Kimbau's Methods Menace te the
Entire Trade.
[chicago Musical News. ]


[Chicago Musical News.l
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-
tion 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 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 eecure 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. KINBALL, Co.,
Metzerott Building, Cor. 18th and F. SITS.
The Kimball Company may regard
such methods as fair and honorable, 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 unfairnees of the card lies in the
assertion that the pianos which are to
be sold at sacri6cial prices are not made
by the Kimball company. Therein is
the poison.
This whole scheme is perpetrated 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 step7 Nothing.
The Kimball 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, yfrstcLdes house that Is
selling the KimbaH pianoSP
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 a 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.
It is fraught with grave danger to the
entire trade, and, although the Kimhall
company is COMPOSED of schrewd schem-
ers, they may find they have far over
stepped the bounds of legitimate busi
ness dealing.

WHAT ANIMALS ARE TAUGHT.
Intelligent Trainers Instruct Them In
Movements Natural to Them.

A celebrated trainer says: "Animals
are never forced to execute, at the COM
mand and will of the intelligent trainer,
any movements which are not natural
to them in free state" Monkeys love
to swing in the tropical creepers, there
fore they are placed on trapese; goats
-seek pointed rocks, hence they are nat
ural equilibrists; dogs instinctively rise
on their hind legs; so they are taught to
maintain themselves in that position.
A trainer is guided by the forces of fear,
devotion, hunger and habit. Watch for
these points when you see the Great
Wallace Shows.

GENERAL GRANT.
How Near His Personal Memoirs
Came to be Lost.

A Valuable History Written by q Dying
Man. Proper Nourishment Enabled
the Author to Live Until the Compile
ton of His Book.
The fortitude shown by General Grant
in writing the second volume of his per-
sonal memoirs while he was literally on
his deathbed, excels even the remarkable
courage exhibited by this famous soldier
in his many achievements on the field of
battle.
Col Fred Grant, speaking of his fathers
last illness, says:-
"During the last four months of his
sickness, the principal food of my father,
Gen. Grant, was Bovinine and milk; and
it was the use of this Incompatible food
alone that enabled him to finish the second
volume of his personal memoirs
DIR. L. II. Douglas, Gen. Grants physi-
clan and friend, cordially indorsed the
above statement.
What Bovinine did for Gen. Grant it
has done, and is now doing, for thousands
every day. 1t is the most wonderful con-
ccntration into a small bulk of all the
Iife-giving, muscle, flesh, and blood-mak-
inc clements of lean, raw meat ever pro-
duced.
1t is in no way a medicine, simply a
fool invigorant, that by its strengthening
qualities gives the worn-out or disordered
vital centres of the body an impetus that
again starts them performing their natu-
raj functions.
1t is indorsed by eminent physicians
everywhere, and blessed by thousands
whose lives it has actually saved.
To neglect to use this wonderful food
in all cases of debility, wasting diseases,
overworl, stomach and nerve diseases, or
for weak infants, chronic invalids, loss OF
vitality in old age, is to throw away ona
of the greatest chances of saving life.

Engineer Uppleby of the stock tram
had orders to stop ut Seward, three mlies
south of the scene of the wreck, to allow
the passenger train to pass, and 1t proba-
bly will never be known why the orders
were not obeycd. The trains met on
sharp curve in deep cut in the bend OF
the Cotton Wood river
Passenger Engineer Frey saw shower
of sparks thrown into the air, across the
bluff, near the end of the curve. He
realized that the sparks were from another
engine, reversed his engine and lcaped
into the darkness against the side OF The
cut, calling to his firem IN to jump, but
before the latter could comply the extra
came around the curve 40 miles an hour
aud the two engines came together with
terrible crash and were buried into each
other third of their lengths
A dozen freight cars was piled into
great heap and the baggage, express and
mail cars of the passenger train were
completely telescoped and demolished in
an instant. The sound of escaping steam
and the believing and plunging of hun
dreds of cattle injured or maddened ly
the smell of blood, drowned the groans If
the injured and the cries of the frightened
passengers.
The passenger coaches were retained
on the track, but many gigantic Texas
steers, breaking loose from the wreckage,
plunged into the darkness, making it
dangerous for any one to venture out to
assist the injured. Engineer Uppleby
was found buried beneath the engines
Seventy head of cattle were killed. The
loss to the railroad will exceed $50, 600.

The Paris arbitration, Mr.. Dingley says,
is generally conceded to have been a fail
ure in its results. The government en-
tered into the arbitration for the purpose
of enacting regulations for the better pro-
lection of seals ana as the regulations
have failed to accomplish their object he
sees no reason why the government should
not give notice TO the other parties that
unless they unite with the United States
to protect the seals effectively this govern
ment will proceed to kill them.
The Paris tribunal erred, Mr.. Dingley
says, in supposing that the establishment
of 60milc zone and the prohibition of
killing by FIRE arms would accomplish the
preservation OF seal life. 1t has been found
that the seals can be killed quite as easily
with spears as with guns as the indians
are most expert in spearing them when
they go into the water to feed, as they
must every day. When fire arms are used
the herd is frightened and fewer seals are
killed. They are fast swimmers and
easily go beyond the G0mile limit in
swimming to their feeding grounds.
Mr. Dinglcy says it is conceded that the
herds have been decimated from several
millions to about 800, coo seals, and that at
the present rate of destruction they will
be extermin ated in four or five years at
most, possibly within three years.
Persons who were in the scaling waters
last summer told him that the pups whose
mothers had been killed were to be seen
floating around dead, as they starved to
death when they lost their mothers. Every
consideration of humanity, he contends,
dictates that the fur industry should be so
tnI hnt n1 will bo 1nn
away with, while financial considerations
suggest that if the killing cannot be pre-
vented, Canada should not reap all the
benefits thereof.
The ways and means committee, Satur-
day, again considered the Dingley bill,
which direct the President to have killed
all the seals on the Pribylotf islands, in
view Of the destruction of the herds
through pelagic sealing.
Chairman Wilson laid before the mem
hers substitute prepared by Assistant
Secretary Hamlin of the treasury depart
ment, which provides for the establish
mcnt of n joint commission with Great
Britain, Russia and Japan, or either of
them, to investigate the present condition,
habits and feeding grounds of the seals,
the methods of slaughtering them and
what further regulations may be necessary
for their preservation.
This commission is to consist of three
members on the part of each government,
and, if it be necessary to visit Behring
sea, a ship of the United States navy shall
be placed at their disposal. The substitute
further provides that, pending the lnvesti
cation anI report of the commission, the
President il authorized to conclude and
proclaim a modus vivendi with the forcgo-
ing governments. providing for new
regulations established by the Paris tribu
nal of limiting the catch on the islands
in any manner that may be deemed ex-
pedient for the preservation of the herds.
The substitute was agreed to with
practical unanimity, and it was reported
to the House with the original Dingley
bill added.
