Picture! Combined In
Evening's Program
That the commercial club banquet
was a auccess, success wnicn sur
passed the best wishes of the commit

ery one of tho persons who were pres

the first course waa brought on the
tallies to the last round In the exhibi
tion boxing matchea, there waa "some
llilng doing" every minute.
IteHMes being the annual banquet of
the club, the gathering waa the offi
cial opening of the new commercial
club rooms. The long tables were ar
ranged In the main club parlor and be
tween 170 and 200 persons attended.
T. W. Sullivan, president of the or
ganization, presided and delivered the
opening address. This waa followed
by llm Commercial mud yiiarceue
which sang parodies of popular songs
with well worded verne In wnicn tne
mimes of prominent members of the
club played a prominent part.
Ho popular was the quartette
with the members of the club that en
oore followed encore ami the singers
completed their list of songs and were
compeled to begin on the list a sec
ond time.
Willie the dinner was being served
a musical program wan given as fol

John llexell. dean of the school of
education of the Oregon Agricultural
college, made a brief talk In which he
aiioke of the work being done by the
college and complimented Oregon City
on the spirit shown by the members of
the commercial club.
When most of the members of the
club had finished their last course and
had leaned back In their chairs waiting
for the next "stunt", Mr. Sullivan arose
and explained that an ortorlcal con
teat would be one of the features of
the evening. George A. Harding,
Charlea Caufleld and T. !.. Charman
were appointed Judges and the chair
man called on a number of the mem
bers for two minute talks. Rev. T. H.
Ford with a brief eulogy on Oregon
City received the vote of each of the

PORTLAND, Ore., April !. Port
land won thn first game hern today to
the tune of four to two. The Oaks
made 11 errors to nine by the Heav
ers. Although Portland came out on
the lop of tho contest, thn Jleavern
made no hits while the loners banged
out three.
Eleven thousand yowling fans, a 30
piece brana band that could hardly
made Itself heard above thn opening
big uproar, the flowera for Judge Mc
Credle, and lastly, the boosters In
large bunches, all were equal sized
features at the opening of the Pacific
Coast league baseball season here this
afternoon, when Arthur Devlin's Oak
land hopefuls met McCredle's cham
plona. The big pennant flag out In
the field flaunted defiance to the visit
ors and there was enough spontane
ous enthusiasm flying through the air
to have won the whole 1914 season for
the Heavers, If their success depended
upon cheers alone. Bvery seat In the
park was taken.
The real opening game of the sea
son of course, was the one inning festi
val of Joy, for the fans, between a nine
composed of creaky Jointed business
men and the champs, and which re
sulted, after one round of strenuous
batting, In a score of 3 to 3.
Irve Hlgglnbotham as predicted,
opened by the liesver with Gus Ftuber
receiving. Everyone on the Heavers'
team came In for a big hand of ap
plause In batting practice, but Judges
of the noise would have said It was
greatest when Huddy Ryan and Hill

take a few pre-game whangs at the
ball.

Is it possible there is a woman in this country who con

table Compound a trial after all the evidence that is con
tinually being published, which proves beyond contradic
tion that this grand old medicine has relieved more suffer
ing among women than any other one medicine in the world ?
We have published in the newspapers of the United States
mere genuine testimonial letters than have ever been pub

CLIPPING RECALLS AN
INCIDENT Or LONG AGO
A clipping from the Oregon Ar-
gus, of Oregon City, which stop-
peil publication many years ago, ?
was recently sent to Mrs. uaniei
O'Neil. The clipping told the
story of a stranger who stole a s
horse from her father. William
4' Holmes, in June 1S57. The clip-
ping, which appeared In the Issue 4
of June 13 Is as follows:
S "K horse belonging to Wm. &
Holmes, near this city, was stolen $
from his pasture last Friday
nigbt. The tblef went to the
$ barn and rigged himself out with
-? saddle and bridle, and left for
? parts unknown, with a very coin-
fortable outfit"
MARKET FOR WHEAT
CONTINUES TO LAG
The market for wheat continues to
lag, although country holders are
showing no inclination to accept lower
bids. The Indications are that the
present inactivity is only temporary
and that as soon as the former pur
chases are out of the way, millers will
again invade the market for the small
remaining stocks.
It is rstlll several months before
new grain can find its way to mill
ers, therefore they must either pur
chase old stock cr else close their
plants until early in the fall months.
Oats and barley trade is quiet, with
practically no change in either the sit
uation or the price.
