The new quarters of the Melville Clark
Apollo Co., 101 Fifth avenue, are being
rapidly fitted up for occupancy. Shipments
of pianos and piano-players will be installed
on Monday, but a formal opening will not
take place until a later date, probably a couple
of weeks from now.
Chas. H. Wagener, of the company, who
has been maknig his headquarters in New
York for the past two weeks, has been busy
visiting members of the trade in important
Eastern centers with the usual excellent re-
sults.
Piano Salesman Injured.
O. H. Fiilery a piano salesman, of Den-
ver, while attempting to board a car in that
city this week, failed to reach the step and
fell to the ground. The back step of the car
struck him, inflicting injuries which may
prove dangerous. Hilery was removed to
his home, No. 3440 Franklin street.

Grinnell Advertising.
The Grinnell Bros. Music House, of De-
triot, are advertising in the local papers
"the grandest, most colossal and most com-
prehensive sale of strictly high-class musi-
cal instruments ever held in Michigan."
This fire sale includes Steinway, Sohmer,
Krakauer, Wegman, Sterling pianos, as well
as organs, pianolas and small goods.
C. Bunce, who recently bought out the
firm of Benedict Bros., at 517 East 137th

John A. Heiuzmann, brother of Otto M.
Heinzmann, is now connected with the Kra-
kauer factory.
The name of Mathushek has been before the
public for half a century and is identified with
the manufacture of instruments of high grade.
It pays to handle a well-known name. The
demand for the Mathushek & Son piano is
growing all the time. It isn't necessary to
ask why ? You know! :

The Hazelton piano is an instrument
which possesses merits of an undeniably
high standard. In the first place, Hazelton
pianos have been built by men who were
thoroughly trained in a practical school.
They were intimately acquainted with every
detail of piano manufacture, and believed
only in creating high-grade instruments.
Samuel Hazelton is one of the retiring mem-
bers of the trade who never exploits his
own accomplishments, but Mr. Hazelton
worthily wears the honors which have be-
fallen him, and by his dignified work has
further added to Hazelton fame. Dealers
who have sold the Hazelton piano for many
years are enthusiastic in its praise.
