The Centennial Committee have COM
menced making their awards. We clip
the following from the New York Ecen-
ing Mail, ard after having seen the dis
play made by Messrs. Devlin & Co., at
the Centennial are not at the all surpris-
ing at the success they met with.
"All visitors to .he United States de.
partment of the Main Building have been
especially attracted by the large and va
ried display of clothing in the exhibition
case of Devlin & Co., of New York. It
certainly seems that this great house has
reached the acme of excellence in the
manufacture of garments for gentlemen
and children, while in the matter of arts
tic styles they have no superiors. Know
ing their prc-eminence in every depart
ment OF their business, it is not a matter
of surprise that two medals and two
awards have been given them for the best
examples of civil and military clothing.
Anything less would have been unjust :
anything more the Judges could not have
DONE

Scarcity of MOneV,

There is no doubt but the present stu
alton of all kinds of business and indus
try is fcarfully depressed, and it be-
hooves every family to look carefully to
their expenses. Winter is coming on
when children are liable to Group, Whoop-
ing Cough, etc, Coughs and Colds will
prevail everywhere, and Consumption
with other Throat and Lung diseases will
carry off many. These diseases should
not be neglected, Doctor Bills are expen-
sve, and we would advise our people to
use BosCHEE's GERMAN SYRUP. 1t never
has failed One bottle at rs cents will
keep your whole family well during the

mencing on Thursday of this week. The
building which has been erected for the
purpose is a fine and costly brick struc-

finest exhibitions ever seen in the West.
The show will last 30 days, and we advise
all our citizens who possibly can to make
an effort to go to Dcs Moines. A person

Taken altogether the Fair was decid-

exhibitions in this vicinity. although it
was not what could have been expected
and what was desired.
We heard many persons say that it was
a pity the two societies in southern Tama
could not have been united last winter,
But what success was met with was duo
very much to the efficient work of Mr.. T..

ton. 1t had been intended to have trott-
ing and sales, &c. on the fourth day of
fair, but as no stock was offered for sale
it was thought by some best to close with
the third day. This caused some disap-
pointment among great many especially
some who understood that all the trotting
was to be done on the fourth day

MANIA FOR FAST RIDING!
How to Come Home from the Centennial!

Almost every man, woman and child
has mania for fast riding, and for the
benefit of flying sight-seckers, we Will
cali attention to the fastest through train
in the United States. Leaving Philadel-
phia by the Pennsylvania Railroad, at
720 any morning, passengers ride over
the line between the Centennial city and
Pittsburgh, 354 miles, in ten hours. This
particular train is composed of parlor
cars. so arranged that the magnificent
scenery OH both sides of the line canno
be overlooked The old, highly cultlva-
ted and rich agricultural districts east OF
Harrisburg are extremely interesting to
the traveller, whilst the mountain ranges.
the Horse Shoe Curve, Kittanning FONT,
the Conemaugh, the Allegrippus and
hundreds of charming varied views, may
be enjoyed during daylight by taking the
Limited Fast Express. By this tram the
sleeping cars are attached at Pittsburgh,
and passengers arrive in Chicago the fol-
lowing morning, many hours in advance
of all other routes and neccssItatlng only
one nights ride No. other railway on
this Continent can offer the inducement
of lightning train from the East. Y.

Clark street, Chicago, will give all In
formation. Particular attention given TO
letters of inquiry.
FIRE-Last Sabbath evening, just as
the audience at the Congregational church
were being dismissed, the large chande-
lier-which the sexton was lowering to
extinguish the lights-fell with loud
crash to the floor, breaking into many
pieces, and carrying the burning kero-
sene in every direction, which readily
communicated to the dry benches and
floor. Fortunately, the congregation had
not gone far, while some had not yet
started, when the alarm of fire arrested
their attention, and in a moments time
crowd of people had gathered at the
scene of the excitement, some thought OF
water, and FASTENED to procure it, but II
only aggravated inc burning keiosoho
Others with more presence of mind, took
some wet blankets and proceeded to
to smother the flames while Mr.. David
Samuels ran to his house near by and go'
some flour, which operated like charm
upon the inflamable fluid, and in an in
credible short time the burning benches
were thrown out, and the fire that bid
fair to be so disastrous, was checked IN
its incipiency. 1t is painful to think
what the result might have been, II the
chandelier had fallen earlier in the even
ing, or even if the fire ficnd," had not
met with such well-directed and vigorous
action at the commencement. The loss
is estimated at about $150.-Iraer CLIP
