The annual meeting of the Holland
 County Medical Society was held at "The Rockville" April 28. The session was marked as having the largest attendance for many years, 13 of the 16 doctors To- cated in this county being present.

TREFoUssE KID GLOVE.

They are a little higher in price, but the differ ence is more perceptible in the quality, conse- quently the lady who purchases pair of Ire fousse Gloves could not be persuaded to buy substitute. For several years we have had to contend with inferior grades of Kid Gloves that were offered at 25 cents less than our Trefousse Glove, and it consequently took us some time to build up the largest trade on an exclusive quality of kid gloves in this vicinity, but such is the result to-day. Ladies whe have used the Trefousse Kid Glove will use no other.
 Here is the only place to find the Trefousse goods in this city. Yet we do not expect to sell everybody Trefousse Gloves, so we make spec ial efYort, (and judging from our sales we think it is success), that is the i've hook Foster lac ing glove, which we sell for s1.

The general has made re- port to the senate of the results of the ex- perimental free delivery of the mails in small towns. Forty-eight towns in all parts of the country were selected, and in every case except two, where carriers could not be obtained at the salary au- thorized, the service has been highly suc- cessful, and has the appreciation of the people and press of these towns. In nearly every town the increase in postal receipts were equal to the additional ex- pense of free delivery service.

One of the marvels of the recent elec- trical exposition at Frankfort was a six foot electric search light of 10000 candle power. Schuckertt, the Nuremberg elec- trician, astonished Europe in it's construc- tion. Schuckertt is now at work on 8 larger light for the Worlds Fair. It will be seven and one-hah feet, and of at least 25,000 candle. The Frankfort light could be seen plainly at Bingen on the Rhine,' forty-miles away. It is expected that the search light at the worlds fair can be seen, at least sixty miles away. Elec- trical Engineer Sargent is making plans for tower 300 feet high, on which the big light will be. mounted. At height of 100 feet above the ground will be two six-foot search lights, and the three will suffice to illuminate the skies for miles around Jackson park. Brilliant feats are accomplished with these search lights. Sheets of light can be projected with parallel, converging or diverging rays. When the rays are thrown out parallel clearly defined sheet of flames seems to be suspended in the darkness. By changing the reflector the rays are brought to focus at long distance from the central station. These lights, turned on the buildings and alternately shot into the heavens or out across the lake, will produce brilliant electrical effects.
 The scene which the worlds fair expo sition grounds now afford, with most of the buildings nearing completion and the construction being pushed forward by more than 6,OOO workmen, is accounted so interesting and wonderful that from 1000 to 5000 visitors day willingly pay the admission fee of 25 cents to witness it. Before the abolition of the free pass system, the visitors often numbered as high as 15,OOO or 10000. The work of construction was interfered with, so that it was thought best to charge an admis sion and thus diminish the size of the crowd of sightseers and at the same time add to the financial resources of the expo sition, ## As an illustration of the rapidity with which the work of erecting the exposition buildings is being pushed it may be stated that on March 1 sketches were made for a building to serve as permanent accommodations for the construction bureau. the Columbian guards, emergency hospital, central fire alarm service, etc. The contract was let on April 3, and on April 30 the building was finished and occupied. The structure measures 200 by 300 feet, is covered and with staff, and is substantial ly put up.

The huge shaft connected with the mammoth Corliss engine, which is being put into the Willimantic Linen Company's No. mill, broke sudden and unexpected last Saturday morning, causing about $3O, 1000 worth of damage. The large driv- ing wheel, twenty eight feet in diameter and nine feet wide, weighing many tons, went crashing away from. it's massive foundation and completely wrecked the new brick addition for the engine. A number of workmen at work on the en- zine escaped by jumping out of the win dows. The loss will fall upon Messrs. Hewes & Phillips of Newark. N. J., who who were putting in the engine, it not having been accepted by the linen com pany.
