EIGHT-The Heppner Gatette-Tinies, Heppner, Oregon, Thursday, February 26, 181 1 Sifting through the TIMES FIFTY YEARS AGO While passing through the Lee Slocum pasture adjoining his place on North Main street, R.W. Turner was attacked by a bull on Tuesday. He was knocked down by the animal and suffered painful bruises. Only the fact that the bull was dehorned saved his life, Mr. Turner believes. He admits the animal had the best of the battle, but the strategy of putting his finger in its eye was successful in discouraging it from further malicious intentions until he had time to escape. J.W. Harrison and Levi Morgan who witnessed the attack form a distance were unable to lend assistance. Jeff Jones reports that the two-story, eight-family apart ment house he is building on the corner of Gale and Baltimore streets is coming along nicely. At present Mr. Jones is doing most of the work himself and gives no assurance as to the time the structure will be completed. He hopes that conditions may ' shortly permit enlarging his crew and pushing the work more rapidly. In attempting to raise the new smokestack at the power house Tuesday morning, the Pacific Power and Light company crew met with grief : when the huge flue slipped clear of its moorings and fell In the ground. Many of the joints were flattened out like pancakes, hut Paul Marble, local manager, reports it will not be a complete loss. Two of the joints were slightly dam aged, and he believes the olhers may be repaired. War on the predatory bird population of Morrow County will be waged again this year with the Heppner Lions club tiiking the lead. It was decided to again organize the club into two competing teams, the losing team to entertain the winners at the close of the contest. Dr. A.D. McMurdo and CM. Lalourell were appointed by C.L. Sweek. president, as the team lead ers. A hounly of five cents for old birds killed is now being offered, according to the statement of B.R. Patterson, chairman of last year's crow magpie campaign, who urged that boys bring in their birds for the bounty money. It is expected that additional prizes will be offered boys or girls bringing in the most birds. It was the sense of many Lions that eagles are as much a predatory bird as any of the country's bird population and should not be protected by law. J.G. Barratt. sheepman, said eagles probably kill more of the countys young livestock than do coyotes. A move is being made to have the protection removed from these pests, he said, and asked for the club's cooperation. TWKNTV-FIVK YEARS AGO Mud and water causing serious road, erosion pro blems.
