Is to Move in Where Co-Operative torney Brandeis for Justice of the
Store Is Moving Out of Now. i Supreme Court.
The J. G. Snodgrass grocery "tore
is to move into the GangiofT building
now being vacated by the Oregon Co
operative company. The "Co-ops'
are moving out now to occupy th
Gardinier building adjoining the Ar
cade theatre, and it will probably be
a week before Mr. Snodgrass begins
to move his shelves and equipment.
The task is a big one .and will entail
much work.
"By the time we get shifted about
in our new quarters we expect to have
the finest grocery store in Eastern
Oregon" said Mr. Snodgrass today in
announcing definitely his plans to
move. "The new store room is am
ply large, the windows are up to date,
and when our stock is moved in and
arranged, we will have no hesitancy
in saying that our store will be as at
tractive as anv in the up-state dis
trict." A long period of time has been put
in the grocery bu-tinesis in the Stew
ard building. Mr. Snodgrass began
to learn the business with K. E. Ro
mig in the place now occupied by the
Harris Art store. This was 17 years
ago. Shortly after that Mr. Romip
moved to the Huntington block and
from there back to the Steward
building and formed the partnership
of Grandy & Romig. This was 11
years ago. Staples & Romig succeed' d
te former firm, and eight years age
Mr. Snodgrais took over the business
himself. Hence a 14-year term of
business will have been concluded in
one house when the move takes place.
"I shall use the mezsnnine floor in
the new quarters partly for rest rooms
for shoppers and pstrons." announced
Mr. Snodgrass today. "This will af
ford conveniences long needed and we
expect to make this feature attrac
tive and convenient, even though thr
cost be considerable.

jury will probe the Otay dam disaster
the prosecuting attorney stated to
day noon.
One more body was recovered late
this morning, making a total of twelve
thus far recovered. Earlier state
ments that a hundred have been
drowned in the San Diego floods ar-i
believed to be untrue. The exact
number of deaths will not be deter
mined until the coroner reports.
Gold Fish Have Brains.
Marion, Jan. 31. Edwin P. Haugh
ton, local natural scientist, today in
formed the world that goldfish have
brains, Haughton owns an aquarium
of trained goldfish which he snys 3
hns educated from a naturally low
mentality to a high state of intel
lectuality, thereby proving that gold
fish have brains if one just takes the
trouble to develop 'em. Haughton
has trained his goldfish to answer the
dinner bell. When he rings, the fis'i
dart to the surface, their mouths wide
open, for their daily feed. Haugh
ton's aquarium is made of concrete,
12 feet in diameter and several feet
in depth. In the course of a long
period of instruction, Haughton says,
the fish were taught to come to the
surface in summer and to a hole in
the ice in winter, by the ringing of
u tiny bell. This is one of many evi
dences of mentality that Haughton
says the fishes show.
THE PACIFIC
PEFJRLESS HAWAIIAN'S TO BE
AT "Y" TONIGHT.
Entertainment Begins at 8:45 lo Give
All a Chance.
A musical treat is in store for the
music lovers of La Grande, with the
coming of the Peerless Hawaiian
Players and Singers. The company
has played in nearly all of the prin
cipal cities in the west, and have just
finished a two evenings engagement at
Pendleton where they had a crowded
house both evenings. Their singing
is first class, and the instrumental
music is in a class by itself. The Ha
waiian music is full of sympathetic
harmony, and when rendered by the
natives themselves, is beautiful in the
extreme. Through the numbers that
iare rendered they take one, as it were,
to the Island amid the palms, and
there teach us something of the na
jture and of the land in which they live.
I The entertainment will start in the
Y. , M. C. A. ubout eight forty-five,
