Current Expenses $400 a
Month More than Income
Front St. Fund Mixup.
Through an error sometime ago,
the city paid out over $1,900 from
Its general funds to wipe out the cost
of improving north Front street. At
tho time, City Treasurer Hall mis
understood the situation and paid
the Inst warrant of the contractor
for Front street work, amounting to
something like $2,500, believing that
thero was sufficient money in tho
special fund created to defray the
expenses of the work to cover it.
Later he found that there was only
about $C00 in the Front street fund
so that he had to make up tho other
$1,900 from other city funds. It is
likely that tho city council will en
deavor to have this amount met by
collecting another special levy
against the benefitted property.
W. F. Squire, the expert now go
ing over the city's affairs, has made
a special report on the treasurer's
office showing the financial condition
of the municipality. According to
his report, the current expenses of
the city for tho next few months, ex
cluding special or extraordinary ex
penses, will exceed tho income at the
rate of about $400 per month. On
this account, it is proposed to have
the treasurer "stand off" some of the
warrants and hold the funds on hand
to meet tho salary warrants of city
officials and workmen.
The following figures are taken
from Mr. Squlro's report:

The Strongest Feature of the Machine
Is the simplicity and durability of the shuttle driv
ing mechanism.
The bobbin and bobbin case can be very readily
removed and replaced in a few moments, The
shuttle also is easily removed, simply by pressing on
a latch. You don't have to use a screwdriver, as is
necessary with all other rotary machines.
FEED Large double feed of same width on both
sides, causing the goods -to feed through without
guidance, sewing over seams with ease.
The feed motion is positive, no springs being used.
THE THREAD PULL OFF, located directly under
the feed and above the shuttle race cap, takes the
proper amount of thread off the bobbin for each
stitch, and thereby allows the use of a strong ten
sion on both upper and lower thread, producing a
very uniform stitch, and sewing with a long or short
stitch on thick or thin goods without adjustment of
tensions. The thread pull off also comes one side
of the needle at the time that the loop is made and
prevents it from forming on the wrong side of the
needle, thus avoiding the skipping of stitches.
SPEED By reason of the Rotary principles and
ball bearing features embodied in this machine it is
capable of running at a very high rate of speed,
making over five stitches to one movement of the
foot,
The machine has bushings or compensating bear
ings at the top and bottom of needle bar on upper
and lower shaft, and in nearly all places where the
parts are subject to wear,
BOBBIN The machine has a very large bobbin,
and the lower or bobbin- tension can be adjusted
without removing same from the machine.
BALL BEARINGS It is fitted with ball bearings
in stand wheel hub and treadle, assuring lighter run
ning and minimum friction.
"" STITCH REGULATOR It can be changed with
out loosening or tightening of a thumb screw, and
the same length of stitch can always be duplicated
without experimental trials, by referring to the num
ber on the stitch indicator plate,
THREADING Simplicity in threading is unequal
ed by any machine, and we call attention to the fact
that with neither the upper nor lower thread is there
any hole to thread through, excepting the eye of the
needle,
AUTOMATIC TENSION RELEASER By means
of it all tension is taken off the upper thread when
the lifter is raised, and the work can be taken out
without breaking the thread or springing the needle,
and without pulling the thread down by hand,
THE PATENT TENSION INDICATOR shows the
tension at a glance, It can be loosened or tightened
instantly by turning dial pointer up or down a
labor saving device that will be appreciated on
sight,
DUST CAPS on needle and presser bars are or
namental, but they are practical as well and prevent
the ingress of dust, hence less friction, smoother
working and longer wear,
CHAIN STITCH We supply our Family Rotary
machine with a chain stitch device whereby either
lock or chain stitching may be done at will of
operator,
This is included only where ordered and at a small
extra cost,
With many Rotary and Round Bobbin machines
extreme care must be used in starting a seam so as
to prevent clogging and snarling of the thread,
In our Family Rotary this has been overcome by
a New and very Important Improvement, our Thread
Cast Off, or Anti-Clogging Device, which absolutely
prevents the wrapping of thread on the shuttle
driver,
It's another positive evidence of White superiority,
