Masons Banquet.
Last Saturday evening being the
time of rt gular stated communica
tion of Heppner Lodge No. 69,
there was a goodly turn out of the
members, both resident and visit
ing. It had been previouslyar-
ranged to give a small reception to
P. 0. Borg, a patriarch of Heppner
Lodgp, and a faithful stand-by of
this order. Brother Burg expects
soon to leave Heppner and take up
his residence in the city of Port
land, and because of his faithfulness
and great interest in the work of
the Masonic order here it was
thought proper and right to give
bi'n a farewell reception. After
tbe close of lodge the members
passed into the banquet hall and
sat down to a splendid repast pre
pared uncW tho supervision o
Messrs. H. A. Emerson and C. C,
Patterson, and after partaking to
the full of the viands, an address
by Attorney C. E. Woodson, appro
priate to the occasion was delivered
in a pleasing and taking manner,
and there was also many toasts to
Mr. Borg and high tribute paid to
him as a man and Mason, to all of
which be feelingly responded with
words of appreciation. Mr. and
Mrs. Borg will leave shortly for
Portland, and they will be greatly
missad from the social and lodge
circles of Heppner.

There has oeen some dickering
in the sheep market recently, and
prospects for more deals are begin

Lafe Penland delivered 4500 head
of half-breed Lincoln lambs this
week to J. L. Underwood of North
Yakima. These sheep were driveD
to Wallula and put across the
river there and onto the range of
Coffin Bros. This was a choice
bunch of stuff and went at 2.25
per head. Other deals are pend
ing and sales will likely be ma'de
any day at about the above figure,
in fact Mr. Underwood desires to
buy some 5000 or 6000 more if he
can get the grade he wants. Some
cobtiactain aged stuff have been
made for delivery after lambing
and shearing, and there has also
been some transfers ttmong local

School Notes.
By E. Notson. Co. Bohool Supt.
The annual teachers' institute
will be held at Heppner, Nov. 6, 7,
and 8. Beginning on Monday may
seem a little inconvenient for some
of the teachers, but in order to
secure the services of the insruct-
ors who are going from one institute
to another, it was necessary to
accept the dates named by the
committee of superintendents. It
is probable that the school board
convention will be held the last
half day in connection with the
institute.
Last Friday, I visited the school
in district No. 27. W. M. Sanders

cloak-room has been built; the
schoolhouse has been painted; new
adjustable desks have been pur
chased; a closed water-tank has
been provided; some new black
board has been added; and a fine
flag floats from a new flagstaff on
the building, A new stoye, sur
rounded by a jacket, will be placed
in the school-room within a few
days. The pupils of this school do
some excellent work in drawing
and water colors. They also have
a most interesting spelling match,

Gets Another Horse.
John Olden recentyl lost his fine
imported Shire stallion, its death
apparenly being tbe result of lung
fever. This animal was purchased
early last spring from A. C. Ruby
& Co., and on Tuesday of last week
f. Olden received at Iieppner
another horse of the same breed
from thia Company. It is the
opinion of many who have seen the
animal that he is supeior in many
points to the one that died.
