Music trades have known for some months past that the W. W. Kimball Co., of Chicago, had incorporated in New York state with a capital of $000,000, but as the-whole plan had not been definitely decided upon, it was deemed better to krep the naws 'for a! while. I aim enabled now 'no state that the W. W. Kimball Co. have come east to Stay, and to make a big 'bid for ithe eastern trade, and especially for the. trade in rich central New York. Muslc Trades, New York, February 2, 1895. This Is only a side Issue with the great Kimball Co., which evidences its push, energy and financial success. They S:t aside $000,000 for (New York state alone, while numerous Biwatl fry whose entire capital Is only J10.000, $20,000 or j0,000, make a great stir, send out "flaming circulars" and showy catalogues, claim ing to be Uhe biggest people on earth in the piano business and threatening dire ca'.amity to an,w iwho may come in their way. It s the same old story of the lit tle bull who defied 'the locomotive the locomotive passed on and 'the little bull was heard of no more. Thus does the great Kimball Co. pursue the even tenor of Its way, attending etrlctly to its own busness unmindful of the railings and ye'.ps of all small ifry following in its wake. The Kimball piano and organ have merit and are eoM strictly on their merits. Until within the past few years the sale of the KI'mlbaJl pianos and organs has been confined principally to the mid dle, southern and western states, but their sale has since been pushed into the far east where over 300 dealers are now handling theim with unparalleled success In the iface of the so-cailled o'd-time man ufacturers of New England, and the com pany by this last move is bearding ithe lon 1a his den. The sale of the Kimball Is not confined to one county or state, 'but has the world for Its market. Km'ball pianos and organs are modern Instruments, possessing all the latest Im provements, and are up to date in every respect, and are used and endorsed by a'.l the leading musicians of the day, while certain so-called old line munu facturers, being aeCfatlslied with their own , egotism and conceit, have become antiquated and are relegated. You want a modem piano or organ, not an an tiquity. For tunther evidence of the great su periority of the Kimball in point of tone, touch, material and construction, you have but to call and see arid examine the carloads of these cetebratvd Instru ments now on sale. Respectfully, L. V. MOORE, Pacific Coast Representative. ' PERSONAL MENTION. J. C. Hill, of Vancouver, Wash,, is reg istered at ithe Parker House.

The owners of the 'Montilcello had announced that she was intended to run to VeUejo in opposl tlon to the steamer iSumoO, and the South' ern Pacific.

During the electiricul storm, which, was so severe in and about this city last evening, a west bound train on the (Mlddletown & Cincin nati railroad had a peculiar experience at Monroe, just east of here, The train and the storm seemed to collide about the time Ithe station was reached, and for a space of several minutes t'tife engine and cars seemed to have been transformed Into balls of fire. The lightning played all over the en gine and along the tops and sides of the cars, little tongues of flame earning to leap from one thousand different p'.aces. The passengers' were badlly frigh tened, but no One was hurt, with the exception of M1ss Jewel Palmer, of this city.

Then tlhey were arrested by the United States marshal there and held in 'the Jail until the ship was ready to leave port, when they wepa returned to her. As they still refused to work the ship put In here and they were re-arrested. BULLS CAN COME. Washington, July 25.-The treasury de partment has declined to entertain a pro test by the vice-president of the humane society against the entry into the United Statea of bulls and torreadors from Mex ico fo.- bull fighting exhibitions at the AtCarKia, Exposition. The secretary is asked that the buKs be excluded on the ground that they are Immoral instru ments and the torreadors that their ad mission would violate the eontract labor law. ' " '!"'' ' Assistant Secretary Hamlfcie lif' reply cites Section 10 of the. act of 1891, pro hibiting the Importation o "any obscene book, pamphlet, drawing, painting, lnstru ment, or any other articles of immoral nature." The letter then proceeds: "If, as stated, the exhibition of bull fighting is prohibited by the laws of Georgia, it la 'expected that the authorities of the state wOil prevent It, but the subject does not oppear to come within the Jurisdiction of the department." THE CAPTAIN'S ACCOUNT. Breakwater, JuQy 26. The schooner Car rie A. Lane, which arrived here last night and reported having een fired on by a Spanish warship, is still anchored eff the breakwater. Captain F. W. Quick, commander of the schooner, seems to be disposed to treat the matter lightly. He said: "The Lane cleared from Clerrfugos, which is on the south side of Cuba, on July 11. At J o'clock on the morning of the 18th a steamer flying the Spanish flag anchored near and fired a shot across her bows. . The Lane was then a mile and a half from shore and of course within Spanish waters. We did not stop at the first shot. Thereupon, the Spaniards fired a setond shot, which passed about twenty feet in tront of our bow and struck the water beyond. Wo then lost no time In heaving to. They then search ed the vessel and finding no contraband goods allowed us to go."..,. GOVERNMENT IMPROVEMENTS. Washington, July 26.

San Francisco, July 25. Cholera is rag img in Japan, and nearly every province In the little empire reports a heavy death rate from- the disease. Officers and pas sengers of the City of Pekln tell of deaths from cholera in the streets of cities where the steamer called, from this disease. 'Until the steamer Bailee from Yokohama 1183 deaths had been re ported. The disease was brought to Jap an by -the forces returning from the war in China and Corea, and whenever s retgiment was sent horns and disbanded eases of cholera .began- to develop, and 'the disease spread with such rapidity thai the physicians were unable to keep it in check.

A number of young women struggled with Other curiosity seekers to obtain admission to the trlul. ORDER WILL BE MAINTAINED. Washington, July 26. Apprehension of serious trouble on the Isthmus of Pan ama, owing to Uhe strike of railway em ployes, was considerably relieved by the receipt of a telegram today from United States Consul General Vlfqualn, of Pana ma. stating that the governors of the Province of, Panama had assured the consul general of his ability to main tain order there. It is therefore proba ble that a warship will not be de spatched to ithe isthmus unless affairs tssirme a more threatening aspect than they have at present. THE ATLANTA WILL REMAIN.

Very Respectfully Yours, R. L. BOYLE & CO. NORDIC'A'S GREAT SUCCESS. The 'American Singer Creates a Great Sensaitloo In Bulbyreuth as "Elsa." ' The magnificent presentation 'of "Lohengrin" at Babyreuth last Friday was doubly marked, because it was the first time "Lohengrin" was ever brought out at then Wagnerian festivals, and. second, because of ithe appearance of Lillian Nonllca, the soprano, in the role of Blsa, the first time an American slng-.r has ever been Invited to partici pate. Nordlca's success was marked. The cable dispatches said:' "Her performance was ths .first artistic contribution that America has made for the success of these festivals, and her work today gave the Americans present every reason -to be proud of her. No native singer evur achieved a more pro nounced triumph than did Mme. Nordica, the first foreign singer to appear in so important a part as Elsa." It is interesting to know that Nordica's preliminary rehearsing was to the ac companiment f a Chicago made piano. In a recent letter to a friend she wrote as follows: "I do all my studying on my Kimball piano and the longer I use It the better I like it."-Chicago Tribune, June 28. Clatsop Beacf?
