GiLUEitT & Co.'8 new catalogue is as handsome as
any in the trade. The outs of their uprights in it
being very sharp and clearly defined.
\. C. W. YOUNOMAN, St. Paul, Minn., reports business
very brisk. Mr. Youngman has devoted a great deal
of his time during the past six months to real estate
business, and is making money in that direction.
H. V. EiiDRiDUE, Buffalo, N. Y., has lately removed
his warerooms to the corner of North Division and
Washington streets. He has now the most centrally
located and prettiest warerooms in ihe city. The
pianos sold by Mr Eldridge are the Schomacker,
Peek & Son, J.-icob Bros., and Guild. Mr. Francis,
the right hand man, who has just returned from a
trip through Pennsylvania, reports trade very good,
and says he made many sales for the Schomaker.
GEORGE W. STROPE & Co., Kansas City, Mo., are
making extensive alterations in their warerooms.
They are building an extension 100 feet deep, and
when completed, will make as handsome warerooms
as any in the West. Messrs. Strope & Co. have han-
dled the Behning piano for many years, and through
their efforts the piano has become very popular
throughout their territory.

instrument, and have had great success with it ever
since they took the agency. Messrs. Janke & Co.
claim that this piano is equal to any made, and as
they are both practical piano men their judgment
ought to be good.
AN automatic check for music boxes has been
patented by Mr. Alftvd Sueur, of New York City. I t
is so connected with the music box mechanism that,
when the latter is rotated too fast, a ratchet wheel is
made to force a pawl into locking engagement and
stop the mechanism, thu9 preventing the breaking
of the pins and the teeth of the comb.

Kranich. Mr. Kranich is a first class performer and
plays with good taste, and his technique shows the
effects of careful study.
W. C. BURGESS, Auburn, Now York, reports busi-
ness improving, and cash sales more frequent.
BEHNING & SON'S new factory, at 157 and 159 East
THOS. F. SCANLAN, of Boston, Mass., has built an
One Hundred and Twenty-eighth street, is one of
the most complete we ever saw. All the floors are
well lighted, and contain every convenience for the
rapid and perfect manufacture of instruments. On
the second floor are elegant warerooms, well lighted
and arranged for the excellent display of pianos.
These warerooms are so constructed that they can
easily be used as^concert rooms, and it is the inten-
tion of the firm to avail themselves of this opportu-
nity in the Fall. They have already made several
engagements for the months of October, November,
and December. We see no reason why Behning &
8on cannot work up a very large retail trade in Har-
lem, and we believe they will do so.
extension to his factory. It is six stories high, and
covers two lots. This move on the part of Mr.
Scanlan was necessitated by the constantly growing
demand for the instruments he manufactures.
AN automatic check for music boxes has been
patented by Mr. Charles E. Juillerat, of New York
City. Combined with the cylinder and comb of a
musical box is a wheel on the cylinder, a cam wheel,
projecting teeth, a pawl and lug, etc., to check the
cylinder when the flyer cylinder gets out of order or

THE Madison Square Theatre continues to draw
large audiences nightly, "Prince Karl" proving a
very strong attraction. The management of this
cosy theatre spare no pains nor expense to make it a
cool and comfortable place to spend these warm
evenings. The dramatis persona in "Prince Karl,"
it is needless to say, is first class.
DECKER & SON, New York, report business ex-
cellent. They shipped more pianos in June, of this
year, than any year for a long time during the same
month. Mr. Myron A. Docker, the head of the firm,
will leave with his family about the middle of August,
and visit all the prominent places of interest between
New York and St. Paul. This trip is to be made
solely for pleasure, and we wish Mr. Decker and his
family a pleasant journey.
