T. M. Callahan Praises California and Exposition.

T. M. Callahan enjoyed his visit to California and the exposition, although he was not very favorably impressed with the weather during the month he was there. It was cool enough all of the time to require an overcoat. He says the Panama-Pa-cific Exposition is a great show and worth the trip. The buildings are fine and the exhibits are extensive and very interesting. The daily admission to the grounds is 50 cents and most of the attractions on the inside are free. There is an additional cost to visit the “canal” which is patented after the real canal and miniature ships are operated to show just how the locks are worked. Hotel accommodations and restaurant service is very reasonable, much more bo than Chicago and Mr. Calalhan states that a good room in a hotel can be secured for $5 per week. Already there have been many visitors from the east and Mr. Callahan thinks that none who go will be disappointed. The San Diego show is a sort of land show and the buildings are very nice but it is a very small affair compared to the international exposition at San Francisco.
