The kubeIik Concert.

Jan Kubelik, the great violinist, who comes to the Jefferson theatre Monday night February IT, is one of the few mus ical geniuses who is without mannersm, poses or affectations. There is nothing eccentric in his dress, personal appearance or in his department on the platform. His popularity is not due to the length or cut of his hair. or the assumption of any other peculiarity. He shrinks from mo- toriety and desires only such fame as may be his justly from the qualities of his playing. His appeal is through the tones which issue from his violin, and to the sincerity and validity of this appeal
 is due the pre-eminent place he occupies in the musical world when still but 27 wears old

chauncey oIcott In ."o'NeiII of Derry

Chauncey Olcott, who will appear at the Jefferson theatre next Thursday night, will present his newest play, "O'Neill O. Derry" which was especially written for him by Theodore Burt Sayre. The familiar types of characters incident to the usual Irish drama are absent from "O'Neil of Derry" There is no brutal landlord, no narrowing evictions, and the story, which is strong and moving one, might have occurred in any other land or among any other people. MT. Olcott is given his best opportunity successively as g. sol dier of fortune, romantic lover and self sacrificing friend.

 It is regretted that such thing could happen along one of the fashionable thoroughfares of Birmingham. In con- trast with this particular case could be cited the recent auto accident in whiah a man was struck by ear his injuries proving fatal. The chauffeur was q young negro boy. He was driving to the station to meet the owner of the ear when the accident occurred. But instead of driving off at furious rate. he had the injured man lifted into the tonneau of the ear and conveyed him to where he received prompt attention.
 It is to be hoped that this accident the other evening where no such consider alton was shown, will not have many parallels in this community.

NEW LIFE IN
BASEBALL
Series of Games Arranged
for Heppner Team.

The baseball season is here ant
more than usual interest is being
taken in the great national game
A good sized crowd was enter
tanned last Sunday up on tht
school house diamond.
The game was sort of picked
up proposition all round, however
in order to name the mines they
were dubbed the High Schools and
the Scrubs.
The game started off with many
spectacular and thrilling plays, in
which the Scrubs put it all over
the Highs for the first five innings.
With the Scrubs there was High
Pockets Morgan who always re-
sides right up in close communion
with the high fys and he got all OF
them.
The fat man of the bunch was
jeff Neel. jeff played a star game
until he fell down in making the
stoutest run ever made on this or
any other diamond. When jeff
basted the sphere there was en-
ploymeut for several small boys in
hunting the "lost BALL.
1t was just little too windy for
Shadow Highland. He played
good ball between the gusts but
was whipped around just like the
tail end of an onion in q wind
storm.
Then there was Dick Wells and
all the rest of the Scrubs playing
good ball until they got tired.
With the Highs the regular
battery was not there and the only
way the team was recognized was
by that never failing NIT of Jaynes
on first base.
Somebody said that the High
School boys did not try hard. 1t

Manager Hunlock states that a
series OF games has been arranged

SALES DAY
A SUCCESS
PLENTY OF BIDDERS
IN ATTENDANCE.
Good Prices Prevailed at
the First Meeting in
Heppner.

Saturday was market day in
Heppner.
This was the first public sale
pulled off which is the starter OF
the series of these sales which will
be pulled off in the future in this
city.
Quite a number of outside peo-
pie were in to attend the sale and
everything passed off in satisfac-
tory manner. There were plenty
of bidders and the stuff sold was
disposed of in short order.
The prices obtained were salts
factory to the people who had stuff
to sell, and of course there was no
kick from the buyers for they
bought the goods at their own price.
The sales included horses, hogs,
farming implements, saddles, and
other articles.
G.. G. Patterson and D. C. Cur
dane we're the auctioneers.
Interest will undoubtedly grow
in the market day sales. 1t gives
the people chance to get together
and dispose of what they have to
sell at advantage.
Nearly everybody has something
to sell, but few individuals have
enough to attract the attention OF
a crowd at public auction. With
a market day advertised regularly,
all of the stuff can be put together
and there is enough for big sale.
1t is not only a convenience but
a benefit to the community.

NEW ROAD
SURVEYED
WORK STARTED ON
NEEDED IMPROVE
MENT.
Will be Taken up By the
County Court.

County Judge r. w. Ayers, Sur
veyor Heath, and Viewer w. 0
Minor were out in the southern
portion of the county for severa
days last week looking after county
roads.
A shorter route to Parker's Mil.
occupied considerable attention.
The new road which will be
known as the Board creek road
which was surveyed and viewed
will shorten the distance and be g
y better grade than the old road to
Parker's Mill.
The proposed route Is from
Heppner directly south to the
Crockett Kirk place on Rhea creek,
then to Rood canyon past the Mat
teson school house to the head of
Board creek, and down Board creek
to Parker's Mill.
This route will require the max
ing of about four miles of new road.
It will shorten the route making
the distance from Heppner to Par
ker's Mill only % miles. The fact
that the Toll Rock and Parker's
Mill hills will be avoided will make
the grade much easier.
- A petition for another new road
which will be of much Importance
to this county, will be before the
county court at its next session.
Starting at the county line be-
tween this county and Grant, the
petitioners ask for new road run
ming north for six miles to connect
with the Board creek road. The
new road will cut out many bad
hills and swamps and will shorten
the route between Heppner and
Monument about eight miles.
