Drees rehearsal hag been held and
everything la ready for the first per
formance of a series of two to ' be
given by local talent under the aus
pices of the La Grande band. All the
receipts go to the band, and as the
musical organization Is going to be a
strong figure In La Grande's Saturday
attractions hereafter, It necessarily
needs more money. To supply the
city with music the band must be In
position to buy music, and the re
ceipts of tonight's and 'tomorrow
night's performances will be sent
through that channel. As seen by the
cast of characters, all are La Grande
people. The seats are on sale at Jay
