JohnGatan Seats on Sale Monday AMUSEMENT TONIGHT The lights will all be on tonight After a season of darkness Steward Opera House will be a blaze of glory tonight The opening bill will be the "Millionair Tramp" and a better selection for an open ing play could not have been made. Man ager Steward in making this selection did rot fail to take into consideration the desire and opinion of the patrons of the house, and believes that if the naming of the opening peice could have been left to a popular vote the choice would have been "The Millionair Tramp," The press without exception ha spoken ell of the peice, nd La Grande patrons ar sure to be well pleased with the production NEXT FRIDAY A remarkable union of a fine play with brilliant scenic achievement, "On the Bridge At Midnight," which is ta appear here for one night only Friday Sept 28 will present the famous reproduction of the Chicago jack-knife bribge alone and the rest of the play is dressed out as careruiiy. But mey wer -well aware that the play is the thing and the result is that the scenery, with all its excellence is only a fine detail of a story of deepest interest originality and plenty of romance humor and pathos. In order to present the production as it should be the man agement has secured an unusually com petent company, including clever commed lans. The marked success of the play gives it the ttamp of unquestionable merit and will undoubtedly be one ot tne best attractions of the -season. There is certainly nothing on the road bridge scene in striking interest fection of detail. like the and per- ME PIANO RECTAL Central Christian Church was packed with an enthusiastic audience Monday night to listen to the recital given by Mr. Louis Bruce, assisted by Mr. C. P. Ferrin tenor, and Miss Bertha Young, violinist under iheauspicies of Eilers Piano House. Mr. Ferrin was in excellent voice and hi singing of Mascheroni's "For All fclaroity ana Uaul t "Holy City was very .much enjoyed. We have heard piano player before but nevereuch music as this. It was ea:y for one to close his eyes and imag ine he was listening to a great artist playing jQottschalk's Tender Sast Hope, Herberts dainty Badinage and that wonderful work of the great master j Liszt Hungarian Phapsodie No. 2 Another surprising feature was the beautiful way in which the accompani ment fi:r the soloists were played with the .Pianola Piano allowing them every lattude of expression. Hiiis isanage of marvelous inventions and the tflstro style Pianola Piano is cer tain oneof its greatest achievment.

I K is only a question which t; pewnter, for the word i well and truly used in the singular sens. j The typewriter that ha come to stay is . not the one of ten year back, when ia I novation caused such a stir in business l T! , . . . . . circles, i nen noooay ever tnought of as sociating the word "alignment" with a typewriter; it satisfied the user o long a the machine would write some fashion or other, and with constant break-down ever-present repair bills were paid smil ingly. But things are different now. Time tests all things. The business man has become wise. He want what he pays for. He has learned the value (from deany-bought experience) of a machine which will write properly, not only the day it is bought, but perpetually. He also wants to be satisfied upon the peculiarities of the many machines now before the public. The individual claim of our product places its position beyond all question, and the few particular we give on the following page will, no doubt be found of interest to those buyer who 'want what they pay for" ABOUT THE OLIVER The No. 8 Model, which ha secured such a firm foothold on the universal markets, constitute what is reckoned as the most perfect typewriter possible. WHY? Her is our attswer IT WRITES IN SIGHT There it no carnage to lift; no con structional part to peer over. Your work is there right before you. ALIGNMENT Each type-bar i a double or U-shaped one and the alignment i secured thereby. No slots or to-called "guides" are neces sary to preserve the alignment of the Oliver. The U-shaped type-bar does it SIMPLICITY In th construction of the Oliver lest than one-half the usual number of part is employed, consequently what there is to learn is learnt quickly. MANIFOLDING The freedom of the Oliver type-bar permits of any desired force, so that in heavy manifolding equally good results are obtained first to last copy From one to twenty copies can be made simultaneously, without materially increased exertion. STENCILING No extra-heavy touch is needed to cut a perfect stencil on the Oliver. The or dinary touch is sufficient therefore all risk of "cutting out" is avoided. The type of the Oliver cut the finest stencil pos sible. OPERATION r,i s:;vcr never tirss. y.i epers"" a pleasure, even when used' without intermission. Its tcuch is beautifully elastic and most responsive. The fastest operator cannot overtake its speed. NON-LOCKING TYPE-BARS . The type-bars of the Oliver cannot lock, no matter how many key be depressed at one time. TYPE CLEANING The type of the Oliver are not a with other machine, cleaned individually, but collectively, and the case with which thi cleaning in done make excuse for dii ty type impissible. LINE RULING Lines, either vertical er horizontal, and in any color, may be ruled -upon paper whilst it is in the machine, and without the aid of a ruler. Ordinarily, any neces sary ruling is left of course, until it can be done in the usual way, but is usually forgotten. REMOVABLE CARRIAGE The carriage is removed from the ma chine(for .cleaning and other purpotee) instantly, without manual interference with any fastenings whatever, and is Just at easily replaced. PAPER RELEASE By a single movement absolute freedom is given to the paper, leaving It to be either straightened or otherwise moved in any desired position. No force is nec essary, consequently no soiling or tearing, of the paper occurs. CARD WORK The Oliver typewriter will feed the stiffest and stoutest card as easily as a ingle sheet of paper. A WORD ON INVOICING If there is anything which dem- nstrates to the full the value of the Oliver for tab ular work, it is invoicing. To those users of hidden-writing machir.es who attempt to satisfactorily prepare invoices thereon. the futility of such a task must surely be apparent. Mechanical contrivances (known as "tabulators") have been de vised, it is true, to assist them, but so much time is lust in "setting" the mech anism to which must be added the con stant raising of the carriage (occasioned by the operator's lack of confidence in the tabulator), that the invoice could very well be writte- by hand in half the time. Fur thermore, tabulators on other than Oliver typewriters, interfere very seriously with vital parts of the typewriter itself, render ing it very unreliable for ordinary us?. The Oliver it the ideal machine for in voicing. With it visible writing, per manent printing point, indicator and per fect release key, margins are instantly found and maintained all with greatest simplicity. No tabulator it necessary on th Oliver, but if one i wanted, we tup ply the best tabulator made. Bear in mind, however, that w tavt extra cost and give better results. Again, with the wonderful manifolding power of the Oliver, it will makes man copies of an invoice a required, and every copy clear and distinct. The use of an Oliver for invoicing in- ur Speed, legibility, efficiency. economy, neatness and regularity. The Oliver i already adopted by some of the largest business houses for invoicing as well as correspondence purposes, fur ther particular of which w shall b pleased to furnish on application.
