Gordon Institute, Bartlesville, Ga., one of the leading institutions of learning in this section, with a Music department that stands second to none and under the direc
tion of capable and educated musicians, last week opened a competition among the leading music houses of the country for the supplying of the Music department with a
compile ol dfit liew Upright Pianos. This brought into direct comparison the merits of the different makes of Pianos, and no such searching tests have heretofore been
-iyen Pianos in the Stater of Georgia. It gives the Gable Piano Company pleasure to state that after a careful and conscientious examination of the various makes the famous
KINGSBURY PIANOS were selected to go into the Gordon Institute, on account of the beauty of tone, perfect action, artistic case designs, and a durability that will with-
4ar)d the hard usage a Piano is subject to in school work. Messrs. B. M. Turner and J. W. Stafford, president and secretary of board of trustees of Gordon Institute, have
kindly given us permission to publish their letter:
Gordon Institute, Barnes ville, Ga. Barnesville, Ga., June 24, 1898.
H. B. MORENUS, Manager Cable Piano Co., Atlanta, Ga.—Dear Sir: At a special meeting of the Board of Directors,- held this day, it was unanimously voted to
place an order with you for the purchase of six ne>\ Style B Kingsbury Pianos, to be used in the Musical Department of the Gordon Institute of this city. In purchasing these
pianos of you it gives us pleasure to state that we have selected the Kingsbury in preference to many other makes which are now being used in various colleges in the State,
on account, as we believe, of its superiority in tone, action, wearing quality, and the excellent and workmanlike manner in which the cases are finished. You may deliver the
above number of Pianos immediately. _ B. M. TURNER, Pres. Board Trustees Gordon Inst; J. W. Stafford; Sec. and Treas.
The selection of a Piano is a serious matter, and especially so when one is not familiar with the various makes. The decision of the trustees and musical faculty of the
Gordon Institute is an aid to any one in making a selection. Profit by the investigations of these well known people and buy a Kingsbury.
More Kingsbury Pianos are being sold in the southern states to-day than any other make of Piano in the world.

Th o Sngllsii nnd Americans Are Imps**
taut Factors In Paris Life.
“On nnd after this date,” wroti
Napoleon I to Douche, “see that the
English are expelled from Paris.”
Such an edict would seem. a very
large order at the present day, but it.
was by no means a small one in Napo
leon’s time. What would the Paris of
today be without its English colony?
From Sir Edmund Monson. our embas
sador, to the palo boy who xiies the
English journals at Neel’s library in
the Rue. Cnstiglione the English are
very important factors in Parisian Pie.
There has been an English colony in
the French capital for many centuries,
yet one might search in vain for a sim
ilar French colony in 'London. The
Leicester ond Soho square districts, ok
though owning to a large French popu
lation, possess hardly a trace -a vjie
flavor or mien that disting^i Les the
quarter the English frequentParis,
and it is not a fifth the size. :
To speak broadly, Paris lias within.,'
its walled borders a little London of
many thousand persons—not squalid
and impoverished, but boasting splen
did mansions, fine shops, hotels,
churches, hospitals and libraries, and
all these to such an extent that it is
difficult to believe one Is not in the
British capital itself* <
The inhabitants of this colony might
roughly be catalogued as follows: Re
tired people and gentlefolk who have
seen better days, those who desire to
have their children educated in the lan-,
guage, business people, authors, artists,
students, journalists and professional
men, those who have the best of private
reasons for living out*of England and
cranks, which term includes certain in
dividuals who for some cause or other
have developed a feeling of hatred for
the land of their birth. Nearly all are
exiles of their own accord.
On Sunday the elite of the English
colony turns out to the Church ot^the
Embassy in the Rue d’Aguesseau. Here
for a number of years Dr. Nayes, who
was formerly a Jbeytonstone incumbent,
has preached, and here a collection bag
goes regularly round, and is as regular
ly returned in a condition of compara
tive emptiness. For your Englishman
of the English colony is either in a con
dition to help largely support the church
and dobs or else gives nothing at all.
One thing must be said about the
English and Americans who go to Paris.
They support the city. Without their
patronage there is scarcely a . big shop
on the boulevards that would not close
its doors within a few months.—London

Costs Nothing.
It only takes a few minutes and costs J
absolutely nothing to step in the music
rooms in the Hudson House Block and
verify for yourself the statements made
in regard to the great closing out sale
of pianos and-organs. They are inark-
i n plain tic ores, and theinstrumeci r

Macaulay drew this picture oi' the
power of Spain 000 years ago:
The empire of Philip II was undoubt
edly one of the most powerful and ;
splendid that ever existed in the world.
It is no exaggeration to say that during
several years * his power over Europe
was greater than even that of Napoleon.
In America his dominions extended on j
both sides of the equator into the tem
perate zone. There is reason to believe
that his annual revenues amounted, in
the season of his greatest power, to a
prim ten times as large as that which
England yielded to Elizabeth. He had a
standing army of 50,000 troops when
England did not have a single battalion
in constant pay. He held, what no oth
er prince in modern times has held, th6
dominion both of the land and the sea.
During the greater part of his reign he
was supreme on both elements. His sol
diers marched up to the capital of
France; his ships menaced the shores of
England. Spain had what Napoleon de
sired in vain—ships, colonies and com
merce.
She long monopolized the trade of
America and of the Indian ocean. All
the gold of the west and all the spices
of the east were received and distribut
ed by her. Even alter the defeat of the
armada English statesmen continued
to look with great dread on the mari
time power of Philip. * * * Whoever
wishes to be well acquainted with the
morbid anatomy of governments, who
ever wishes to know how great states
may be made feeble and wretched,
should study the history of Spain.—Ex*
