THE CENTENNIAL MEDAL
The Truth at Last!
THE
HOWE MACHINE E
Again Triumphant!
Again triumphant!

At the 45th Exhibition of the American
Institute Fair in this city, the Howe Ma.
chine was recommended by the judges
and approved by the unanimous vote Of
the Board of Managers, for the GREAT
GOLD CENTENNIAL MEDAL" under the
following rules:
This Medal tof gold) is to be awarded
only for machine, product, or process,
exhibited this Centennial year, at the 45th
Exhibition of the American Institute of
the city of New York. It can be awarded
only for a machine, product, or process, of
great value, decided Importance, and of
more than usual merit; and then only by
majority of the whole Board of Trustees,
upon the written report of three judges,
whose report shall certify to the above
requirements, and after said report shall
have been approved by a majority of the
whole Board of Managers"
1t will be thus seen that the sHowe"
still leads all competitors-and we chal-
lenge all Sewing Machine Companies in
the land to produce an award of like ex-
cellenee received in this CENTENNIAL
YEAR

LIGHTING THE CAPITOL.
Progress OF the Electric Light.


Preparations for lighting the Capitol build
ing by means of the electric current, under the
appropriation made by the last Congress, have
now arrived at point when a trial has been
had In the presence OF several people, all Of
whom pronounced the now system complete
success.
The Representatives Hall will be the first
large space lighted up and 1t is hoped this may
be done before the present session closes
Estimates are now being prepared for placing
tho electric light upon the dome Of the Capitol.
There is ample available steam power In the
basement to run Dynamo-clectriC machine of
10000 candle power.
This, 1t is claimed, would give sufficient
light to enable person to read fine print in
any street of this city in the darkest night,
aud it will illuminate Georgetown, the Navy
Yard, Alexandria, aud the Potomac for long
distance. The General Government now pays
$4,000 annually for gas used in the public
buildings of this city.
A close calculation arrives at the result that
by the electric system fully $l2O,OOO of that
sum might be saved every year, with better
light and less trouble to attend 1t.
The system for lighting the Capitol, which
| has been adopted by the Government, is that
of Sawyer and Rogers. This was done after u
careful scrutiny aud rigid tests by Cover n.
| meut experts,
Three dynam ,-eectric machines have been
bought under the appropriation, to be used in
| lighting the interior of the Capitol.
| AruOux & Hochhausen, of New York, arc
| the manufacturers of the machines used by
the Government. Thus everything seems to
be working auspiciOusly for our early emanci-
| patton from the grinding cNtortous of the gas
monopoies, and at the same time furnish us
with more convenient, healthy aud economi
| cal light.
