Sheriff McDuffee arrived in town
this morning having in custody Rob
ert Myrick of Umatilla, Oregon, his
Buick truck and an elaborate moon
shine outfit, all of which was captur
ed last evening at Castle Rock just
as Myrick was about ready to take
leave for other parts.
The authorities here had been giv
en a tip that there was an outfit be
ing operated out on Blalock island
in the river just opposite Castle Rock
and they were also' given a pretty
thorough inventory of the outfit. All
of this, practically, was loaded on
the Myrick car, and it is presumed
that the officers have all of the para
phernalia with the exception of two
boilers.
One coper boiler of about 30 gal
lons acpacity, eight copper coils,
which went to make up a complete
cooling system, a kit of plumbers
tools, camp outfit with large tent,
cooking utensils, carpenters tools,
pressure tank for lights, etc., togethr
er with a supply of chemicals for
rectifying purposes are ,among the
articles captured.
Myrick now occupies a cell at the
county jail, awaiting investigation,
he being the only one of the parties
interested that Sheriff McDuffee
could get hold of. He doubtless had
other assistants, but they succeeded
in getting away. The coming of the
sheriff had doubtless been tipped off
to them, and had McDuffee been just
a few minutes later getting on the
ground, Myrick would have been off ;
he was getting water from the river
to fill up his radiator when the sher
iff came upon the scene.
My rick's home is at Umatilla. He
is known at Heppner as he used to
run a woodsaw here.
A big rain is falling all over the
Morrow county country today; it be
gan during the night, is steadily com
ing down, and will do an immense
amount of good to growing crops.
Snov i.- reported to have fallen at
the edge of the timber l'ne, but will
not remain long. From indications
the rain is general over the county.
Dinner To Ex-Service Men
By Heppner Legion Post
There will be a banquet to the ex
service men given by the Heppner
Post, No. 87, American Legion on
Saturday evening. The banquet will
be served at Elkhorn restaurant, and
every ex-service man in Morrow
county is invited, whether a mem
ber of the Legion or not. A big fea
ture of the feed will be lots of fried
spring chicken, and then many things
of interest will be discussed. In
fact there is to be a general love
feast and good time, with the mem
bers of Boardman and lone posts as
special guests of Heppner post.
Come out, every ex-service man, and
have slum with Heppner Post No.
87; you are to be their guests on
this occasion.

Noted Artist Trio to Appear Here
Steelman Marriner - Taylor Company Will Be Delightful
Feature of Coming Chautauqua
E) 4
Three musical artists of more than passing note are Miss Miriam Steel
man, Miss Leslie Taylor, and Mr. Guy Marriner, who comprise the Stoelinan-Marrlncr-Taylor
Trio, to be enjoyed by Chautauqua music lovers the opening
day. Theirs Is an artist program In every sense of the word a program of
worth-while music, plnyed In a way that bespeaks sound musicianship and most
delightful artistry. Mlsa Miriam Steelman, Is a real dramatic soprano, who
has met with brilliant success In concert and oratorio work throughout the
Eastern states. Miss Leslie Taylor Is a student of the great violin master,
Auer, and one of his exceptionally talented pupils. She, too, Is a brilliant re
cltullst. Guy Marriner, pianist, Is a young New Zenlnnder, of whom the Syd
ney, (Australia) Herald said : "He Is an exceptionally brilliant young pianist"
At Chautauqua on the first day,
John Garside, aged 72 years, died
suddenly at his abode in one of the
buildings on the fjr grounds where
the county has its road machinery
stored, on Tuesday, but just at what
hour is not known as the body was
not discovered until early in the af
ternoon. Mr. Garside had charge of the ma
chinery buildings as caretaker for
the county. He arose at about his
usual hour Tuesday morning and was
seen about the premises. A little
later he retired again, evidently suf
fering from some pain, as he had
taken a hot iron to bed with him
which was found lying by his side.
He had not been very well for sev
eral days but his condition was not
thought serious.
Deceased leaves no near relatives
that are known. He was a cousin
of the late Mrs. Jas. Simons and the
members of that family are all the
relatives he has. He has resided in
Heppner for many years and was a
familiar character about town; being
somewhat of a recluse he was not
thought to have any particular means
but a um of money was found in
his trunk and it is said that he had
a considerable sum of money, am
ounting to several thousand dollars
on deposit in one of the banks in
Heppner.
Johnny Garside was a native of
Weston, Piatt county, Missouri, and
was aged about 72 years, as near as
his relatives here can figure. He
was a man of good habits, quiet and
inoffensive and given to attend to his
own business in a manner that com
mended him to all that knew him.
He was a general handy man and
was called upon to perform many
commonplace duties about town and
was always faithful and reliable. His
funeral will be held from the Feder
ated church at 2 p. m. today, Rev. E.
L. Moore officiating.
YOUNG HEPPNER WOMAN
ANNOUNCES ENGAGEMENT
Oregon Agricultural College, May
19. The engagement of Helen Bar
ratt, junior in home economics at
Oregon Agricultural college, to Ervin
Reiman of St. Maries, Idaho, senior
in agriculture, has been announced.
Miss Barratt, daughter of VV. B.
Barratt, is popular among her many
friends at college. Mr. Reiman is
a member of Sigma Gamma fratern
ity and also shares a wide circle of
friends. Both students have been ac
tive in student body activities.
The announcement was made
known at a party at which Miss Bar
ratt entertained her girl friends. A
toy balloon concealed paper hearts
with the names of the engaged cou
ple written on them. The news which
was revealed when the balloon was
bursted, was a surprise to all.
Barney Dorerty was in the city yes
terday from his Sand Hollow ranch.
He reports everything coming along
well down that way.
MONEY FOR STREET IM
PROVEMENT YOTED DOWN
At Lexington on last Monday there
was a special election held for the
purpose of authorizing the city coun
cil to borrow $3000 to make some
needed street improvements. The
proposition came up to borrow the
money on a straight note on five
years' time, and this did not exactly
suit the majority of the taxpayers
of the city and it was voted down.
We understand, however, that the
citizens there are not averse to the
improvements, and the question will
come up again on a bond issue and
it will doubtless carry. The people
there are anxious to have the work
done while they can secure crushed
rock from the highway contractors
at a reasonable figure, and another
vote will be taken just as soon as the
necessary preliminaries can be ar
ranged. Lucy T. Wedidng, who has been
teaching the past year in the high
school at Arlington, is visiting with
friends in Heppner, having finished
her school work. She expects to
spend the summer here.

DEPUTY STATE FIRE
T
A few weeks since a very careful
survey of Heppner was made by
Deputy State Fire Marshals Sykes,
Stokes and Gleason, and the follow
ing is a copy of the report they have1
turned into the office of A. C. Barber,
state fire marshal, and is reproduced
here for the benefit of the citizens
of this city. The report would seem
to be entirely fair and is complete
as to details:
Imtradaettoa.
Heppner ti a city with a population of
one thousand three hundred twenty
four, located In the central part of
I Morrow county, of which It is the coun
ty seat It is the terminus of the Hepp
ner branch of the O.-W. R. ft N. rail
way and willt in the near future be
connected with the Columbia highway
by an Improved state highway. The
resources of the surrounding country
are agriculture and stock raising prin
cipally. The city has an approximate
valuation of $1,002,961.00 and the cur
rent rate of taxation Is .033. The pres
ent city indebtedness is 1115,000 and
the amount of deposits In the two
banks 1850,000.
Geaeral Comdltlona
The city Is built on slightly sloping
ground In a deep valley on the banks
of Willow creek. The creek divides
part of the residential district from
the business district The surrounding
country side is very hilly, open, untlm-
bered and devoted to grazing and farm
ing. The buildings in the fire district are
generally well Improved and eighty per
cent of Are resisting construction and
about one-half are two stories or high
er. There are two ranges of frame
construction which could easily be ma
terial for a conflagration. The streets
are wide with macadamized surface
and supplemented with alleys. Most
all of the sidowalks are of cement The
main streets run north and south, par
allel with the valley and creek.
The elevation of the city above sea
level is one thousand nine hundred fifty
feet. The weather conditions are ra
ther severe. The maximum temperature
is 102 degrees, minimum zero. The av
erage annual rainfall is fourteen inches.
There is much prevailing summer wind
from north to northwest The season
from July to October is usually very
dry.
The city has suffered Txth severe
flood and fire in the past The position
of the city is the very path of flood,
together with the general character of
the surrounding country makes this a
constant danger.
The Inspection revealed the condi
tions in regard to rubbish and house
keeping generally to be very good. A
great deal of defective electrical wir
ing was found, owing to the fact that
the city has never adopted an electrical
ordinance. There Is also a great deal
of overhead wiring In the city.
Summary of Inspectloa
13 Defective wiring.
22 Rubbish and trash.
2 Floors and walls unprotected from
stove.
3 Gasoline kept In unsafe manner.
1 Number of drip pans for waste oil
ordered.
1 Without proper Are escapes
1 without proper fire exit signs and
lights.
21 Chimneys found on brackets.
9 Places where smoking was prohi
bited. 20 Fire extinguishers ordered.
Water System and Source.
The water system is owned and oper
ated by the city. It was put Into op
eration in November, 1920. The source
of supply is Willow creek, twelve miles
southeast and at an elevation of one
thousand feet above the city level.
The Intake Is from a small concrete
dam across Willow creek. The water
Is conveyed by gravity through an
eight inch main, nine miles of concrete
and three miles of machine wound red
wood, and delivered direct to the dis
tribution system, connecting at Main
and Canyon streets. There is an over
flow at Monahans ranch, one and one
half miles from the city, at an eleva
tion of one hundred feet This head
yields pressure of forty-three pounds.
This overflow can be closed, however,
which doubles the static pressure.
There are two reservoirs, one an open
concrete of 140,000 gallons capacity and
one stone and concrete of 140,000 gal
Ions capacity, located a short distance
above the city on a hill at an elevation
of one hundred feet. They are con
nected with a Y and an eight Inch main
to the distribution system at Main and
Canyon streets. The reservoirs are
kept filled at all times for an emergen
cy supply.
There is also an emergency concrete
reservoir at the power house, contain
lng 67,000 gallons ot water, with i
Fairbanks-MorBe duplex steam pump of
three hundred gallons per minute cap
aclty, available for use at any time.
The distribution system consists of
an eight Inch main on Main street to
May street and a six Inch main thence
to Cohn warehouse, near the railway
station. The largest laterals are three
Inch and four Inch and some still small
er. There are few dead ends. There
are forty-seven hydrants as follows:
Twenty-nine home made, thirteen
Ludlow, three Corey, and two Water
ous. The standard hydrants were In
fair condition, but the home made ones
were not so good. The testa revealed
the normal static pressure to be forty
four pounds Flowing tests on the three
inch main near where the Christian
church fire occurred gave the follow
ing readings; 1 1-8 Inch tip on hydrant
18 pounds pressure; two 1 1-8 Inch noz
zles on hydrant, one block apart, both
flowing, 8 pounds pressure.

The graduation exercises passed
off creditably at the high school aud
itorium last Friday evening, a class
of fifteen receiving their diplomas
and stepping forth from the school
with the best wishes of instructors,
parents and friends. The full list of
those graduating, together with their
pictures was presented in the last is
sue of The Gazetie-Times.
With the close of school on Friday
last, Prof. Howard James closed two
years with the pupils of this district
as superintendent. They have been
two successful years; harmony has
prevailed between superintendent
and teachers and teachers and pupils,
and the school progressed well. It
is with regret on the part of the pa
trons of District No. 1 that Professor
James will not be with us another
year. Miss Palmateer, teacher of
English will go elsewhere, also, and
she, together with Prof. James and
wife will share the very best wishes
of this community for their success
wherever they may go.
The main feature of the gradua
tion exercises was the splendid ad
dress of Prof. Edwin Reed, of O. A.
C, who took for his theme, "He
roes." He was listened to very at
tentively and his address was great

many of the mains is such that they
are uncertain when high pressure Is
turned on.

The organization consists of fifteen
volunteer members, with Mike Curran
as chief. The equipment consists of

ILUUnL
Jake Young arrived in Heppner on
yesterday forenoon from his home at
Aloah, Oregon, in response to a tel
egram announcing the accident to his
son, Ray, who was seriously injured
in a powder explosion near Lexing
ton Tuesday evening. Robert Young
also came in shortly after the arrival
of his father. These gentlemen were
Fortunate in making close connec
tion by train and auto which ac
counted for their early arrival here
after the accident.
Wm. Gould, who resides in Juni
per canyon, met with a very painful
accident on Monday while attempt-
inp to tie a horse in the stall. The
animal pulled back, catching a finger
in the halter rope in such a manner
that the same was torn off and had
to be entirely amputated. He was
attended by Dr. Chick who states
that he is doing well at the present
time.
August Lovgren ran over a bank
with his car near his ranch out south
from lone on Saturday evening and
escaped with a couple of broken ribs.
He was brought to Heppner late Sat
urday evening by Dr. Chick who at
tended to his injuries says he is now
doing well. He was very fortunate
in escaping worse injury.
Farl E. Gordon has been spend
ir.r several days in the city this week
enming up from Portland on Sunday.
We understand that he is interested
in opening up a drug store on his
own account, and will likely start a
business of this kind in Lexington.
Miss Gladys Turner, 7th grade
teacher in Heppner school for the
past year, departed Tuesday morn
ing for her home at McCoy, Oregon.
Miss Turner will return to Heppner
later to prepare for her work the
coming year in the school here.
RAY YOUNG SERIOUSLY
BURNED IN EXPLOSION
.J?ay,,Yong, who was working for
the contractors, Moore and Anderson
on the Willow creek highway, was
very seriously burned on Tuesday
afternoon by an explosion of a can
of black powder. He was requested
by one of the other men working
near the rock crusher below Lexing
ton, to open and hand him a can of
powder, and taking a pocket knife
he plunged the blade into the top of
a can and the result was the ignition
of the powder which blew up and
Young received bad burns on face,
arms, hands and legs just above the i
knees. ' His clothes were fired by the
burning powder and for just a mo
ment he was stunned by the force of
the explosion. On gaining conscious
ness he had the presence of mind to i
remove his burning clothing or oth
erwise he would have been burned
alive, as there was no one to comej
to his immediate aid, the explosion
taking place some distance away;
from where the other men were at!
work, they did not at once realize I
what had happened. Physicians were
immediately called from Heppnerj
and Drs. Chick and McMurdo re
sponded. Finding the young man in
a very critical condition, he was
brought to Heppner on the local train
and taken to the Heppner Surgical
hospital where he is receiving ev
en' attention possible that will aid
in his recovery.
His case is quite critical as the
burns are spread over a considerable
portion of the body, but his physician
states that he is doing as well as
could be expected at present, and
feels that he will recover promptly
barring complications. That he did
not suffer immediate death from the
explosion is considered a miracle, as
there was powder enough in the can
to blow up a whole regiment had it
been confined.

I VOTE CAST
The primary election passed off
very quietly in Morrow county, the
vote was light and there was no very
exciting contest for any of the offices.
Early in the day it seemed to be un
derstood that the fight for nomina
tion for governor was settling down
between Olcott and Hall, but the re
turns developed the fact that Patter
son had a pretty strong following
here.
Over he state the fight on gover
nor went the same way, and it has
not been officially settled just who
is nominated at this time, though Ol
cott is leading Hall by about 400
votes and Patterson is a poor third.
Olcott's nomination seems assured,
though Hall and his supporters have
not yet conceded the victory to the
governor.
Morrow county cast a good vote
for Hulden, but the fight centered in
Umatilla county between Dodd and
Smith and Hulden received but 225
votes over there and Conder landed
71. Smith was nominated by a ma
jority vote over all. In fact, the yel
low ticket in Umatilla county was
a winner all the way through. In
this county the voting shows that
there was not much heed paid to the
yellow ticket.
The total vote in this county was
as follows:
Republican
Committeeman: Flthian, 181; Will
iams. 312.
