Gabler Pianos

The GdbIer pianos are among the very
best and choicest medium grade pianos in
the market to-day. The many improve
ments added to these instruments by Mr..
Emil Gabler, both in the interior and on
the exterior finish, together with that at
tractiye sliding fail board and the general
Improvement OF the instrument through
out, both in construction aud in design,
make the Gabler pianos great instruments
for the dealer To handle. To tlis must be
added the fact that they give the very
minimum cause for complaint, being built
on principles that make them thoroughly
reliable and durable. Musical Courier.

"rhe Wife" Tonight.

The attraction at the theater tonight,
"The Wife," may bs described as society
drama with pure and interesting theme,
utterly devoid Of everyday claptrap effects
used ia modern drama. 1t is absorbing
from the start, and carries a breadth of
power, with the unweaving of the story,
which is unlimited. The skillful pens of
Belasco and De Mile have built the play.
The tale is as follows: Mrs. Bellamy Ives, a
widow, opens the play with amateur
theatricals for charity's sake, and during
their progression John Rutherford, a
United States senator, avows his love for
Helen Truman, society belle in love
with Robert Gray whose moral charac-
ter is traducod by one Lucille Ferrant
She accepts the senator, and they
are married. A quarrel between Gray and
his enemy in politics, Mathew Culver, in
which newspaper tales have been circulated
by Culver, brings about Helen's confession
Of her love to her husband, whose manly
conduct brings about a revulsion Of feeling,
which terminates the drama in general
happiness. Other characters, as Mrs. Ives,
her daughter Kitty, Jack Dexter, the lover,
Maj. PutoaIn, assist to work out the enter
tai ing plot. In the cast are Mrs. Berlan-
Gibbes, Miss Frances Gaunt, Miss Ethel
Greybrooke, Miss Eta Hawkins, Miss Eliza
Logan, Miss Olive Dunton, Boyd Putnam,
Henry Herman, s. Miller Kent, Henry
Talbot, Thomas II. Burns, Stanley Rignold
and A. w. Gregory.

THE RIVER FRONT ROAD.
The Central's Tracks Being Laid to tn,
Lower Rice Nall.

The Centrals Tracks Being Laid to the
Lower Rice Nail.
Work was begun yesterday at the foot Of
Bull street on the River street extension Of
the Central railroad. which is to be extended
TO the Lower rice mill A force of twenty
hands was put to work. 1t will
be doubled to-day, and the road will be
pushed rapidly east " ard to its terminus.
Some idea of the value OF the River street
extension may be gathered from the fact
that something ike forty cars were loaded
or discharged between West Broad and
Bull streets yesterday, and on Monday
twelve cars were loaded with bananas at
the foot of Barnard street
"The road is a great convenience to u.s."
said Mr.. Brennan, of Kavalaugh & Bren-
nan. Our chartered vessel. the
Ydun, landed at the wharf opposite our
warehouse, and we were enabled to load the
cars without much handling of the fruit,
which Is great advantage in reshipping by
rail"
Not only is the River street extension a
great accommodation for merchants to re-
ship goods, but also in receiving go IDS, and
vessels are loading cotton as far east as
Bull street, the cotton coming in cars and
facilitating rapid delivery.
1t is understood that from Bull street east
a double track will be laid, as the demand
for cars trrants the Central in putting
down double track. The track is double
between Barnard and Bull streets. and if
the width Of the street would permit the
entire extension would have been a double
track

KILLED NEAR THE CIRCUS.
Samuel Coffee Shot on the Belt Lin
Bridge.

Samuel Coffee Shot on the Belt Line
Bridge.
Coroner Dixon held an investigation yes
terday morning over the body Of Samuel
Coffee, a colored lad of IA years, who was
shot and killed on the Belt Line bridge
night before last by some unknown party.
Only one witness, Martin Coffee, a
brother of the dead boy, was
examined. He said that he and his brother
lived beyond the Belt Line bridge. They
went over to the circus grounds, a half
mile distant, but did not go into the show
Samuel left the grounds about 10 O'Clock,
and his brother followed shortly after " ard
In crossing the bridge quarter of a mile
from tue circus grounds Martin saw some
thing on the bridge floor, and APP
preaching it he saw that it was his
brother. Assisted by other negro BOYS he
carried the boy to his home. DR.. Cox was
summoned.
The wounded boy died in few minutes
afterward. He was shot in the left shoulder.
The presumption is that the shooting was
accidental, as there was a good deal of
randon firing in the neighborhood after
the show.

WOULD BIZ A DETECTIVE.
A Youths Experience Learning the
Detective Art

Detective Art.
A young man named Harrison, who halls
fro New York, and who has beau making
a study of dime novels, principally of the
detective turn, reported yesterday to Detec-
tive Wetherhorn, and wanted to serve as
his auxiliary in detective work.
Tbs excessive verdancy of the youth was
seized upon as a sufficient excuse
to teach him lesson. and he was told
to spot gentleman who was in
the secret. Tue youngster followed the
man like a sleuth hound all the forenoon,
and along about noon ran him to cover in
the Savannah brewery. Here he lost imrne-
date sight of his man. To spur him to
greater endeavor the would-be detective
was told that it would not do to let the man
get away, as he was king among oonfl-
dence men, and a reward of 81 600 was
offered for his arrest.
After searching every nook and Granny
of the brewery he was told that the hunted
man had just disappeared in the opsa door of
the cold storage room. Not suspecsiug the
sell, the detective rushed in, and the door
was closed aud fastened upon him by q wag
who was in the secret, and Harrison was
kept In the ice-cold room for fully fifteen
minutes, and only the visit of the he I'd of
the brewery company kept Harrison from
being shut Ia the room a half hour. He
came out with his coat buttonod up around
his throat and shivering with the cold, 60 be
told that the game had flown. He started
post-haste up town to find the man he was
looking for in Justice Naughan's private
office ia irons, and was told to search him,
but as the prisoner made a show Of resist
ance he backed out. The youngster was
sent out again and finally was sent home.
The experience will doubtless show him
that he cannot learn from reading sod
Sleuth" how to be detective, and he will
probably go back to his carpenters be ch
and leave detective work to those who have
not depended on trashy literature to fit
them for dealing with the desperate elias ses.

Thomas Lamon was held 10 5000 bail be-

CT assault and battery upon John Dale, the

The trouble grew out of trial in Justice
Sheftall's court, where Lamoa was prose-
cuted in a woman case, Dale being one of
the witnesses against him.
Yesterday morning, according to Dale's
version of the affair, he was passing
Lannon's house at Montgomery and Bay

him for giving testimony unfavorable to
Lamon the day previous. Lannon's story
does not differ materially from that Of

II. Spear is walking back and forth
from the depot, inquiring if those cars
of lumber have come. j. S. Rambo ar
rived here last night: his teams very
nearly worn out as the roads were in a
horrible condition from late rains.
This evening Il. J. Vandepburg, j.
S. Lyons and Billy Sickle arrived in
town overland and report a fine time
with only one man killed on the route.
The evening train brought in Geo. c.
Sterl and C. 4. Barker from Abilene.
Up to 9 a. m. April oath no lumber
or other carload lots of freight had
been received here and in consequence
there are a great many disappointed
boomers. Goods in the express office
cannot be gotten at owing to the rush.
All yesterday afternoon there were
fully 5000 people in and around the
depot, and all in good humor, as much
so as a similar crowd would be around
the Stanton house. Shipe purchased a
lot and tent last evening and is now
prepared to entertain his friends in the
most approved style.
Surveying the new town begins this
morning, then we expect the fun to be-
gin in earnest. Heretofore no ones
claim has been contested.
Among the Dickinson county people
we noticed A. L. Vickers, of Manches-
ter: Joe Hall, NJ. L. Potter. Sandy Nj.
Rae and Rev. S. E. Belts, of Hope;
Alvah Mutt and Leonard Hoffman, of
Abilene.
Lumber is very valuable here; a
stick 2x4, IA feet long, is worth one
dollar. 1t makes Parker green with
envy to think that his lumber does not
come in. There are only twenty-one
lumber dealers located here. Thou
sands of people are leaving every day;
the railroad company sold 1900 tickets
yesterday, to say nothing of those who
had return tickets and those who left
by wagon.
The Oklahoma boom is surely and
