Men certainly never worked better, and all the
directions Of Capt. Tucker and the orders given
by him, were not only well timed, but success.

awarded them; and am really glad that you,

done this, trust you will 60 still further, and
do equal justice to other parties not named In

fuckers company, also worked with great
energy and zeal exposing himself 10 as much
danger as any person at the Ere. Ordnance
Sergeant Afehbold was also very efficient and
rendered most excellent service, and deserves
equal praise with the rest. B.
PRnPEruAL Mofios.-A Vermont Yankee
claims to have invented self prCpelIing wheel

as propeller. On the same axle on which
the metal wheel Is fixed is q band Of steel, on
which band runs over . small pulley that
drives small circular saw. Set Il on table
and rumove the brake, and Il will start itself
and run with great velocity, driving the saw.

A FEW REASONS WHY TIE
LA.nI.33AlgA3l WATCH
is THE BEST


II is made on the best principle, willie the foreign
watch is generally made no principle at all.
Let US look at the contrast. The foreign watch Is
mostly made by women and boys, by hand While
their labor is cheap, their work is dear Mt any. price,
Such watches are mais without plan, and sold with
out guarantee. rliey irregular in construction,
and quite as irregular in enent. They are design.
ed only to sell and the buyer is the party most thor
oughly sold. Those who have kept .ancres," Gle
pine and swiss levers in rrofessed repair for u
few ysars will appreciate tho truth Of our statement.
THE PLAN OF THE AMERICAN WATCH.
Instead of being made of several hundred little
pieces screwed together, the body Of the American
Watch is formed Of SOLID PLATES No jar inter
fcres with the harmony Of It's working aud no sud
den shock throw its machinery cut Of gear
cession of one part from another is unknown to its
constitution, and in riding any business pusu it
is all held together aa firmly single piece of met
al. 1t is just what all machinery should be
