In writing hia parent! thia week,
Arthur Campbell, ion of Judge arid
Mm. W. T. Campbell, who la teaching
at Lakevlew thia winter, describes
hit sensations while the earth ia be
ing shaken by a tremblor. 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
state! that farmers were busy in the
fields in Missouri and Kansas, in
many places plowing was going on,
and in all, timea appear quite pros
perous. 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.

rapid.'

of work for the past few years in
Morrow county.
Judge Comctt assessed a fine of
1150 to Harve Coxen, who on Monday
brought in the missing still that he

fense, but evidently let Coxen off

the still which he claimed was stolen
from him.

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
