Mrs. Dr. Hubbard is visiting with her friend, Mrs. Osborne Richins. for, a few days. Her husband. Dr. Hub bard, is well known in La Grande having been in practice there, a few years ago and is now located in Idaho. They like the old Grande Ronde better than their new location. Mr. and Mrs. Scibird, Mr. and Mrs. Brown, Dr. and Mrs. Law, Mrs. Wur sham and children were La Grande vis itors last Saturday. Some of tfiem took in the chautauqua and report a good time. Everyone, especially the farmers are in the midst of their hayin? and we all want the rain to keep off until we are all through. Several had their hay cut down before the heavy rains came in and it is the worse for the wetting it got or rather soaking. The hay crop is unusually big and nothing will b; lost in the long run by the excessive rainfall we have bad.-. Grain is looking fine and Grande Ronde gives the promise of one of the heaviest crops that she has ever had. Owing to the heavy rains the grain on some of the farms was grow ing: si rank that it had besrun to fall but the warm suushine of the oast few days is remedying that and the grain never looked better than now. Owing to the threatening weather and bad roads quite a number of our citizens were kept at home on the 4th of July. Several were planning to go t Baker, Elgin, La Grande and other nlaces ht cave it ud and staved at home. There were several family pic-. nics ana reunions. In the evening quite a number of people gathered on the streets and had a celebration of thpir own that hd not hoen H'-"-;- Price 25c Kickapoo Indian Medicine Co., Philadelphia and St Louis.

Then, when all was quiet, the pad lock on the back store door was brok en, a steel rule was slipped in the side of the door and the iron bar was raised. Afterwards they stood upon something and cut a hole through so they could get an arm in and shoot the bolt, thus fyininqr admission. , While the work indicates that it was done by professionals in possession of a "jimmy" for forcing the doors, yet it is thought that if mr,y be some lo cal persons, so a lookout is being carefully kept bv the irffiwrs, and the outside officers m nearby counties were notified.
