The McMnrray Vocal Recital given
Tuesday evening at the opera house
was a musical treat. Mr. McMurray
was assisted by Miss Lacosta Man
gum, elocutionist Mrs. Walker, so
prano and Mrs. Maclean, acorn pa ni it
Each and every number is deserving
of special mention as they were all
excellent. Prof. McMurray Is a musi
cian ef acknowledged ability and too
much praise cannot be given either to
his vocal or instrumental pieces. Mrs.
Walker always delights her bearers
and on Tuesday evening was In good
voice. In a vocal recital much de
pends on the accompanist and in this
important part the professor was
furtunste in having Mrs. Maclean
beside at the piano. The opening
number of the program, "Little Brown
Baby" was pleasingly recited by Miss
Mang'iui and was greatiy enjoyed.
This was the fltst opportunity to
bear this gifted elocutionist afforded
to most of the people of Grants Pass.
It Is to be hoped that Prof. McMurray
will arrange for other recitals during
the winter.

M. E. Stnrtevant has come to the
conclusion that Grants Pass is ths
best place on earth aud therefore
good place to Invest money. Dniing
the last week he purchased ahonseand
lot on B street from Mrs. Alice Kin

son, two lots on B street from John
Hair and a lot on B street from Moss
and Williams. These parcbsies sdded
to his other holdings make Mr. Stnrte

Frank James left Thursday for
Williams Creek where be will look
after mining interests. He has been
spending several weeks in town while
recovering from the effects of an acci

ago. While working in a shaft on his
prospect back of the Jewett mines, a
rock, which had been loosened by the
first rains, fell, striking him In the
back. As this was the third time he
bad been injured in the same place,
the wound was a very pa'nful and
annoying one. When he left for
Williams Creek, however, he had al
most recovered.
