The Dog and Poultry departments at
the Dallas Fair. Sept. 2S to Oct. /
Tuesday to Friday, will be on an ex-
tensive scale. A large tent is being
erected to accommodate exhibitors in
these departments. The wooden build
ings on the grounds are entirely too
small to hold the exhibits this year,
hence the erection of new buildings and
tents all over the grounds. Remember
the dates. Trains every hour of the
day. The lowest rates ever given to
Dallas by the railroad companies. -

BURGLAR DROPPED HIS PLUMBER
Was Fleet"FoOtcd and Succeeded in
Making His Escape.

Yesterday morning about o'clock
Officers JOhler and Thomas, who are
on duty in Green Ridge saw "A man
carrying a large bundle and acting in
a suspicious manner on Delaware
street. They were about to aop:' Il, 4
him when he perceived their intentions
and dropping the bundle he run.
The officers gave chase, but he proved
tco fleet for them and succeeded in
making his escape. The officers re-
turned to where the plunder had been
left and took the articles TO the Phin-
ney hose house with instructions to
give it to the rightful owner in case he
should call.
Later in the day Everett Gardner,
residing on Dickson avenue, called at
the hose house and stated that his res
idonce had been forcibly entered dur
ing the night and several articles TAX

fed them as the ones that had been
stolen from his home.
Among the articles were: one iron

DEMOCRATS CAUCUSED.
Those Present Decided TO Stand by Sena
tor Mcdonald for Solicitor and E.
r. Blewitt for Engineer.

The Democrats will undoubtedly be
defeated in the election of a city en-
gineer and a city solicitor at tonight S
joint meeting of councils. They must
be conscious of the result, particularly
after Saturday nights caucus when
seven of their number failed to appear.
Notwithstanding that fact, the Demo-
cratic leaders say their candidates are
sure of election.
The caucus was held in Common
Councilman Flanagan's Globe hotel on
Wyoming avenue. It was called for
7S0 o'clock, but there were absent Pres
ident Ncalis and Messrs. Grier and Nc
Grail, of the common council, and
Messrs. McAndrew, Frable, Robinson
and Mccain, of the select branch, and
the opening Of the meeting was de-
ferred pending their arrival The clock
struck eight, but the absentees had not
materialized a half hour later all eX-
pectations that they would arrive We're
abandoned and the caucus proceeded
James Manley, of the select branch,
was made chairman. There was no op-
position among those present to eX-
Senator NJ. Il. Mcdonald and T.. +.
Blewitt, candidates respectively for the
law and engineering departments. That
they would not receive the support of
all the absent members was a con-
tingency which aroused some discus
sion, but there were no other avail
able and stronger candidates and con-
seguently nothing could be done but
endorse them. IT was then relegated
to certain ones the duty of bringing
the malcontents into line if possible
a few of the faithful, including Mr..
Blewitt cOngregated yesterday at Mr..
Flanagan's hotel where it was eX-
planned to a Tribune reporter that nei-
ther President Nealis nor Mccain
could attend Saturday nights caucus
because they were with their trains
somewhere along the Delaware. Lacka-
wanna and Western road. Concerning
Mr.. MCGrail it was remarked, "Oh, we
don't care anything about him, any
how"
OF Messrs. McAndrew, Frable, Robin
son and Grier no comment could be
ELECTED beyond a general statement
that those members were unable to at
tend the caucus on account of business
engagements.
A final gathering of the Democrats
will take place tonight in Mayor Bal
ley's office in the city hall at 7 o'clock.
one hour before the joint session of
councils.
The Reublicans maintain absolute
secrecy as to the vote that will be cast
for their candidates, City Solicitor Tor
rey and City Engineer Phillips. The
election of those two is claimed, how
ever with q confidence which the
Democrats have not yet displayed. This
means that the Republicans are de-
pending on at least two Democratic
votes to overcome that partys major
ity of two on joint ballot. The Re-
publicans have a majority of one in Sc
leCt council and the Democrats a ma
jority of two in the common branch.

TOMORROW NIGHTS CONCERT.
Gregorowitsch, the NounG Vioiirist,
Comes Well Recommended.

One of the several musical stars who
have attained recent world wide prom
inence is Grpgorowitsch, the young
Russian violin virtuosO, who appears
Tuesday night at the rockingham
with David Bispham, the American
baritone. OF GregorowitsCh the Ber-
liner COncertbesichte says:
THE concert season has presented
to us many musical personages, but
the concert of the young violinist,
Charles GregorowitsCh, a pupil of the
violin king, Joachim, and the late Rus
sian master, Wieniawski, gave US es-
pecial and rare pleasure. The concert
took place with the assistance of the
Philharmonic orchestra, under Profess
sor Joachim. The young artist showed
himself to be q ViClinist of the first
rank, with a brilliant career before
him. His highly developed technical
knowledge permits him to overcome
easily all difficulties, and he knows
how to call forth from his instrument
such soulful, soft and enchanting tones
as only great artists can. His eXeCu-
tion is excellent, free from all striving
for effect clear, and penetrated with
deep musical feeling; his playing en-
chains in an extraordinary manner
the ear or the listeners, who religious
ly listen for the precious tones which
come forth in purest and truest harm
ony. The Beethoven ID Major Concerto
for violin and orchestra, was received
with enthusiastic tokens Of applause
by a house, (the Singakademie), sold
out to the last place. The appliance
was repeated after the variations for
violin by Joachim and the gypsy airs
of Sarasate."
