W. W, KIMBALL CO.
lometblnK of Its History, Location and
Output.
For the bene fit of thoee, if there be
any, who have not heard of the great
Kimball Co. and the unprecedent fame
of the Kimball piano, I will etate a few
facts in regard to its history, location
and output, which I trust will prove of
interest ae well as benefit to persona in
terested in the purchase of an instru
ment. As far back as in the purchase
of fifties Mr. W. W. Kimball, the head
. of the Kimball Co., began selling organs
made in the east at Chicago. "A few
years later, recognizing Chicago's natur
al advantages over the east as a manu
facturing center.with all the requisite
materials at her very door, and her great
geographical advantages as a distribut
ing point, giving the Chicago manufact
urer a two fold saving of the freight on
the raw material east and on the manu
factured article west, Mr. Kimbill began
making organs himself. By exercising
strict economy in every branch and
shrewd business management which has
' characterized his business career, his
business grew and the manufacture of
Kimball organs increased. He was
burned out during the great Chicago
fire, but was fortunately insured, and
immediately converted his stable into a
factory and continued manufacturing
organs pending the erection of a new
factory on the west side. This business
continued to increase; new additions
were built; a corporation with Mr. Kim
ball, or the governor, as he was familiar
ly called by the employes, as president,
was organized; a few years later, with
bis usual keen insight and business sa
gacity, he erected another factory and
began the manufacture of the Kimball
piano. The Kimball factories (piano
and organ) today consists of four five
story factories with a frontage of 140 feet
each and a depth of 130 feet and have a
floor space of over 11 acres, with -a ca
pacity of 30 pianos and 60 organs per
day. The Kimball piano and organ is
sold in every civilized country on the
globe, with large depots in Liverpool,
London, Melbourne, etc. Its rapid
growth in popularity and use and in
dorsement by all leading musicians of
of the worjd has dazzled all rivals, un
til today it is in the front ranks an com
petitors stand aghast and ask each other
how it happened and what can be done
to stop this Kimball in its onward
march. Why, only last February the
Music Trades of New York, gave the fol
lowing item under date of February 2nd,
viz :
"Music Trades has known for some
months past that the W. V. Kimball
Co. of Chicago, had incorporated in New
York state with a 'capital of $000,000.
but as tho whole plan haa not been de
finicely decided upon, it was deemed
better to keep the news for a while.
"I am enabled now to state the W. W.
.Kimball Co. have come east to stay and
to make a big bid for the eastern trade,
and especially for the trade in rich cen
tral New York." Think of it, fGOO.OOO
in one state. The Kimball warerooms
and Kimball concert hall in Chicago
Alone cost $500,000. President Kimball
Jives in a $500,000 residence on Prairie
avenue. The -company represents a
capital of several millions which is ex
ceeded by only a few of the largest banks
in the United States.
Do you think with these facts before
you that you would make a mistake in
buying a Kimball piano or organ? Do
you think the Kimball Co.'a warranty
is good? Not to know the Kimball
Co. and its instruments is pardonable in
the laity, but is utterly inexcusable in
any one in the music profession, and if
they don't know the Kimball, it is be
cause they are not posted or have some
interest in not knowing it. In conclu
sion I will state I make this statement
to protect the public against any mis
representations which interested deal
ers, may undertake to make 'regarding
the Kimball Co. and its business and
goods, and hope these remarks may
help to guide a generons public in its
selection of a reliable instrument.
We have a few pianos left. If you in
tend to take advantage of the special
prices we are offering at this special sale,
call at the old Chronicle building at
once, as these instruments are going to
be sold or shipped, and that might be
Boon. L. V. Moore. s

Newsy Letter from Antelope.
To tSk Editor : E. M. Wingate spent
Sunday on Trout creek, we presume
fishing.
Miss May Miller, who has been visit
ing her uncle, Thomas Harper, at Ante
lope, returned to . her home in The
Dalles Monday.
Nate Eaird and Lem Axe had their
camping outfit, blankets, saddles, bridles
and a pair of shoes, burned by their
camp fire while fishing last -Saturday on
John Day. -
Rev. Hinton, Baptist minister from
Grass Valley, preached an able sermon
to a well-filled ' house Monday night.
Mr. Hinton talks of establishing a Bap
tist mission at Antelope.
Mr. and Mrs. Rodgers, who have been
on the sick list for some time, are slowly
recovering.
At a meeting of the school directors
Monday night it was decided to open the
Antelope public school August 12th for
a ten-month term, with Prof. G. H.
Dunn as principal and Miss Lillie Hin
ton as assistant. -
Considerable interest is felt in regard
to the outcome of the debate between
Rev. Moore of Mitchell and Katie Kem
Smith, of the First Secular church of
Portland on the inspiration of the Bible.
Mrs. Smith is an eloquent speaker.
Great preparations were made for cel
ebrating the Fourth and a large crowd
was in town. A large platform had
been made and beautifully decorated, an
orchestra and choir secured, and just as
the forty-two girls in white the goddess
of liberty were marching '.to their posi
tions, a shower came up. The cry was
soon raised "To the schoolhouse!" and
about 1200 soon found shelter, the larg
est crowd ever in any one building in
Antelope. The exercises were then con
tinued without interruption. It takes
something worse a Kansas cyclone to
interfere with a celebration at Antelope.
Some fun-loving youngster decorated
the ice cream stand that bad been erect
ed for (he benefit of the minister, with
signs from the merchants' stores, as
"Fresh Butter," "German Insurance,"
"Selling at Cost," etc. Owing to the
damp, cool day, the stand and merry-go-round
were not very extensive patron
ized. The dance at night was a grand
success, and the supper under the man
agement of Mrs. Patterson, was just
elegant. There was a public basket
picnic dinner, but a great many of the
people preferred to take dinner at home
or with friends. Mrs. C. V. Lane de
serves great credit for the tasteful man
ner in which she arranged the forty-two
little girls representing the states. Mrs.
Hattie Stocker read the Declaration of
Independence in a very pleasing man
ner.
Mr. Richard Hinton and wife of Bake
oven celebrated the Fourth at Antelope.
Miss Lillie Hinton went to The Dalles
to celebrate.
Thos. Harper christened his new resi
dence by eating his Fourth of July din
ner in it. Mr. Harper has the finest
residence in Antelope; one that is a
credit to the town, the owner and the
builder, Mr. Jack Harper, of The Dalles.
Mr. Eddie Glisan delivered the Fourth
of July oration in a very able and patri
otic manner.
A public wedding was held as part of
the exercises, in which Billy Wilson of
Antelope and Miss Laura Bills of John
Day were united in the holy bonds of
matrimony. Their many friends wish
them much happiness and success
through life. Hornettk.

About Happenings in niosler
7felgh.borh.ood.
Mr. Frank LaPier, who was hurt last
Monday by a horse he waa driving in a
cart, is getting along nicely. He had
one arm broken and was severely kicked
in the breast. Hia wife was hurt badly
by the same horse about a month ago.
Miss Kozella Root was thrown from a
horse and fell on a wire fence. A small
cut on the arm was all the injury .she
received.
Mr. and Mrs. Ed Phillips, Mr. and
Mrs. Chrrlie Phillips and Mrs. Frank
Hunter were passengers on the Regu
lator for Portland last Wednesday.
They went down to celebrate.
The picnic here was rained out. Mrs.
Hardwick being sick, they had no dance
and all that was going on was an evening
social at the residence of Mr. Carrol and
owing to the inclemency of the weather
there were but a few there, but those
that were present report a good time.
We are glad to report Mrs. Hardwick
better.
Mr. Carrol dug a well on his place this
week." He had to go fifty feet, but baa
plenty of water.
Rev. Thos. Gregory preached -here on
the fifth Sunday of June, at the regular
hours. It was not his time, but he
wants to get off in July so he preached
then.
On Saturday nearly everybody went to
The Dalles to "see the elephant."
Miss Dolhe Mosier's school is out and
she is.with us again. C.M.J.
The constitution that has been broken
down or weakened by long standing dis
orders in the liver and kidneys, is ill
fitted to withstand the encroachment of
disease. Such a person takes cold easily,
cannot stand fatigue, and in cases of epi
demics, is the first to fall a victim. The
proper cource is to remove the cause of
weakness by treating the liver and kid
neys. Dr. J. H. McLean, s Liver and
Kidney Balm will reach the eeat of
trouble and restore the diseased organs
to healthy functional activity. Increased
nourishment of the body will follow and
the patient will rapidly . regain health
and strength. Price $1.00 per bottle.

Surrounded by Spaniards.
New York, July, 8. A special to the
Herald from Santiago' de Cuba says:
- General AntoniaMaceo is now, accord
ing to reports from Spanish sources,

manganguaz, threatened on one side
by the forces of . the Spanish General
Gaeco and on the other by the Spanish
columns of Navarro.
There is more Catarrh in this section
of the country than all other diseases
put' "together, and until the last few
years was supposed to be incurable.
For a great many years doctors pro
nounced it a local disease, and prescrib
ed local remedies, and by constantly
failing to cure with local treatment, pro
nounced it incurable. Science has
proven catarrh to be a constitutional
disease and therefore requires constitu
tional treatment. Hall's Catarrh Cure,
manufactured by F. J; Cheney & Co.,
Toledo, Ohio, is the only constitutional
cure on the market. It is taken infer
nally in doses from 10 drops to a tea
spoonful. It acts directly on the blood
mucous surfaces of the system. They
offer one hundred dollars for any case it
fails to cure. Send for circulars and tes
timonials. Address.
