with the royal arms and the emblems
of England, Scotland, Ireland, Wales
and the colonies. The king's throne
was elevated upon a dais and ap
proached by five ' steps, while the
queen's placed alongside, wag slightly
lower, with only two steps.
Between the thrones and the altar
was "St. Edward's chair," the vener

"Stone of Scone" upon which the an

Then trumpeters and a few heralds,

their blue, cadet uniforms, the others

At thlB'moment a roar of cheering
outside and the crash of. the." guard's
band as It broken Into the Jiational
anthem proclaimed that the king and
queen were alighting from their coach
at the abbey entrance.
The orchestra struck up the hymn,
"I wiib glad," and at the same instant

' Growing from two cars to a circus
train is the history of the Kit Carson
Buffalo Ranch Wild West shows which
exhibited to a large crowd in La
Grande, this afternoon. And .this
growth has been acquired in two years
through an earnest endeavor to please
the people..; ;. ; .. ,.;.'.-,..;:.''.'..
Early this morning the crowds be
gan to come in to see the show and by
noon Adams avenue was packed with
people. The street parade ; started
with the blare of trumpets, music from
three bands and a clown band.' In
the parade were cow boys, cow girls,
Indians, tableaux-, wagons, . troops of
Russian Cosackg headed by Dare Dev
il Prince Luki, elephants and a hun
dred other things.
The show opened with a grand re
view followed by the usual introduc
tions. Then the real strenuous work
began with the Deadwood stage coach
hold up. This was followed with a
wild west act, then a regular circus
act after which was an Indian scene.
Throughout the show this prevailed
permitting the spectator to witness
there shows In one. The program con
cluded with the famous battle of

PEOPTE TAKING
' III STORES
CROWDS WHO CAME TO CIRCCS
ARE MERCHANDISE BUYERS.
Stores Ottering Great Inducements
For' This Season.
While this has been 'show day It
has also been merchandise day In La
Grande and all store have been busy
waiting upon the trade. It Is doubtful
If ever there was a time when all of
the stores were offering such mer
chandise slaughters as, at present. The
cost price on goods la not considered
for all the merchants are cleaning, up
their stocks getting ' ready for fall
shipments of goods, and the order has
been to all cleTks to "sell." '
It Is a merchandise, carnival and
no mistake. One man from Hilgard,
after looking around the city, remark
ed to the Observer: "I never saw
such offerings of dry goods, clothing,
etc., as are being tnade in La Grande.
I spent a little over $19.00 and I got
goods enough to last me six months.
This is the proper time for the careful
buyer, as there is the greatest chance
ever to get anything and everything
you want In these stores. Old La
'Grande Is all right. At times some
of us may feel a little grouchy but
1 take It one month with another it
, would be hard to And a town where
(the customer la - treated better or
where he Is given more for his money.
