PLEASE do not forget to send in your cuts and
other advertising matter for the special issue of the
Music TKA.DE REVIEW, January nth to 20th, 1880, at
as early a date as possible. We shall have a large
paper and a large edition, and wish to begin to send
our^orms to press^without delay. There will be sev-
efal special features in that number that will attract
much attention.
WE regret that the extraordinary pressure upon
our advertising columns, this issue, causes us to
condense our reading matter as much as possible.
Had we been warned of the rush sufficiently in
advance we could have enlarged the paper; but, as
is usually the case, everything came in upon us at
the last moment.

PARKER SHOT GUN.
Report of the Interna-
tional Gun Trial, held at
Bergen Point, N. J., April
3,1884. Extract from Turf,
Field and Farm reporting
he same : " The Parker
Gun, our prominent home
manufacture, won the
admiration of all by its
fine shooting qualities. It
registered in both the 10
and 12-bore claaies ; the
greatest number ot pellets
n thn 30-iuoh circle, and
therefore must be awarded
the palm for pattprn."

THE Sterling Organ Company has our heartiest
congratulations that the fire in their factory on the
morning of November 18 was attended with such
comparatively small damage. The workmen were
prompt in fighting the flames, and the stock of
pianos and organs under way escaped easily.
WHO says that business is bad?
BEHNING & SON'S new styles in ebonized cases,

MESSRS. CONOVEB BROS, seem disposed to push
their libel case against the Friends. They say they
expect to have it in court before long.
CHABBIEN PELOUBET, father of Jarvis Peloubet,
manufacturer of the Standard organ, died at Bloom-
field, N. J., on Saturday, November 28. He was
born in Philadelphia in 1806, and was nearly eighty
years old at the time of his death. He originally
manufactured llutes at Watsessing, N. J.,and in 1852
began the manufacture of melodeons. He had not
been actively engaged in business in several years,
and to the later generation of the music trade was
hardly known. Mr. Peloubet was of French descent,
and his father nearly lost his life during the French
revolution.
MR. B. DREHER, of Cleveland, Ohio, has taken out
a patent on a music desk, which is said to be simple
