Klgiins roughly estimate today
that over $l!0ii was cleared by the

about $ ft tu is still left to be rais m1.
Tim efforts of the chautauqua
association and the play cast may
not have resulted in completely
wiping out the debt but they did
ri suit in giving La Grande people
an excellent play, one that drew i
two thirds house last night am
which is the subject of much prais-
by jfhose who uilmss

"Lion,

Th it final pres'-niation of I he
