Wenyer. KengIa & Co.

One of the distinctive industries Of the
District, and which has contributed ma
terially to its commercial prosperity, is the
extensive soap mandatory of Messrs.
Weaver, Kengla IL Co., Water street,
Georgetown. This firm was founded as
copartnership in 1881 by Joseph Weaver,
George NJ. Kengla S Bro. and John r.
Kelly. The premises occupied are very
commodious and spacious and the plant OF
this mandatory embraces one OF the most
complete and best-managed establishments
In the country. 1t is equipped with all the
latest improved appliances known to the
trade, including engines and boilers and
employment is found for large force of
experienced hands, where operations are
all under the most competent management.
Only the best grades OF tallow that can
be procured are used, and that is
handled in such thoroughly scientific
manner as to result In the production of
pure laundry soap that has no superior.
The soap OF this establishment will always
be found to meet every requisite demand,
and for excellence Of quality stands to-day
unsurpassed In the country. Mr.. Kelley Is
n pratical manufacturer, having had years
Of experience In this trade, and has given
the subject great deal Of scientific study.
Their business extends all over this coun-
try and Europe. The. members Of the firm
are all young men and OF thorough bust
ness habits, aud are fully conversant with
the wants OF their large trade, and Justly
merit the success which has attended their
well-directed and persevering efforts.

KnoN's Express.

1t Is matter of public interest, and one
for congratulation on the part Of the citi-
zens Of Washington, that they are supplied
with such en- elegant storage house as that
Of Mr.. George w. Knox, located on the
northwest corner Of Second and l} streets
northwest. The premises occupied are very
large, handsome, convenient and imposing
In appearance, fronting los feet on b street
and 1870 feet on Second street, and four
stories high. 1t Is not only handsome
house, but 1t has every convenience fer the
transaction of his large business. The
structure Is surmounted by conspicuous
tower reaching twenty feet above the roof,
which gives fine and finished appearance
to the building. All the latest improve
ments In machinery are to he found In use.
Mr.. Knox manufactures all his wagons,
of which he has large number, and en-
ployment Is given to over 100 workmen.
Telephone connection is had with all parts
OF the city, railroad and steamboat lines.
An elevator of the latest improved patent,
with capacity of four tons, Is
used in the building, which is
maiuly used for storage. The business of
fee is SIS handsome aud complete as can be
found anywhere IN the country, being
paneled in natural wood, which gives it q
novel and pleasing effect. Mr.. Knox is a
self-made man. While in the employ of
the railroad company in 1864 he con-
ceived the idea OF establishing the
baggage and package express bust
ness in this city under the name OF
Excelsior Express, commencing with one
horse and wagon, making calls for baggage
ard packages for delivery TO depots and
different sections Of the city. With energy
and push he has continued the motto, but
changed the name to that OF his own. lie
can rightly be called the father of the gem
eral local express business in the
city, and is now doing a gen
eral carrying business, and re-
ceiying consiguments of property
Of all descriptions for reshipment or for
delivery in this or adjacent cities. Mr.
Knox has the plans completed and arrange
ments consummated for the construction of
new building adjoining the present one Of
$50 feet, running through from Second
street to Adams Express Company's stable,
with depth Of fifty feet and four stories
high. The commercial relations of Mr..
Knox are widespread, his facilities un-
equaled, his connection the best possible
while his wise guidance has ever been note.
worthy and his establishment is lasting
credit to the city and a monument to his
own industry and enterprise.

j. William Lee.

The business and calling of an undertaken
are Of peculiar nature and require special
care and consideration IN the performance
Of these necessary duties. lie should be a
man of tenderness Of spirit and great sa-
gacity ia discerning what is appropriate un-
der varying circumstances. A prominent
house In this line Is that of Mr.. J. William
Lee, No. 332 Pennsylvania avenue north
west. He furnishes everything required
for burial promptly aud in the most sat
isfactory manner, and 80 well are his duties
performed that his services are generally
sought after by bereaved relatives or friends

crate attention. Mr. Lee keeps constantly

kets and collins, corpse prescrvers,

Every requisite for funerals is provided,
and the establishment is as complete aud
extensive as any in this city, hearses, carri-
ages and everything else In connection with
funerals being furnished with promptness
and dispatch. The many facilities and ac-
complishments Of Mr.. Lee are duly appreci-
ated, and his services are specially valued
by the people. Personally he is respected
for his many sterling qualities and has
gained the esteem OF his fellew-citizens for
Ills kindness and courtesy.

sary industries OF tho city. The bust
ness OF tie Transparent Ice Company
was established here IN 1881, occupyin :
a building, Nos 1927 to 1881 Water street,
GEORGETOWN The ice manufactured by

upon which the enterprise and success
has conferred many Advantages, and this

Is Justly entitled by force of an eullght-

Of fairness and integrity, without which

larity OF this new process and reliable
company.

When mlnstrels sang their ladies' praise
In listening courts to kings
What music from the fapturcd strings

And peerless gracel
In these brave days, when knightly love
Fared forth its constancy to prove
II We had lived, how gladly
Had faced the foe and tourney cry
To meet brave death or deathless fame
In her dear namel
But since we are condemned by fate
To walk the earth so sadly late

And in the manner OF the time,
To prove what passion In me thrills,

Edward Cooley,


One Of the distinctive industries OF
Washington aud which has contributed
materially to its commercial prosperity is
Its extensive limeFilns. The most prom
inent industry in this line of trade ia the
establishment Of Edward Cooley, and
known as the Washington Llmelt!ns, cor
ner Of Twenty-seventh and l. streets. This
business was founded In 1874 by Mr.. VIM
II. Cooley, and now carried on by his son,
Edward Cooley. The business embraces
wood, buint lime, cement, plaster aud
hair. The premises are commodious and
well arranged. The capacity of the works
are 400 to 4l5 barrels per day,
and employment is given to large
force OF hands, The works are con-
yeniently located near the canal and river,
by which sources the stone used III the
business are obtained. Tue facilities OF
this house for tiausacting large trade are
not surpassed by any contemporary con-
cern in Washington, and Is enabled to
supply the best at the lowest market
prices. Tlis Is the oldest limekiln in the
District, and the lime produced surpnss ses
all others In the quality Of whitcness yield
ing and working cool. H. Is incumbent on
buyers In the advancement OF their own iu-
terests, that they bear in mind this establish
menl WDen desiring anything In this line,
for this house can confer inducements and
benefits which are proportionate to the un-
usual facilities In It's possession, and dur
ing the period since It's establishment 1t has
annually added to its reputation by faithful
ministrations to Its pntrons, and now Is
prominent factor Of the commercial import
ance Of Washington, commanding the conf
dence and support of widely-extended
trade. The proprietor of this establishment
gives his close personal attention to the
working of his large business, and being
a thoroughly practical man himself is fully
conversant with the wants of his numerous
patrons, and justly merits the success which
has attended his well directed efforts.
