The well-known carriage-maker OF this
city, A. Meister, has a fine exhibition of
carriages at the Pavilion, which receive
the complimentary remarks of all.
1t should not be forgotten when view
/ ing the exhibit of Ingram 81 Bird that
this display is made up entirely from
goods carried in stock by them, in their
store at 6l7 K street. This exhibit was
made for the express purpose of showing
| to visitors some of the goods carried by
| the firm. Lack of space prevented
much larger display.
1t costs but little TO become member

The ladies who visit the Pavilion
should not fail to carefully inspect the ex
hibit made by the Singer, Manufacturing
| Company. In viewing this display they
will not only be interested, but will also
receive some new and important ideas in
relation to the handling of sewing ma
chimes. The fancy work done by the
operators on this machine is perfectly
wonderful.
/ The attention of visitors in the city is
called to the many Improvements that
| have been made and are i'll progress in
Sacramento. Prominent among these is
the enlargement of the carriage reposi-
tory OF Chr. Nielsen. which is situated at
10l3 and 1915 Tenth street. Some eleven
years ago Mr.. Nielsen began the manu-
facture of carriages in this city on small
scale. and since that time, by strict atten
ton to business, he has built up
trade that is second to none
Of its kind in this section.
Owing to this large increase in
! business he found it absolutely necessary
to increase hisquarters. In doing this he
not only added another story to the en-
tire building, but extended it back forty
feet, giving him nearly one-third more
floor room. While making this enlarge
ment, Mr.. Nielsen has also made another
great improvements to his property by
putting in new iron front. which, when
completed, will make it a very attractive
block. 1t is hardly necessary to speak of
the quality Of work turned out from this
carriage factory, it all speaks tor itself,
and it is largely owing TO its excellence
that Mr., Nielsen can attri butte the success

complete in every respect and pre-
pared to build anything from the
most fancy carriage to a wagon.
In connection with the manufacturing
business Mr.. Nielsen is also prepared to
do all kinds of repair work in his line

fine carriages and wagons which the pub

The Placer County exhibit, which is
situated in the north wing of the Payil-
sN1 lo,f 1Trrht h,4y, IL
, of people VINO were surprised at the mag
nitude of the display. The resources of
} this county, as will be seen by those
viewing its products, are almost unlim-
tied. Its fruit, which consists of almost
every conceivable variety, is of the best
quality. Its cereals are fine, and it's veg
etables unexcelled. The minerals shown
are not only numerous, but consist of
many specimens of great value. The
manufactures of the county are also well
represented and make most creditable
showing. This display is under the direct
charge of Z. Il. Beecher and b. A. Giant
valley.
Daniel Best, the well-known and ex-
tensive manufacturer of harvesters and
engines from San Leandro, is in the
front rank again with his exhibit at the
Pavilion. MIR. Best has on exhibition
this year his celebrated traction engine,
which is watched with great interest by
the ranchers. There is but little change
in the one now on exhibition from that
shown here one year ago. Every year
these engines are growing more popular
and being placed to new uses. Mr.. Best
states that at present one of his fifty
horsepower traction engines is being
used in the hauling of logs on Mount
Shasta, and no difficulty is being found
in operating it oD quite steep grades. This
gentleman is also exhibiting a horse
power combined harvester called
1.-THE New Model" 1t is the only single
geared combined harvester on the mar
ket, and is particularly desirable on ac-
count of being a light-running machine
and easily handled. These engines and
harvesters can be seen in operation in the
vacant lots at the corner of Fifteenth and
: NJ streets every day. In addition to the
above Mr.. Best also has something new
in the way OF a gas engine. The inventor
claims that in his engine, by the explo-
sion of gas in the cylinder at a point
varying from other engines, he not only
saves much gas, but obtains greater
motion. This engine was carefully in
spected by many machinists last even
ing, all of whom were pleased with its
mechanism. All these engines and har-
yesters mentioned above were manufact-
ured at the Daniel Best Agricultural
Works at San Leandro.
O. NJ. Downer, hydraulic engineer of
| this city, has on exhibition at the Pavilion
number of Byron Jackson's engines
and pumps which are being shown to an
advantage. The principal feature in this
exhibit is compound automatic engine
which is marvel in the way of economy
and high speed. 1t is specially adapted
to furnishing power for electric lighting
and other purposes that require steady
motion. A noticeable fact about this ma
chine is that it rests upon the floor of the
! hall, and works nicely without fastenings
