IVGTS \ Pond Pianos.
The Conservatory Expands.

The New England Conservatory OF
Music is about TO move into its beautiful
new buildings on the Back Bay. This
is the largest school of music in the
world, and its pre-eminence among
American institutions has been conceded
ever since 1t was founded in 1853 by DR..
Eben Tourjee.
Twenty years ago, when the depart
ment of pianoforte instruction was being
developed, a few Ivers & Pond pianos
were purchased. Since then, as the con-
servatory has expanded, there have
gradually been acquired PCS Ivers Il
Pond pianos. With the expansion in
cidental to moving into the new build
ing, the board of directors of the con-
servatory have placed their order for 81
additional Ivers & Pond pianos, making
a total of 299.
Higher tribute to this famous Boston
art product would be hardly possible
than 20 years continued patronage by
this most critical of musical institutions.

newspaper of New England, in its issue

Uncle Jobs Sacrifice.


s'pose it's part of the disease, but still
it's queer ter me
The way them poetry fellers praise the
things that used ter be.
Yer'd think, ter read the stun they
write, that everything was blue
And that the good on earth was old
and all the bad was new.
They tell you that no matter where
their weary feet may roam
They'llnever find the comfort that was
in the ''dear old home"
They'll never sleep the way they slept
upon the good old bed
Nor never taste such nectar as the
good old pump once shed.
They'll never eat no cake that's light
as grandma's good old loaves;
They'll never see SIGH fires as roared
inside the good old stoves,
And always at the end, they vow
they'd give up fame and gold
Jest once ag'in to revel 'mongst them
wondrous joys of old,
Well, say Fer years I've heard 'em
groan and sigh and weep and kick
Till seems If somethin should b. done
ter stop their suff'rin's quick,
And as one mortal has ter fall that
tother one may rise
I'll heave myself inter The breach and
be sacrifice.
I've got "dear old home" that's got
roof with many peak,
And every separate gables got a good
old fashioned leak;
I've got lot of good old stoves that
have the good old ways
And either freeze yer half to death or
set the house ablaZe;
I've got cornhusk mattress full Of
nubles set in rows
And pumps that's dry all summer and
in winter time is froze;
In fact, there's everything, l jedge,
that makes life wuth the while,
And yet I'd give the hull thing up ter
make one poet smile.
That is ter say, II one should come
who's sick of gold and fame
Upon my martyr shoulders he can Jest
unload the same,
And he can take my paradise, with all
its ancient charm,
And spend his days in joyful toll upon
the "dear old farm"
And while, amid comforts, he can gay
ly scrape and rake
Ter make decent livin' my fearful
way will take
Up ter the sordid city, where in some
hotel-the best
III live by easy stages and enjoy Q
needed rest.

MODERN ELECTRIC CANNON.

A NORWEGIAN SCIENTIST, Prof.
a Birkeland. recently demonstrated
with great success the powers of his
cannon at the Royal
Norwegian Academy. before ministers of
state. high officials and others
BY means of an electromagnetic cur
rent the professor undertakes to dis
charge. with a 61a centimeter expert
mental gun. projectile weighing ten
Kilograms. The projectiles penetrated
the target to depth of forty centime-
tiers, but the professor says that the effi-
cheney OF his gun at the present moment
is such that with 30 centimeter gun.
he could discharge a projectile weighing
500 Kilograms at a speed OF 200 meters
per second without flame or explosion.
The special value of his invention is
that it is capable of discharging pro-
jectiles with an explosive charge of such
strength that an ordinary field gun could
not stand the shock BY means OF the
electric current the violent shock is en-
tirely dispensed with.

PRIESTS WITH Boards.

A PETITION has been sent to the
n Archbishop of Vienna by the
Catholic priests of Southern Austria for
permission to wear boards. One of the
reasons given for desiring this indul-
gence is that they are often mistaken
for strolling actors with their shaven
faces, and another is that many Of them
are suffering from preachers sore
throat" which. they think. flowing
boards Will cure.
The priests do not say which of the
two evils annoy them most, bit they
seem to lag more stress upon the fact
that they are mistaken so often Tor act
ors. Catholic CIergymen wear boards
more often than is generally supposed.
Some of the monastic orders are beard
ed, and whenever there is any coed rea-
son for priest letting his beard grow
that privilege is extended to him. In
fact, the wearing of boards seems TO
be on the increase among the Catholic
priesthood. while with the Episcopalian
priesthood the contrary is the case.

Ship, who was born in London more than
seventy years ago, is at present ending
his days IN an almshouse. He sold his
patent outright for the sum of ESQ, and
the purchasers are said to have made

1t is less than a century ago that al
most all the worlds cooking was done
over the open fire. Joints were roast
ed on spit. Bread was baked IN a
brick oven, tediously heated with wood
For buildings and cakes the portable
known. In great houses deliberately
built-up ranges of brick, with iron tops,
were just beginning to be used. The
small compact range or cooking stove
seen today IN every kitchen was I'M
known. There is probably not one per
son in ten thousand who could say, If
asked, who invented the cooking range.
His name was Josiah Reed, and he died
only four or five years ago at the age
of ninety-two. His great invention,
which revoIutionized domestic life,
brought him neither fame nor fortune.
Thomas Fitzpatrick died about a year
ago He worked reform in modern
city life second to none among the in
ventions OF the past half century. He
was the builder of the first modern flats.
1t was about thirty-fiv years ago that
the idea came TO Fitzpatrick, who was a
builder by trade, OF erecting an edifce,
each separate floor of which should con-
stitute a separate dwelling. The idea
caught on at once. and now there are
large areas in most great modern cities
where fifty to seyenty-7ve per cent of
the inhabitants are fiat jewellers.
Englishmen who are town jewellers ride
in trans every day, and If asked what
is the origin of the word they usually
attribute II 10 Benjamin Outram, the
Derbyshire man, who first invented the
flange for keeping the wheel on the rail.
