comb and Mr. Erwin are both kept v attending to the visitors and sup- ing information. It will be several days before the final work is done on the exhibit. HUNDREDS OF VISITORS. The few days that the building has been open have been sufficlent to show that San Francisco is fortunate | to be represented in the model city and that if the work is carried along in the“proper manner the coast me- tropolis will be given one of the most | beneficial advertisements it has ever had. Hundreds of visitors make in- quiry especially about the sea voyage to the Orient, the Antipodes, Hawail and the South Sea Islands, and they all show deep interest in everything else San Franciscan. The University of California Glee Club, which has sung at the San Fran- cisco and State buildings several times, has made a hit at the fair and | visitors strive for opportunities to | hear it. The stvZent singers will soon be home in California. They took trips on the lagoon two or three nights |and the much talked of “singing gon- doliers” had to wrap their moth-eaten voices up those nights and remain mute, while the crowds in the boats kept in the wake of the university singers and instrumentalists. On the Pike the boys have been swept into shows by pleased managers, who have enjoyed their singing outside. The building for the Benguiat col- lection of Persian fabrics and old world relics that is coming from San Fran- cisco will soon be under way. Mordecal Benguiat, who is superintending the work, is recelving every assistance from the fair management, which is anxious to have the exhibit installed as soon as possible, as it deems it an attractive feature. TEACHERS ARRIVE. | An excursion from Southern and Cen- | tral California with which was a Fres- no party of fifty people, mostly teach- | ers of that county, has arrived.

The ostrich plumes shown in the Los Angeles exhlbit hold a crowd of ladies daily. They are of beautiful variety and perfectly curled and to the femin- ine sex they are a great attraction. Through the Republican convention at Chicago, just ended, and the Demo- cratic gathering of the same nature to be held here in a few days, the throng of Californians at the exposition has been greatly augmented. There is a steady influx now from the farther Wi St. Louis is more easily reached by the people of the coast than is Chi- cago—at least it seems closer to them —and more Pacific Coast dwellers are likely to attend this fair than visited that at Chicago.
