THE
onstration," beginning at page 5, is cleverly
written and admirably suited for the pur-
pose, particularly the "Don'ts" at the end.
Viewed from any standpoint, every up-to-
date music dealer ought to know some-
thing of music-box construction. Regina
Reasoning No. 2 provides the opportunity.
MUSIC TRADE REVIEW
THE HOBBIE CO.'S HANDSOME QUARTERS.
HADDORF AMBASSADOR MARRIED.
The Hobbie Co., who have long repre-
sented the Chickering piano in Roanoke,
Va., are now at home in their new three-
story building, which has been thoroughly
remodeled and renovated. When one
enters the first thing that catches the eye,
is the life-size bust of Jonas Chickering on
a
handsome pedestal, which finds sym-

Winning High Praise—How and Why the ooms.
Henry R. Brinckerhoff, ambassador for
the Haddorf Piano Co., was married re-
cently to Miss C. J. Shepard, daughter of
Henry O. Shepard, a prominent citizen of
Chicago. The wedding was private on ac-
count of sickness in the family. Mr.
Brinckerhoff and his wife are on a pleasure
trip South.
The Chas. M. Stieff branch warerooms
in Richmond., Va., will shortly move to
larger quarters at 307 East Broad street.
Conn Products Excel.
Dealers and musicians cannot fail to be
interested in the Perfected cornet, one of
the latest specialties introduced by C. G.
Conn, the eminent band instrument manu-
facturer of Elkhart, Ind. It marks a dis-
tinct advance in all those essentials so
requisite to the artist. In tone quality and
accuracy, and ease of blowing, the Perfec-
ted cornet adds luster to American inven-
tiveness in the realm of band instrument
manufacturing.
Not only in the cornet field, but in ail
other instruments that go to make the band
family, Mr. Conn has been constantly la-
boring toward a greater perfection with the
result that his line of instruments to-day
are absolutely unexcelled and rival the best
creations of the world.
His system of manufacture insures a uni-
form excellence which insures the highest
standard of workmanship. His great fac-
tories at Elkhart, equipped with labor sav-
ing machinery, which performs the most
interesting and amazing work, many of
which have been invented by Mr. Conn
himself, enables the Conn institution being
able to claim a standing peculiarly indi-
vidual.
WHERE "VICTORS" CAN BE PURCHASED.
The announcement, on another page, of
the Victor Distributing and Export Co., JJ
Chambers street, has been the subject, of
much favorable comment since its first ap-
pearance. The space occupied is limited,
yet within its area appears a clever and
complete presentation of Victor business.
The famous Victor dog listening to his
master's voice, is well in evidence. Along-
side, in bold face type, stands out most
prominently the three words: "The Vic-
tor Goods," and these words are made
initial words to point out that the place to
buy Victor talking machines, records and
accessories, goods being shipped within 24
hours, is at the headquarters of the Victor
Distributing and Export Co., JJ Chambers
street. The whole story is told "in a nut-
shell."
A GREAT ASSEMBLAGE OF ARTISTS.
Only the most eminent professionals in
the United States are to appear at Carnegie
Hall, Friday evening, the 29th, at the grand
banjo, mandolin and guitar concert.
Aside from the musical possibilities of the
occasion Manager Partee states the main
purpose of the concert is "to create a new
national revival of banjo, mandolin and
guitar playing and to provide the most ar-
tistic entertainment in that line ever pre-
sented in New York or in any other city."
