Bones of Many Buffalo in Malheur Lake
FIRE POSSIBLE ' CAUSE
' What actually killed a large
number of buffalo, the bones of
which" were found in the bottom
of Malheur Lake, Is the problem
that is being Investigated by Dr.
Hlbbard. pioneer dentist of Har
ney county, and a number of
persons living In the vicinity of
Burns. Dr. Hlbbard is a natural
ist and Is well known throughout
the central Oregon district.
Were the animals the victims
of disease, thirst, .swamp tire or
did they crowd onto the Ice and
fall through as has been tbe ease
of cattle daring the spring break
up? Dr. W. XI. Lytle. state vet
erinarian, who recently returned
i here from Burns, said the anl
' snals apparently met some unna
tural death as no evidence was
foand that they died from any
disease. An examination of the
boa as showed , no Indication of
dlalmycosis or lumpy . Jaw.
which has an affinity for boney
. tissue . and leaves a permanent
disease deformity mark.
.Neither was there any evi
dence to show that. these animals
had reached the stage of old
age decrepitude. The heads - of
the animals apparently were nor
mal at the time of their death,
and their upper Jaws were part
ly filled with teeth. Indicating
that they were' in- the prime of
life. The examination also dis

Glories of Blacksmith's
Shop Are Gone; Mitchell
Roneer Recalls History
THE DALLES, Ore.. (AP)
The smithy's shop of olden days,
where horseshoeing was the
chief business, has become a
thing just to be remembered and
talked about. This is the view
of D. V. Monroe, pioneer black
smith of Mitchell, here to visit
friends and to aid In promotion
of a more direct road from the
hinterland to the western part
of Oregon.
Monroe, native of Appanoose
county, Iowa, who when less
than two months old,- was taken
by his parents to the great Ore
gon country, is now 65 years old.

BAMBERGER BABY

Time Allays all Doubt
of
Mixed Babies' .True
Identities, Word
CHICAGO. (AP) Blood will
tell, as two families have found
eight months after the Watklns
Bamberger baby mix-up was a na
tional sensation.
And the Solomon decision of
Dr. Arnold Kegel, young Chicago
health commissioner, ranks as
somewhat of a 20th century dupli
cation of the sagacity of the an
cient kind of the Jews.
Both families, the William Wat-
kinses and the Charles Bamber
ger, are satisfied the children are
theirs, said Dr. Kegel. The Bam
berger boy has taken on the facial
and statute aspects or two otner
children, three and five years old,
and of the parents. The Watkins
es no longer live in Chicago.
The Watklns-Bamberger "mix-
us' began last June wnen dots
were born In the same hospital en
the same night to Mrs. Wat kins
and Mrs. Bamberger.'
When the Watkinses went home
from the hospital, two weeks lat
er, they found an adhesive on
their baby's back, bearing the
name Bamberger," and the Bam
berger child was marked "Wat-
kins.-
The Watklns" complaint tossed
the baby mix-up before the pub
lic In page-one headlines.. Joseph
Sabath of divorce fame was call
ed upon to settle the question. Dr.
Kegel finally took a hand and In
troduced! seven other physicians.
Through blood tests and physi
cal measurements, the health com
missioner adjudged which was a
Bamberger and which a Watklns.
There was some grumbling, but
the adjustment stood.
"No, we're tired of the affair
and want to be left alone," was
Bamberger's ' remark when asked
about his eight-months old son.
But he smilingly added: "He's a
Bamberger." . '

Monroe, set Linn county as his
goal. In 1872 he went to the
rich . grazing country' where be
and the boy learned the work of
cow 'punching on the large Gill-
man, French and Company
ranch. Monroe then established
a blacksmith shop at Mitchell on
the route of the old Dalles Mili
tary highway over which freight
wagons and stage coaches moved
between The Dalles and Canyon
City, center of the early days of
gold mining.
"In those days." Monroe said,
we had all we could do to keep
the teams of the freighters and
stage coach people ' properly
shod." Today his blacksmith
shop is mainly a garage, i "We
do a fair business, he continued.
fitting up shoes for the pack
outfits of the sheep ranches.
These are carried along and put
on the horses at .the camps."
Because of his unusual mem
ory for dates and his person ac
quaintance with pioneer -inci
dents, Monroe has become the
historian of the Wheeler country.
He recalled that Mitchell was es
tablished as a postoffice In 1872
or 1874. It was named, for Unit
ed States Senator Mitchell.
Wheeler county got Its name
from Henry Wheeler, pioneer
stage coach driver, be said, -who
was attacked by Indians one day
near the present town of Mitch
ell. The stage carried a large
shipment of gold and 110,000 in
greenbacks which were being
shipped from Canyon City to The
Dalles.,
The Indians fired on Wheeler
and - his express guard, a man
named Payne. A bullet struck
Wheeler In the cheek, passing
through his face and carrying
away part of his Jawbone. The
two men, however, managed to
cut loose two of their horses and
escaped. Wheeler was brought
to The Dalles where he was giv
en surgical aid. The Indians
took the gold but left the green
backs, not knowing their value.

One chain says they cheaner than anyone else- in
the whole country. Whew! If one could believe that
there'd be no use of anyone else trying, and this coun
try'd soon be like a lot of others we read about.
in our little sojourn of 40-orld years (not too heavy on
the "odd," folks) there hasn't yet been a line of super
humans developed, even th ovarii one is asked to believe
there has been, that is if one is expected to believe some
of the ads a few of the chain stores scribble for the bene
fit of those not so gifted (or should I say conceited) as to
believe they're super-human. Why folks, if we made
such a statement as that you'd know good'n well we
didn't believe it when we me it. That's all hooey (we
mean one firm havin' super-human ability).
Anyway we'd rather be like the folks of our own community and have them feel that
our stores were good stores to buy their food from, than to be known all over the whole
country as bein' super-human or something (accent on the something:).
I. rather suspect, though, that the chains making such statements are gifted with a larg
er portion of ego than is necessary (or maybe it's gab they've got a lot of). One of
the main reasons we don't sell everything cheaper is because we don't sell all the cheap
stuff offered for sale or should we say offered as bait.
