r PAGE E LA GRANDE, UNION COUNTY, OREGON. WEDNESDAY, JULY 5, 1911. m CROWDS i o DAY A.ND SIGHT PASS WITH OSLY TITO ARRESTS. i tj, 5 u.' .... 'X- I'rowd) Exemplar in Efery Respect Best In Score of Tears. In 21 years of police duty in La Grande, Chief of Police Walden has not seen a more orderly crowd than yesterday thronged the stiteet of La Grande and crowded about the con testing ball games. Two arrests we-e made. Loggers who come to camp on ly occasionally are general conceded to have in their numbers mn who "celebrate" but of the crewg from the many mills within a radius of 40 miles of La Grande not a one came up! against the arms of tbJo law and the j same thing la true of all the various ' branches of the cosmopolitan crowd.' The greets were void of intoxicated people. . During the ball game there wag ab solutely no need of police; not a word was spoken In the heat of the excite ment that was out. of place and not a semblance of intoxication was seen anywhere. I waa not a celebration that was without trace of vulgarism or drunkennjess. NO ACCIDENTS TO MAR 4TH DAY PASSES WITHOUT A SINGLE I JURY OF MOMENT. Slight Accident to Goose Pulling Con testant Only Incident of EJrgret Except for a slight accident attend ing the goose pulling contest in which a . La Grande man named Ream ws slightly hurt, the Fourth of July cele bration yesterday was unmarrted ty accidents. The moderate use of fire crackers passed over without a single case of Injury, at least none have been deported to the physiciang of the city. The handling of the large crowd was unusually good and with teams and automobiles winding and picking their way through the dense throng, it was lndted remarkable that the day should pass without a single Injury being inflicted.

PRETTIEST THING In My Home, is a Macey jBook Cabinet To set one of the new Macey Book Cabinets in you? home it to set before your children an example of such good taste that throughout aft the days of their lives they will feel its refining influence. Macey Book Cabinets are the first sectional bookcases ever built after the designs of the old masters. These old masters, Sheraton, Chippendale, Robert Adam and Fra Junipero, were as gTeat in Furniture as Shakespeare in Literature, as Mozart in Music, as Michael Angelo in Painting. The new Macey Book Cabinets are the only sectional book cases that can be added to, both upward and sideways, and still not look like sectional bookcases, but like heirlooms of furniture. Can be taken from or rearranged without destroying their beauty and style. So artful is the cabinet work that dealers frequently have to take them apart to convince customers that they are sectional. Macey old master designs harmonize with any furniture you now have, and are made in such variety of popular prices, sizes, wood and finishes, that they fit any requirement of space or purse, Macey Sectional Book Cabinets are built under the direction of Mr. O. H. L Wernicke, the father of sectional bookcases and President of The Macey Company. Mr. Wernicke's name it still used in the corporate title of a competing firm, with which he has long sine had no connection. If you wish to give your home and your children the most in spiring influence you ever gave them, you will go to a furniture tore and see these new Macey Book Cabinets before you forget it- W.

La Grande's honors at speed rac- us wiui nose carts and stringing hose ou piaying a stream commonly desig nated as a wet test, were upheld yes terday by the Blue Mountain i tion, an organization of young beys of u'su Bcnooi age and under, who were called upon to compete in the wet test against the Union team with but a mo ment's notice. To run a dead heat with Union In the speed race in :24 1-5 for the 200 yards in thia forenoon, to ruir the same diigance at 2 ovwv i 24 flat, and to win from Union In the wet test in rather slow time because the Union team experienced a blow-oft was the riecord for one da v. Tiio n m r - w A. had practiced somewhat diligently iur me speea race but the wet test was done for the first tim'o and (he lay ing of hose was enacted viary credit ably, everything considered. The rag ular fire department team announced I i. m . us retirement from tha rv. thn night before after having given con siderable attention io practice. For this reason the B. M. A. entered the wipt test George O'Neil and J. H. Peare as sisted the B. M. 'A. in the wet test as hydrant and nozzle men respectively, but when Mr. O'Neill lost hi tiniri a critical moment it was Joe Whitby iiiWf'ihimininiy who saved the day and recovered to that O'Neal and be together could get water through. All the three racea were pnettily executed. In the after noon race Union conceded victory to the B. Mi. A. because of the conflict with the ball game. The Union run ners have been showered with con gratulations for tbjeir efforts to play ball and run the races and conduct, their band as a whole. O Firs Xflled in Collision. Supterlor. Wis., July 5.
