srA7TY's PIANOS AND ORGANS.

Hon. Daniel f. Beatty, the great
Organ and Piano man of Washing
ton, N. j., is buster than ever. In
1870 Mr.. Beatty left home a penni-
less plow boy, and by his indomita-
BILE will he has worked his way up
so as to sell so far nearly 100000 of
Beatty's Pianos and Organs since
1870. Nothing seems to dishearten
him; obstacles LAID in his way, that
would have wrecked any ordinary
man forever, he turns to an adver-
tisement and comes out of it brighter
than ever. His instruments are in
use everywhere. We are informed
that during the next ten years he in
tends TO sell 100000 more Of his
make; that means business of $780,
100000 if we average them at 500
each. 1t is already the largest bust
ness of its kind in existence. Read
his advertisement.

that Judge O'Brien's resignation was
a conditional one, to be delivered to
the department in case he received
the nomination for district judge at
his home in Minnesota This is a
mistake, as the judge sent in his res,

filed before the nomination in Min
