OSSMAN
Mr. Ossman is one of the finest banjoists in America, and has been justly called the “ Banjo King.” His performance on this popular instrument is little short of marvelous in its precision and the ease with which he masters the most difficult passages.

OCARINA SOLOS
The despised ocarina, sometimes flippantly called the “musical sweet potato,” has suddenly risen to the rank of a musical instrument, at least in the hands of this gifted Italian performer. Records by this brilliant player are in great demand, and much sur¬ prise is expressed that he is able to produce such effects from so humble an instrument. The carrying power of the Tapiero records is amazing. When played in the open air — on the water for instance — they can be heard for miles. For indoor playing the Victor “half tone” needle should be used.

GUITAR SOLO Mexican Dance (Habaneras)
Octaviano Yanes
10
As a complete novelty, a record by Senor Yanes, who is considered the best guitar player in Mexico, is presented.
Many of those who listen to this sweet-toned record will find themselves regretting that the guitar, once so much in vogue, has of late years lost favor in Northern countries. In Mexico and the countries of South America, however, it is still a favorite for accompaniments and solo playing.
STREET PIANO RECORD
Many of our cities have enacted stringent regulations forbidding the playing of handorgans and street-pianos except during certain hours of the day. With this Victor streetpiano record, however, the real thing can be had at any time. No complaints are antici¬ pated because the Signor did not play loud enough!
