Nancy's father, thinking a sea trip will bring back the color to his daugh ter's face, fading because of the news of Bob's contemplated departure, takes her with him on his return voy age to Japan. Aboard this same ship Bob conceals himself, and days later makes known his presence. Thus, the unexpectedly reunited lovers are happy in their companionship, and ut terly unaware of the impending dis aster. .; Prior to his sailing, Bob has bought from a destitute sailor the Sacied Pearl, who has told him the mysteri ous legend connected with it. Bob, j while unbelieving the story, has giv en the pearl to Nancy, who always wears it about her neck. -Adv. 12-21-lt MARIE DQRQ WHITE PEARL Today only at the Arcade Marie Doro will appear in the "White Pearl." This is one of Daniel Froh man'a extraordinary productions. On a Japanese island the Sacred Pearl of Buddha is stolen by a China man, who later finds employment on a ship sailing for America. The in habitants of the island, extremely superstitious by nature, believe that the loss of the sacred jewel will bring them unhappiness, and they pray daily that it be returned to them. Meanwhile, in America, Nancy, the daughter of Capt. Marvell, awaits her father's return from the Orient, to tell him the good news of her love for Robert Alden, son of the wealthy tea importer.

Buckley, general superintend ent for the O.-W. was in - La Grando this morning conferring with his lien tenants in this city. "Unloading Christmas trees is the popular program of the hour in la Grande," as the Bngville Bugle would say. The supply of excellent trees for this purpose is so close at hand that effort is not large to pro cure a fine tree for the kids every year. Have you seen the dog hitched sin gle to the sled and the round faced boy riding behind him all over the I io wn. wnue ine uoy is nappy, su is ' the dog he's having the time of his .life.
