THE AMERICAN CENTENNIAL, 1875.
uh..,.- a v;I,on v;,t.r;on.

Again the Wheeler & Wilson sewing
machines triumph over the world. The Cen.
tepnial commission have officially announced
the awards and decreed for the new Wheeler
& Wilson machiue two diplomas of honor and
two medals of merit. This is q double vic
tory, and the highest award which it was In
the power of the Centennial authorities to
bestow. No other sewing machine received
such a recognition. More than thirty of the
best producers of machines In this and other
countries entered for competition, and at
Philadelphia, in 1876, as at Vienna, in 1873,
and at Paris, in 1867, Wheeler & Wilson lead
the list. After a careful, rigorous and ex-
haustive examination the judges unanimously
decided that the superior excellence of these
machines deserved more than one medal or
diploma, and consequently they recommended
two of each. The Centennial commission
unanimously ratified the action of the judges,
ard tie public will indorse the decision of
these ablest of mechanical experts. A claim
of equally distinguished honor for any other
sewing machine is only an attempt to hood
wink the people. Read the following, which
stamps the 'New Wheeler g. Wilson" as the
standard sewing machine of the world:
tFrom the official report.l
AWARDS TO WHEELER AND WILSON.
1. A medal and diploma for the "New
Wheeler & Wilson sewing machine" for the
following reasons:
"a lock stitch sewing machine unsurpassed
in the fine workmanship of its parts, great
originality, great adaptability to different
kinds of work, both in cloth and leather,
beauty of stitch, ease and rapidity of motion,
and completeness of display"
2. A medal and diploma for the "New
Wheeler & Wilson sewing machine" for
leather, for superior quality of work in
leather stitching"

IndisputabIe.

The greatest remedy of modern times, for
the immediate alienation of pain aud positive
quick cure, is without doubt, Benson's capcine
porous plasters. The public appreciates arti-
cles of true merit. Thousands of physi-
clans and druggists speak in glowing terms of
their great curative properties, who know
them TO be superior to any other known medicine,
and who unhesitatingly recommend them from
honest motives. They cure chronic and local
diseases which other porous plasters simply re-
lieve. Rheumatism, neuralgia, severe and
continuous aches and pains, pleurisy, lumbago,
sciatics, and all diseases in which porous
plasters have been valued, are by Reuson's
capcine porous plaster instantly relieved and
quickly cured. Their reputation is without a
parallel in the history of true medicine; their
action is more powerful than electricity, and
yet they are purely vegetable and contain no
mineral or metallic poisous Try them and
you will not be deceived. Price 25 cents.

A Runaway Couple Checkmated.

There was q lively time at the Baltimore
and Ohio depot last Saturday morning, in
which an angry parent, a lover and his sweet
heart were the attractive trio. 1t seems that
the second named, James Fl. Mannox, of
Sussex county, Md, had been paying atten-
tions 10 the young lady, Miss Nellie C.
Dashiels, of Wicomoco county, Nd, against
the wishes of Ebcn R. Dash;els, ESQ.,, the
father. Last Thursday they thought that
they saw an opportunity to outwit the father
and escape his vigilance by leaving home
under the pretence Of going to the Centennial
with company Of young people. After the
party had started they found the couple not
with them, and informed him by telegraph of
the fact Ascertaining that they were in Bal
timore he proceeded to that city in search of
them, but failed 10 discover their whereabouts
until Saturday morning, when, being at the
depot, he noticed them board train bound
for this place, and followed after. Arriving
at the depot here he made known his presence,
which so astonished the daughter that she
tainted. The lover swore in bis rage, but the
father was firm in his determination to permit
no clandestine doings, and asserted that the
daughter must marry openly and legitimately,
and keep his sand her name above reproach.
Despite the pleadings to the contrary, he took
her back with him on the next Baltimore
train, and intends to keep her home until age
places her beyond his control. The lover did
net 90 with them, but will probably be seen
in the vicinity Of the lady's residence ere
MANY days expire

Other Discomforts from Catarrh.

In many cases the nose Is stopped up, some
times on one side, sometimes on the other,
and often on both, giving rise to disagreeable
"stuffy" sensation in the head, accompanied
by occasional violent and prolonged paroxysms
of sneezing. Again, distressing feeling of
fullness or compression is experienced above
and between the eyes, or pain manifests itself
in the face, forehead or temples, or on the top
or back of the head, sometimes of SO severe a
character that 1t is mistaken for neuralgia.
The sense of smell is generally blunted or en-
tirely lost, and taste may become similarly
affected.

Runaway and Accident.

About 1890 o'clock yesterday morning,
while Mrs. J. F. Sharpe was driving in buggy
across the Navy-yard bridge to the city, her
horse became frightened and ran away, throw
ing her out on the side of the bridge and
bresking her right leg. She was carried to
the house of Mrs. Hutchinson, near the bridge,
and Officer 0ffutt summoned DR.. E. A. Adams,
who rendered surgical aid. Her husband was
notified of the accident by the police. After
the horse was secured he was found to be un-
injured, but the buggy was total wreck.

Congregational Church.

The Choral Quartette Jubilee Singers (col-
ored artists) made their appearance quite un-
expectedly last evening, and led off in the
musical portion of the services at the Congre-
gational church, corner of Tenth and G streets
northwest, much to the qualification of the
large and intelligent congregation which as
sembles in that temple of worship from time
to time. Much has been said of the musical
composition of this troupe during their recent
tour in the South. They have been greeted
everywhere with good houses, one of the very
best evidences OF true merit in this department
of social entertainment, and the papers of
Richmond Va, Danville and other cities speak

A large congregation assembled within the
walls of old Christ church, Navy Yard, yester-

discourse BY the rector, the Rev. Charles D.
Andrews, who preached from Isaiah xxyi:16,
"Lora, in trouble have they visited thee; they
poured out a prayer when thy Christening was
upon them" The sermon was a charity one, in
aid of the yellow fever sufferers Of Savannah.
At its close handsome collection was taken
up, the amount of which will be sent to the

about SIS. The dark mystery surrounding the
theft has been cleared away, and on Saturday
Officer Mitchell arrested two women charged
with the theft. One of them is q cook in the
same house, named Mary Ann Selvey. The
other is Belle Tyler, the cooks niece. When
the robbery was discovered 1t was found that a
pane of glass had been cut from one of the
lower windows. The clothing was traced to
Bellies home, where 1t was found. This, with

THE CHURCHES YESTERDAY.
Fpundrx II. z. Church.

Rev. John H. Dashiell, D. D., preached in
this church yesterday morning, having ex-
charged pulpits with Rev. B. Peyton Brown.
Mr.. Dashiell selected for his text the Sth
verse of the 10th chapter of Romans: "But
what saith III The word is nigh thee even in
thy mouth and in thy heart, that is the word
Of faith which we preach" The theme Of the
discourse was the "Spiritual and the Eter-
nsl," and was fine exhibition of the doc
. trine of the text, abounding in original
thoughts and close reasoning, couched in
beautiful imagery, and language chaste and
pure as the Saxon can be uttered.
In the evening President McCauley, of Dick
iDson College, preached to large congrega-
ton, taking for his text the 18th chapter of
Paul's epistle to the Corinthians, 18th verse:
"For now we see through q glass darkly, but
then face to face; now know In part; but
then shall know even as also l am known"
His sermon was a glowing delineation of the
future glories of heaven, and an earnest ex-
bortation to live and walk by faith, so that
when we reach the eternal glory, the light of
the glory of God shall stream back upon the
way we came, and show that all his provi-
Dental dealings were for our good, and there
we shall live forever in the glorious develop
rents of the love of Christ, &C. IA. a=sa
