It Las come to the Front.

The rapidity with which tie Disc
Graphophone has come to rhe front is
due to the fact that the quality of the
records has been constantly improved,
from the time this type of machine be-
gan to be made by the Columbia Pho
nograph Company, the pioneers and
leaders in the talking machine art. The
advantages of fiat, thin and indestructi-
BILE records were always recognized, but
the manufacturers who attempted to
make them failed so lamentably in pro-
ducing anything to compare with the
cylindrical records used on the graphic
phone that the demand for them was
unimportant. All that is changed; the
Columbia Disc Records are delight.
If you have not heard them you can
form no idea of the advance that has
been made in them. The disagreeable
scratch and the mufled effect has been
replaced by a smoothe, naturalness and
brilliancy which gives to their produc-
ton most charming effect.
The Disc Graphophone is made in
three types, selling at SIS. $40 and $50.
Seven-inch records SOC each, s. per doz;
1O-inch records 81 each, $40 per doz.
The Grayhophone and Columbia Rec.
ords were awarded the Grand Prize at
the Paris Exposition of 1900.
The Columbia monograph Company,
10 E. Baltimore ST.. Baltimore, head
quarters for monographs and talking
machine supplies of every kind, will
send you catalogues on application.

CONFEDERATE NOTES.

The Confederate Committee having
in charge the selection of a desirable
place for the Kentucky Confederate
Soldiers Home. has decided upon Villa
Ridge, Pewee Valley, as the location for
the new institution. Villa Ridge con
tains S3 acres of land and a large and
commodious building containing 70
furnished rooms with water. gas and all
modern conyeniencies. 1t will accom-
modate about 200 people. Everything
will be in readiness for the reception of
the cid soldiers about the 10th of
October.
The Commander-in- Chief of the
Grand Army of the Republic has issued

The Possibilities Developed.

The success of the Disc type Of Ora
phophone which uses fiat, understandable
records, is largely done to the fact that
the Columbia Photograph Company.
pioneers and leaders in the talking
machine art, has developed the posi-
biIifies in both the machines and the
records beyond all expectations. 1t was
able to do this because it is the only
eompanr in the talking machine field
havinr d complete labratory and a
manufacturing plant on a broad and
comprehensive basis. It's facilities for
Experimentation and for manufacturing
are on a very large scale. 1t does not
have to rely on inexperienced manu-
facturers for any part of the product it
offers for sale. 1t makes its own
machines and its own records from start
90 finish which is fundamental advan-
vantage of the first magnitude.
The Disc Graphophone is made in
three types, selling at $15. $40 and $50.
Seven inch records SOC each, S. per
dozen; 10 inch records 81 each, $40 per
dozen. The Graphophone and Column

REMARKABLE DECREASE
IN DIVORCE LITIGATION
New Law Causing a Falling OF in Pc
titions.

The remarkable decrease in divorce
litigation. in all its different phases has
caused Inquiry as to the reason. Under
the old law nearly 80 per cent of the
proceedings instituted on the equity side
of the Supreme Court of the District
were petitions for divorce, either abso-
lutte OF limited. Since the code went into
into effect in January last limiting the
ground for absolute divorce 10 one
cause, infdenty, not more than 3 per
cent of the equity Iitigaticns are brought
under the divorce law.
Its believed that the clause of the
code which prohibits the guilty party
IN proceedings for divorce from remar-
Tying is the real cause Of the decrease
in thls kind OF litigation.
Il is said that under the old law there
we're a greater number of petitions fDr
divorce fled, charging infdelity than un-
der the present law. So II is concluded
that the prohibitIve clause Of the code
preventing the remarrying Of the guilty
person IS the true cause Of the failing
of Of the business IN the divorce courts.
