LUDDEN & BATES’
New Musical Warerooms—They Pre
pare for the Wholesale Trade.
Another important branch of trade to I
which we would invite the special attention I
of our readers is the Mammoth Musical
Establishment of Messrs. Ludden & Bates. |
A few years ago the music trade of our city
could have been conducted in a room 10x12
feet, but when 1 .udden & Bates took a hand
in that line they seemed to infuse new life
into it, and, as an evidence of how our peo
ple are appreciating their efforts, we need
only add that the greatest trouble which
L. & B. have had to contend with of late
years has been in getting room enough to '
conduct their fast increasing business. On
the first of last June they reached the height
of their ambition by moving into the large
building corner of Congress, Whitaker and I
St. Julian streets, thus giving them three
floors and a cellar, each measuring 60x60 '
feet, which is undoubtedly the largest and I
most complete Musical Establishment be
tween Baltimore and New Orleans, for |
there is certainly nothing in the South (ex- ;
cepting those two cities) to compare with
it. Messrs. Ludden & Bates have long since
desired to branch out into the Wholesale
trade, and now that they have ample room
for displaying their stock in their wholesale
departments, they are offering to the trade |
a large and well assorted stock of Pianos,.
Harps, Orguinettes, Guitars, Violins, Ac
cordions, Banjos, Drums, etc., and, in fact, 1
anything n the shape of a Musical Instru
ment, from a Small Horn to an outfit for a ,
full Brass Band. This enterprising firm |
also deal largely in Sheet Music, Violin |
and Guitar strings, and every imaginable
article pertaining to the music trade. Our
entire South, as well as Savannah in par
ticular, has just cause to feel proud of;
Ludden & Bates’ Musical Warerooms, for ■
such an establishment can but be considered I
as a monument to the indomitable perse-I
verance and unwavering enterprise which j
have characterized the firm of Ludden & I
Bates since their first opening in our city in
1870, and now that they have facilities for
conducting a jobbing trade, there is no use
of sending orders to Northern or Western
markets.
RIESER & STERN.
Wholesale Dealers in Cigars, Tobacco,l
Snuff, Pipes and Cigarettes.
This branch of trade finds able represen- |
tatives in the firm of Rieser & Stern, who |
are now receiving large additions to their
stock. Mr. Rieser has just returned from
the Northern markets, where he has been
for several weeks past selecting his stock
for the fall trade in person. Anticipating
a heavy trade, they have laid in an unusual
ly large and well selected stock of goods,
and are, therefore, prepared to meet the
demands of their customers as to quality,
quantity and price. In their Cigar Depart
ment we noted among the numerous brands
of the weed “ Our Senators,” “ Tybee Sea
Beach,” “ Full Grown Picaninies” and
“ Cameos,” besides a full stock of Key
West and imported cigars, embracing all of
the most popular brands. There, too, can
be seen a large and well assorted stock of
Pipes and Cigar-holders of every imagina
ble shape, size and price. In fact, their
stock of smoker’s articles are complete in
every respect, and includes all of the latest
novelties. They also carry a full stock of
Smoking Tobaccos of all the leading brands.
CHEWING TOBACCO.
This enterprising firm are also offering to
the trade a large and well assorted stock of
Chewing Tobaccos of different grades and
prices. Among which can be seen such
popular brands as “ Unique,” “ Rappahan
nock,” “ Dixie’s Delight,” “ Wade Hamp
ton,” “ Southern Beauty,” “ Gilt Edge,”
etc., and, to sum it up in a few words,
Messrs. Rieser & Stern are offering a large
and well assorted stock of Cigars, Tobaccos,
Pipes, Cigarettes, Snuff, and Smoker’s arti
cles. Parties visiting our city, or ordering
by mail, would do W’ell to call and inspect
their stock and ascertain prices before pur
chasing elsewhere.
The Central Short Line.
We have used all of the persuasive elo
quence that we could command to bring
Savannah before our Southern section as
a Wholesale Market. There is no dis
puting the fact that our city is the Whole
sale Depot for Georgia, Florida, Lower
South Carolina, and Eastern Alabama, yet
with all of our boasted advantages, there
are some merchants who will go North to |
buy their goods, and to all such we would
say : Go via The Central Short Line,
which not only passes through the most
beautiful of Southern scenery, but the roads
are well equipped and in good order. Those
who anticipate a trip North on business or
for pleasure, or to any of the Virginia or
North Carolina Springs, should read the
announcement of Mr. Jno. Macmurdo, the
General Passenger and Ticket Agent, which 1
give an idea of the summer arrangements,
and.for further information in this section,
address Ernest Wiltz, Passenger Agent,
Savannah, Ga.
WEST BROS.
Cotton Factors and Commission Mer
chants, also Agents for the Delta
Cotton Tie.
We would call the attention of our
readers to the advertisement of Messrs.
West Bros., which will be found in another
column. The gentlemen composing this
firm, Messrs. John R. and Jas. G. West,
rank among our most wide-awake and en
terprising young merchants, and those who
entrust their business to their care can rely
on having it in safe hands. They ars now
prepared to make liberal advances on con
signments of cotton and other merchandise.
They are also agents for the celebrated
Delta Cotton Tie, and as cotton will make
its way into market in a few days, mer
chants and planters would do well to confer
with Messrs. West Bros, in reference to the
popular Tie they sell. Read their advertise
ment, and see the advantages claimed for
the Delta Tie.
