Probably there is moro curiosity |
concerning the prison career of
Jesse pomeroy than any other
convict in the instituti0n. His
atrocities arc known the world
over, and hundreds make the vain
visit to the prison TO get sight at
him. Indeed, scarcely visitor |
appears there but who asks for the |
privilege, and, strange as II may
seem, the most importu1atc and
persistent Of these arc found
among the lady visitors. It's no
uncommon thing Tor thc-warlen
to be importuned for half an
hour at a time by a delegation Of
these philanthropic females, and
finding that their pleadinss are
useless. they go of in rage, prob.
ably declaring that Pomeroy is q
saint and an angel in comparison
with Gcueral Chamberlain.
This singular phenomenon Of a
tieud and murderer Is even more
singular since his incarceration for

A Household Article.

a sewing machine is Of as much necessity
to home as a housekeeper. No sooner does
lady 20 to housekeeping than she asks:
what sewing machine shall | buy" AS
there are many different machines manufac-
tured the question is sometimes q difficult
one to answer A machine that isnow meet
ing with rapid sale, and Is attracting gen.
eral attention throughout the West and, in
fact all over the country, is the White Sew
ing Machine, manufactured at Cleveland,
Ohio, by the White Sewing Machine Com
pany. Since the first sewing machine was
made, thirty years ago, improvements have
been added year by year, almost too many to
enumerate; and the White Sewing Machine
has among its striking advantages some Of
the latest Improvements in the production of
machines. 1t is remarkable as light.run.
ming shuttle sewing machine and for It's ca.
pacity and power. 1t is simply constructed,
and not complicated with cog gears and large
cams. 1t has steel feed on both sides OF the
needle, and its shuttle is comparatively self
threading, made of solid steel and carrying q
large bobbin. 1t also has device by which
bobbins can be filled without running the en-.
tire machine, thereby relieving it from wear
for this purpose, as also the operator of the
necessity OF removing the work OF attach
ments. But an attractive feature Of this ma
chine is the "take-up," by which every box
or bearing can be tghtened around the jour-
nal by means of little set screw, SO that
there is no such thing as wearing out or play
to any part OF the machine. After years use,
in fact, the whole can be readjusted in ten
minutes, and made to work better than ever,
as the bearings have become perfectly
smooth. This principle has been applied to
pianos, in regulating the action; but its use
in sewing machines is OF recent date and very
ingenious in its application. In the White
Machine this is applied in every case where
there is friction and the parts are liable to
wear out. The machines are run at high
speed for some time, and then tested at act.
ual work by an expert before they leave the
shop, so that they can be warranted. The
facilities at the factory are complete, and the
best material and the most skillful talent is
used in the construction of machines. AS the
good qualities Of the White Machine become
known, it Is no wonder that the sales are
largely increasing. Full and complete in-
formation respecting these machines may be
obtained by sending to Samuel Hill, dealer
in all the best and latest improved sewing
machines, needles and attachments for all
machines, oil stoves, darning machines, etc,

The Prevention of a Terrible Dis

No disorders, excepting the most deadly

which fasten upon the Kidneys. Such mala.

are SO liable to assume that phase-competc-

highly effective as means Of imparting tone

well as to the liver, stomach and bowels.
Another beneficial result Of this medicine,

The importation Of Clothing to this city

business of the Central Pacific Railroad. San

foremost in the ranks of our mercantile COM

both continents. These remarks are particu-
lary aprOpos in connection with the twenty
fifth anniversary Of the firm of Colman Bros,
which this year marks in the business history
Of San Francisco. The Messrs. Colman man

Important Reorganization.
GREATLY IMPROVED FACILITIES AT CRosE,
& cos EMPLOYMENT AGENCY

GREATLY IMPROVED FACILITIES AT CRosETT
& co.'s EMPLOYMENT AGENCY.
Employers Of labor, no matter of what
class, cannot be too careful in the selection
OF employment agents, as nearly everything
depends upon their honesty and experience,
whether the help furnished turns out salts
factory. There are several employment offices
in San Francisco but it is universally conceded
that CrOsett ~ Co.'S, at Nos. 623 and 625 Clay
street, has more facilities for giving efficiency
to the business than any other similar estab.
ishment on this coast. To still further meet
the demands Of their patrons, Crosett IL Co.
have just rcorganlzed their business by the
addition Of German gentleman and also a
Scandinavian gentleman, both well known to
their own people rs well as Americans. These
gentlemen will courteously and faithfully at
tend to the servant department OF the agency,
which is now in far better position than
ever to supply promptly, and to the satsfac.
tion OF all parties, coachmen, butlers garden
ers, laborers, farmers, mechanics, private
walters and domestic help.
As before, Mr.. Crosett exercises personal
supervision over all the business of his agen-
cy, and if any impressions exist to the con.
trary, they are entirely erroneous. His large
experience and thorough knowledge Of the
business place him at its head, and that ia the
reason why so many orders are daily received
ana executed by MS popular agency which
makes female servants specially, taking
particular pains to furnish patrons with the
best of scandinavian, German, French and
Irish dOmestics to be found in San Francisco
ltmay be here confidently stated that CrOsett
& Co.'s immense facilities place them above
all competing firms, and that all parties who
at any time require employees of any kind
will lind it greatly to their advantage to pa
tronize this agency which has done so much
for the industrial interests OF the coasts.

Honesty Rewarded.

George and Harry worked in the same
shop; but as the working season was al
most over, and there would be little work
to do during the summer months, their en-
ployer informed them, as they settled up
on Saturday evening, that he could only
give one of them work hereafter. He was
very sorry, he said, but it was the best he
could do. He told them both to come
back Monday morning, and that he would
then decide on the one he wished to
remain.
So the young men returned to their
boarding house good deal cast down !;
for work was scarce; neither knew where
he could obtain situation if he were the
one to leave.
That evening, as they counted over
their weeks wages, Harry said to his
friend:
"Mr. Wilson has paid me quarter of
dollar too much"
$50 he has me, said George, as he
looked at his.
How could he have made the mis-
takel' said Harry.
"Oh ! he was very busy when six
o'clock came; and handling so much
money, he was careless when he came to
pay us our tritie," said George, as he
stuffed his into his pocket. book.
"Well," said Harry" am going to
stop as go to the post-office, and hand it
to him."
"You are wonderful particular about
a quarter" said George. "What does he
care for that trihe2 Why, he would not
come to the door for it if he knew what
you wanted; and am sure you worked
hard enough to earn it,"
But Harry called, and handed his en-
ployer the money, who thanked him for
returning it, and went into the house.
Mr.. Wilson had paid each of them a
quarter more than their wages on purpose
to test their honesty.
So when Monday morning came, he
seemed to have no difficulty in determin-
ing which one he would keep. He chose
Harry, and intrusted the shop to his care
for several months when he was away on
business, and was so well pleased with his
management, that when work commenced
in the fall he gave him the position of
Superintendent Five years afterwards,
Harry was Mr.. Wilson's partner; George
worked in the same shop again, but as u
common laborer.
There is nothing like good character
when you want employment. Some
young men can always get work, no mat
ter how dull the times are; while others
can find nothing to do when hands are
scarce, simply because they cannot be
trusted. Kind Words.

A Coop PUN.-Mrs. Green, a colored
lady, was not allowed to enter the gen.
teel cars of the Central Railroad of New
Jersey, as it was about to move toward
Scranton from Wilkesbarre, but was or
dered to 90 forward to the next or smok-
ing car. Mr.. Green, also colored, pro-
tested but of no avail. He subsequently
brought an action against the Railroad
Company to recover the penalty of $500
affixed by the Pennsylvania statute as a
punishment against any common carrying
company for excluding person from any
of its cars on account of his or her color.
Green proved his case in the Court below,
and recovered accordingly. The Railway
Company appealed to the Supreme Court,
