Pianos! Organs!

The improved method of fastening strings
of Pianos, invented by US, is one of the
most important improve ments ever made,
making the instrument more richly must
cal in tone, more durable and less liable to
get out of tune.
Both the Mason & Hamlin Organs and
Pianos excel chiefly in that which is the
ceief excellence in any musical instrument,
quality of tone. Other things, though i'm
portaut, are much less so than this An
instrument with unmusical tones cannot
be good. Illustrated catalogue of new
styles, introduced this season, sent free.

Much Cab, Talk and Resolutions and but
Little Done.
LAKE MOHAWK, June Cat the opening
of the morning session of the negro con-
ference, President Gates, chairman of the
executive committee, presented seriesO of
resolutions embodying results reached
after various discussions of the conference.
The resolutions urge education as the key
note of the situation-education the nor
NAL and industrial uplifting of home and
family, developing true manhood and
womanhood. Judge Tourgee made the
opening speech of the session, the negro's
view of the race, taking occasion to present
resolutions much more radical than those
of the committee a,s---
He was followed by Andrew D. White
who said he believed in the peaceful solu-
ton of the race problem and incidentally
regretted the defeat of the Blair bill.
John Glenn of Baltimore said the sessions
of this conference convinced him that If
Northern and Southern men would confer
together as they had here there would be
little difficulty in reaching probable and
wise solution of threatening trouble.
Gen. Brinkerhoff of Ohio spoke on the
question from the standpoint Of the white
of the south Other speakers were Gen. o..
O. Howard of New York, and Mrs. Edna H.
Dean Chenty of Boston. Bishop Andrews
of New York closed the morning session
with an encouraging report of the Metho-
dist church in the south.
