Mr. and Mrs. Wm. Coponhaver,
who were visitors In the city on
Saturday, reported that their son
Lawrence, who resides at Chula
Vista, Calif., was very seriously in
jured recently when struck by an
automobile, the driver of the ma
chine going straight on. A Chula
Vista paper states that Copenhaver
is in the hospital with what the
doctors pronounce one of the worst
forms of leg fracture. The broken
bones were protruding from the
flesh when he was picked up. The
driver speeded on after dragging
Copenhaver 60 feet along the gut
ter. Several others besides the driv
er were in the car, but no one was
close enough on the street to get
the license number. Coupenhaver
is 19 years old, and was employed
in the store of H. C, Masters of
Chula Vista, who has offered a
reward of $100 for the apprehen
sion of the driver or owner of the
car that struck the boy. Chula
Vista is just south of San Diego,
Cal.
Parties in the city from lone Sat
urday express the opinion that the
recent freeze did no damage to
wheat In that part of the county.
Ed Lindgren, who farms the C. T.
Walker land, expressed some fears
that his Federation might be hurt,
and was in lone the lsat of the
week to take out 300 sacks of seed
wheat, to be prepared in case that
the Federation on the place was
killed. Our informant stated, how
ever, that Mr. Lindgren would use
the wheat for spring seeding in
any event
Winter conditions have been Just
right in the vicinity of the Big But
ter creek ranch of John H. Hayes
& Son. There was a solid month
of cold weather before the break
up, but this was not severe and
stock prospered right along, is the
statement given us yesterday by
Joe Hayes, who was in the city on
business affairs. Mr. Hayes further
stated that sheep and all stock were
never in better condition than at
present, and he looks forward to a
prosperous season for 1928.
Albert Smith, who has the con
tract for the surfacing on the Lna
Vlnson gap, and who was compelled
to lay off on the work for the per
iod of bad weather, was in town
Friday. He thinks that the present
open spell will permit his finishing
about 600 feet of surfacing remain
ing on the road. Should weather
conditions permit, he will then re
turn to the work on the Heppner
Spray road,
T. J. Humphreys made a trip out
to the mining district the first of
the week. He is one among many
of the Hcppner folks who have filed
locations in the new Morrow county
Eldorado. Judge Benge and Road
master McCaleb are others. Wheth
er these men have decided to aban
don their present jobs and turn
miners Is not yet made known, but
anything may happen.
W. W. Bechdolt and son Archie,
of Hardman, spent a few hours in
the city on Monday.
David Hynd brought In some of
the men from Rose Lawn ranch In
Sand Hollow on Tuesday evening to
see the war picture, "The Big Par
ade," at the Star theater. Other
help on the ranch came in Monday
evening with Billy Hynd, and this
arrangement made it possible for
everyone out that way to see this
greatest of all war pictures. At
the Hynd ranches every one is busy
with the sheep right now. In Sand
Hollow lambing will begin about
the first of March, and the Cecil
flocks will start much sooner. Mr.
Hynd is authority for the statement
that sheep and stock on the Hynd
ranches is in the pink of condition,
and prospects fine for a splendid
lambing season.
Dan Barlow was looking after
business in the city on Saturday
from his Rhea creek ranch. He is
milking quite a herd of cows these
days and expeets to add more milk
stock later. A fine lot of turkeys
were marketed from the place this
winter, and preparations are being
made to raise a large drove next
season, but Dar. thinks the milk
cows are the best paying proposi
tion and he finds dairying on his al
falfa ranch the ideal industry. .
According to Echo News, flood
conditions on lower Butter creek
were feared the past week, owing
to the heavy snow In the upper
country, and the sudden melting
by the Chinook winds. An ice Jam
in Butter creek above Otis Mccar
ty's place caused water to flood the
McCarty yard and cellar, and blast
ing had to be resorted to in order
to break the jam. The cellar and
yard about the O. F. Thomson house
was also flooded.
Wm. Kummerland was in town
Saturday, having been somewhat
shut in for a few weeks on account
of the cold and the subsequent melt
ing of the snow, which made get
ting out difficult. The mall route
out his way was tied up for a con
siderable time, also, by the wash
out of a bridge that made it Im
possible for the rural delivery man
to come by his place.
W. P. Mahoney, Frank Gilliam,
J. G. Thomson, H. A. Cohn, D. T.
Goodman, Gay M. Anderson and
La Verne Van Marter were among
those who went to The Dalles the
first of the week to attend the trial
of H. A. Duncan. Mr. Duncan's
case was called for Tuesday, and
his attorneys are C. L. Sweek of
this city and S. E. Van Vactor of
The Dalles.
Mr. and Mrs. O. L. Barlow of
Eight Mile have moved to Hermis-
ton and will occupy theR. C. Can
field house on Gladys avenue, after j
some repair work has been finished
on the building. Mr. Barlow is a
relative of Mr. and Mrs. Tilson in
he Columbia district and will be
local agent for a washing machine.

Oscar Keithley, Eight Mile wheat
