Tor Todaj THY KKEI'BR: Tho Lord is. thy keeper; the Lonl is thy shade upon thy ri,'ht hand. Psalm 121 :5. Appreciated The La Grando band gave its first public concert yesterday afternoon in the Arcade theatre. It was thorough ly appreciated. The theatre was fill ed almost an hour before tho concert began and a happy crowd of good people waited with expectation for the organization to render its first uclcctlon. Every number was excellent, show ing the work the bund is doing in tin way of practice in order that the city may have music in tho general schcnie- of life. The leader, Andrew Loncy, recognized among the very best, ws; proud of his band, as ho had u right to be. But, let it be known now thai l.a Grande as u community is also proui of tho band. The coming summer wil witness many concerts which will ud greatly to Jji (irnnde's social life.

The. re port Is occasionally emphasized 15 tho alatement that In six ninntlii money will again he the1 chonpos' thhig on the market. If these statements are true, o tiny eonslderahlo part of them art true, it means re-Inflation in the United Slates. It means that in stead of everything coming down. Iheru will he an upward trend 01 prices of everything from farm ti factory. Should the report prove correct what conclusion Is there to 1 drawn? Tho Evuning Observer firm ly bolievoB that they mean In alm plo hiumiaco that the wloldcrs ol wealth In Walt street, ultliniigh starting out to make their dnltai worth three, liave decided they are choking the producing sections and have decided to t ike their feet ofl thu brakes and thus letting the money flow more freely.

One day at noon in the month of June The old gray mat slipped and fell At the grunite slido There the trail's not wide r And they thought she'd gone to hell. On a narrow ledge at the very edge ' UI a cnasm that took your breath Ey a chance divine she struck a pine That saved her, sudden death. j With nothing wbrse than a frenzied j curse " " j Old Steve unpacked the mare, ! Got her by the tail, put her on the trail With a little less hide and hair. Three times she flopped, three times was stopped T-r liy an intervening 5ieaven.
