Interesting Things Contained in

Surprises In Store for Tillers of the Soil

Most Valuable Exhibits at
jackson Park.
Especial Worlds Fair Letter. !

lopccfai WorldS FAR Letter
There are several varieties of surprises
in store for the rural visitor to the Ag-
ricultural department of the world S
fair. And there is also much disap-
pointment laid up in store for the city
bred visitor to Jackson park who fails
to examine the contents of Chief
Buchanan's big building under the
mistaken impression that the agricul-
tural display is confined to the prod
ucts of the farm and farm machinery
The display as a whole is the most
comprehensive and elaborate as to de-
tail ever gathered together under the
general classification of agricultural
exhibits. Every habitable country on
the face of the globe has contributed
to the display, and every known meth
cd of agricultural handicraft amply
displayed. Aside from the displays of
implements and the collection of seeds,
which can be seen on a smaller scale at
any country fair, the science of agricul-
ture and the results of the known
rules of that science are demonstrated
by the most remarkable collection of
exhibits ever placed for public inspec-
tion.
The style of architecture of the Ag-
ricultural building is classic renals-
sance, and it is situated near the shore
of Lake Michigan and is almost sur
rounded by lagoons that lead into the
park from the lake. The building is
500xs00 feet in dimensions, and has a
floor area of 10 acres. On either side
of the main entrance are mammoth
Corinthian pillars, so feet high and
feet in diameter. This main entrance
leads through an opening IS feet wide
to a vestibule from which entrance is
had to the rotunda, 100 feet in dame
ter. The rotunda is surmounted by a
glass dome 1870 feet high All through
the main vestibule, and grouped about |
all the grand entrances, statuary has
been placed, illustrative of the agricul-
tural industry.
The interior of the big building is a |
city of pavilions, pagodas and kiosks. /
Foreign governments, states of the J
union and private exhibitors have

cultural industry is recognized and is
demonstrated. As an instance, the
production Of sugar from sorghum and
the sugar beet is attracting great in
terest. particularly in the west. The
demonstration at Jackson park as to
what can be done with an acre of
ground devoted to this form of sugar
production must attract attention TO
localities adapted to this industry and
be the means of building factories, and
thus contribute largely to the national
wealth and to our commercial indie
pendence.
One of the most novel and instructive
exhibits is that of the association of
American agricultural colleges and
experiment stations, occupying 5000
square feet of space in the southwest
corner of the main floor. 1t repre-
sents the entire work of model agri-
cultural experiment station. covering
the whole field of experiment and re-
search in crops. botany, horticulture,
entomology, feeding stuffs, animal nu-
triton. dairy solids. milk testing and
veterinary science, including an elabo-
rate botanical. biological and chem
zeal laboratory. This exhibit will
afford a vast amount of information
which viii prove of incalculable bene-
fit to thousands. The crops best
adapted to certain localities and the
reasons therefor. the most improved
methods of cultivation, how the best
results may be secured-these are the
lessons taught by this exhibit.
1t was the purpose of Chief Buchanan
TO exhibit TO the world the energy and
culture of our agricultural population,
together with the amending variety
and untold wealth of our natural re-
sources. and the visitor to the agricul-
tural exhibit viii at once conclude that
the effort was not made in vain.

Labor Day,

In Topeka, Labor day was in every
sense holiday, and although the street
demonstrations were not Rs large as last
year, they were by no means a small
affair. A long procession composed Of
the trades unionp, CITY FIRE and street de-
psrtments, farmers, and business firms
displays marched on Kansas avenue in
view Of large crowd Of spectators which
lined both sides Of the street. In front
Of Trades Assembly hall was q reviewing
stand occupied by state, city and county
officers. The afternoon was devoted to
prize contests and other Rmusements at
the fair grounds and Garfield park. The
fact Of there being 80 many unemployed
people in the city seemed to have been
the only thing to put check on the full
enjoyment Of the day.
The Fourth district F. A. &I.U U. meet
ing was well attended, and was very in
teresting. The program previously
published was carried out. the evening
meeting being held in Metropolitan hall.

F. & N. O. League Picnic.

Farmers, their wives, their sons, and
their daughters gathered in beautiful
grove six miles south Of Plymouth, Ind,
Saturday, August 19, to celebrate the
first picnic Of the Farmers and Manu-
facturers' Commercial League. There
were over 1900 Of them, which is sufi-
Gent evidence Of their zeal and intent
upon having a good time; in fact, the
woods we're full Of them, and their pur-
pose was no idle one. A program was
arranged by q committee, OF which Mr..
@. M. Slater was chairman, consisting Of
both instrumental and vocal music, and
speech making. To speak Of the dinner
mildly would not do the occasion justice.
Baskets were hesped up back Of the
speakers stand well laden with food for
the multitude, and when the spread was
made, the seeming principal enjoyment
began. The principal speaker from
distance was W. 7. Mills, Of Chicago,
who gave two rousing addresses upon
"Lsbor and Capital and "Co, operation" I"
Mr.. Mills, by facts and figures, and
forcible illustration, justified the claims
Of the Fsrmers' and Manufacturers
Commercial League as business organ
izstion, and we'll suited 10 the needs Of
the present hour as cooperative and
helpful agency for the farmers. Mr.. J.
G. LeMssters, the manager, and M. A.
Alden, the treasurer Of the league were
present, and, by personal contact,
reached great many Of the farmers. All
seemed enthusiastic in the cause re-
Gently undertaken, and the result was
well-attended meeting in the evening in
quiring into the modes and purposes OF
the league. The picnic proved such q
great success that it was decided to
make it an annual affair, and it il
thought the next annual picnic of the
league will be held there in June, 1894,
Our Chicago manager was present, and
reports he was much pleased with the
interest manifested on the part of the
farmers, and states q general good feel
ing prevailed with satisfactory results to
the league.

except crank shaft and piston) are en-
cased in an iron housing, perfectly dust
and grit prof; and run constantly in oil,
thereby insuring complete fabrication.
The crank shafts are made of steel
and finished to gusge Bearings are ex-
csptionally large and we'll proportionsd.
A very important feature in this engine
is that Of circulating water entirely
around the valve seats and cylinder
thereby increasing the life Of the engine
wonderfully.
In the "Weber" the gasoline is used in
it's natural state, with no intermediate
gas making machinery or appliances
The gasoline ID kept in a galvanized iron
tank, which is usually placed outside
Of building, and connection made direct
from the tank to the cylinder Of the en-
CINE by q small iron pipe; thus you will
see that in the weber" the gasoline is
closely prisoned between solid iron walls
from the time it is put in the tank until
1t is exhausted into space through the
escape pipe from the cylinder whore the
gasoline has been consumed. Should
the engine accidentally become stopped
and all the valves left open, not q parti-
Gle Of gasoline would escape. The con-
sumption OF gasoline is under >rtect
control Of the governor, which h .

called for by the load on the engine.
In the Webr gasoline engine no dan
gerous apparatus is used in purporting
to csrbonize the air or vsporize the gas
oline, and which, under certain condi-
tions, is known to fill with dangerous
mixtures and frequently explode. Case
The advocate and Topeka tribune., 1893-09-06

line only becomes dangerous commod-
ity when mixed with proportion OF air.
This can only occur in the "Weber" in
side Of the heavy iron cylinder OF the en-
gine. Absolute safety Of the "Weber" is
secured by excluding all air from CON
tact with the gasoline until it is ad-
mitted TO the engine cylinder in fluid
form, where it suddenly commingles
with large volume Of air and is ignited.
Safety is also secured by providing
against any possible leaks in the pipes
between the engine and tank. The tank
is generally placed outside the building,
at amy reasonable distance away from
them, and when filled no fire or light
need, Of course, be near.
Another feature Of the ''Weber" is that
changes in the temperature do not affect
its running, a. no so-called vaporizers,
Carbonizers, carduTetters or gas machines
are used. Constant regulating OF the
gasoline and air is dispensed with, nor
is there any water or gasoline remaining
in the tank unfit for use.
The "Wsber" IS claimed to be the only
engine in which the point Of ignition 10
altered while tee engine is in operation,
thereby effeCting great saving. This fea-
ture is specially protected by letters pat
emit.

other writers. Here are Mr.. Bsird's ideas
referred to above:

"The air is thick with schemes and

"Let congress at once demonetize

A well known real estate man. doing
business on Market street, and living
on the South Side, felt so good last
night by reason OF the cooler weather
that he approached well known South
Side merchant, last evening, saying he
would like TO run foot race. The
merchant seemed to feel that way, too,
for he said he you'd like to run him
from Thirty-ninth street to Benwood.
AS they talked, each seemed to get
more In earnest and finally box Of fine
cigars was wagered by the real estate
man. So it has been arranged that they
will run one of these nights, long after
dark. When the race is contested 1t
will be an interesting one.

NOTABLE NUP1IALS
CELEBRATED YESTERDAY IN THIS CITY AND
IN PITTSBURG.
Tho Brilliant Hess-Lang Wedding at st. Jossphs
Cathsdr.l-Marriags Of Mr. Geo. House and
Belle Of The Smoky City.

Yesterday at st. Joseph's Cathedral
was added another Of the many beauti-
ful weddings that have occurred within
its walls. 1t was the unity in marriage
of Mr.. Henry II. Hess and Miss Louie
E. Lang. The event took place shortly
before noon, and in its details was one
of the most brilliant OF the season.
The church was well filed with rela-
tives and friends of the principals. The
ushers were DR.. o. l.. Burdats, Edward
Stifel, Oswald Schrieber, Herman Sea-
bright, Charles Bowers, Frank Klieves,
Fred Behrens, Milton Mabis, George
Yahn and Herman Behler. Of New York.
Prof. Hermann Shockey officiated at
the organ, and about fifteen minutes
before twelve the notes OF wedding
march from Mendelssohn were rendered
and with this the bridal party entered
the church.
The ushers came first in pairs and
were followed to the altar by the maids
OF honor, Misses Mary Stifel and An.
ME Wingerter. The bride, leaning on
arm of her brother, Mr.. Max
Lang, were last. The groom
and best man, Mr.. George
Truschell came from the sanctuary at
the rear of the altar and Joined the
party in front of the alta- railing. The
ritualistic ceremony OF the Catholic
church was brief and all the more i'm
pressiye. Rev. Father McElligott, Of
Grafton, spoke the words of marriage
and the bride was given away by her
brother.
The bride looked especially charming
in a white costume Of crepe de chine
with veil and orange blossoms. Miss
Wingerter was attired In china silk and
Miss Stifel a white benRaline costume.
The groom and ushers were all dressed
In neat fitting getaways with white ties
and pearl colored gloves.
After the ceremony the party was
driven to the house OF Mrs. Hess moth
err, Mrs. Margaret Lang, at No. 1925
Wood street, where q delicious wedding
dinner was spread. This was enjoyed
by the bridal party, members OF the
family and few ultimate friends.
Mr.. and Mrs. Hess left at 2:30 o'clock
In the afternoon over the G. l.. a. w.
railroad for Chicago and other western
points. They will te back from their
tour In about five weeks
and will start housekeeping on
North Main street. The groom Is a
member OF the clothing firm OF c. Hess
81 Son of Market street, and popular
among his friends and acquaintances.
The lady whom he welded is daughter
OF Mrs. Margaret Lang Of Wood street,
and is accomplished and well esteemed
by her large number Of friends. Mr.
and Mrs. Hess received large and ele-
CANT lot of presents, the enumeration OF
which would be well nigh impossible.
