Gi'more's celebrated band will ear at the Opera House this evening and will be assisted by Miss Fritch. The expositions where Gilmore has played ackn' wledge his band to be a greater attraction than all other features combined. At St Louis ard Kansas City there were hundreds who ( d n Jt miss single concert morning or eve = ing and occupied nearly the same seats tt each performance. Miss Fritch is beaut- full young American lady, with a remark ably sweet oice, and as the prima-donra a of the Gilmore concerts, captures the plaudits of every audience.

Gertie Jaffe Tries on Her Bridal Veil and
 Hears of Her Lovers Suicide.
 SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. 30.--NIiSs Gertie Jaffe, of Oakland, who was to be married at noon Friday afternoon laughingly tried on her bridal veil, despite the protests of super stitious friends Ten minutes later her father came in with news that her lover, Solomon Lowenburg, had attempted suicide and was dying from bullet wound in his brain Lowenburg was 40 years old, and made a snug fortune in wheat trading in Tulare county. He was apparently a confirmed bachelor and had made a will in favor of his brother and two sisters. They opposed his marriage to a girl of 19 years. and told him that she was two young for him. He brooded over their warnings until he became morbid, and then shot himself. He died without re- gaining consciousness. Oakland society was greatly shocked by the suicide, as extensive preparations had been made for a church 1paddiop

A Man Who Deserted His Family Pun-

4 Man Who Deserted His Family Pun-
 fshed by Disguised Neighbor-.
 BOSTON, Ind, Jan 3O.-Charles Crecelirss was taken out Saturday night by the White Caps, and treated to fifty lashes on the bare back. He has been married for some time. and has four children. About $ year ago Crecelins suddenly deserted his home, taking with him an unmarried girl named Laswell. whom he induced to elope. Their flight became known to the girls relatives at once, and pursuit resulted in her capture and return home after an absence of three days. MT. Laswell armed himself, and started out to kill Crecelins but the latter received timely warning and fled, remaining away until a short time ago, his wife meanwhile being without means of support. =
 It became known that he was in the neigh borhood, and the White Caps determined to punish him. Accordingly about half score of the regulators, having learned that their man was at the house of one Morgan, called there, all being disguised and heavily armed. Crecelins met them, revolver in hand, but the weapon was taken away from him. He was then taken out to a tree near by and tied up, fifty lashes being administered with a will to the screaming captive. He was then directed to go home to his wife and children and take care of them the White Caps spokesman in forming him that any attempt to leave the neighborhood would be frustrated and visited with greater punishment still He promised to do as ordered, and was set at liberty

The Great Metropolis Visited by Fire
 that Entails a Loss of Se, 500. .0o0.-Two
 Bremen Injured, One Probably Fatally.
 NEW YORK, Jan 30.-Between and o'clock this morning, Broadway was visited by th- most fierce and destructive fire that ias occurred in 15 years. Before the fire was got under control, the property occu- pying the West side of Broadway between Prince and Spring Streets, and extending through to Mercer Street, was destroyed. One time it was thought the fire would ex- tend into the next block. ss Three Sizes" were called and all engines below Forty second street responded. There were twenty-three engines and two water towers at work during the fire. While the fire vas raging, there was terrific explosion, .ausing shower of iron aad brick to fall into the street. Fireman Riley received q bad scalp wound and had an arm dislo- cated. Other explosions occurred, throw ing tons of brick into the street. Fore man Sheridan was crushed by falling walls and probably fatally injured. Travel on Broadway is interrupted for several blocks. Eight buildings were burned and contents totally destroyed Estimates place the loss at S2, 300, ,000. There is much damage to adjacent buildings from heat and falling walls. The buildings burned were occupied by fancy goods, trimmings, faces. feather and clothing dealers.
 It is reported now that 10 firemen were severely injured, and several civilians slightly. It was supposed that the fire was under control. but flames broke out again and the department is doing its utmost to confine them.

 CHARLESTON, Jan S0.-The result of the conference held between Governor Wilson and the special committee of citizens from Logan county was given to your correspon- dent late yesterday afternoon.
 The governor, after considering the lengthy petition signed by the best people of Logan county to the effect that two of their citizens, one of whom was a deputized officer ill tn discharge of his official duty, had been shot down in cold blood OF West Virginia soil without provocation by Kentucky despera- does, and Lit appearing that these lawless raids are still being made into this state, de stroying the peace and endangering the lives of citizens, and that such incursions are too powerful to be suppressed by the civil authori- ties," the governor has ordered two companies of infantry to report for duty ct this city inn mediately.

What Drummer Fred Miller Thinks.

The Wallingford correspondent of the Hartford Sunday Journal in referring to the recent Drumming contest says: ''The prize-drumming contest between Louis H. Elmer of Hartford and 4. M. Whaples of New Haven came off as advertised. The result was what everyone anticipated, that Elmer would win. Elmer was in no con- dition to drum, and tainted away directly after the match was ended. Whaples is trying to make out that the referee gave a wrong decision in awarding the prize to Elmer, but that won't go down with Wal lingfurd drummers. The whole prize drumming business has made considerable feeling. Fred Miller of Waterbury thinks he can clean them all out, notwithstanding he has been beaten by Elmer. Some of the Wallingford drummers think Miller the best drummer in the State"
