The prolonged ringing of the fire bell a little after 11 oclock on Tues day night created a lot of excitement among the Heppner citizens. A fire had got started in the wood shed at the Clint Gilliam residence, west Church street, and before assistance could arrive the little building was burned to the ground. The Gilliam residence, as well as the Fred Lucas house adjoining were each scorched some and there would have been a lively conflagration had the fire got a good start. Tne houses are close together In this district and only the prompt work of the volunteer firemen saved the city a destructive blaze. We did not learn just how the fire started. CLEAN AND WHOLESOME 1 SONG PLAYS Di DEMAND Retire From Business. Ralos and Harry Johnson have re tired from the butcher business In Heppner, and this week closed up their shop. The cold storage plant has been disposed of to the Morrow County Creamery Co., and we under stand it is the intention ot this con cern to occupy the building vacated by Johnson Bros. Owing to the sick ness of Mrs. Ralph Johnson, who Is now In Walla Walla undergoing treat. ment, it was found necessary that Mr. Johnson retire from business here. The many friends of the John son boys regret that they have been compelled to go out of business In this city, where they were enjoying a good trade. 4 , , ' : Nell Twoney's dramatization of Gene Stratton-Porter's famous novel "Freckles," with all of its familiar characters and illusive scenes will be presented for the first time at the Op era House, Heppner, Sunday, Nov. 4; The trouble, time and expense nec essary in staging a dramatlzaztion of some popular novel must be under stood to be appreciated.
