The ball was then sailed down to second before Hanna could slide to the bag after having made a lunge toward the- third W. ' McFarlaue seemed to become somewhat rattled in the ninth, giving Hanha and Bal bitt their bases on balls, after Dillon had gone out on a hit to second. Hanford poked one out in the riwlit garden and Baer came marching home. Bowley flew out, and Babbitt waltzed across" the plate, w hile the Dubuque fielders were getting the ball in from thegarden. in which thev were a little slow. Hanford was caught napping on second. Then the jigwasup. Dulmque scored three times in the second.

I cannot refrain from expressing niv appreciation of those m " - points ot incomparable excellence which have governed me in mv choice. With exceptional advan tages afforded me during my recent tour of Eurojte for comparing the many admirable instruments of for eign make, not only with each other, but with those of American manufac- lure. iiicu n nas oeen neretoiore been my good fortune to use in mv profession, I have lieen impressed with the conviction that, in the two essentials of excellence, tone and ac tion. the Kimball : is the instrument that realizes the conditions of approx imate perfection. First, I would say that the Kimball piano possesses a marvelously perfect action and a marvelously li'ght and resiKinsive touch that renders it the most facile and reliable of instill ments.
