Hex Hull To Be Scene of Jolly Crowd j
j Tomorrow Evening. '
I Everyone has heard of the dollar j
.dinner, the dollar this and the dollar j
(that, and occasionally many have at-1
tended a "dollar dance," tut not by I
that name. Usually some euphoneous
social title is given to every function,
but not so with the dt;nce to be Riven
tomorrow evening in Rex hall by the
ladies of the Catholic church. 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."
At last report today a large num
ber of tickets had been sold and
everything was in readiness for a big
time tomorrow evening the receipts
from which will swell the buihjiiig
fund.
The committee of ladies directly in
charge of this event is composed of
Mrs. P. A. Foley, Mrs. Norman Des
ilet, Misses Irene Murphy and Etta
Foley.

JUDG15 KNOWLES 'AFFIRMED.
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.

BIG CONVENTION TO BE HELD
IN LA GRANDE.
Splendid Speaking List Provided for
Three-Day Affair Here.
I Ji i f i
Mr. C. D. Emahiser, of the Oregon
Grocery company, is in Akron, Indi
ana, where he was called on account
of the serious illness of his father. He
was in Chicago on tho day of the prc
paiedness parade and took time to
write the Observer of that i-eat
event. He says:
"This is a big holiday in Chicago
everything is closed and all tho in
dustrial, commercial, social and polit
ical organizations are apparently
demonstrating their approval ot pre
paredness by joining the greatest pa
rade in the history of the city. The
number of people marching is esti
mated at 200,000. All surface cars
stopped at 8 o'clock this morning. An
uninterrupted highway is established
for the passage of the parade and the
hundreds of thousands who crowd the
sidewalks to view it. The parade
started at 8 this morning and will end
at 10 tonight.
"The G. O. P. is very much in evi
dence making final arrangements for
the big convention here next week."

"Best by Test
I After reading of so many people
i in our town who have been cured by
i Doan's Kidney Pills, the question na
Iturally arises: "Is this medicine
equally successful in our neighboring
I: towns?" Tho generous statement of
i this Union resident leaves no room
I i for doubt on this point.
! J. M. Johnson, proprietor ot Dar
' bor shop, Main street. Union, Ore.,
i says: "1 think constant standing
i weakened by kidneys, causing pain
( and soreness in my back. One day a
: customer who heard me complaining,
Itold me Doan's Kidney Pills were
! good and I got a box. I used them
but n short time before I was con
j vinred thnt tho man who recommead
ed them to mo knew what he wjs
talking nbout." (Statement given No-
vembcr 8th, 1907.)
I Over five years later, Mr. Johnson
said: "I use Doan's Kidney Pills oc
, wssionally and find them just the
l thing for irregul.ir kidney action and
j kidney ailments."

falls on the life-time of the Union
Stock show, the 43rd annual 3rande

conflict with the Stock show.

elaborate convention entertainment
has been provided and promised.
