OBITUARY
EMIL E. GABLER DIES.
Emil E. Gabler, who formerly was president of E.
Gabler & Bro., died at Elmira, N. Y., on September
19, and his funeral was held in the Campbell funeral
church, Broadway at 69th street, New York city,
Sept. 22. The Gabler concern is now one of the
units of the Jacob Doll & Sons, 100 Southern boule-
vard, New York, and Mr. Gabler was not in con-
nection with the firm at the time of his death. Mr.
Gabler was the son of Emil Gabler, who was one of
the two original brothers who built up the firm's
business. Some time ago, E. M. Boothe of Jacob
Doll & Sons, Inc., in writing for a Gabler catalog,
made reference to Mr. Gabler as follows:
"Mr. Emil E. Gabler, the present head of this
firm, is the rare combination of artist and successful
business man. His fame as a pianist of high tech-
nical proficiency together with his musical scholarship,
makes it altogether fitting that he should be a tal-
ented exponent of the instrument that bears his
name."
FOUNDER OF THE APOLLO CLUB.
William L. Tomlins, aged 86, founder of the Apollo
Musical Club, Chicago, which he started as a chorus
for men and women in 1875, died at Delafield, Wis.,
on September 26. Mr. Tomlins was conductor of the
Apollo Club for 23 years, and he was widely known
among the members of the music industry. He gave
particular attention to children's choral work. His
daughter, Miss Christine Tomlins, was manager of
the old Hartford Building in Chicago for several
