LIGHTNESS In running
is an essential quality in
tlio home sewing machine.
The "Globe" is the lightest
running machine in mar
ket today.
A NOISY, rattling Bewtng
machine Is a nuisance any
where, but more especially
in a home. The "Globe"
if properly attended to is
silent when working.
SIMPLICITY In construc
tion is of the utmost im
portance In the selection of
a sewing machine. There
are fewer working parts in
the "Globe" Machine than
any other.
BECAUSE of its sim
plicity of construction the
"Globe" Sewing Machine
is easily learned and. man
aged. Shuttle, upier ten
sion, needle setting and
spool winding, etc., are all
automatic.

yOLOBE Sewing Machines
f will wear a lifetime. Fric
tion is reduced to a mini
mum at every point. All
the working parts are
made from the best case
hardened steel, and money
will buy no better at any
price.
IN THE matter of attach
ments for special work,
etc., the outfit of the
"Globe" Machines is the
most complete we have
ever seen; nothing essen
tial or desirable being
wanting.
THE cabinet work and
outer castings of the
"Globe" Sewing Machines
are marvels of beauty,
combined with which is
ithat solidity which insures
durability.
A SEWING Machine for
the home should be attrac
tive looking. The nickel,
enamel and gold decora
tions on the "Globe" Sew
ing Machines are unusual
ly handsome.
IN FINISH, take It at any
point you will, there Is not
a careless or thoughtless
touch in, ithe entire con
struction of the "Globe"
Sewing Machines, which
cost as much to produce as
any machine on the mar

ment Measures Cannot be Kcconsid
crcd Defeat In Indicated Mo
mortal Day Exercises Hold.
Special to the Scrnnton Tribune
Harrlsburg, May 30. Senator Quay
la confident that apportionment meas
ures will be defeated, and has given
expression of opinion to that effect. All
appearances seem to point that way.
The Tribune correspondent has it from
KATTHKW 8. OUAT.
good authority that the Beaver states
man and his friends are firm in the
determination to postpone appropria
tion business for the present.
Senator Quay Is in the city
directing the fight against the
state administration. The Issue is
the apportionment question, and the
senator is lined up against the advo
cates of a reapportionment of the state.
With him. Is Lieutenant Governor
Lyon, Senators Andrews and Penrose.
And ex-Magistrate Durham, of Phila
delphia; Dave Martin, Chris L. Magee
and Senator Flinn are In line with the
administration. The battle is one of
the fiercest ever wagea at the state
capltol, and the chances are 3 to 1 In
Quay's favor.
His friends In the senate, at a cau
cus this morning of the Republican
senators to consider the apportionment
question, sprung a motion to adjourn
at the call of the chair and forced It
through. Chairman Smith Is a friend
of Senator Quay and will call the cau
cus when It la too late to consider the
apportionment bills.
A Stormy Caucti9.
The committee appointed by the
house caucus met tonight and agreed
to report the three approtlonment bills
defeated last week by the house. If
the apportionment bills were passed In
the house next Monday it would take
great hustling to get them through
the senate and a conference committee
by Saturday, the time fixed for the final
adjournment. One effort may be made
to do this. There Is talk of extending
the session another week, but the
Quay people are opposed to this and
will fight any such scheme. It Is said
the Quay people may call up the ap
portionment bills tomorrow and try to
defeat them. If they are successful It
is the last chance for the measures this
session. The subcommittee of the sen
ate caucus met this evening. Senator
Penrose did not like the way It was
doing things and left In disgust. He
claimed there was three less than a
quorum present. There are eleven sen
ators on the committee, and Penrose
says there were but four left when he
left.
Senator Hackenbcry, who was there,
disagreed with his colleague. He says
there were six there when Penrosewent
away.
Pcnroso Is Angry.
Senator Penrose declares the report
will not be received, as there was not a
quorum present. He blames Senator
Flinn with tricking him. Thomas is a
member of the caucus committee and
he says he was not notified of today's
meeting. Thomas Perr-u, very posi
tively says there will not be another
meeting of the senate caucus, as the
Quay people have the power and will
keep It. He claims the opposition
might call another caucus, but it would
not be considered a Republican gather
ing. Nor would It be binding. On the
matter of adjournment. Senator Thom
as Is confident the legislature will get
away June 8.
Will Attack Quay County Illll.
The administration Is looking with
evil eye on the Quay county bill, and It
will bo attacked by the forces of the
new combine when It comes up for final
passage.

out on a rough board, and the surgeon
applied restoratives, while ex-President
Harrison and the governor's pri
vate secretary, Ashley W. Cole, chafed
the hands of the unconscious man and
fanned his face. The governor had
been standing In the hot sun for more
than an hour, and had only occasional
ly used an umbrella for a couple of
minutes, when there was a break In
the lines. The sun beat down on that
part of the street with great Inteslty.

INDICTED FOR DRUNKENNESS.
A North Cnrollna Judge Continued a Ca
rousal a l.ittlo to Long.
Lambeptson, N. C, May 30. Judge
W. It. Norwood, one of the Fusion
"non-partisan" Judges of the superior
count, elected last November, has been
Indicted by the grand Jury of this coun
ty for drunkenness.
The superior court judges, of whom
there nre twelve, rotate In this state, so
'that tho same Judge holds the courts of
the same district but twice in six years.
Last week was "court week" for this
county, and Judge Norwood came here
on Monday morning under the Influence
of liquor, and continued drinking until,
at tho hour when court should have
been opened, he was too drunk to hold
court, and remained In hia room all day
at the hotel.
His friends tried ito sober him up
during that night, and on Tuesday he
was able to open court at the usual
time. He could not stand it long, it
seems, and after a session of one ihour
he adjourned court until the next day.
On Tuesday evening the Judge drank
again, and there was consequently no
court on Wednesday and the next day.
So the grand Jury of the judge's own
court found an Indictment against him
for drunkenness.
