That part of Oregon experienced five distinct earthquake shocks one night a week or ao ago. The first was while Ar thur was in the gym with the boya, just beginning a basketball practice. He was Jumping for the ball, when of a sudden it appeared to him that the walla of the gym were all in a twist, there was a peculiar sensation went sliding up and down his apinal column, and the aquaking of rafters and rumbling of the quake put ter ror into the bunch, who made a rapid exit into the street. It was their first experience of the aort, and Arthur statei that he waa not simply scared he waa terrorized. Following this at intervale there were four distinct shocks, but no aerfoua damage oc curred. Joseph Snyder returned home Fri day from a visit with hia aged fath er at the old home in northeast Mis souri. He waa absent from Heppner about three weeks, and during his stay in Missouri encountered the same pleasant weather we were en joying here during hia absence.

He had a very pleasant trip, going and coming, and enjoyed the visit with the home folks and old time friends. Hli father is very feeble, and he does not expect that he will live long. In a letter to this paper received thii week from James S. Carter he states that he is under the care of Dr. Kistner, and seems to be getting aiong quite well. The doctor, how ever, seems to think that Mr. Carter should be near at hand for i white yet, so he will remain in Portland to be in closer touch with the specialist should there be a turn for the worse of his ear trouble. A little cooler weather prevails now in the city, and Mr. Carter states that the rain has let up and they are having some clear weather, which is a pleasant change to a man from Eastern Oregon. County Agent Calkins departed on Tuesday for Pendleton, to take the train from there for Spokane with the Oregon wool growers going by special car to attend the National Woolgrowers convention He will also attend the Oregon Woolgrowers convention at Pendleton the end of thii week, the latter event following Immediately after the convention at Spokane.

Judge Comctt assessed a fine of 1150 to Harve Coxen, who on Monday brought in the missing still that he was using in making moonshine whis ky. The judge usually put on a heav ier assessment than thia for the of fense, but evidently let Coxen off because he made good in bringing in the still which he claimed was stolen from him. Mr. and Mrs. B. F. Swaggart of Lexington are now at Tiajuana, Mex ico, where Mr Swaggart has had a string of race horses that hava been making good for some time past. They expect to be there for about three weeks, and during their absence, Hen Roone, of Lexington, is looking after the stock on the Swaggart farm.

Tom Arnold, of Eight Mile, was do The Mushroom Poet. By A. S. AKERS. Mistaking the weather for beautiful Spring, The Mushroom Poet commences to sing. The weather, and also the state of the moon Doth ever control his melodious tune. When the tulip commences to show it's head. And hyacinth! waken and stir in their bed, Because of the sunshine and warm gentle rain, The poet's gray matter then stirs in his brain. He leaps with delight like a youth in his 'teens, Who first clambera into his well tailored jeans. He smiles on Miss Spring so sweetly, and then Expresses his love with his paper and pen. When lo, and behold I The snow Cometh again, And led by Jack Frost, who sprung from his den, He ilayi without mercy herb, flower and tree, Like Sherman's historical march to the sea He frowns with disgUBt upon hasty Miss Spring. Oh, how our hearts yearn for the In nocent thing! He scurries the country, not counting the cost, With death as his motive, this demon, Jack Frost. The Mushroom Poet looks on with surprise, His heart in a flutter, and tears in his eyes. He sees, with great anguish, Miss Spring disappear, Forgetting she came the wrong time of the year. And now that Bhe's gone, his com panion and mate, The Mushroom Poet bows down to his fate. He's chilled to the marrow, and all out of tune, He curses the weather, the sun and the moon. He firmly avows that he will never again Bu foolish enough to take up his pen And court such a flapper as hasty Miss Spring, But patiently wait for the real and true thing. All faith has he lost in the flowers and trees. And patiently waits for the birds and the bees. Prefering the feathered to the veg etable king, To show him the really and truly Miss Spring. Erik Bergstrom, a leading farmer of the Gooseberry country, was at tending to business matters in Hepp ner Swturdsy. Slat's Diary mm By ROSS FARQUHAR.
