/ 10 meet the constantly growing de-
mand for a Graphophone of the Grand
style at a figure that will suit the popu-
lar purse, the Columbia monograph Co.
announces that the price of the Column
61a Grand Graphophone is reduced from
SO to $50, of Grand records from 81 so
to 100 each. and of Grand blanks from
81 to 75c each.
1t is confidently believed that this sub
stantial price reduction will have the
effect OF placing Graph phones of the
genuine Grand type in the hands of
thousands of persons who have hitherto
been restrained from purchasing by rea-
/, son of the comparatively high prices
heretofore prevailing. AS further and
even greater means of stimulating the
sales of Grand machines and records, and
of overcoming what undoubtedly has
been the principal deterrent to their al
most universal use, the price of Grand
records have been reduced to 81 each,
instead of $3.50 as heretofore.
Columbia Grand records have Justly
earned the reputation of being the fin
est product Of the record making art,
and the manufacturers pledge themselves
that the goods will continue to deserve
this reputation. The reduction in price
has been made possible by the new man
nfacturing process which result in i'm
proved records as we'll as in more eco
nomlcal manufacture. Grand blank
cylinders, former V 81 each, reduced to
15c each. 1t is anticipated that the new
prices Will create a demand for these
wonderful machines that will greatly tax
the sunerb facilities of the manufactur.
ers. Their plant at Bridgeport, Conn, j.
the largest and most modern aud complete
talking machine factory in the world and
their facilities for the quick and econom-
ical production and distribution of their
goods are nnapproached.
The Columbia monograph Co. has
brought about every substantial i'm
provement in the talking machine art.
The most recent achievement and one as
startling Az the original invention itself,
wac the discovery of the PRINCIPLES gov
erning the construction of Graphophones
of the Grand type. These machines
give forth reproductions of sound with
the same volume and quality as the orig
inal rendition. They speak and sing
with the volume of giants voice; yet
with the intensified vibrant power there
is no sacrifice of quality. but on the con-
trary, richer, fuller and more faithful
reproduction of the timbre of the original
sound is obtained
Five hundred dollars was the price of
the machines when first offered for sale,
and the original price of large records
vas S. each Facilities for the manufac-
ture of the goods or large scale and
the bringing out of new models, have
made possible great reductions in price.

IMMIGRANTS ARE SHUT OUT.
Russians and italians Are Detained at the
Mexican Border.

Ell Paso, Tex, July 24.-At various
points along the TeXas-Mexico border
pauper Russian and Italian lmml-
grants have recently been denied ad-
mission to the United States and at
several places the forces Of the bor-
der guards have been doubled. Seven
ty of these immigrants and several
hundred Chinese are at Juarez. Mex,
across the river from this city, seek
ing favorable opportunity to smuggle
themselves in. Two custom, guards
captured fifteen of the Italians at
Ysleta, Tex, twelve miles east of here,
who had succeeded in crossing the bor-
der. They Wee taken back to Mexico.
The immigration agent here recon-
mended to the department that six
guards be appointed to assist the pres
ent force of customs officers. The de-
partment authorized him to make the
appointments, but Custom Collector
Moses Dillon wired the department
that the agent had oyerdraWn the sit
uat1on. and the order was revoked.

Mr.. Major, the famous cement man of
New York, explains some very interest
ing facts about Majors Cement.
The multitudes whe use this standard
article know that it is many hundred per
cent better than other cements for which
similar claims are made, but a great
many do not know why. The simple
reason is that Mr.. Major uses the best
materials ever discovered and other
manufacturers do not use them, because
they are too expensive and do not allow
large profits. Mr.. Major tells us that
one of the elements of his cement costs
1878 pound, and another costs $3.50 a
gallon, while large share of the SO. call
ed cements and liquid glue upon the
market are nothing more than sixteen
cent glue, dissolved in water or cltrlc
acid, and, in some cases. altered slightly
in color and odor by the addition of
cheap and useless materials.
Majors cement retails at fifteen cents
and twenty-five cents bottle, and when
a dealer tries to sell substitute you can
depend upon it that his only object is to
make larger profits.
The profit on Majors cement is as
much as any dealer ought to make on
any cement. And this is doubly true In
view of the fact that each dealer gets his
share of the benefit of Mr. Majors ad-
vertising, which now amounts to over
$4,000 month throughout the country.
Established in 1876.
Insist on having Majors. Do not &C
cept any off hand advicefr from druggist.
IT you are at all handy land you will
be likely to find that you are good deal
more so than yon imagine) you can re-
pair your rubber boots and family shoes
and any other rubber and leather arti-
5les, with Majors Rubber Cement and
Majors Leather Cement.
And you will be surprised at how
many dollars year you will thus save.

will be forwarded by mail; either kind.
