The Singer Machine pIsplav.


In the march of time perhaps nothing has
made greater strides than the sewing
machine. Noticeable among the many at
fractions at the fair is the exaibit of the far
famed Singer Manufacturing Company.
The hum of the Singer is perhaps tie best
known Of all the machines now upon the

Their. exhibit at the fair is unique and in
terestng, and partially represents the Won
derful work which their machines do.
The enterprise and go-aheadativenes, of
this company may be understood as they
have machinery privilege that occupies
more than forty feet, situate in the most
prominent space OF the Pavilion.
This enterprtaing company makes dis
play which is not equaled by anything that
has been exhibited upon this coast or the
continent.
They have about forty machines in oper-
alton, showing the different and artistic
classes Of work which their machines can
DO.
This progressive company are n9t afraid
chine can acc0mnlish au-s as an evidence of
this fact thew have fed up three rooms, in
addition to the &c where the lady opera
tiYes are at VIZ:
room s1e beauty of which stands side by
sile with that OF the haudsomest room in
San Francisco. The pictures, the draperies,
the curtaps. and. in word, everything
contained in this artistic apartment, has
been conceived and worked on the Singer
machine.
This company also have choice and
modern bedroom fitted up in the choicest OF
style
The Kensington work and moding cloth
with which these rooms are draped cannot
be excelled. The curtains and the banners,
all worked, by the way. on the Singer. are
marvels of needlework.
Lovers of art and modern improvement
should not fail to pay visit to the exhibit
displayed by this company.
The Singer beyond question leads the
world.
1t has become household word.

Swept Through Southern
Spain.
Many People We're Drowned in Their

low for Time.

MADRID, Sept 18.--News, slowly com-
ing in from the south of Spain, reports
the damage by reason of the extraordin-
airy floods in that section as being gen1
eral. The loss to property is something
enormous, and everywhere railroad
trains have been derailed, and the roads
blocked. The meagre "details thus fan
received from the province Of Toledo
give a narrowing account of the extent
and phenomena Of
The Overwhelming Catastrophe
which has befallen the province. So
sudden was the breaking forth of the
waters that in numberless instances the
unfortunate people were drowned before
they could leave their beds. Strong
bodies of laborers, assisted by troops are
working day and night to recover the
bodies of those drowned and crushed to
death, but up to the present time only
400 of the bodies of the missing thou
sands have been secured. The vintage
and the corn crop of the distressed dis.
tricts have been totally destroyed &C
that poverty and hunger must follow
in the wake of this frightful visitation.

A Train on the New York Central Rum
A36 Miles in 42G Minutes.

A Train on the New York Central Runs
A36 Miles in 4aG Minutes.
BUFFALO, Sept. 16.-A wonderful feat
OF railrcading has been accomplished by
the New York Central road-a feat that
eclipses everything else ever accom-
plished m the line of rapid travelling.
The record for long distance running
was not only broken, but left way out
of sight. 1t has been demonstrated that
train can not only make sixty miles an
hour, but can keep it up for 44O miles.
The train that arrived at East Buffalo
at 2:50 p. m. left the Grand Central de-
pot, New York, at 1880 a. m. 1t made
the run, including three stops, in 440
minutes, the distance being 4361 miles.
The stops were made at Albany, SYRIA
cuse and Fairport-at the two former
places to change engines, and at Fair
port to take water and to cool hot
journal on tie engine. The Syracuse
and Albany stops were three and half
minutes each and the Fairport stop seven
minutes. Deducting from the time thus
lost, the actual running time was 426
minutes. The train consisted of three
heavy passenger ears. The fastest mile
was made in forty eight seconds. The
best previous long distance run on record
was made by the Scotch mail. 1t was
55.4 miles an hour for 500 miles three
year ago.

Trainmen Are Not in Harmony.

GALEsBURG, nls., Sept. 16.-There is
trouble brewing in the ranks of the
Brotherhood of Railway Trainmen.
Some months ago Grand Master Wilkin-
inson deposed the board of grand trust
ees selected by the convention and ap-
pointed another set of officers in their
place. This action caused break in
the organization and the rupture has
been widening since. The trouble, it is
stated, is due to jealousy among mem
bers of the order and differences as to
the manner of conducting the business
OF the order. Charges and counter
charges are being made on both sides.

Merely Pointer for Farmers.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 1G.--It is said at
the headquarters of the Farmers ALI
ance Press Bureau of Information in
this city that the sircular described in
the dispatch from st. Paul as calling on
farmers in the great West to halt in
shipping their wheat, simply conveys
to them information relative to the con-
dition of the wheat crop of the world,
which. the officers of the bureau say, is
such as to result in an increase of prices
IN the American product. The circular
referred to is not an official document
of the Alliance, but merely letter of
information intended not only for the
benefit of the members of the Alliance.
but of farmers everywhere.
