handle my goods direct from the
factory and they are frstclass, not
/ old, shopworn, unstable articles,
but good, honest up-to-date pianos.
The Cable factories are so crowded
with orders that it is impossible to
supply the public demand. What
does this mean? 1t means that the
Gable pianos are popular; it means
that they have stood the test and
scrutiny of the best musical critics
and are recommended everywhere.
1t means that they rank in file With
the sharpest competition.
ltmeans that they have NO EQUAL.
The old saying that, 1.-The proof Of
the pudding is in the eating," is very
applicable in the case of the Cable
Pianos; the proof of the value and
worth of the Gable pianos, is the PUB
Lie DEMAND FOR THEM.
Why do you buy a piano? For a
speculation? Or merely because it is
piano? You BUY it for companion
not only for yourself, but for your
children and your children's children.
One that will be useful as we'll as
and a poor piano is
neither. A good piano is both.
Do not look for snap in the piano
line, or you will get snapped.
The day for piano snaps is a thing
OF the past. A good piano nowadays
will sell on its merits and does not
5he Gable.
The Gable pianos are simple in
structure and are the results of years
Of practical experience and hard study.
They have the full, double strength
metal frame, an invincible backbone
Or pin block metal capped. Three
unisons to each tone and overstrung
base, thus giving from an eighth of
an inch to half an inch more vibration,
which means a great deal to the tone
quality OF a piano. The cases are
beautiful, put up in rich walnut, gold
en- oak, light or dark mahogany; in
short the Gable pianos have all the
qualities that go to make up first
class piano.
Remember. in buying of me you get
a guarantee HERE, not at the factory,
and you leave your money here; it is
not taken out of town.
Give these points moments
thought and give me call before you
buy.

Mr.. w. j. Carrick writes from
North Yakima, Washington, to
have his HERALD. ADVANCE sent
to that point. He says:
After thoroughly reviewing the west
and taking everything into consider
alton We decided to locate in the
Yakima Valley. We have a fruit
ranch OF ten acres one mile south west
of the city limits of North Yakima, a
prosperous city of five thousand. So
far we are we'll pleased and think we
shall continue to be. OF course we
greatly miss and often long to see the
friends we left in Milbank. In our
orchard we have peaches, plums,
apples, grapes, apricots, cherries,
pears and ounces. We also raise
berries and alfalfa hay. Drouths do
not worry us here as the irrig ating
bitches are everywhere and fed by the
melting SHOWS of the Cascades. We
can look at the clear blue skies OF
summer and not keep wishing to see
clouds appear and hoping it will
rain. Near Yakima the ranches con-
tain from two to ten acres, but twenty
miles from here are ranches as large
as many of which Dakota can boast.
They range from two hundred to six
hundred acres. Many of these are
hay and stock ranches, while others
are mostly fruit. So far the roses
have been blooming here. Not as
plentifully as in June, of course, but
now and then one. However I am
afraid the frosts we are having will
discourage them altogether.

The Bell Ringers will be fol-

Fatally Shot

The Lindquist brothers re-
ceived startlingly sad news the
first of the week, in a telegram
announcing the shooting of their
nephew, Clarence Lindquist on
Sunday afternoon. The young
man was 18 years of age, and it
appears that with other compan-
ions of about the same age, he
had been in the habit of visiting
a cave which they bad dug out in
an embankment, and there imi-
tate in play the heroes of the
trashy literature which they had
mbibed. Only one of the boys,
a lad by the name Of Bjorndahl
and aged about Is years, was in
the cave at the time of the shoot
ing. Lindquist had a revolver
and Bjorndahl had a rifle,
and the latter suggested
that they play "hold-up," and
pointing the rifle at his compan.
ion s breast pulled the trigger
of the gun. There was report
and the Lindquist boy dropped
over dead. His companion
frightened at the tragedy he had
enacted, ran up town and gave
the alarm, but at first claimed
that Lindquist had accidentally
shot himself. At the coroner's
inquest, however, he made a full
confession of the whole occur
renee, but stated that he did not
know the gun was loaded. The
dead boy was an only son, and
the terrible affair comes as a
shock to family and friends.

The case on the calendar
known as Lizzie Russell VS..
Frank limerick, John P. Kven-
berg and Berthold Weide, which
was tried in the circuit court
last week before Judge Mccoy,
was we believe the first prose-
cution of a saloon keeper under
the license law that has taken
place in this county. The case
was ably handled by Thos. L.
Bouck for the complainant, while
J. H. Driscoll of Madison, Mimi,
and Geo. S. Rix conducted the
case for the defendants, Frank

ing TO provide for his family,
since the opening of the saloon in
Revillo. That she had given the
saloon keeper notice not to furn
ish her husband any liquor, but
that he had continued to do so
and to sell liquor to her minor
son. During the trial the de
PENDANTS placed Russell himself
upon the stand, but his appear
ance and condition was such as
to indicate that he had become
such a slave to drink that his
condition rather appealed to the
sympathies of those who saw
him, and that he should come as
a witness against his own family
did not tend to strengthen the
case of the defense. The evi
dence in the case went to show
that liquor could be secured a
the Revillo saloon by any one
capable of standing up at the
bar and paying for it. The jury
were out but a short time wher
they brought in a verdict fol
Mrs. Russell in the sum of ST,
425. The verdict is generally
com mended as very proper
one, and it will probably have
the effect of making the saloor
keepers Of the county somewhat
more careful as to whom they
sell liquor to.
