(Special) There is a probability of Lakeport, me ueseriou Doom town, being revived, according l.o reports emanating from Curry County. Lakeport was founded in 1907. People flocked there with the understanding that Lakeport would be the coming seaport of Ore gon. The promoters said they would cut a channel through tho sandspit bdtween tho ocean and lake and imuke an influential haroar of the town. Then the bottom dropped out and, fiour years ago, there was not an inhabitant left in the place. The locality is an ideal one for a Summer resort, being surrounded by forest and stream, a fine lake beside Uie town, and the ocean only half a mile distant. S. R. Hayworth, of La Grnmde, has taken an option, accord ing to report, on the unsold property, and thinks of reopening the plaice, principally as a Summer resort. ,,.

The banquet last Friday night was a glittering success from every view point. Mr. and Mrs. Kloyd H. Wil- kins, the new proprietors of the New Jennings hotel, staged the forma! opening and invited us their guests hotelmen and women from the dilfor cnt towns and cities in Wallowa and Union counties. A large number re sponded and together with the people of Joseph and a large delegation from , Enterprise they gathered mound a banquet table that carried a menu of a metropolitan cafe. Speeches occupied the evening fol lowing the banquet until after mid night and then the social dance fol lowed which lasted well into the j morning. It was one of Joseph's' g!e!iicst .social events in the town's; , history and through it all ran the v.'in I I of good humor and neighborly spiiit' which is bound to tie the towns and i cities of Wallowa and Union counties 1 i closer together. The house guests fur the occasion , were Daniel Sommors of Elgin, J. F. Egonspcrgcr and wife of Wallowa Lake Park, 0. M. tioodman, mnnmrer a'though he had many enemies in both sections. He was the originator of the Mosby method of warfare; to use only picked men and to make each man seem a hundred. So dangerous was he to the North that he was declared an outlaw and denied the right of surrender at the end of the war. Cavalrymen searched for Mosby in we Virginia mountains until General Grant, appealed to by Mosby's wife ordered the oultlaiwry order cancelled. Colonel Mosibv started life nen.ee- ably enough at the Mosby plantation at Edgemotiit, Powhatan Countv. Va.. wnere ne was Born in Ho was graduated from the University of Vir ginia a iuu iicugea inwver at nine, teen in 1852. When the Confederacy called for trroops, Mosby enlisted with Gen. J. E. Staurt's First Virginia Cavalry. In Staurt and Mosby, tho rogimeftit fur nished the South two of its famous officers. Stuart, Mien Colonel, became cav airy leader for the South, and it was to turn that Mosby outlined the plan he had conceived for Mosbv's Men. In the winter of lSfi2-18f;t the iplnn was completed and launched. Mosby giving a roving commission, cire'ed to 'the rear of General Rurnsido, facirwr tbaiti of I,ec along the Rappahannock River. His raid there was the first of many that took tho heart out nf the Union men who felt the sling of his little band of avaspdike cavalrymen. It was Mosbv's nlan iro hit oniok 4 1 SHERRY THEATRE imintoit Arifnea tup cpao BROUGHT CLOSE HOME. I !4t Sherry's Theatre Has Hun Indeed Instructive. That La Grande people last night were on the front trenches of the Great War with reserved seats. It came about when the war pictures were shown at Sherry's. The hbrrors of it all was driven home with great force and tonight's attraction, being tRe last, will no doubt have a big run of people who want to see the war trom a safe angle. All the carnage of the catastrophe which pictures can tell, is shown on the screen. To actually see within a few.stepd of one's home the struggle between men and nations in Europe where death stalks day and night bringing vividly to the mind of the spectator the horrors of war is what the Wil liams Feature Fjlm company of Boise, I Idaho, has successfully made possible in these pictures. None are more spectacular; none tell so true a story of the terrible fighting that is flood ing ihlalf the world with blood. Not only are these moving pictures fas cinating but they tell a moral the follv of mortals struggling to kill one another. The pictures have well been named, "A Grand Review of the War in Eu rope." They wore taken by brave moving picture operators who took their cameras under the curtain of fire, facing many dangers, keeping sten with Death in order that they might, procure first hand the photo graphic story oi at least part ot tne war. lhcir success has made it -ios- sible for millions of people to have brought home to thorn a graphic re view of the great struggle. the Williams feature film com- Today Last Day For WAR Special Music and Effects TOMORROW ONLY' Mutual Masterpiece De Luxe THE DEATHLOCK Stirring Drama of Alaskan Adventure THURSDAY William Farnum in "THE BONDMAN" t I pany secured these films for Idaho and adjoining states and under its aus pices they are shown here. Thev are worth their weight in gold, but be lieving the people should be given an opportunity to secure closer insight of the European conflict, the company has made arrangements to show the pictures here at the nominal admis sion of 50 cents. Tho pictures or dinarily would be worth $2 a seat to anyone wishing to get a closer view of the mighty conflict across the ocean. I Richey Enters Wallowa County. J. E.
