lately added materially to their '' violin and
piano,'' and other instrumental series. Their
'' Pleasing Classics " for ' 'violin and piano'' have
received a number of notable additions, which
will be warmly welcomed by violinists. " Six
Album Leaves, "by Lebas, published in separate
form, must all claim mention; they belong to
the '' violin and piano '' selections and are adapt-
ed to performers of the medium grade. Lovers of
Irish music will also appreciate the selection of
Irish songs which the Ditson Co. are bringing
out in their "Gems of Ireland" series. We
must further acknowledge receipt of a number of
additions to this department. "The Excel-
sior Guitar Selection," " t h e Geibel Album,"
and other standard series have been similarly
added to with the approach of the season.

From the S. Brainard Sons Co., Chicago,
we have received several new songs by T.
Brigham Bishop, the successful composer, an
excellent and exceptionally good '' Ave Maria,''
by Mr. August Hyllested, the eminent pianist
and composer, on Sir Walter Scott's words, as
well as several other important publications.

The Louis Grunewald Co., of New Orleans,
have just published a stirring little composition
by Paul Tulane Wayne, which deserves praise—
the "Trolley Polka." The composer writes very
cleverly in the small forms. The publishers
have brought it out very artistically.

We may also give favorable mention to
" Sunlight and Shadows, " a very pretty ballad
in waltz tempo, by Chas. Shackford. Louis H.
Ross & Co., Boston, are the publishers.
TH£ BOOM AT

SjjTHE well sustained increase in the attendance
-*L) at the Chicago Fair is a decisive proof of
the popularity of the Exposition with the
people. The record of all such enterprises
shows that they grow in public interest as their
merits begin to be appreciated, but that the at-
tendance is apt to fall off during the hot
months. The Chicago Fair will be unique in
this respect, however, the close of every month
having shown an increased attendance over the
previous month. The following table gives the
record of the four months past :
Total for May
-
. . .
1,050,037
Total for June -

-
- 2,675,113
Total for July
-
. . .
2,760,263
Total for August
-
. . .
3,515,493
Grand total
10,000,906
The average daily attendance for May was
about 34,000, including Sundays. For June it
rose to 89,000, July saw an increase to 92,000 a
day, while the average attendance for August
jumped to about 116,000. The attendance dur-
ing the first sixteen days of September will
doubtless show a total of more than 2,500,000,
or an average of over 150,000 a day, and mak-
ing the total paid attendance from the time the
Fair was opened up to to night about 12,500,000.
"THE HIGHEST TYPE."
With six weeks of the best time of the Fair yet
to run a total attendance by Nov. 1st, of at least
20,000,000 can be confidently counted upon, and
if the gates are kept open a few weeks beyond
that date the paid attendance may rise to 25,-
000,000, placing the Chicago Fair second only
to the Paris Exposition of 1889 in point of at-
tendance.

The Supreme Court of South Carolina held,
in the recent case of Bratton vs. Lowery. that
where a married woman borrows money from
one who is led to believe that it is for her sepa-
rate use, her contract to repay the same may be
enforced whether it was in fact borrowed for her
use or that of her husband.

The Supreme Court of Maine held, in the
recent case of Ljbby vs. Maine Central Railroad
Company, that it is not culpable negligence on
the part of a railroad company, in the construc-
tion of its road bed, track and culverts, if it
has failed to provide against extraordinary and
unprecedented storms, floods, or other inevitable
casualties caused by the hidden forces of nature,
unknown to common experience, and which
could not have been reasonably anticipated by
that degree of engineering skill and experience
required in the prudent construction of a rail-
road.

company adopted a resolution to the effect that
a certain person named was " hereby authorized
to take full charge of the company's business,
and to enter into such negotiations and con-
tracts as he thinks b r s f for the company's in-
terest," the person named was authorized to
appoint a local agent with power to hire a barge
for defendant, and agree that, if not returned in
as good condition as when hired, defendant
would pay the agreed value of the barge, as
upon a purchase.

It is admitted by all that no piano ever put upon the

just as perfect as a piano can be made.

The United States Circuit Court of Appeals
held, in the recent case of Beal vs. National
Exchange Bank of Dallas, that where a bank
sends commercial paper to another bank for col-
lection and credit on general account, the custom
between them being to enter the credit only
when the paper is collected, the relation between
the banks is that of principal and agent until
the collection is made and the money received
by the second bank, and if the latter sends it
to another bank, which collects the paper, but
does not remit the proceeds until after the agent
bank has failed, the principal can recover the
proceeds from the receiver thereof.
FALSE PRETENSES—SIGNATURE—NOTE.
The Kentucky Court of Appeals held, in the
recent case of Commonwealth vs. Warren, that
in order to constitute the offense of obtaining
the signature of another to a writing by false
pretense the false pretense must be a statement
of some pretended, past occurrence or existing
fact made for the purpose of inducing the party
injured to sign the writing ; that no statement
