Beatty's Pianos and Organs.

Hon Daniel F Beatty, the great organ
and Piano manufacturer, is building and
shipping more organs and pianos than
ever In 1870 Mr.. Beatty left home a
penniless pillow boy and by his indomta-
BILE will he has worked his way up so as
to sell so far, nearly 100000 of Bcatty's
organs and pianos since 1870. Nothing
seems to dishearten him; obstacles laid in
his way, that would have wrecked any
ordinary man forever, he turns to, an adj
vertisement comes out of it brighter than
ever, His instruments, as is well known,
are very popular and are to be found in
all parts of the world. we are informed
that during the next ten years he intends
to sell 100000, more of his make, that
means a business of 800, COO 900 if we av-
crage them at 500 each. 1t is already
the largest business of the kind in exist
ence-Send to Daniel f Beatty, washing

we ever witnessed took place this
morning in the Idaho Commercial
Cos, bank between Devers and Ben
Warrington, with Bill Sommercamp
and ourself as audience. The SIGNAL
was backing Ben while Bill seconded
Pat. 1t was an exciting contest.
First Pat would get the best of Ben a
couple of H-a-w H-a-w-s- and Bill
would excitedly slap down a twenty
and 90 us 2 to l on his principal.
Then Ben would take squirt and get
way in the lead and we would shake
the entire contents of the strong box
in Bills face 1t finally ended in a
draw. LATER: 1t has come out
that Pat had a Caldwell Tribune i'll
his pocket. But for this talisman
he would have been badly beaten.
