Kimbal's Methods Menace to the
Entire Trade.
[Chicaeo Musical Neva.I

(Chicago Musical News.I
The following advertisement has been
given prominent position in the daily
papers of Washington, D. c.. and has
been printed in the Chicago Musical
News and the American Hebrew News,
of Portland. We desire to call the atten-.
ton of the public to it.
The unfairness of the assertions it con-
tains needs no emphasizing, for they
will appear at once to the sense of right
inherent in every legitimate dealer in
pianos all over the country:
Next Tuesday will be a special bar
gain day on pianos at our store. We
have found some grand bargains in new
Upright Pianos (not the celebrated Kim
ball pianos), and propose to give the
public chance to secure new pianos
next Tuesday at manufacturers whole
sale prices.
The prices Tuesday next for these new
elegant Upright pianos will be only $149
and $3.50 each. Part time given if de-
sired. These pianos will be on exhibit
at our store all day Monday, but no sales
will be made from this lot until Tuesday,
and will continue that day only.
w. w. KIMBALL, Co.,
Metzerott Building, Cor. 18th and F. SITS.
The Kimball Company may regard
such methods as fair and honora BILE, but
they are open to the severest criticism in
attempting to destroy the piano trade in
Washington after many years of honor
able work to promote it.
The unfairness of the card lies in the
assertion that the pianos which are to
be sold at sacrifcial prices are not made
by the Kimball company. Therein is
the poison.
This whole scheme is perpetratr1 to
give the Kimball pianos position to
which their merits do not entitle them.
Although the Kimball advertisement de-
clares these are not Kimball pianos
which are to be slaughtered it does not
enhance the value of their own instru-
ments.
| Those who are familiar with the Kim
ball pianos know perfectly well that the
makers can afford to sell them at just
such ruinous prices as are quoted for
other instruments in their possession at
Washington.
What is there in the Kimball piano to
justify this step? Nothing.
The KimbaH company make one of the
cheapest pianos in the United States.
And after the Kimball piano is made
ready for the market it is not then worth
place above low rank.
When you come to think of 1t, can you
name any genuine, JfrstcIass house that is
selling the Kim6aH pianos?
The Kimball managers may consider
they have made brilliant stroke, but
they are merely using gigantic power to
foist cheap make on The market.
The question is also one of broader
conception than mere local purview.
Such advertisements as these cut at the
root of the piano industry for they mis-
lead private buyers.
We shall not let this subject stop here.
1t is fraught with grave danger to the
entire trade, and, although the Kimball
company is composed of schrewd schem-
ers, they may find they have far over
stepped the bounds of legitimate bust
ness dealing.

which is the standard required by both
the United States and English govern
ments. A series of tests of a depres-
sion position-fnder, invented by Lieut..
j. N. Lewis, Of the Second artillery,
which, however, is only available for
high elevations, was made with very
satisfactory results.
The board said the Fislxe position
finder would solve satisfactorily what
has been a very difficult problem in
completing the utility of the disappear
ance gun. As the gunner cannot see
the enemy, Il is necessary that the
range and direction be taken at some
other point, and in the case of n moving
object, such as ship,as accurately and
instantaneously conveyed to the gunner
at the moment Of firing.
The FislSe position-Hnder consists of
two telescopes erected some distance
apart and connected by wires with
each other and with an electric battery
and galvanometer. The whole forms
what is known in electricity as a
Whcatstone bridge. When the tele-
scopes are parallel the needle in the
galvanometer points 10 infnity. As
the telescopes ara conyerged &c as 70
be conferred on AN object the needle
travels around graduated dial until it
indicates thereon the exact distance Of
that object. This gives the range.
But the concealed gunner must also
know the direction in which 90 point
his gun. AZ one of the instruments is
"A chart of the harbor upon which, con-
nected with the telescope, are two
pointers. These travel automatically
and follow tho direction on the chart
in which the instrument is pointed
When the range is determined a pencil
connected with the pointers shows the
exact position of the target on the
chart. This Is telephoned TO the
gunner, and he has only TO direct his
gun 10 the point Of the compass desig-
mated.
When the target is moving ship her
speed is estimated and tho man in
charge OF the position-fnder then pre-
diets at what point she will be thirty
seconds later. The gun is aimed, and
Mt the expiration of thirty seconds IL
leaps above the parapet, is discharged,

Baron NordcnslSjold has shown prac-
tically that water can be found by Dor
ing into granite and other crystalline
rocks to depth of from 100 to 40 feet
His theory was that tho variations in
temperature ought 60 cause shcaring
strains between the upper and lower
layers Of the rock, which would make
horizontal crevices into which water
from the surface would make horizontal
crcviccs into which water from the
surface would percolatc. and that the
water would be fresh. A well was sunk
In the islct OF Arlxo, Oft the Swedish
coast, in 1894, and at 10 feet fresh wa
ter was found, supplying 4,400 gallons
a day; since then six other wells have
been bored and water found at about
the same depth. The object of the
search was TO provide lighthouses and
pilot stations with a permanent and
plentiful supply Of water.

Two temporary coming towers had

In these the board met for the tests.
In each tower one of the telescopes Of

About ten o'clock the first OBSERVE

directed upon the lighthouse on Nor
toms point, known distance. The
needle on the position-hnder's galvano-

In fact, to the necessary and natural

from which keeps the air in a suitably

feat, however, is very simple. and may
easily be accomplished.
The first thing is TO inserta needle in
a cork SO that the point barely comes
through. If the larger end of the needle
projects at the upper end of the cork,
snap II off with pair of shears, so that
it may be flush with the surface of the
cork.
Place nickel upon two blocks Of
wood, as shown in the cork, and put the
cork on II, with the sharp end of the
needle down, of course. Give the cork
a quick, sharp blow with the ham
mer, and the needle, being unable to
bend owing to the support given IL by
the cork, will easily go through tho
