yoL 24 HEPPNER, OREGON, THURSDAY, fliJNE, 21 1909 NO. 11GL HEPPNER'S BIG CELEBRATION Games, Sports and - Enter tainment for all. Arrangements for Heppner's big Fourth of July celebration are pro greasing with much satisfaction to the different committees in charge. Sports, games, fun and amuse ment for all for two days on July 2d and 3d. The display of fireworks alone will be worth coming to see. The illuminations and pyrotechnic scenes will be a rare sight for a town the size of Heppner. While the fireworks are very expensive, the committee feels that the people are entitled to something good and n onofial fuat.nrA will be made of V.,.". this display. Another expensive part of the entertainment will be the music. To bring a first class band for a distauce of 300 miles will be no email expense, but Heppner must have the best and this is the reason that the OAC Military Band was employed. In both street and con cert work this aggregation will cer tainly please all. The fact that this band was employed at the A-Y-P exposition at 8eattle and also at the Portland Bose festival id a pretty good recommendation. The parade will be a big one. Judge R. R., Butler, who will de liver the addreas is a gifted orator. The platform exercises on the fore noon of the first day will be inter esting. There will be something to see every minute of the time during the two days. For the horse races there will be some good horses entered. There ia now talk of a match race between two of Eastern Oregon's crack racers. For the broncho riding, some of the worst buckers of the country will be here and they will be mounted by the best riders in the country. In the way of baseball there will be a series of games for a good fat purse, and the best teams in Mor low and Gilliam counties will com pete for the prizes. Everybody in Heppner will use every means possible to show the visitors a good time. Come to Heppner and eojoy yourselves on the Fourth. You are invited and you cannot help but have a good time. Oregon is growing so fast that the landmarks are falling one by one as they stand in the way of progress. The latest' illustration is the fellipg of a historic old oak tree at St. Helens during the last week that sheltered the Lewis and Clark expedition on its famous voyage of exploration over 100 years ago. The location of a big new sawmill on the river bank made it necepsary to remove the old tree. The trunk was 51 inches iu diameter and a count of the riDgs indicated the age of the tree was 119 years.

The raolo-drama entitled "Valley Fajm'' was presented in a very pleasing manner at Roberts' opera house Tuesday evening by home talent. The play is a pretty story con- taining enough pathos intermixed with humor to be interesting, Hetty Holcomb, a pretty country girl, iB loved by Harald Rutledge who takes her to his richly fur nished home in New York, where she is sadly mistreated by a haughty mother-in-law and a woman who seeks to win her huaband. . Returning to the farm she is fol lowed by 'her husband who has realized her wrongs and they are happily united. The eurroundiDg incidents in making up the story furnish both humor and emotion and the delin eation by the different characters was very good. Jesa Hale as Harold Rutledge, took the heavy part in a very cred itable manner. Hetty Holcomb, the leading lady, taken by Miss Hazel Gilliam, pre sented some very clever emotional work in delineating the part of the wronged wife, Maurice Frye, who took the part of Silas Holcomb, the down East farmer, certainly played the part in a manner that was real, furnish ing much merriment and laughter for the large audience. In fact, Cecil Hale as Perry Dean, Johu Bueb as David Hil dreth. Arthur Crawford as Azariah Keep, Mr. Campbell as Jennings, Lulu Campbell aa Isabel " Carney, Josephine Richardson as Almira Holcomb, Mrs Wilbur Swaggart as Mrs. Rutledge, Blanche Carter as Liza Ann Tucker, and Venice Jones as Verbena, all took their parts in a very creditable manner and gave splendid support in pre senting the drama. The special song by Lutie Reed and the buck and wing dance by Jess Hale were enjoyable features of the evening's entertainment. Pneumonia Follows La tirlppe.

The city fathers were all present with the exception of Mavor Farns worth. In the absence of tb mayor, Councilman Nobla acted aB chairman of the board. The only business that, appeared before the council was the intro duction of ordinances numbered 16 and 17. One of the measures wan drawn for the purpose of imposing a city tax upon pastimes and p aces of amusement where such soft drinks as "near beer'' and other stomach washes are diepensed. The ordinance met the sad fate of beirjg laid on the table indefinitely. The other ordinance was to pro vide a city tax on business enter prises considered of a temporary nature. This ordinance met the same fate of the first one presented. Heppner Won Game.

An urgent invitation from the churches and pastors participating, as well as from the general com mittee, is made to the general pub lic to attend each of these services.
