TONIGHT ONLY.

Klaw and Erlangers big company
will present Gay New York." at the
Grand tonight.
The book was written by Hugh Nor
ton, and is said to possess witty lines
and lyrics. The music was furnished
by Gustave Kerker, and has the catch
and-carry-away-w ith-you quality nee
essary in work of this class. The songs
have acquired popularity, notably
Molly" Its Fourteen Miles From
Schenectady to Troy" 'Jusque La"
''Lurline," Little Goody TwO-Shoes,"
and others.
The company is perhaps the largest
of its kind now en- tour. 1t numbers
nearly eighty persons. The list of
principals is an able one, both in guam
tity and quality. Eddie Foy has a
thoroughly congenial part in the char
acter of a stranded actor and is also
prominent in a burlesque on 1.-The
Heart of Maryland" Jeanette Ba-
geard, one of the best of condolences
gives a large measure of vivacity to
the programme. Yorke and Adams

''Mcbeth;" Eta Gilroy, lends life and
vim to numerous dances, leads a group

SENSIBLE ADVICE TO PIANO
BUYERS.

Commission Agents, Consignment
Dealers and Piano ''peddlers," who are
utter strangers, should be compelled
to show their original factory bills of
lading of the Pianos and Organs they
offer for sale. If contemplating pur-
chasers Of Pianos and Organs, will in
sist on this they will be saved a lot Of
money. Manufacturers who consign
pianos, ship them first to one town
and to one agent, and then to anoth-
er. We have known pianos to be ship
ped to four different towns, before
they reached here, and some of them
were sold at each point and then repos-
sessed and put on the market here.
A careful investigation and the de-
mand of the Original Factory Bill of
Lading, by contemplating purchasers,
will prove our assertions.
All our Pianos and Organs come di-
rect to us from the Manufacturers,
there is no commission paid and the
purchaser is assured of getting a NEW
INSTR UMENT We have the ONLY
First-C Glass Pianos manufactured, and
have the largest stock to select from.
Beside we sell them as low us any
house north or south, and on EASY
Payments WITHOUT NOTES.

He says the robber stepped from be-

Roosevelt's course will be watched
with even more interest by the

themselves civil service reformers
of whom Mr.. Roosevelt has been

this investigation will play an I'M

Who do not believe that there was

schedule does favor it, and that 1t,
and the striking out OF the clause
