Heppner Creek Channel Upgrade Proposed to Prevent Floods

Woman Swindles Pendleton Merchants With Bogus Checks
A clever woman posing as the wife of John Williams swindled four Pendleton merchants last Saturday evening. Between 7:30 and 8:00 she visited the Boston Store, Brock & McComas drug store, Peoples Warehouse, and Lae Teuth Department store, making small purchases totaling about 2.50 dollars. She paid with checks drawn in favor of John Williams or bearer, indorsed by Williams, though such indorsement was unnecessary since bearer would be paid if genuine. The fraud left the merchants out 25 dollars each.
