The company must be carry Ing a vast amount of - scenery ' and "props" ' for ; there are Innumerable "drops" and a multitude of trick stuff. It is even more of a "trick scenery' show than "The Devil's Auc tion" or any of Hanlon's spectacular successes of a generation ago. Almost every 'minute something' happens. Flowers spring out of nothing, and so do dinners, smoking material and even people. All disappear, with equal dis patch. There are more things doing than at a circus, for articles are ap pearing and disappearing again In all corners of the . stage. Mechanical magic plays an important part in the entertainment, and when the tricks are momentarily suspended there are songs and dances by "a capable com pany of comedians and pretty girls. of block 108, of Chaplin's addition to the town of La Grande, Union county, Oregon; "also an undivided one-sixth Interest In and to lot 5 of block 2, "B" street, original townslte of La Grande.
