MATHUSHEK & SON.
THE OPENING OF THEIIl HANDSOME WAREK00M9
IN HARLEM.
HE grand opening of Matnushek & Son's ware-
rooms, at 108 East 125th street, on Saturday
evening, May 28th, was a great success. A
great many invitations were Issued and the attend-
ance was large, over 600 people visiting the ware-
rooms and partaking of the excellent collation. Among
the visitors were many well known artists and musi-
cians who tested the Mathuskek pianos, of which
there was a large display in all their styles. The
warerooms are very handsome and in every way suit-
ed for the display of the elegant Mathushek piano.
When this firm commenced business some of their
rivals predicted for them failure inside of six months.
They have now been manufacturing unlnteruptedly
for over that number of years and their business has
steadily increased. It has now reached such dimen-
sions as to warrant them in opening these new ware-
rooms, besides renting a much larger factory at 212
and 214 East 122d street. The firm have made ar-
rangements to advertise their pianos largely and have
already placed cards in all the cable roads. We are
gratified to note the success of this house and be-
lieve that now, with the increased facilities, their ad-
vancement la the future will be more rapid.

Church, purchased a lot in the Immediate vicinity
lately, but, finding the Capen lot better adapted for
church purposes, made the exchange. The lot is
about fifty rods from the Dorchester station on the
New England railroad and the center of a growing
district. It has a frontage of 87 feet on Norfolk
stre *t and over 300 feet on Darling street.—Boston

Mr. L. E.Davis, of Davis Bros., Savannah, Ga.,
made us a very pleasant call a few days ago. Mr.
Davis, in company with his wife and child, is spend-
ing a few weeks North rusticating. Mr. Davis reports
their business in an excellent condition and constant-
ly growing. The line of goods handled by the firm is
excellent, consisting of the Enabe, Kranich & Bach,
Baus, Estey and New England pianos, and 'Estey or-
gans. With such instruments as these the firm are
bound to be successful and command an excellent
reputation.
THE Smith American Organ Co., Boston, are hav-
ing a steady trade in their organs, but the piano
department is more than rushing. Mr. McGlaughlin
