A SUCCESSFUL PLAN

we were positive that an advertising
plan as meritorious as this could not
help but win the approval of hundreds
of piano buyers in this State, and al
ready we are in receipt of scores or let
ters from recent buyers OF these Well
known pianos in which they indorss
most highly the instruments they have
secured. The placing of these pianos
will be a lasting good to US and u the
manufacturers represented.
In these days when piano houses are
paying fabulous fortunes to have great
pianists use and indorse their pianos
IL is real relief to find manufacturers
willing to divide the funds that usually
go to foreign artists among the piano
purchasers themselves. Indeed, IN this
case they are going even further, ror'

THE PIANOS

And what pianos these ares No
cheaply constructed instruments OF
poor quality or Indifferent tone. Every
one of them made by factories Of the
very highest reputation and standing.
The glorious Hazelton-used in their
private homes by the artists who are
paid to indorse other pianos in public;
the old reliable Decker-with so years
of character back of it; the ever-popular
Kimball-which every one who knows,
loves; the exquisite-toned Hobart NJ
Cable-as beautiful in design as in mu-
sicaI qualities; the Story & Clark-the
piano OF quality; the Schumann-al-
ways a prime favorite; the wel-known
Smith & Barnes; the Efainess Bros
which has always lived up to its splen-
did reputation; the reliable Schubert.
and the beautiful Bailey. 1t is only
necessary TO mention these names TO
convince every person with knowl-
edge of pianos what a wonderful op-
is afforded to every piano
buyer No matter what your taste may
be, no matter what qualities you like
best in a piano, from this galaxy Of the
worlds best you will have no difficulty
in having your wants suited

utilized dozen banks in which to store
his gold. Large deposits in one insti-
tuition would haye caused suspicion i'm
mediately, and so Ruef distributed his
Doodle cunningly. The comparison OF
dates made yesterday resulted in Sc
.ries of remarkable disclosures.
Following the deal with the Home
Telephone Company. in which Ruef re-
ceived $4,000, his balances in local
banking institutions took sudden
jump The increase was more pro-
nounced after the deal with the United
Railroads, out of which Ruef received
100000 The facts will be presented
TO the Grand Jury and used later as
evidence in the trial of the captive
boss.
District Attorney Langdon had
planned to call local bankers as wit
nesses before the Grand Jury yester-
day, but the press of other matters
prevented such action. Among the
bankers who will testify are William
II. Pabst, cashier of the United States
National Bank: William G. Murdock
Jr.. receiving teller of the Western Ma
tional Bank; John Chamberlain of the
Crocker National Bank and j. Finn of
the First National Bank. In each of
these institutions Ruef kept fortune
on deposit.
The revelations in regard to Ruef's
bank accounts complete the chain of
evidence. 1t was known where he got
the money and who paid IT to him, and
