It ia fine art to produce a piano that hwkcspcs nil the deairnble qualities' and none ol tho )ioor ones. It involves the assembling of the right woods, metals, ft'tts and leath ern, and tho proper seasoning, shaping and priqiortioniiig of them, the exact regulation of tho thick nesses of the sounding board to give it the proper resonance, the right tempering and winding of the steel strings to give them the finest tone, the nicest adjustment of the action, and we might truthfully say millions of other matters of minute detail. Now, if the sound of a piano pos sesses all the desirable qualities follows of course that it has been properly constructed. Such a piano is a gem. It will be as much satisfaction to you 20 years hence as it is now. Conio in ami lot us explain to von the construction of our in strumcnttt, and their sound quali ties. Ours are the very finest made, and include such perfectly con structed pianoes as the Weber of New York, the Cliickeringof Boston and the Kimball of Chicago. Pianos whose Bound qualities are not equalled tho world over and many other sterling makers not so high priced. Our business footing, too, is on a sound basis. We sell at small margin of profit and on the lowest payments and easiest terms of any piano store on the Coast. . You will find it greatlv to your advantage to make your piano pur chase hero.

Holder made a trip to the Hayatack country Friday to deliver in behall ol the Prineville cititens, a re quest to the railroad party, lo viait our city and to assure them ol a hearty welcome while in our vicinity. Bill alwnys was a great diplomat, and his poliahed manner will doubtless make great impression on Messrs. Kobler, Lytic, Wilcox and party. To say that ho represents the senti ment of our city is putting it mildly. Really, we all lore Bill and are ex tremely proud ol bis accomplish ments, and further, we consider our selves fortunate indeed in having his talents at Piineville'a service Tnreugh an oversight tbe Prineville brass band failed to turn out upon his return to play "Sea the Couquering Hero come." 1 City Canucll neetln.

A innll Hlniae Last Friday morning at about 1 o'clock, the lire bell rang an alarm and investigation nn the pnrt of the Hremen showed Mrs. Dora Lyons' recently built chicken houae to be the burning building. It being late when the alarm was souihIhI, the budding a cheap structure, burned to -the ground. The origin of the lire is unknown. Tnd'nnntr Hl(fe Rrknal. The County High Hchool Board composed of Judge Biggs, County Commissioner Mark Powell, School Superintendent Hocgli and t'ounty Ireaaurcr Bell, met Saturday and took up the matter of securing a suit able building for the High school, niter some diacuiaion it waa unani mously agreed to build a modern four room brick building with a stone basement and trimmings, and J. B. Shipp waa asked Ui make an estimate on the cost. Tho matter of the loca tion waa poatiwned until another meeting. Bids for tho new building will lie advertised (or in the near future. Another grade will lie added to the present course and perhaps two, hut this matter will be left by the High Schoul Bo. rd entirely in the hands of the principal. It is their wish, however, that every im provement lie made that the condi tions justify, and next school year will sec our city with as well an exuip ped school as can be found in the state. The next thing to be reckoned with will lie the material for the hool and as Crook County students have made names for themselves in other schools, there is no reasun why they should not do so at home, and they will. Nut only Prineville but every school district in the cnuny has a creditable niimlier of bright young students, who will find their way through the High School authorized at the laat election.
