to the rebuilding of the Arcade
there was no place for the legiti

last evening'. La, Grande people
turned out to regain tho lost habH
of attending a play when people
actually talk and 4ict; The drama
is of- three acts and it was well
played. Tho moral of it was the
danger of buying nn automobile

out the play one single machine
wrecked two families, sent them
from their comfortable homes to
cheap lodging houses and almost
jailed one of the husbands. But
the end of the play was very re
