CIRCUS DAY OBDERLY.
,. .;
But Two Arrests Hade During Dny,
Holdnp Last Night. '.
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.
