Yesterday was an exceptionally quiet day for circus day in and around the -police station. One' extra man was placed on the force to keep order but It was found necessary to arrest only two people during the day, both on the charge of drunkenness. last evening near the "Y", two Mextacns were held up and separated from considerable of their hard-earned coin. The police found several sus pects but had to let them all go as there was no evidence whatsoever against them. They have a few clues and some private theories, however, that may lead to the apprehension of the robbers. La Grande's first skyscraper Is rap idly nearlng completion. The roof is now finished and the . windows and sashed are being placed today. When this Is completed the new Ave story building will be enclosed and It will take but a few weeks to finish the Inside work. By the first of October the date set or possibly before, the structure will be ready to house the many professional and business men waiting to occupy their new offices. This building will not attract the present citizens alone, which would amount ' to a mere change of office but many new people are already planning to come to La Orande and locate In the Foley structure, and there Is no danger that other build ings will be left vacant as there has not been a vacant store room and hardly a vacant office room In La Grande for years. iw: If ii ' Program at Arcade Tonight 1.
