Triumphs OF the Mechanic Artisan

The noiseless motion of smooth running
machinery and its miles Of shafting has
an irresistible fascination alike for me-
chanic and student, and thecrowds to-day
fingered long in Machinery hall. The
famous triple expansion Corliss engine,
known in the hall as the "Allis" engine,
stands near the south end of the building
on the long aisle running east and west.
1t furnishes power equal to 5000 horses
and keeps the great and varied mass of
machinery in motion with no apparent
effort Three overhead travellers" "
with electricity for motive power,
move along their elevated tracks in
response to notices by telephone that "a
ponderous piece of mechanism or block Of
wood in some part Of the building needs
'hoist" or carry" A few gangs Of men
are still at work putting up highly pol
ished hand-rails around numerous sec
tiOns. Others are unpacking a tardy ar
rival of exhibits. Managers and messen-

it's eliminating point. No comparison
with previous expositions can be drawn in
the case of this department. because none
other has ever had such space, such a
seating or such magnificent surroundings.
Great as the space is it has proved scarcely
one-tcnth the amount that would have
been necessary to satisfy the demands Of
would be exhibitors. The rush Of applica-
tions has far exceeded that In any other
department and the problem has been TO
discriminate in favor of quality rather
than quantity. The amount Of space
granted to foreign governments was neccs-
sarily so large that the monster floor of
the building has little more than one
fourth of its space allotted to United
States exhibits. Nevertheless il is the
greatest showing in manufactures that
the United States has ever attempted.

THE WONDERFUL CIRCUS.

As advertised, Scribner & Smiths mammoth one-horse circus exhibited in this place Friday, the 5th. At early day break the populace of neighboring towns and rural farm sections began to assem- bic in the village to witness the parade at l2 o'clock. They came from the will derness of Squash Hollow, from the bar ren regions of Puglane, the rocky hills of Jerusalem, even from the fertile plains of Pumpkin Hill in the south, to the mountain fastnesses of Pigtail, just east of Dogtail corners, in the north. So they gathered vast and motley horde. Of course the old folks had to come to let the boy see the elephant. All the same they were right on hand when the band comme need to play o wing to the bad con dition of the roads, the circus was de- layed about three or four hours, so the parade, which was to have been at F o'clock, was necessarily delayed until about 3. At that time the magnificent street pageant which according to the posters was to rival in splendor and size that of the famous Barnum & Bailey's, Iappeared on the street and consisted of a wagon, or chariot, drawn by three pail of weary horses, and occupied by band of about six pieces. In vain did the old man and his boy look for the cages of wild beasts, etc., but they were not in it. After the extensive parade had pass ed through the principal streets it return ed to headquarters across the river Upon crossing the river new difficulty appeared.
