Nu. 31, G. A. R., department of Oregon,
will hold a public installation of newly
elected officers of post, on the evening of
Jan. 14, 1892, also an old-fashioned army
supper, pork and beans, coffee, etc

A Small Blaze. Wednesday morning
th cry of "fire" was raised just below
the Gazette office, and some tall rustling
was done for buokets, even before many
knew just where the fire was. Arthur
Smith, the jeweler, had occasion to use
some benzine, dropping a little on the
floor. In lighting hiB aloobol lamp a
few moments after, he threw the matob
down on the floor, the blaze communi
cating to the benzine, running under the
counter, breaking a bottle whioh was
full of the liquid. Of oourse this added to
the blaze, which reached well np to the
oeilmg. Prompt action stopped it in its
incipienoy and prevented a big fire.
What the Typk Said. The type
made the Gazette say in onr New Year's
edition that Ed. Day sheared 6,(00
pounds of wool off 5,000 sheep, instead of
60,000 pounds off that number, and that
C. A. Rhea bad 23.000 acres of land iu
Morrow county, instead of 2,500. It is
hardly necessary to state that these are
purely typographical errors, but as our
attention has been oalled to them, do so,
that the publia may not mistake the er
rors for supposed facts. In the haste
aud overwork required to get oat the edi
tion, other errors may appear, but it
can't be helped. For the greater part of
last week our whole force worked night
and day.
The Leak Cab. The Leak advertising
car arrived at Heppner Tuesday eve, and
yesterday and last night was visited by
large part of Heppner'a population
The oar is nicely lighted by eleotricity,
presenting an attractive appearanoe'
The outside of the oar was elaborately
decorated last evening by cases contain
ing exhibits of minerals, fruits and views
of Plaoer county, Calif. Inside the oar
was seen a greater collection, wonderful
as it was extensive. The oar is in charge
of gentlemen who are ever anxious to
give all possible information concerning
Plaoer county. Mrs. Leak accompanies
the exhibit and our reporter found her a
very pleasant lady indeed.
K. of P Inbtallation. On Tuesday
evening Inst qnite a number of tli
friends of Doric Lodge, including wives
and children of members, were present
to witness the open installation. Inter
spersed here and there with both instru
mental and vocal music, the installation
exercises were rendered most pleasing.
After the exercises, a grand banquet was
partaken of to the enjoyment of all,
closing with remarks from visitors and
brothers. The officers installed on that
occasion were: Einil Toruz, O. C. ; H.
Scherzinger. V. C; W. L. Saling, Pre
