That was a very successful and well timed reception and banquet that was tendered to Governor West laHt night by the business men or tbe city at the new Umprjus. It was a real Informal, unconventional so cial greeting and meeting of the men of Hi fairs, with '.he Chief Executive of the state.. There were no poll ties, no fen co fixings, no button hol ing, no whispered corner conferences and no frills. Men who differed frankly and forcibly with the guest of honor on policies and theories and act 'j, were as cordiul In their greet iuH as those -who have suported him In every manner. One of these. arid he Is one of the most Influential factors In the uf fairs of Importance, ventured the remark, that while there was iMJBsIbly not a single ques tion on which he and the governor agreed, still they were the best of frienclK, and he was glad to be there, and this was the spirit that animat ed all. Nearly one bundred guests were In their places at the banquet that followed the reception In the hotel lobby, and which lasted up to the last mlnuto allowed before time ror departure of the officials for the north, Judge Dexter Hice cted aH t oust master In his usual felicitous manner, and after cigars were light ed called upon Circuit .Judge Hamil ton for the first tall. His Honor was more than gracious and Impres sive In hlH remarks, nnd was given the closest attention while he cover ed a large Hold of local topics and much good seed was sown on very fertile soti, from which results and benefits are sure to accrue. The informal chat made by the governor next, was given the heartiest appre ciation and was more of the nature uf a little friendly conversation with old timo friends than a set speech, Ilk that delivered at the fair grounds In the afternoon; laughter and aplii'ise greeted him continual ly, stories of personal experience with some of the others present, roinomhornnces of campaign events all told In on Inimitable way, went far to show tho remarkable vote getting capacities of the man. Tho lant and longest speaker on the list was Professor Kebec, of the Hlate University, and ho Interested this assembly of busy men In many things that were new to them, while he kept their attention during his lengthy speech, with his remarkable diction nnd superbly rounded sen tences. Such occasflons as last night arc of more benefit in bringing the vnr lous sections of city and county to gether, than many other means that have been used, and while we cannot always have n governor with us nt these times, It Is not necessary, for when the men of a community meet In social Intercourse as this was, one finds out things In his neighbor that ho did not kno wwer there, kindlier foidlnk's are promulgated over the curling smoke nnd after the well served viands. Let us have more of them and seo what a harmonious feeling will Iw started and kept alive. The Christian Tennis Club will give an auto tour around the world September 23.

The dressing rooms are situated under the club rooms of the Klks temple. They are six in num ber and are fitted with lavaicrlea and wash stands. Cement floors cover these rooms and they aro sani tary and well ventilated. The orchestra pit Is adapted to ac commodate -six pieces. Jt Is low enough so that those in the orches tra will not interfere with the view of any of the audience, The Rose burg orchestra will be employed to give the musical program at all the road shows. When the house Is used for pictures only a pianist and a trap drummer will be employed. The music at alt times will be under the personal direction of Mr. and Mrs. G. O. Gryee, of Portland, both of whom are musicians of note in tho metropolis. , Moving pictures are good only when the machine that throws them on the screen good.

The Motiograph lb the first picture ma chine that was a success and It has continued to maintain Its lead, it bh rows (i orllllane ;im f Uc.kerless picture osi tho Bcreen, one that will not strr.ni the eye while looking at it. It Is provided with a patented double cono Beml-lnterrupter shutter which reduces1 the period of non-ex osu re by about 25 per cent and Increases and Intensifies the picture when thrown on the screen. In addition to this machine Mr. Uloom has still another one for use In case of emer gency.

The exiert eloctrician 'that has been employed by Mr. Bloom comes from Portland. Mr. George B. Evans has had several years years exper ience In the Portland theatres and, will look aKer the Mights during rORd show engagements and on other occasions will operate the Motio graph machine In the fire proor booth In the gfUlery. it would not be proper to conclude this description of the Antlers with out saying a word about Manager Bloom, He Is a hard man to inter view. Ho Is modest to an extreme and while he answered all questions about the new play houne and was courteous in taking a News repre sentative over the plans, still he does not feel like saying praisewrothy things about the play -house. He wants the public to make these ex pressions. Mr. Bloom has resided In Portland fjr the past 15 years. He Is man lea and has a charming wife and a little girl just four years old. Mrs. .Bloom and their little daughter will arrive in Hoseburg within the next few weeks and take up their permanent residence here. For the paMt ten years Mr. Bloom has "beea visiting Hoseburg and every time he caime here he was look ing for the proper opening. He liked the. city and he wanted to make it his home. After ten years of travel he found the owning he had been looking for and he snapped It up. He wants to give the people of Hose burg the best there is In the motion picture world as well as the very highest class of road shows that can be obtained. 'I want the people of Hoseburg to feel that the Antlers is their theatre. They are the ones to be pleased and I want them to feel free to offer suggstions looking to the betterment of the theatre both from the viewpoint of the shows and pictures and the convenience of the patrons," was the way Mr. Bloom ex pressed himself. It 1b probable that an informal opening will be given on the nigfit xtf September the 30th. If so, pic tureswill be shown and Mr. Bloom will ask the people of Hoseburg to view the ihouse before the grand opening. In this way the people will have an opportunity of seeing the new theatre at a moderate price be fore Officer 666 arrives. FOR.
