MOTSDAY, AUGUST 30 NEVER before has there been devised a piano-selling plan that saves you so much money or offers such opportunities for free musical educa tion as the Ludden & Bates Piano Club. Join it and voti save one third your piano money—sll3—in cash. We sell you for only $287 an elegant cabinet grand piano equal to any S4OO piano made, and include with it a complete course of instruction without a cent additional cost. You pay $25 when you become a club member and the balance on easy payments. This wonderful club offer is due to our plan of selling 100 pianos at a time instead of one. By our plan it costs but little more to sell one hundred than to sell one; besides we are wholesalers and sell to you at the wholesale price, saving the dealer's profit and all this tremendous saving in selling cost is divided with you. The Ludden & Bate? Scale PIANO is hacked by a lifetime guarantee to be perfect in every respect —thousands of satisfied customers, many in your neighborhood, will tell you this. Vou run no risks in joining this club. If the head of the family die*, we cancel the club contract and give you the piano without payment of another cent. You have everything to gain and nothing to lose. The Ludden & Bates Club Piano is a full cabinet grand with special copper-wound and steel strings, perfect scale, light, even touch, genuine ivory keys. Magnificent cases of first grade walnut, mahogany or oak. Rich, clear, “singing” tone found only in highest grade pianos. ... r ite us at once for application blank and description of our club plan. Our experts will select any piauo j’ou desire and we’ll stake our reputation on furnishing a perfect instrument, btool and scarf free. Write to-day, as club is now forming. LUDDEN & BATES.

NEW YORK.—Anna Curran Costel 10, the pretty nineteen-year-old daugh ter of Dr. James C. Curran, No. 152 North Eighth street, Brooklyn, has lost her faith in the courage which the life of a cowbody is supposed to in still. “Just think,” she said to an Am erican representative last night, “there’s Jim, a strong young fellow, who used to boast how he roped steers as a cow-puncher, and how he’s afraid of his mother-in-law." "Yes. and he has good reason to be,” broke in Mrs. Curran. "If I ever catch him around this house— well, just wait and see. To think of that boy running away with my girl! Why, he practically slole her. James P. Costello, an ex-cowboy of (wenty-two, now In the employ of Un cle Sam at the Boston Navy Yard, and Anna were secretly married on December 19, 1907, after a whirlwind courtship, and parted the next day by fear of parental authority. Anna went back to her Brooklyn home and Jim started for the west, to make his fortune as a cowpuncher on a Wyom ing ranch. The two kept, their marriage secret until a short ttme ago, when young Costello came back to New York with the money he had saved by two years’ work. He went straight to the Brook lyn home of his bride and told hor mother that he had come to claim Anna as his wife. “We got acquainted at parties and at picnics, and it was just, love at first sight,” said Jim. "We couldn’t, wait any longer, so had the Rev. D. W. Peterson, pastor of the Trinity Evangelical Lutheran church, lie the knot." This was all the bridegroom had a chance to say before he was sum marily dismissed by his mother-in-law. Since then he has written letters from Boston Imploring his girl-wife to join him, but. has not dared approach the Ourran home. “If I loved that man nothing could keep us apart, not oven mother,” Anna added. “But I don’t care for him. It won’t do him any good to ’try to get me away from my home.” All went happily until they moved to their present residence, where young Hayes lived An understand ing sprang tip between the lad, who is only twenty, and Mrs. Bowman. Then Hayes and Mrs. Bowman de cided to leave Chicago. The woman called her husband on the telephone and said good-bye. Bowman begged for a farewell meeting.

HANDED LEMON TO ATLANTA MANAGER Ren Kahn, Erstwkils Manager of Orphenm, is Being Sued For Alleged Violation of Contract. ATLANTA, Ga.—Considerable spec- 1 ulation has been indulged in by local theater-goers as to the exact status of Ben Kahn, at one ttme manager of the Orpheum theater and more lately promoter of the new Forsyte street theater, which he at. first pur posed to open as a vaudeville house with attractions from ihe Morris circuit. If all the stories going the rounds were true, Mr. Kahn would be hold ing as many jobs as John D. Rocke feller does slock in the Standard Oil company. He would be the busiest bee in the big theatrical hive. But all you hear about theatrical man agers cannot, unfortunately, be taken without, a tincture of salt just as one cannot accredit all the poppy dreams which the industrious press agent grinds out. about comic opera stars and grand opera singers. The truth of the matter is that Ben lvaliu recently went out ahead of Ed die Leonard's Minstrels. According to report, some days ago he received a polite from Klaw n Erlanger to drop In and see them. Mr. Kahn was immediately three men on the job of breaking it to the offices of the big bosses. Ho was received with cordi ality and was immediately served with a summons in a suit for $25,000 for alleged violation of certain con tracts in regard to the now Forsyth street theater. Surprised? Well, they do say that Mr. Kahn was so flustered that he gave his cigar to the first newsboy he met on the street. Just what, contracts, If any, were violated is not known at this end of the line. Eddie Leonard, by the way, was in vaudeville, when Kahn was running the Orpheum. It. was while playing there that Lew Dockstader levied on his scenedy for alleged violation of contract. me a well woman, and 1 would like to tell the whole world of it.
