The Result of the Great Clos
ing Out Sale of Pianos
and Organs
In Hudson House BM.
Beautiful Pianos and Organs Sold at
Less than Factory Cost.
And That, Too, Upon Very Easy
Monthly Payments.
Shrewd Buyers Taking Advantage
of the Great Bargains.
Only Four Days of the Sale Remain.—Come
in at Once.
Only four days remain of the great
closing- out sale of the stock of pianos
and organs in the Hudson Hofise Block,
and if you ever expect to purchase a
piano, you should come in at once and
make a selection.
Many of the shrewdest buyers in
Gainesville and Hall county have yis-
ited the store and made selections, and
the best musicians have tried the in
struments and pronounced them all
right. This combination of verdicts
verify the statements that have been
made in the public prints, and there
can be no doubt as to this sale present
ing the greatest bargains ever offered
in the history of this section, and no
such opportunity will ever be presented
again.
P 1 ** eifemnsteaaes ate fetich that
these pianos and orgahfe iiillst he sold.
There is absolutely no choice in the
matter. The factory agent has been
instructed imperatively to not ship
away from Gainesville a single instru
ment, as not one cent more of expense
can be added to them, and the factory
agent will carry out these instructions
to the letter, no matter what the result.
These pianos and organs are made by
the wealthiest concern in the country,
and fully guaranteed in every particu
lar. No better instruments are made,
and it requires but a few minutes time,
and does not cost a cent to verify this.
Come in at once. Dont put it off
another day. Procrastination is the
thief of time, and a lost opportunity
can never be regained. The rich men
have made their money by taking ad
jutage of bargains, and the poor man
is without money because he never
takes advantage of making or saving,
always waiting until he gets the money
to do so and so, and of course the time
ftevei' comes.
Nothing risked, nothing gained.
These pianos and organs are being
s old at less than factory cost and on
Then there are magnificent NEW up
right pianos that have been selling tor
$425, which can be bought at this
sale for $298. Pay $2o cash and then
$10 per month.
Think of those exquisite works of art
that have been selling right along for
$500 which can be bought at this great
sale for $347. It only takes $25 cash
and $10 per month to pay for them.
Why buy a worn-out, second-hand
instrument when you can buy a NEW
one for less money—one that is fully
guaranteed by the richest manufactures
in the world? These instruments speak
for themsel. es, and are marked in plain
figures.
ADy bank in the United States, or
1 Dunn’s or Bradstreet's mercantile agen
cies will verify the statement that a
j guarantee given by this concern is as
good as a United States bond, and what
more can be asked? If there is any
thing, just mention it, and it will be
furnished.
As to organs.
Well, there are some fourteen of
them left. There were a number sold
yesterday, showing they are offered at
great bargains. Come in, select one,
and the price and terms will be made
right. You will be astonished at the
prices. It costs nothing to look.
Come in at once. You maybe too
late, then think how bad you will feel
when you see what a beautiful' instru
ment your shrewd neighbor has secured
at such a bargain.
Sale positively closes next Saturday
night.
Revising Jury Box.
The semi-annual revision of the jury
box is being done at the court house
today. The revisers are Messrs. John
A. Smith, J. II. Daniel, J. W. Hubbard,
Jesse L. Thompson, B. J. Hulsey,
Sandy B. Carter, and A. R. Smith. The
work is progressing and will be com
pleted soon.
Card From Col. Perry.
Editor Cracker: I notice an account
in your paper of the Bush trial and I
make one or two corrections. I did not
withdraw any remarks about the wit
ness Parker except the allusion to his
looking like a Spaniard. He spoke of
this so appealingly as if much hurt that
out of a pure impulse of kindness I rose
and withdrew the remarks. Had he
feihown any resentment in language or
maimer 1 would not have withdrawn
it, as I had done nothing wrong in the
matter and 1 expressly stated at the
time that I would not withdraw my
general criticism upon what I consid
ered the vindictiveness and inhumanity
of his course which had drawn forth
the comparison. The mere allusion to
his appearance was a very mild part of
the comment. The Judge did not rule
that counsel might say what he pleased
about a witness but he did rule that in
no respect had I in any remarks made
departed from strict professional pro
priety.
As to the reported action of the jury
extending a welcome to any other
Spaniards like the witness, if there
were any, to come to Gainesville; this is
a matter of taste and I have nothing to
say.
I regref to ever have to make a re
mark unpleasant to any one but I must
do my whole duty to my client and in
this matter I said no more than the
facts demanded.
Very Respectfully,
II. H. Perky.
Today is the first Tuesday in August,
DARING BURGLARS.
Enter Chief Bud Smith’s House.—
Get $49 And Other
Things.
Yesterday afternoon some burglar
entered the house of Chief of Police W.
E. Smith and stole about $49 in cash,
and tore up the furniture and what
ever else was in sight. The house was
entered about 6 o’clock but no clue to
the burglar was obtained. Mr. Smith
believes it must have been some one
familiar with the house. Mr. and
Mrs. James Marlow reside with Mr.
and Mrs. Smith, and $33 of the stolen
money belongs to them.
The burglary was one of the most
daring ever committed in the city.
The house was entered in broad day
light, and the money and other things
stolen were carried off before sundown.
Chief Smith has had his house entered
twice before by burglars, and he
seems to be unlucky in this respect.
As yet no arrests have been made, and
no clue has been obtained. However,
the matter will be closely watched and
some interesting developments may
take place.
Col. Hamilton Yancey, a prominent
insurance man of Rome, is in the city
today.
A “Veranda Party” will be given at
the lovely home of Mr. anl Mrs. J. R.
Boone on Green street tonight, to
which a number of young people have
been invited.
Fully Guaranteed.
Each piano and organ in the Hudson
House Block is fully guaranteed by the
wealthiest piano and organ man
ufacturers in the United States, and
any bank in this country will confirm
the statement that such a guarantee is
as good as any that can be given. Do
not be lead to belieye that any other
guarantee clothed in ambiguous lan
guage is any better, for if such as the
Steinway, Knabe and Chickering do
not give any different than is given on
the pianos in the Hudson House Block
there is something not exactly right
about it. Some say they will guarantee
a piano “during its life.” Well, what
is its life. Can anyone tell how long
anything will live? It may live two
years, and it may not. Then who can
tell when a piano is dead. The fair
and square way of making a guarantee
is to say just how many years you will
guarantee it, as anything else is guar
anteed. It is proof positive that a
guarantee “during its life” is not the
best way to put it in the fact that the
leading manufacturers of the world
will not give such a guarantee, and
neyer have.
Mrs. J. B. Hutchinson left Sunday
afternoon to visit Mrs. J. R. Hutchin
son of Elberton.
