(Special to The Review.)
Uayton, 0., September 6, 1904.
The Dayton Talking Machine Co., of 40 Bast
4th street, opened their doors to the public Satur-
day, August 27. The store was handsomely deco-
rated, and a souvenir was given to everybody.
The people were highly entertained with the lat-
est line of records and the opening was a grand
success. The members of the firm are C. S. Wei-
gert, E. E. Leippel and A. G. Gessler. They also
have a full line of sheet music in their store.
AN INTERESTING PUBLICATION.
The September issue of C. G. Conn's "Truth"
is one of the most interesting of the series pub-
lished by this enterprising manufacturer. It is
as full of illustrations and well-written text as an
egg is full of meat. On the front cover are ex-
cellent photographs of the Michigan Military
Academy Band and Orchestra of Orchard Lake,
Michigan. A reproduction of a photograph of C.
G. Conn's Palace of Music at St. Louis occupies
a conspicuous place. There are well-executed
portraits of a score of celebrities who believe in
the Conn instruments and a host of indorsements
of the Conn products. Altogether, is a highly
creditable issue, and ought to be most effective in
furthering the Conn interests.
line in which sound waves are recorded as undu-
lations. The diamond or steel tracing point of
the speaking apparatus rests in the sinuous
groove made in the record. The speaking ap-
paratus contains two separated strips of wax,
which are connected by a fork and lever with
the tracing point, and are enclosed in an extern-
ally cushioned TJOX opening into a papier mache
horn through a cavity lined with soft rubber.
A VIOLIN 224 YEARS OLD.
Joe Hoyt has bought an old violin from N. B.
Whiteside, of Rome, Kan. The deal was negoti-
ated through a party at Ashton and the price paid
for the instrument was $500 cash. The violin is
224 years old, having been made in 1680. It has
been the property of Mr. Whiteside for years,
and he in turn received it from his father. The
instrument is a beautiful one and is inlaid with
various kinds of rare and expensive woods. Around
the edge of it is an inscription in Latin. Mr.
Hoyt says he thinks the violin is worth at least
$2,000 and that he can sell it for the amount.—

Cleveland, O., September G, 1904.
Judge Tilden yesterday appointed C. J. Neal re-
ceiver for the Cleveland Talking Machine Co.
The petition for this action was signed by all the
stockholders, who state that a dissolution of the
company and a sale of its property are neces-
sary.

stands revealed one of the reasons of their suc-

their trade exceptional advantages from time to

and diversified, but fresh, up-to-date and a sur-

They are continually progressive, and their

from their new catalogue: "We are confident
that the right goods at the right prices will bring

One of the most valuable historical relics in th?
United States, an English snare drum, the prop-
erty of Richard A. Peirce Post, G. A. R., of New
Bedford, Mass., was recently seen in the G. A. R.
parade in Boston. Several American historical
societies have long tried to secure possession of it
by gift or purchase, for it is of Revolutionary
fame and associated with the battle of Bunker
Hill. It is believed that in this respect it is
unique, since it is the only drum known to have
been captured by the Continentals at this first
battle for American independence.
A NOVEL TALKING MACHINE.
In the new phonograph of Emanuel Cervenka,
a Bohemian, the record is made by the vibrations
of a pencil of light upon a photographic film, and
the sound reproduced from this record is claimed
to be free from the usual unpleasant metallic
rasping. The receiver is a conical tube ending in
an extremely delicate membrane of fish-bladder
connected with a 1/12-inch mirror. A pencil of
electric light only 1/500 inch in diameter is re-
flected upon a rotating photographic plate, which
advances 1/100 inch at each revolution, and when
this plate is developed it is covered by a spiral
