BENSON j. LOSING, LII D., THE HISTORIAN.
I have been acquainted with the high
character of Johnson's Universal Cyclope-
dia for several years, but, having in use the
latest editions of Chambers and Appleton's s.
l have refrained from exchanging the latter
for it until recently. Its superiority to any
other work of the kind with which am
acquainted is conspicuously manifest after
brief examination. | am amazed at its
omprehensiveness and completeness. 1t
is an admirable epitome of the knowledge
of all past ages until now, and L can heartily
endorse the words of the faculty of Yale
College: 1t is practically a geographical
gazetteer, a biographical dictionary, med
ical nd legal manual The names of its
editor in-cbief president Adams of the Uni
versity of wisconsin, and his able assist
ants are a sufficient guarantee of its excel
lence. That guarantee is strengthened by
the assumption OF all the principal articles
among the best writer's of the country in
their respective brar ches OF learning-of
the accuracy of their work by having their
names printed in full at the end of their
productions. The maps-all brought down
in their constructor to the present time
and the other illustrations, especially Of
scientific subje ects, greatly enhance he in,
trinsic value of the work. l cannot but re-
gard Johnsons Universal Cycopedia as far
more valuable as a wise instructor for a
family, or for persons in any pursuit, than
any average library of thousands of vol
umes. have exchanged my Appleton's (last
edition) in part payment for Johnson's"

If one would have at hand the readiest
and best means Of acquiring accurate and
ample general information, let him buy
the new edition of Johnson's Universal
Cyclopedia. The work has been completely
revised and brought down to date an is
worthy of place in every household.

dred feet from the ground rises the
great wheel which English engineers
have been at work upon for nearly two
years, and which is now in daily opera
zion. 1t is in the exhibition grounds at
Earl's Court, where it forms the most
striking feature of the Empire OF India
exhibitions.
This wheel is 36 feet higher than the
Ferris wheel at the Worlds Fair, after
which it was modelled. 1t is built to
carry 1000 passengers, and it is ex-
pected to earn a lot of money this gum
mer. There are 40 carriages suspended
around the edge of this immense steel.
and iron fabric. Thirty of these are
ordinary cars and five others r for
smokers.
The other five cars are used by first
class passengers, who objectto riding
with the motley crowd and are willing
to pay s pence OF a shilling for the
privilege of sitting on cushioned seats.
The axle of the wheel weighs'5 So tons,
and is 40 feet in length, requiring deli
cate handling to drop it into its place,
$50 feet above the ground.
The great towers on either side of
the wheel are to be used for recreation
purposes. A ballroom is on the top of
each tower. and there are three restau-
rants, built one above the other. where
visitors may eat and drink and watch
the wheel go round. A magnificent
view of London and its envirops may
be obtained from the top of the wheel.

"GEN. BUSHNELL. :"
HOW HE GOT HIS MILLIONS
HOW HE WON HIS
TITLE.
WHY He Got the Nomination.

The Republicans are making great
boast of their millionaire candidate
"the typical manufacturer of the times
the representative Of the prosperou:
class of our country"
Lets see about this. Bushnell & Co.
were and are the manufacturers Of
agricultural machines.
These machines, Reapers and
Mowers are good: we'll made, servic-
able machines.
So ably is the establishment man
aged that Bushnell & Co. can make
machines with American labor and
sell them in the markets of the world
in successful competition with the like
machines made by ''pauper labor" in
England and an the Continent.
=; Bushnell d Co. have taken the
trade from English manufacturers
in the markets of Austria, Russia and
South America. And in this success
of American mechanics we are proud.
Bushnell & Co., to sell in these
foreign markets, competing with Eng
land, must sell, say at $4,000 a
machine, price at which they can be
proftably sold when made by the
.pauper labor of Europe.
He and his John Bull competitor,
in this business, are making money
and are prospering,
But Bushnell & co are in the
Ohio market also. The largest rob
cry known, by courtesy as Protective
Tarin, STEPS to his help. Instead of
selling to the Ohio farmer for $4,000
as he does to the Planter of Brazil, he
charges $4,000. The additional
fifty dollars Is the Protection the
Mckinley Tariff gives him, and from
this tribute levied ol the Ohio farmer
he pies mp his millions.
He IS millionaire, not by any special
economy, i dustry enterprise, but by
reason OF special law that gives him
and Others of his class especial prvi

these millions thus obtained,he goes III

Foraker makes him General on

did the work for Straitsville.
The game was well played as far
as logan boys were concerned, but
Straitsville did not seem to be up to
the standard.
Bright and Caswcll each struck
ont nine men.
The features of the game were
two home runs by Beck and heavy
batting by Logan all over the field.
The score was Logan II, Straits

one; Hardin was nominated. The
platform is key note for Ohio and

Anthonis II. Butin, generally
known as "Uncle Tunis," contracted
with one Isaac Iiams for the erection
of dwelling house, situate on the
lot on Main Street now owned by Mrs
Bushrod Hamer. The usual prelim-

as fitting braces, pairing out mortices,
boring pin holes, bents put in position,

of more modern design: they would
fasten together whole bent extend

quired height, then raise the same,
stay with temporary bEacss. Sthen
raise another bent and stay then an
other, and another, until the entire
length had been attained: then the
critical thing was, to get the cap plates
on top, lengthwise of these bent posts,
and with braces underneath, the
building would then stand secure: but,
if after placing one, two, three, or as
many sections as you please, anyone
of them not being perfectly secure,

against other sections: the whole mass

Judge Pullen came down from his

Rempe) in full health and life, re-
solving as neigbbor, to assist in the
work, if but by his presence. The
building was perhaps half complete,
when stay gave way: warning cry
