The Only Centennial Award for a Telegraph

Insulator.

 

THE award made for the BROOKS Improved Insulator, at the Centennial Exhibition, is the only medal awarded for telegraph insulators of any description. This is a very gratifying and proper recognition of the superiority of this insulator, as all the varieties of American insulators were exhibited by the Western Electric M'f'g Company, and every variety of European insulators by SCHOMBERTG, of Berlin. The juror, in this case, was the highest authority upon such matters, the distinguished electrician and inventor, Sir WILLIAM THOMSON. This is the third award that the BROOKS Insulator has received at international exhibitions, and in every instance, when not the only one, it has been the highest.

We congratulate Mr. BROOKS upon the well merited compliment and recommendation which his excellent insulator has received in this and other instances.
