HANDSOME STOCKS.
F. L. Long Opens His Large Mercan-
tile Establishment.


The doors of +, l.. Longs double
store, the old Hamaker location, were
opened this week and the mammoth
stock of the establishment exhibited to
the public. A REFLECTOR Representa-.
tive called and found the store well
filled with ladies already taking advan-
tage of the dry goods bargains offered.
The goods displayed are certainly
worth every purchasers attention. The
stock comprises nearly $4,000 worth
Of the latest style drygoods of every
kind, boots and shoes, hats, mems fur.
nishing goods and clothing.
The old Hamaker stock is being sold
at 40 cents on the dollar while the S23,
600 worth of new goods are being given
at prices that surprise everyone.
The bargains offered are not alone In
drygoods but the gentlemen will find
as remarkable opportunities to save
money in the clothing line.
In addition to the staple lines we
noticed many novelties never before
displayed in Abilene and which are
sure to attract buyers.
Mr.. F. l.. Long, who las purchased
the entire establishment, and hi,
affable corps of assistants are thor
oughly familiar with the business ant
everyone will find them gentlemen will
whom it is pleasure to do business
Our readers will miss rare opportun
ity II they do not inspect the new stor
before buying. 1t is not only hanjsom
In arrangement and crowded with new
goods but bargain giyer in ever
sense of the word.

firmed-Many Matters.

uImeu- many matters,
The city had considerable business
transacted for II last night. The coun-
Gil members were out in full force and
seemed in husinesslike mood. They
wrestled gaily with bills and recon.
mendations and gleefully confirmed the
mayors appointments without hest
fancy,
The minutes of the April meetings
were read and approved. The chief
item was the reelection of John n.
Shane as president Of the council, a
worthy choice on the part Of the mem
bers. lie has during the past three
years filled the place with credit and
all are glad to see him again honored.
The mayor then submitted the follow
ing list of committees for the ensuing
year:
Streets, alleys and grounds Metz.

Schopp, Reed.

On motion the appointments were
approved.
A long list of bills for work on the
streets was read and allowed. The
bills Of election clerks and judges were
allowed.
On motion Of Gowles the bill of the
Electric Light Co. for lighting the city

awarded the printing.
The mayors appointments of officers
were next in order and created some
surprise. Richard Brown was made
city marshal, his duties to begin June
|. Geo. Hoisington was reappointed
assistant marshal. lie has made a
capable officer aud deserved the recog
milton. Mr.. Brown is also a good
appointee and will make number one
marshal. After listening to an appli.
cation from James Adams, Theo, st.
Peter was reappolnted street commia-
sloner. L. +. Smith was for the second
time reappointed city clerk. lie has
made faithful and careful recording
officer and his reappointment will give

I committee were made special com
mittee to recompile the city ordinances

and alley committee with power to
make necessary improvements.
A motion was made by Cowles that

such necessary work.

II SHALL DIE TONIGHT
4 Man on Trial for Murder 4 ciuAIiy Pre-
diets His Own Death.

MARSHALL, y. e., August 10 shall
die tonight" said ". II. Shelton to the
sheriff, who was conducting him from the
court house to the Jail.
Shelton was on trial for murder of
Grant Tweed some months ago, whiskey
and a woman having much 10 DO with
the homicide. During the day the state
had put on the stand three eye-witnesses
of the killing, and Shelton, who had heart
disease, was much affected by their testi-
mony.
II was while on the way TO prison, after
court had adjourned for the day, that he
told the sheriff he would die that night.
He asked that he might be put in a COM
Portable room instead of cell and his
wife might visit him. His requests were
granted
As he predicted, Shelton was taken i'll
during the night, and, although physi-
clan exhausted his medical skill in trying
TO relieve him, he died about , o'clock.
Shelton was a robust-looking man and
seemed in perfect health when the trial
began.
