T
HE semi-annual meeting, of the Weaver
Organ & Piano Co., York, Pa., was
held July 10. The usual semi-annual div-
idend of 3 per cent, was declared. It is the
first regular meeting held since the death of
the president, Mr. J. H. Baer. A short time
ago at a special meeting of the directors,
Chas. F. Baer, son of the former president,
and now the senior member of J. H. Baer &
Sons, bankers, was elected as a director of
the corporation. The organization now
stands as follows: M. B. Gibson, president
and director; W. S. Bond, secretary, treas-
urer and director; Chas. F. Baer, director.
The company has done almost twice the
volume of business up to July ist that it
did in the first six months of 1895. The
warerooms at Lancaster are doing a good
business. Mr. R. E. Hamme, the manager,
is quite an energetic man and is building
up a good trade in the neighboring city.
The company are just opening new ware-
houses at 1319 North Sixth street, Harris-
burg, Pa., with Mr. H. I. Shank as manager.
They will handle Weaver organs, Blasius
& Sons, Bush & Gerts and Albrecht pianos.
Mr. Gibson is now sojourning with his
entire family at Asbury Park, where he will
remain two weeks.
Music dealers who desire to keep
pace with the times and to make
money should carry a line of
