Charlton is the originator of an idea that Is meeting with the approval of nearly every one who considers It and that is for the, citi zens who are Interested In maintaining a first-class horse and auto racing track, athletic grounds and a county fair to co.operate with the county und buy the property of the present Coun ty Fair association to be Jointly used fo rthe purposes above outline, and also foi a county poor farm. Mr. Charlton's idea is for the citizens to pay one-half what the property is worth and the county the other half, bui the title to the property . to be vested entirely in the name of the county. This tiact of land is too valuable for the county to purchase for poor farm purposes, but there being ample eround H' aire! all the very best of land this combination would prove mutually advantageous to all, and the county would not only have a first class p. or farm, but also first-class ground for its annual fairs, race meets and sports in general, and pro- ide a training track for breeders of young sioik. Dr. I'liariii.n says thai ho has not invt-Migated. but has been informed that the property can be se cured for about $10. ("'. If the coun ty could get this for $.".000 it surely would be a good buy. and if the peo- le generally could secure the use of the ranic for the purposes suggested m HIE TOURS SPAIN DAUGHTER OF M R.

"The Lincoln centenary was . cele brated In Paris at the Lyceum club two weeks ago," writes Mrs. Hill, daughter of Captain and Mrs. A.. M. Paul of this city, from. Paris. She Is associated with the Journalistic section of the club. ; "Mrs. Mason, wife of the United States consul general. Is president of the American section and received the guests, numbering over 250, ; among the mdistlngulshed people like Am bassador and Mrs. White, Dr. Henry Van Dyke, the last named giving an address on the life and services of the martyred president.

Mists Felecla Lyne Honored. Another Item of Interest to La Grande received by Mr. and Mrs. Paul is one which says: "A tea was given by Mrs. Hill at the Lyceum club of Parla In honor of Miss Felecla Lyne, a niece of Mrs. F. E. Moore of La Grande, previous to her departure for Spain, where Miss Lyne Is engaged for a concert tour. Miss Lyne has received flattering offers from Coven Garden, Royal opera, of London, but as an acceptance of same would be binding for several years, Miss Lyne will most likely be heard In America before she appears In England. "Mr. Henry Eames, also a western America man, but now numbered among the great artists In the world's art center, delighted the invited guests at the tea with numbers from Chopin, Schubert and Schumann."
