balloons bears on its side, lin letters much longer
than a barn-door, that all who gaze
skyward at the the fair may see
the single word ''When" The same
four-lettered word is blazoned in somewhat
smaller letters on the other balloon. The word
is the name of the most enterprising and best
known clothing house in the West; an establish
ment of which not only indianapolis but
all the State is proud The fame of
the When rests upon the substanti al
foundation of the peoples esteem. 1t has pur-
sued the undertaking line of policy of selling
better goods than any other house brought to
this market at lower prices than any 9th er
house could afford to sell. 1t did this during
the first year of its existence among US, and has
continued it year after year, not becoming ne G.
lectful on account of success, but strivin G
the more to retain the great trade
it has developed. The When makes display on
the second floor of the Exposition Building on
one of the bridges, filling large space with an
elegant exhibit of gentlemens furnishings, the
finest goods and best variety ever seen in this
market. There are too many choice things in
this exhibit to admit of description, but the
display of clothing in worsteds. trcots,
ing notice. There is also fine showi ng of chill
dren's goods in kits, overcoats, knee pants etc
The place is deliberately decorated with plants
and ferns and a space is set off at one end as a
handsome parlor, in which ladies visiting the
fair may rest
THE ECLIPSE WIND ENGINES
Are shown near the south western corner of the
fair grounds and have done great service in rails

Messrs Fairbanks & Co., who show these wind
eng mes, have them in eighteen different styles
This make of wind engines can pump in lighter
winds than any of its competitors because it pos
sesses more wind-reeeiving surface. 1t can also
pump in strong wind or gale when required-a
wind in which section wheel mill, operated by
centrifugal regulation would become nopera-
tive, because at a speed Of thirty-five revolu-
lions they will turn themselves out of the
wind while solid wheel can be run with
safety up to fifty revolutions minute, and, by
the regulating device, can be arranged to run at
any desired speed from twenty to fifty revolu
tions The working parts of the Eclipse mill are
of wrought and malleable iron, whereas in other
mills they of cast iron. This method of
manufacture adds to the cost at least one third,
but it doubles the strength and durability of the
mill. No claim for cheapness is made the
first cost of the Eclipse, and no levelheaded

sake of saving the few dollars that provides him

THERE'S NOTHING LIKE LEATHER"
The most unique display of the entire fair was
undoubtedly that of the Chicago Shoe House, on
the second floor of the Exposition building No

such capacity for artistic combinations of form
