The. only Upright Piano which will remain
permanently in tune.
" THE MATHUSHEK
UPRIGHT PIANOS,

In this particular, are made with a. thick iron
plate drilled to receive wooden bushings nj
which the tuning pins are placed; thus the
iron pins are held directly in the tuning plate
and cannot move by any change in, the wood
work.
From the tuning pin the string passes
through u strong brass agraffe screwed into
the iron plate, thence across the sounding
board bridge, and is fastened to a pin at the
other end OF tile iron plate, thus producing the
MOST SOLID and STRONGEST PIANO
EVER MADE.
In tone. touch, workmanship and general
finish, the Mathushek Upright cannot be ex-
celled, aud is now rapidly coming into use,
and its popularity constantly increases. We
will be very much obliged if you will call and
examine these pianos. We also take old pianos
in exchange at fair value. F.b.. 7

Annie Louise Cary's Fathers Famtl

from the Lewiston tMal JournAl1
DR.. Nelson Il. Cary moved to Durham,
Me-. about 35 years ago. Of his remark abb
family, made famous the world over by An
ME Louise, we will speak in detail they are
all personally remembered by our inform an i.
Joseph his oldest son, was fine bass singer.
He married Flora Barry a famous opera sing
or, who has visited Lewiston several times.
He has been divorced from her within few
years. William, the next son, was also
good singer. Both these boys were grown up
when they moved to Durham. The next
younger child was Marcia, now Mrs. J. c.
Merrill, of Portland. When the children
went to singing school together, and were in
structed by Joe Tyler and his fiddle, Marcia
was called the best singer in the town, and
was supposed to possess a richer voice than
her younger sister Annie. The next daughter
was Ellen. She was the only soprano singer
in the family, and had an unusually good
voice. She is now the wife of Copgrega-
tional minister Then came Samuel, who was
good bass singer. He is now in the cloth
ing business in New York. The next and
youngest child by his first wife was Annie
Louise ''I've slid down hill with her many
q time" says the Durham historian. Annie
Louise will always be remembered as a r0mp
in her youth While still young, she went to
Boston, and her musical education was begun
under the care of her brother. After Annie's
mother died, DR.. Cary took a second wife,
who presented him with Ada, the youngest |
of the family. She refused musical advan- |
tages and fell in love. The match proved an |
unhappy one. Her husband and she lived |
apart, and she is educating several young
children. She recently has sung on numer-
Gus occasions in public. She has already be- |
come popular, and bids fair to become star. |
She now attempts nothing but songs and |
ballads. She will probably take a musical /
and make the stage her profession. |
The natural quality of her voice is said to be |
equal to Annie's. Concerts by the Cary |
family were frequently given in Durham, and |
were invariably attended by large audiences. |
The old doctor was a noted bass singer. |
When the Cary family came to Durham they |
created great increase in the musical in |
terest of the town. Durham was then at the |
pinnacle of musical fame.

Pardoned for Ali His Sins-Last Scene In
lIurderer's Career.
ATLANTA, June Middle Georgia has
been excited over the execution of two young
white men in Carroll county for the commits
sion of two brutal murders. In July last
James E. Harvey, without provocation,
stabbed and killed Arthur McMulIen. In
January, 1881, William L. Moon brutally
shot John Ward with shotgun bought. for
the purpose. All the parties were white.
Harvey and Moon were tried, convicted and
sentenced to be hanged on the I'd of June.
Every preparation was made for the double
execution, which was to be public. The gal
lows was erected between two hills, so that
the morbid sightseers could stand tier above
tier and see the execution. Friday morning
Moon poisoned himself by mixing match
heads in some Imminent and swallowing it.
He was given respite of twenty-four hours
by Governor Colquitt. Harvey was execut-
ed at ten minutes past one and died without
struggle. Moon was restored to conscious
neSs at two O'Clock, and the Governor ordered
that his execution take place yesterday be-
tween the usual hours. During Friday and
Saturday the excitement was intense, but as
Saturday wore on the desire to see the sec
ond execution waned and only about five
hundred people surrounded the gi5bet. One
of the local ministers made statement for
Moon to the effect that he had received par
don for all his sins. 1.-The crowd then sang
the old familiar hymn, "Jesus, Lover of My
Soul" and Moon babe those on the scaffold
good bye" The cap was adjusted, aud at
precisely twenty minutes to one Moon was
dropped seven feet, and after few struggles
died. The execution of these two white men
arouses hope that the gallows is not to be
alone for the black man in Georgia.

Wednesday evening, June Z, the mapagera
of the Young Women's Christian association
will hold reception to increase their small
library. Invitations, personally and by card,
have beeh given as far as possible, and any
whom we have failed to reach are now cor
daily invited to the rooms, corner of Chapel
and Union streets, between the hours of
half past seven and ten. The condition of ad-
mission is book, not necessarily new, though
fossilized literature we do not wish, but
something interesting. entertaining or instruo-
tive. We have sat of Waverly novels, and
if anyone would like to give us set of a
standard author the donor MAJ be confident
of finding US grateful Perhaps some will
take the trouble to unite their gifts and form
sets or parts of sets.
By way of suggestion we will mention Mrs
Whitney's earlier stories. and Mrs GaskelPs
Mira. CYaik's, Mrs. Alfred Gatty's, in fact any
healthy book or books history, biography
fiction, poetry.
The value of this part of our work cannot
be too highly rated. ANY thoughtful person
will realize the moral influence secured in
having good reading to offer those whose
Uniformed taste is apt to seize upon sensa-

of living and false, If not absolutely evil,
standards of character. We therefore ask a
general and generous response to this appeal
