The Utah building is lighted with electricity, elec-tricity, and ia made very prominent to the crowd. " Say, you want to burn Utah Into us, don't you?" was the remark of one of a large partv Hint took in the sights.

Utah exhibits attract much attention; atten-tion; the concentrator mill Is especially it jo nn.- j, k&i untitle lur a stated run every day, and now that power and water have been supplied. It will be one of the features of the exhibition. ex-hibition.

The fair is well along; it Is surprising surpris-ing how quickly things aro put in place. The only exhibit that now shows any particular sign of backwardness is In the machinery building, and that is rapidly getting Into shape. All other exhibits are in fair shape, and the extent, ex-tent, variety, and excellence of these Is phenomenal; it seems as if the- world has been raked to supply the material. Mr. Judd is in tho best of health and will now turn his attention to procuring pro-curing an exhibit of fruit that will do credit to tho State at the great fair. |
