Fire at Needham's.
RETAIL ESTABLISHMENT DAMAGED.
T an early hour last Monday morning
a fire broke out in the Maillard
Building, corner of University place and
Fourteenth street. In this building is lo-
cated the retail establishment of the Need- riANUFACTURERS OF
ham Piano-Organ Co. Some thirty-five
pianos were on the floor, most of which
were seriously damaged by water. The
stock was fully insured, and the firm will
suffer no pecuniary loss. Mr. Parsons lost
no time in immediately securing temporary
quarters at No. 86 Fifth avenue, where
they will be located for the next two
months, during which time their old ware-
rooms will be made ready for occupancy.
They at once ordered from the factory
plenty of new instruments, which will en-
able them to carry on a retail business un- For terms and territory
interruptedly. Mr. Parsons takes the mat-
ter very philosophically, and said he could
not allow anything like a fire to interfere
with his departure for Europe. He
planned to leave Wednesday, and last Wed-
nesday he sailed on the steamer "Paris,"
to be absent a couple of months. Thus a
little thing like a fire does not disconcert
the Needham people; no, not in the least.

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 superiority of work-

just as perfect as a piano can be made.
THE STERLING ORGAN has always taken the lead, and
the improvements made this year puts it far ahead of
