The new organ for Talmage's Tabernacle
is rapidly approaching completion. The
first organ for the Tabernacle was built in
1873, and at the time was one of the largest
and most complete in the country. II was
destroyed with the Tabernacle in 1889.
The new organ is much larger and more
complete in all its details, and one of the
most powerful in the world and veritable
king of instruments. 1t will contain
four manuals of five octaves each, pedal
of two and a half octavos, the largest OF
which will be the deep G, c, G, G, 32 foot
cathedral tone, the same as in the large
organ in Westminster Abbey. 1t contains
more large stops than any other organ in
the country, if not the world, there being II
stops of l6 feet and 80 of s feet The entire
number of stops is 10, of which 66 are pipe
stops running through the entire scale; the
re >are couplers, pneumatic combinations,
tremulants and pedal movements The
total number of pipes is 4,44S and the cost
over $4,000
The case is the open style, showing a
facade of 40 feet wide and 50 feet high of
richly ornamented pipes. The console will
be brought out 10 feet in front of the organ,
and the wind supplied by three immense
bellows, driven by powerful electric
motor on an Edison circuit.
Among the novelties of this organ will
be Chinese gong" a chime of bells and
three drum effects as follows: Long roll,
bass drum and drum check. Many Of the
stops are entirely new in this country and
some are original with the builders. A
new feature is tho inclosing of the choir
organ in a seperate swell box, which, with
the swell organ, will enable the organist to
give very powerful and effective swell ac-
compartments. It is to be completed by
September next, when the Tabernacle is to
be ready for its reception.-New York
