ESTABLISHED 1850,
THE piano warerooms of B. Dreher & Sons, Cleve-
land, O., are about to be remodeled and enlarged. Ow-
ing to the rapidly increasing Business of this old firm,
moreover, an additional building has been leased, which
will be used as a warehouse and also as a workshop and
repairing room. Thus the firm will be enabled to carry
the largest stock of pianos and organs ever exhibited in
Cleveland. They carry the Decker Bros., B. Dreher,
Kranich & Bach, Newby & Evans, Sterling and Handel
pianos, and the Worcester and New England organs, in
oak, rosewood, maple, walnut, ebony, and mahogany
cases, and as they now handle such an extraordinarily
large number of instruments they are enabled to sell
at the very lowest margins either on cash or instalments.
The name of Dreher has for more than thirty years
been honorably connected with the piano trade of Cleve-
land.

Sterling Company,
THE wide-awake firm of Thomas Goggan & Brother,
Galveston, Tex., have purchased the entire stock of
pianos, organs, sheet-music, etc., formerly belonging to
the late firm of H. H. Hazzard & Co., of Austin, Tex.,
and have taken up the lease of the building formerly
occupied by the same firm, of which they will at once
take possession for the purpose of continuing business
there. There is nothing halting about the enterprise of
Messrs. Goggan.
THE business of the late Henry B. Hamilton of Low-
ell, Mass., dealer in pianos and organs, will be continu-
ed by his widow, Mrs. Annie E. Hamilton, administra-
trix of the deceased gentleman's estate.
MR. EDWIN TROWBRIDGE of Franklin, Mass., piano
dealer, has announced his intention of manufacturing
first-class pianos. The new concern is to be called the
Trowbridge Piano Company.
A FINE supply of St. Jago mahogany, beautifully
figured, has been lately procured by Isaac I. Cole & Son,
and stored in their warerooms at the foot of 8th street,
East River, New York. They have also a stock of mag-
nificently figured walnut veneers.
JACK HAYNES, as he is popularly known and as he
prefers to be described, notwithstanding the puerile and
pettifogging objections of The Musical Courier, has re-
ceived from Germany another large order for Newman
Bros, organs. These goods are making great head-
way in Europe. The general business of Newman
Bros, is advancing. Their monthly sales largely exceed
the monthly average of last year's.
MR. F. J. MABON, whose successful maiden trip in
the interest of Newman Bros, was referred to in our
last issue, has been compelled by illness to abandon
" the road," much to the regret of Jack Haynes. Mr.
Mabon's physicians consider him unsuited to the wear
and tear of a drummer's life.
CHARI.ES S. WEBER, of San Jose, Cal., was in the
city this week and last.
THE trade of Sohmer & Co., N. Y., both wholesale
and retail, is very large—much larger than at this season

vannah, Ga., is in town.
THE Davenport & Treacy Company, piano plate
manufacturers, of 444 West 16th street, N. Y., and Stan-
ford, Conn., are considerably enlarging their Stanford
factory. This evidence of prosperity is the natural re-
sult of their manufacture of excellent goods, their
prompt fulfilment of orders, and their general relia-
bilty.
PEEK & SON, West 47th street and Broadway, N. Y.,
manufacturers of the "Opera" piano, publish a card on
the reverse side of which is a formula for the benefit
of any who may fall sick or in trouble among strangers.
Space is left for the name and address, and for other
particulars. Any person receiving succor by reason of
this sensible and humane arrangement ought to show
his or her gratitude by purchasing an "Opera" piano.
J. C. ELLIS, of J. C. Ellis & Co., music dealers, of
Cleveland, O., was in the city last week.
FEBRUARY was a splendid month with the E. P. Car-
penter Co., of Brattleboro, Vt.—far above their most
sanguine expectations. The foreign trade of this fine
organ-manufacturing firm holds good. They have just
completed arrangements whereby a concern will exclu-
sively represent them in Mexico. Their prospects for
the balance of the year are very bright.

It is admitted by all that no piano ever put upon
the market has met with such success as THE
STERLING, and thousands will testify to their superi-
ority of workmanship and durability. Why? Be-
cause they are made just as perfect as a piano can be
made.
THE STERLING ORGAN has always taken the lead,
and the improvements made this year puts its far
ahead of all others. ^&~ Send for Catalogue.
