BETTER AND "BETTER I We have been making friends In various ways, this season. One way has been by giving unprecedented values In Suits at $15. Our customers were satisfied with what we were doing, but we were all the time watching for an opportunity to do better. The opportunity came, and to the splendid variety of suits that we were already selling at $15 we have recently added two more lines that, we think, bring us pretty near to the limit. One Is a fancy hard worsted, the other a black undressed worsted.

REAT STOCK Question Discussed by Experts at Meeting of Stationary Engineers. A number of addresses were given on ut a meeting of the stationary engineers), in Damascus Temple, last niV'ht. M. Stebbins, local manager of the, Stan lard Oil Company, t-poke briefly ou the subject; K. of lioch-ester, chemist for the Vacuum Oil Company, spoke on "How Oil Is Ketined," and I'aiue, of New York city, mechanical expert for the Standard Oil Company, spoke generally of how to use the oils satisfactorily and economically.

Mr. Baxter discussed briefly the composition of petroleums and the characteristics of the oils found in llussia, Texas, California, Pennsylvania, and other places. It was not. he s-aid, until the discovery of the Pennsylvania oil tields that the engineer had a'uiiueral btock from which suitable oil for Lis uses could be obtained. Mr.

Baxter then spoke of the refining of the crudo oil, ko that it was tit for the lubrication of cylinders and the engine generally. Mr. Paine emphasized the need of giving attention to the little things about the eu-giue if tho engineer would keep it iu good running order. Very often, he feaid, the engine, when it did not appear to bi working smoothly, needed simply some slight adjustment, or tome part of it required cleaning. It was common at bucIi times, said he, to Cnd fault with the oil, while it might be of the very best quality and perfectly adapted to the machiuery upon which it was being used.

It was necessary, however, be said, to be sute that oil of the proper thickness were used. The use of graphite -a oil was condemned. It was impossible, said Mr. Paine, to suspend the graphito iu the oil. In answer to questions, the speaker gave practical suggestions as to the use of oils and the cart of engines.

No stone is being left unturned by tk; local National Guardsmen in their efforts to induce Governor Udell to sign the bill now iu his hands, appropriating money for the erection of a new armory in this city. The bill has been pronounced dead by those who profess to know, but the officers and men of the and Eighth Separate companies and the Second Separate Naval Division refuse to acknowledge themselves beaten as long as there is any hope, and they will endeavor to bring such pressure to bear that the Governor will sign th bill.

A meeting of the First and Eighth Separate companies has been called for today at 2 o'clock at the Armory to talk over plans for enlisting more help in their behalf. Captain Simmons swid yesterday that the men would be called togetner mainly for the purpose of setting in motion whatever iiersonal influence they could bring to bear on the Governor. Each man will be asked to do personal work among his friends, requesting each to write the Governor, asking him to sign the bill. On Friday of last week, a large number of circular letters were sent to prominent men of the city and to officials interested iu the movement for a new Armory. The letters told of the need of a new armory in the city and stated how matters stand at present.

They ended by asking that Iersonal letters be addressed to the Governor urging him to sign the bill. The letter was signed by Lieutenant E. N. Walbridge, Captain F. G.

Smith and Captain C. A. Simmons. Yesterday these officers received word from a large number of those to whom letters had been sent, that they would write to the Governor as requested, and it is hoped this backing wilt not be without its effect. To-morrow night there will be held a regular meeting of the L.

Bordman Smith Command of Spanish War Veterans, in the rooms of the Eighth Separate Company, at the Armory. Plans for the Memorial Day parade will be talked over. It is expected that a large number of members will turn out in the parade; the command having been assigned a place in the first division with the G. A. H.

commands and the members of the Sons of Veterans. Preparations for the ball to be given by the L. Bordman Smith Command, at the Armory, on May 27th, will be talked over. The First and Eighth Separate Companies end the Navel Reserves will participate in thii affair. There will be a review of the two companies, Major William Wilson, of Geneva, having consented to act a reviewing officer.

The members of the Naval Reserve will give a gun drill. Dancing will follow. It i expected that several members will be mustered into the command at tomorrow night's meeting. The members of the two local companies are waiting with interest the official report on the results of the Wilson trophy shoot, which was completed two weeks ago. The four companies of the Second Battalion were iu the competition for this trophy, which is offered by Major Wilsoa to- tho company making the highest record during the indoor season.

On Tuesday night of this week the former members of the First Separate Company will meet in the company room and perfect the formation of a Veterans' Corps of that company. Several attempts Lave been made to form such an organization but without success. The latest venture, however, has attracted the attention of nearly ail of the older members of the company, and it is probable that a permanent organization will be effected. Tue.sMay night is the twelfth anniversary of the organization of the First Separat Company. The exercises will consist of a business session, to 'be followed by an entertainment and moker.

There are nine-ty-seven men who have been honorably discharged from the First since its formation, after five years of service, of which ntnn-ter eighty-two are residents of this city. TLe idea ia forming the veterans corpa I to bring the older members together, and for this purpose it is thought that Bodal sf sioii3 will be held during the year, when the charter members may talk over the years of their service. No date has been set for the company shoot between the First and Eighth Separate companies, which was planned some time ago. The Eighth Separate Company challenged the First to a shoot, and offered to contribute any amount up to $50, with the First Separate Company, for a trophy to go to the winning team. The trip of the Eighth to St.

Ixmis compelled the jvostponement of the shoot, and sine then the committees from the two companies have not been able to get together nnd arrange a date and conditions for the siioot. L.i.t year the First Separate Company's team won a similar shoot, and there is considerable rivalry between the two companies. A Pleasing Innovation.

ERA OF GREAT PROGRESS "Began With Road Seventeen Miles Long Consolidated Ten Rail' roads To-Day the System Controls 11.090 Miles of Road. To-day marks the rounding out of a half century of the history of the New York Central Hailroad, cn event of paramount interest to every New York state man, significant as it is of the great industrial progress of the Empire state. With the growth of this road has come the development not ouly of the state, but of the vast resources of the West, of which this pathway to the sea has formed an outlet. The New York Central is the consolida-tioi.

of the short lines known fifty years ago. as The Albany Schenectady. The Schenectady tfc Troy, The Utica Schenectady, The Mohawk Valley, The Syracuse Utica, The Syracuse Utica Direct, The Hochester Syracuse, The Buffalo Hochester, The Hochester, I.ockport Niagara Falls and The Buffalo Lockport Hallways. The road began Its united existence on May 17, 1ST.3, with the filing of the articles of agreement, and on July Cth, the first board of directors was elected. The whole line was delivered to the company, August Lst.

By the articles of agreement, better service, more complete connection between all points, and a more general stimulus to development than was possible under separate management was assured, and this agreement has been amply lived up to. This paved the way for the consolidation with the Hudson Hiver Hoad, which was effected in 1809. The of this move Las been one of the great West, opening as it did a direct pas-great West, opening as it did a direct pass-sageway to the sea and discovering at last the. long looked for passage across the continent. In running great railroad through this point man was only following out the plan of nature, for It Is through the only break in the Appalachian mountain chain, from the Culf to the St.

Lawrence, that the line rund. It was by this path that tho fierce Iroquois sought his enemies on the western border, and over this route, too, the war parties went in the French aud Indian war. It was through here that the pioneer, leaving the crowded Hudson valley, sought the unbroken wilderness of Western New York. There is much, then, of historic Interest, as well as picturesque fancy, connected with the old road. It would be of interest, indeed, to compare the puny little line of fifty years ago with the road of to-day.

The Twentieth Century Limited would have seemed like a dream 2 the Arabian Nights to the forefathers of a half-century past. Then a journey from New York to Buffalo was a trying undertaking. Now It can be accomplished with greater comfort than was to be found in tho best metropolitan hotel of that day. This contrast is brought out well ia a letter by Jushua Wilbur, of Lockport, describing railroad travel in New York in lKll. fourteen years before the establishment of the present road.

The writer says: "We took the cars on State street, in Albany; these cars were drawn to the city line by horses, for locomotives were not then allowed in the city. The cars were of the ancient pattern, entered by doors on the side, with seats across the Ciir. the passengers facing each other, as ia the old fushioned stage coaches. "The speed was tremendous about twelve, miles an hour. Arrived on the ridg opposite Schenectady, our car were let down an incline plane, secured to a large rope cable, the other end being to flat cars weighted with stone, which were drawn it p.

on a parallel track as we went down. At Schenectady we changed cars and traveled west to Utica. reaching there iu the afternoon. That was tin the end of railroad travel. "A canal packet wa boarded which lnndcd lis in Syracuse next morning.

There another packet was taken for Hochester, which we reached early the following day. A third paket brought v.s from Hochester to Lockport in sixteen hours. 'The time consumed iu coming from New York city to lockport wat nearly four days being on the move nil the time, except tho night spent at Albany. "Not long after the roads built from Albany westward, and from Hnffal.) eastward met, and a continuous line was formed, but with many changes of cars and other inconveniences. "Then the Hudson Hirer road was opened, and Huffalo and New York became neighbors." Of these lines the Albany Schenectady, which was chartered iu ISiM as the Mohawk Hudson, was opened September HI, 1H.11, nnd was the first railroad built iu the state of New York, the name was changed iu 1S1T to "The Albany tfc Schenectady." The nuclcu of the New York Central as the little line seventeen miles in length out of Albany, over which the D-jwitt Clinton train tau, with its primitive engine nnd three small passenger coaches; old Concord stages made over; running at the speed of fifteen miles an hour.

Today the New York Central lines have miles of road in commission, nud some of their trains have records of seventy ami eighty miles nu hour. There have been many changes on the line through this city. Every adult Ho. h-e-terian remembers the old station standing between Front and Mill streets in f-ont of the Htackett House. Here it was that the wily cabmen caught the innocent stranger nt the Front, street exit and charged him cents for taking him a round half a dozen squares to Congress Hall at tho other end of the depot, ihe hotel still standing under the name of the Hristol.

The tracks then ran on the level. In lSS't the work of raising the tracks was begun at the same time that the new depot was commenced. This work was completed iu two years without a moment's delay to traflic during the whole time. Lilac Display a Failure. The display of lilacs that usually attracts hundreds of people to Highland Park at this time of year is announced by the Park Commission to be a failure.

The recent killing frost so blighted the buds that only a straggling cluster here and there has shown itself. This is a matter of great regret both to the Park Commission and the public, as the display is usually one of the tiuest in the country. Trolley Ride lo Ontario. Horace O. Hrewster gave a trolley party to Ontario over the Sodus line yesterday afternoon.

About thirty persons were invited. The trip was made especially enjoyable because of the orchard trees along the line being in full bloom. Fell from Bridge.

Macy died last evening, at 7 o'clock, at his home, "Chilmark," near Avon, aged Gi years. Mr. Macy had been seriously ill for about five months. His death, though not unexpected, -will tiring sorrow to a large circle of friends 'and acquaintances. Mr.

Macy was born in New Y'ork city July 2S, 1S33, aud moved to Rochester about twenty-five years ago, where he lived until a short time ago, when he made his home near Avon.

Macy was emphatically a gentleman of the old school, distinguished for grace and courtesy and for loyalty to his friends. His conduct was ever characterized by sincerity of manner and lack of affectation. A more hospitable man than he could scarcely be found, a fact to which his many friends attest.

Unknown Miscreant Sent in False Alarm and Made Good His Escape. The well known cotton mill fire box. No. 01, was pulled at 9:25 last night by an unknown miscreant. He escaped, but Sergeant Klein has a clew and may make an arrest to-day.

There was no fire. As No. 11 is considered the worst box la the city to have an alarm come from, nearly all of the fire apparatus in the city responds. The departrnenc made a spectacular run to the delight of many thousands on Maiu and State streets. It was a typical summer Saturday night crowd and thousands were headed toward the tire box on Commercial street when the fire apparatus was seen returning.

Sergeant Klein and Officers Van Anker, Demler and Phalen were early at the box and found a watchman from the Foster piano factory who said he had seen a boy Friday night try to pull the box. The watchman gave a good description of the lad, who he thought was an Italian. Many bad fires have been rnng in from box No. 91, notably that of the lantern works, and the fact gives the box a bad name. It has a knob on the outside, making it easy to ring.
