PORTLAND PIANO BUSINESS.
To a Coryallis Lady "it Showed
Awfully Lively. .
UP
A Corvallis ; lady who went to
Portland last week to purchase a
piano and returned without an in
strument tells how she was struck
with the difference in the piano
house's methods of doing business.
The ladv was warmly received
at one of the leading establishments.-
She had looked about for
only a short time when after a good
deal of demonstration at the phone,
an attache of the house came in
with a large card and hung it on
the piano. The inscription on the
card was "Sold." The gentleman
attending the Corvallis lady inform
ed ber that the instrument had
been sold by telephone. Presenly
another was sold in the same man
ner, and then another. . Apparent
ly a man. was kept busy selling
pianos by wire and placing : sold"
cards on the instruments.
"This seems to be your busy
time of day," remarked the lady
who was the only customer present.
"Oh, no, indeed, we have sold
five hundred pianos "and organs al
ready today. The instruments are
going very fast and I would advise
you to make up your mind at once,
to take this piano you seem to
like it, and it is a very popular in
strument." "Do you sell many of them?"
"More than any other style," re
plied the clerk.
Just then there was another tele
phone call, and it proved to be an
order for the last one of the lady's
favorite instrument. As the card
was hung upon it the clerk observ- j
ed the effect upon the customer
She feigned intense disappointment.
The clerk undertook to console her
by stating that he had others in
the warerooms exactly like it, but
she refused to be comforted. She
would not even take the piano she
had set her heart on because the
real purchaser would doubtless be
greatly disoppointed upon not re
ceiviner that identical instrument: if
she hadn't wanted that one she
wouldn't have phoned for it. The
Corvallis lady finally permitted her
selfto be led to the door in a hysteri
cal mood. ' '
It is needless to say that the lady
became braced up by the time she
arrived at " the next piano
house. At the time she ' enter
red there - didn't seem to be
much doing, but. as soon as she in
troduced herself, business began to
improve. It became almost as live
ly as it was at the other place. The
difference nsted by the lady was, at
the latter place people came in per
son to buy pianos and planked
aown the twenty-dollar pieces in
payment, This firm also nearly
sold out while she was " there. -
I notice, said the prospective
buyer," that you do busidess on a
basis different from your competit
ors across the way. The'-sell al
most entirely by telephone," while
yott sell, seemingly, for cash only:"
"Yes," responded the attendant,
Here the lady broke in with this
information: '"I had hoped to se
cure an instrument on the install
ment plan, but since it appears to
be your rule to sell for cash I shall
go elsewhere " She would not al
low the house io vary fro to its rule
to accommodate her; -.
7 The Corvallis lady was thorough
ly out of patience with the designs
of the Portland dealers. She dis
covered that pianos were consider
ably, higher there . than at home,
and will order through a local
agent. ' .
The lady would be glad to supple
ment the Portland board of trade's
inquiry as ro inerscarcuy 01 ireigm
cars. If the Portland piano dealers
. . , j r r. 1
each ship in 500 pianos per day,
as their alleged sales indicate, what
becomes of the empty cars?

daughter Clara who a few ye
ago married a Mr, White , and w
resided in Portland died the sa

in the morning.and the father at . 1
o'clock in the afternoon. . The age
of Mr. Feagleswas63 and that of his
daughter 26. Her body was brou
ght to Independence and a double
tuneral was held there conducted
by Dr. Thompson The burial oc
curred Monday afternoon at the
Odd Fellows cemetery of that
place.
Mr. Feagles came to Benton
County from California in 1868,
and for a long time resided in the
Big Elk country. There he was
married to Miss Lillard a daughter
of the lae Morgan Lillard. The
wife died many years ago,x leaving
three children, Clara, Florence and
John. Florence is now the wife of

Mr. Feagles spent last winter in
Corvallis, and during the summer
was out prospecting. Many years
ago he discovered a cinnabar ledge
in the Cascades, and since the me
tal became more valuable Mr Fea
gles has spent : much ' time in 1
search for the lost ledge. The hope
of finding it and the wealth that he
expected to result was the fond
dream of his declining years.
inuring tne nop season ne was a
picker at the Independence yards.
and after that was at the home of
Joseph Smith. Two or three weeks
ago he went to Independence, where
death overtook him. . He was born
in Ohio, in 1835, and emigrated
from that state to California in 1857
His death recalls a Benton county
tragedy, in which Morgan Lillard.
the, father-in -law met death at the
hands of Mr. Feagles. - The trouble
occurred in the Big ; Elk country.
and was over the question' of where
a certain county road should pass.
Both principals resorted to firearms
and a jury found that Mr. Feagles
acted in sen defense.
