Mr.. YGgeli's establishment is complete

oRGILL BROS. & co., AND wBA THEY Elk
HIBIr
The house of Orgill, Dennison q Co. is
one of the oldest in the city, n known
wherever the word Memphis Is familiar
izsd by use. Its fame 10 hereditary, trans
mitted from an llustrious line of NOR
chants whose good fortune was as change
less as their character was unbl6mished.
The members of the firm have eve led
the way in each great task of public be.
n~eieence, and their example has not only
proved Invaluable to those seeking high
positions In mercantile life, but they have
shown that a generous public spirit ever
chRracterizes the conduct of every mer-
chant. In fact, Messrs. Orgill, Dennison
& Co. are successful merchants, and IL Is
true that while we have many trades
people," we have not more than ten
thousand " merchants." OF course
such a house would promote, by
every possible means, the SUCCESS
OF a Memphis mechanical and in
dustrial exhibition. II therefore placed
on exhibition many curious and useful
articles and machines. In fact, Whatever
is approved by these old and trustworthy
mon dealers is entitled to a pssmium.
They exhibited one OF behring's horse en-
gine.s made especially for Clubhouse I'M
ming gear. The engines are OF varied
sizes for threshing, grinding, ginning,
pumping and for running country jobbing
shops and cash sawmills. This horse en-
CINE is especially adapted to ginhouse
running gear, in which, mules walking
quietly at their natural gait, about IL
miles per hour, will transmit = full and

chine is an entirely new invention and
will soon drive the old ''cog'' and "bsnd
wheelp and lever from beneath every
gin house in the south. The awkwardest,
clumsiest, lmOst barbarous machinery
ever used and that most liable to get out
of repair is the ordinary mechanism used
under the ginhouse on southern planta-
lions. behring's horse engine transforms
all this and makes 1t simple, light and
ev~er-enduring. Il has been tested thor
ouRhIy and under circumstances that rem
der the supreme value of this horsepower
u~nquestionable. behring's Clubhouse cot
ton press has been in common use on
many farms in the vicinity of this city for
four wears past. 10 is simply an ingenious
combination of those old servants of civil
ization, the screw and block and tackle.
Instead of being pushed down by a screw
It is pulled down by ropes and pulleys. A
glance at this press makes one confess its
excellence. The inventor used 10 ship II
without orders to good planters for adop'
ton or rejection. We have sublime faith
In the supreme excellence of the ma
chine. It was from tbeirst a pronounced
success, and is now most popular every
where for chespness, simplicity, rapidity
of work and durability. It occupies but
little space and is readily covered by the
ginhouse.
OUTLETS STEEL Rus COTTON GIN
was patented in 1853, and is manufactured
in Connecticut and st Amite City, Loui-
siana. It has been improved in many re-
speets since 1t first went into general use,
and is now universally admitted to be a
perfect machine. The durability and gen.
ersl working of the machine is unques-
toned and especially is it valuable for
the reason that cotton ginned by this ma
chine is uniniured in its length of fiber.
Many planters assert that a gain In the
value Of marketable cotton of from n to
two per cent is made by using Outlets
gin. The best gin makes the best sample,
and therefore Outlets has taken the first
premiums at countless fairs. We have
seen letters from cotton growers who say
that this gin adds from one to " cents
per pound to the value of cotton. If far
mers would know more of its peculiar
value they should call at Orgill Bros. &
Co.'s, corner of Monroe n Front streets,
or at the Guliet Ginning and Manufacture
ing compsny's establishment at l02 and
104 Cause street.
oAYcR's PATENT COMBINATION SPRING
POWER" AS APPLIED 10 SEWING
MACHINES.
1t is one of the greatest labor-saving
inventions of the ages; will save and pro-
long life in thousands Of families. It is
as almost perpetual motion as the clock
or watch, and will make f~gOm,dvesto fifty
Thousand stitches st one winding. The
power on exhibition at the tair yesterday
performed to the entire satisfaction of the
hundreds, yes thousands, of visitors who
were delighted with the manner in which
the machine worked, It being under bet
ter control than if worked by foot power,
and the stopping IA starting being oom-
pletely at the will of the operator. The
most delicate lady can use the sewing ma
chine by the aid OF this invention without
the least fatigue n accomplish moro
work in Q given time than the strongest
man. Mr.. JIM. CaYoe deserves high credit
for his long and persistent efforts in
bringing this motive power to perfection
and to the relief of the thousands.who
will avail themselves of its use.
The Wilson Shuttle sewing machine
driven by this power was placed at the
disposal of the inventorEseversl months
ago to experiment on, and the result was
rs shown yesterday. The woman that
uses one of Cayce's dddendn to a sewing
machine will never more suffer from use
ing the "tresdla." Any required power
can be exerted by the spiral springs. The
force of one or half q dozen may be ap-
piled at will and as the thickness Of cloth
or leather demands. The simplicity Of
the sprocess of :creating and applying
the spring force gives Mr.. Cayce an ok
allied place among inventors and me-
chanics. His fame has already gone
abroad everywhere and the extent to
which his peculiar mode of applying the
elastic force of steel may be
used has not been defined.
It is as applicable to great as to small
wheels and may be used In the propulsion
of heavy machinery even of street cars.
He ia q worthy son of Tennessee, which
should honor mechanical genius.
o AND HIS TEMPLE.
Very oreditable to Memphis are the de-
signs for a Masonic Temple, now on exhi-
hition at the fair. Looking at them YES
terday we were not surprised that the
committee awarded them the blue ribbon
and gold medal, nor that General Beau
regard, a critical judge, from taste and
experience, as well as by profession,
should commend them as worthy of all
praise. Without d-isparsgement of any
existing designs, 1t may be said of them
that they could not well be surpassed.
From base to tuPret, from tower
to foundation stone, there is unity
of design and perfect harmony. The
Gothic, the most majestic Of all
the orders of architecture, Is here
presented In perfection and blending with
It we find The various symbols ofthe order
