A month ago. when he vlelted that sec

In counting the score against street
musicians it must never he forgotten
tlial to them wa due the untimely
death of ore of Knirland's foremost
humor. sts John leech. The strain of
ceaseless application to his work ren
dered Iecli abnormally sensitive to
street noise, or all descriptions, and
street music in particular drove Mm
frantic, say the I.ondn Chronicle. The
organ-crinder. It la said, knew of his
enmity toward ll.eni snd p ayed within
earrl.ot of hie studio simply to plague
him. In a letter to Mr. Kasa. M. P.. who
was flaming a bill for the suppression
of street noises, Mark Lemon, the edi
tor of Punch, declared that beyond a
count Leech's ultimately fatal malady,
angina pectoris, or breast-pang, was
due to the disturbance of Ms nervous
system reused by the continual visits
of street bands and organ-grinders.

Hear the APOLLO Play!
judge it critically for yourself!!
T
HE new Apollo Player Piano is a marvel of
player construction. Play it yourself see if
you can tell the playing of the Apollo from that of a finished
musician. Then try any other player piaino, and yon -will find the
difference caused largely by these improvements which are
found only on the Apollo: -
The natnral touch, downward on the keys ; the solotneme, which accents
the melody or theme, and subdues the accompaniment or allows you to omit
the melody altogether; the tempo-graph, insuring artistic interpretation of the
most classical music; tbe metronome motor, giving perfect time and so me
chanically perfect that it will automatically rewind the longest roll without
pedaling; and the transposer, which enables you to transpose a composition
into eight different keys. "

fact that the Solo Apollo is radically different from any other
