TENlDAY6: PIANO SENSATION.
AT
Townsend & Marsha11's

Will certainly cause much comment
in Sank Centre. Have you heard
about it? Did you know that Town
sehd & Marshall had gone into the
piano business. and had taken the
agency for the Kimball piano, and have
placed on sale at their store a carload
of these famous instruments, that they
will sell at from 800 to s2OO-less thar
regular price-during this ten days
interval. t.A.~~e
For the benefit of those who are no,
familiar with the Kimball pianos, We
will give you the following information
The w. w: :Kimball company, Of
Chicago, operate the greatest piano,
pipe and reed organ factories in the
World. They do q larger business in
dollars and cents than any other firm
in the music industries. The Kimball
piano Is used and Endorsed by more
of the great artists, singers and must
clans than any other make.
Adelina Patti, the Queen of Song,
herself. nightinPa e-declares the
Kimball plan o to be the nightingale
of all musical instruments.
The Kimball piano took the highest
award at the Worlds Fair and the
Omaha Exposition. The "Chicago
Indicator" Of May 3rd, 1898 says:
CDR. Florence Ziegfeld, president
of the Chicago Musical College, the
largest institution of it's kind in the
world, purchased fifty Kimball pianos
to supercede the Steinway.'
just pause a moment and think
what this sale means. It means that
at this inaugural sale, it will be pos
sible for you to buy the leading stand
ard piano of the present day at saw
ing to you of from 500 to 5000 less
than regular retail price-and to own
a Kimball settles the piano question
for all time.
You can use the piano while paying
for it. Others do that way, why don't
you? The experience of thous ands of
happy owners of Kimball pianos in
Minnesota, who have done this way,
ought to influence you. Our terms are
cash, or $500 and $1,000 monthly.
Yes, we take old instruments in ex-
chahange.
A new upright piano of Eastern
make for $125.
A few minutes of your time will con-
vince you of the magnitude of this
opportunity. This sale will open on
Tuesday, March 23rd, positively, and
close on Saturday, April l.

have used Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy in my family for a long time
and have found it superior to any
for coughs, colds, Group, whooping
cough and influenza. It has become
famous for it's cures of these diseases,
over large part ofthe civilized world.
The most flattering testimonials have
been received, giving account of it's
good works; of the aggravating and
persistent coughs it has cured; of Sc
we're colds that have yielded promptly
to it's soothing effects, and of the dan
gerous attacks of Group it has cured,
often saving the life of the child. The
extensive use of it for whooping
cough has shown that it robs that dis
ease of all dangerous consequences.
1t is especially priced by mothers for
their children, as it never fails to ef-
feet speedy cure. and because they
have found that there is not the least
danger in giving it, even to babies,
as it contains nothing injurious. Sold

greatest mortality last year was in
August and September with 165 and 1e7
deaths, respectively, and the least
mortality in November and May with
So and 116 deaths, respectively. The
total figures for the year will be slight
ly changed by the December mortality

of tardy returns.

PITTSToN.

A matter of very much Importance to
many of our people here, and others
Interested is the following information
obtained yesterday from William Abb
bot, a man of wide experience in
mining matters, and at present the
mine foreman at No. 10 shaft OF the
Pennsylvania Coal company When
the fire was first discovered in No. s
shaft it was decided to drown out the
mine. and in doing so it was found that
it would be necessary to also flood No.
II. thus throwing out of employment
several hundred men and boys. To
this end large pumps were placed at
the edge of the river and pipes laid
from there to the old slope, while in
side the openings that led to other
workings, but which are on a higher
grade were closed with thick walls of
brick and cement. About this time,
one of the officials conceived the idea
of erecting gates at the foot of the
slope, similar to those to be seen at
any canal lock, and after filling the
slope with water open the gates and
let the whole volume pass through the
place where the fire exists. This has
been done. and the result is so salts
ing on. The water, after passing the
fire, flows into No. II shaft and when
pumped out to the surface is still
warm, showing that it has found the
place it was intended it should. If
the officials will be successful in this
scheme large expense will not only
be saved. but the works will be only
idle weeks, instead of months, as would
| be the case if the mines had been filled
with water. Since last Sunday large
| force of men have been laying pipes
| from the head of No. shaft for the
purpose of conveying the water pump
ed out of the latter to the slope, which
is the location of the present trouble.
