They are going to give n "dollar dance" and announce the fact in the first breath. The dollar is the business end of the undertaking, and the reason there is to be dollars connected with this party is because the Catholic building fund needs the money, it is claimed, and there is no use to con ceal facts. But there is a social fell ture planned for tomorrow night in connection with raising this important dollar, that will surely please all. .Ex cedent music has been secured, and aside from that there will be some special numbers of exceptional in terest. - Some of La Grande's best talent has been enlisted to help make this an evening different in many ways, and yet to carry the good old time danc ing "pep."

Water Right Case Originally in the , District Court. CRIPPEN SENTENCED. (Continued From Page One) tried in municipal court on a charge of conducting a nuisance. ' That Crippen didn't use the con n-oction thus manufactured for his own use solely is the belief of author ities and his severe punishment is based on that premise. One small tan of the powder is guaranteed to make five gallons of so-called beer, and he had can after can in his pos Bsssion tho authorities say. Further more, liberal case packages of whis key shipments sent to others than himself, but found on his premises, lead the authorities to believe that with conspiracy of others the plant was able to rig up beer with more than the prescribed "kick" to it.
