The fair sex who visit the Pavilion are
particularly interested in the display
made by Gattmann & Wilson, the we'll
known dry-goods house of this city 1t
consists of a large show case, elaborately
decorated with the latest novelties in their
line, such as ostrich tips, rare laces, rib
bons, fans, dress patterns, fancy work
etc. The whole display is arranged in
such manner as to make the various
colorS of the material aid in the makeup
of the elegant picture presented. This
enterprising firm are too well-known to
people accustomed to trading in Sacra-
mento to need any comment but for the
benefit of strangers it might well be said
they are among the foremost dealers in
their line, and their stores will be found
filled with complete stock of the most
fashionable and desirable dry-goods.
In reviewing the exhibits at the Pa
vilion, one of the most important and one
which attracts the attention of all is that
presented by The l.. Elllus Company,
manufacturers of overshirts and under
wear. This display consists of small
factory in itself. Aside from the finished
shirts and goods for the spring stock, can
be seen ten Wheeler dS Wilson sewing
machines, operated by like number of
young women, who are busily engaged
manufacturing the goods, the same as
they may be seen any day at the factory,
which is situated at the corner of Front
and j streets in this city. To a visitor,
the many sewing machines, run by cleo
tricity and operated exclusively by Sac
ramento girls, are an instructive picture
that teaches one moral lesson-patroniZe
home industry. This company gives
employment for many hands, and would
employ many more were it not so hard in
this city to find operators for the ma
chimes. All these young ladies, when
once they understand the handling of the
machines. make good wages, and it is a
most profitable trade for them
This company, while yet young,
has built up for itsef a large outside
business, which has compelled them
from time to time to increase their
facilities until now they have an estab-
lishment the magnitude of which is lit
tie realized by even the best posted resi-
dents of Sacramento. But there is a way
in which the residents of this city can
