PHONOGRAPH PARLORS.
Addition of Another of Edison's
Wonders.

Mr.. G. SToEcKLE, a gentleman well
known not alone to the residents oil
Honolulu, but to those of Hawaii, Maui
and Kauai, in connection with his intro
duc.ion to the notice of the general pub
lie of Professor EDIsoN's marvel oil
science, the PHoNoGRAPH, or "talking
machine" has again returned to this
city from an extended inter-island trip,
and has located himself permanently at
the PHoNoGRAPH PARLoRs, ARLINGTON
BLOCK. HOTEL STREET.
Mr.. SToEcKLE has been in correspon
dence with Professor Edison, through
one of the Professors special representa-
tives, and has been thus enabled to
obtain latest scientific production and
improved Photograph which has arrived,
and is now open to inspection and trial
by the general public at the PHoNoGRAPH
PARLoRs, Arlington Block, Hotel street.
This new scientific production and
machine is called the AUTOMATIC PHoNo-
GRAPH, working as it does automatically,
by electrical agency, generated by the
action of any person DESTROYS of testing
its peculiar qualities, the manner of test
being easily understood on visiting the
lately fitted up PHoNoGRAPH PARLoRs,
Arlington Block, Hotel street.
The AUTOMATIC PHoNOGRAPH is another
triumph of science, is the latest i'm
proved talking machine" manufactured
by the electrical wizard, Edison, and is
supplied with newly invented and lately
patented double diaphragms, thus add
ing not alone to the loudness of the re-
productions from the records, but also
presenting in a most remarkably clear
and distinct manner all the modulations
of the human voice, both in song and
speech, and which may be heard from
the machine at the PHoNoGRAPH PAR
LoRs, Arlington Block, Hotel street.
The AUTOMATIC PHoNoeRAPH is encased
in an oaken frame, with glass top and
sides, thus permitting the visitor to see
all of the delicate machinery in full play.
The wonderful, scientific appliance of
mechanical skill displayed in the regula
ton of the speed of reproduction of the
various records, the automatic start,
speeding and final stop are plainly visi-
BILE, and, more than that, the wonderful
reproductive powers of the automatic
machine may be learned on each cali at
the PHoNoGRAPH PARLoRs, Arlington
Block, Hotel street.
Full test is given to the power of the
AUTOMATIC MACHINE by the continual
changing of records, so that solo, duet,
trio, quartette, quintette and sextette
vocalisms by instrumental music of cele-
brated bands and noted soloists will be
interspersed with humorous speeches,
dialogues and specialties, the particular
selections being displayed daily on the
AUTOMATIC MACHINE at the PHoNoGRAPH
PARLoRs, Arlington Block, Hotel street.
For the initial piece on the AUTOMATIC
PHoNoGRAPH, Mr.. Stoeckle has selected
from his accumulation of nearly two
hundred new records, which include
songs of all nations, and the best efforts
of the most celebrated musical celebri
ties in the world-a selection which has
never heretofore been reproduced outside
of the home of the photograph, and one
which gives full opportunity to judge of
the wonderful natural sound-reproducing
qualities of this latest improved Auto
matte Machine. The opportunity now
presents itself to hear this particular
number by trial of the Edisonian in
vention now on exhibition at the PHoNo-
GRAPH PARLoRs, Arlington Block, Hotel
street.
The PHoNoGRAPH PARLoRs ara open
daily from 9 AM, and opportunity is
given to visitors to select from q thousand
records, which will be reproduced at re-
quest on the non-automatic machine also
on exhibition, and in use, at the PHoNo-
GRAPH PARLoRs, Arlington Block, Hotel
street. 3549-1w 1t-w
