VETERANS AT THE SCHOOLS. Detail of G. A. R. Men to Do Duty ToniorroTV. . PORTLAND, Or., May 27. Comrades of the Civil and Spanish Wars: A visit to the public schools just prior to Memorial Day by the surviving veterans of the CIU and Spanish Wars, has become an established observance. Both teachers ana pupils look forward to that time with pleasure, and make ready with patriotic songs, recitations and other exercises to greet the visiting veterans-, and do them honor, and it is a great disappointment to them when the comrades detailed and pub licly announced for such visit fall to at tend. The pupils regard the published detail as a promise that the veterans will at tend their exercises, and iow can the tIs ing generation bo expected to honor Me morial DaV if the veterans do not take enough interest to keep their promise. The committee therefore asks that the several details will report promptly to the respective schools to which they have been assigned. The exercises at the High School will commence at 1 o'clock, at all other schools at 2 o'clock P. M. sharp. The list follows: Alnsworth J. E. Courtney, J. H. Wood- ward, P. Brady, C. E. McDonnell, A.

The naval recruiting office will open for business tomorrow morning, from 9 o'clock until 4 o'clock in the afternoon. Business will be conducted every day thereafter, except -Sunday, until June 5 when the recruiting officers will leave on their tour, as follows: Whatcom, Wash June 6-11; Olympia, Wash., June 13-18v' Salem, June 19-24; and Ashland, June 23-2S "To prevent a rush at the last minute,' I hope all men and boj's who want po sitions in the Navy will come and see us as soon as possible, before June 5." said Mr. Josephsen to an Oregonlan man. "The office will be open from 9 A. M. to 4 P. M. daily. I think, from the number of letters I have received these past few days, that the men and boys In and around Portland are getting Interested in the opportunity to become bluejackets. I have been busy all day answering letters from people who have heard of our visit through reading the notice In last Sun day's Oregonlan. If the boys only take onehour off work, let them call and see us: Lieutenant Morton will be there to give them all Information, and I will do mv best to assist him. I want to see a big crowd of boys leave Portland to gether. At the present time very few boys represent Oregon in the United States Navy, but those Oregon boys I do know in the Navy are called 'good stuff.' But there ought to bo more "of them. Some Oregon boys were wjth Dewey at Manila, and their work while with him speaks for itself. Congress has allowed us to pniist anm young men for the Navy every year for nine years, and I should like to see the great State of Oregon lend at least 3000 recruits. But I'm afraid the Montana boys will be ahead, from all accounts. We enlisted about 110 young fire-eaters in the smoky city of Butte, in four days. They were tne finest body of young fel lows I ever saw, and a friend of mine said with a body of mon like them we could conquer the world. The City of Butte trnv n hollilftv thf dnv thi linvo laft l liave quite afrlendl Interest in Portland. About 10 years ago I was with the United States cruiser Baltimore, when she visited this port, "and we had such a warm wel come that I remember it yet. I never had such a good time. We gave a ball in the city, and such a big crowd of pleasant people attended. Yes, I have liked Port land ever since." Fined For Sending Obscene Letter. Ethel Fears, who is, as his name does not Indicate, a young man, of Milton, Or., and who was Indicted by the late United States grand Jury for sending a very vulgar and obscene letter to a girl of that town, appeared in the United States Court yesterday to answer to the charge. He admitted his guilt, waived arraignment, and, as the United States Attorney requested that he be let off easily, was. sentenced to pay a fine of $10. It appears that outside of the mere sending of the very obscene letter to the young woman his conduct has been above reproach. PORTLAND-CHICAGO.

Pipe to Be Laid Along Soutkern-Pa-ciflo Railroad Will Soon Be Delivered. ,. Ample fire" protection will be afforded property along East Water street between East Market and East Oak streets, in what is known as the warehouse district, on laying the proposed 14-inch water main, and the setting of the new lire hydrants. Contract for the manufacture of the pipe was let to the Oswego Iron Works, and it Is understood that it will soon be ready for delivery. The new main will reolace the six-inch pipe along East First street, and will be laid alongside the Southern Pacific Rail road. It will not be endangered In any way from Are, for there are no elevated roadways on the route. Chief . Campbell is well pleased that the department will have facilities for fighting fires in this important district. Specially devised Are hydrants will be placed at Intervals along this main. Plans for them have been- prepared. They dif fer materially from the ordinary hy drants. There will be three openings, so that three lines of hose can be attached to any one of them at the same time, and there will be a place for attaching the large fire engine. The pressure on this 14-lnch main will be heavy, and three strong streams can be sent frpin each of the hydrants, or they can be .shut off and the big engine attached. The large prop erty interests along Ea Water and East Second streets fully justify the expense of putting In this main. The other large main Is the one that will pass thorough Sunnvslde. It will be 20 Inches In diameter, and will start at the Intersection of Division r-trcct and Marguerite avenue, and go straight north to East Stark street, and thcnCe to East Twenty-eighth, and then to about Oregon street. This main will greatly Increase the pressure for all purpoeos-ln the high service district. The pipe 1b now being manufactured. BETTER CAR SCHEDULE. Double Tracks on Slllwanliie ""Street Ready From Clinton to llolsrttc. The Portland City & Oregon Railway Company has finished laying the second track on Mllwaukle street between Clin ton and Holgate, but the ballasting and the bridge across Brooklyn Crcek-re-malns to be completed. The side walk on the west side Is partly covered with dirt, and is otherwise obstructed south of Brooklyn schoolhouse. much to' the Inconvenience of the public. It Is expected that the work will be completed and the sidewalk cleared In a short time. It is understood .that the company will substitute a 15-mlnute schedule to the golf links In plape of the 20-mlnute one now given, and also that the running time between Portland and Oregon City will bo materially shortened. The com pany undertook to operate a lo-m'.nute schedule to the golf links, but It was found impractical with a single track on Mllwaukle street The City & Suburban Railway Company will lay a double track to East Twenty sixth street on arrival of its shipment of rails from Antwerp, which will be about the first of August; aha .better time Is promlsetLon the Woodstock and Brook lyn branch in the Fall.

Palmer, representing the Force Food' Company and the H. O. Company, of Buffalo. N. T., was in the city yes terday on Lis way to the Puget Sound cities where he will remain for a week or so. When seen by an Oregonlan re porter Mr. Palmer said that within the past month the Force Food Company has shipped 50,003 packages of Its prepared food? to Portland, and the eatables had found a ready sale. The foods were" man ufactured from wheat grown In Oregon, and, he said, there was an Increasing de mand for them. In this connection Mr. Pn'.mer gave an Interesting bit of Informa tion. For 12 years, he said, Spring wheat had commanded a higher price than Win ter wheat, as a whiter grade of flour could be made from It. But during the past year the prepared food companies Have found., that winter wheat Is better sutted for their purpces, and their de mand for It has caused a rise In valuer and Spring wheat now has the second place in the. price list. As an evidence of the demand for Winter wheat, Mr. Palmer said that the 20 prepared food factories of Battle Creek, Mich., established and just starting, call for It. Much, of the wheat used, he said, Is grown In Oregon. In speaking of the rapid Increase of the prepared food factories Mr. Palmer paid that their growth was due to the demand for their product. He remembered the time when the only meal sold In the mar kets was the old Scotch oat meal, which came In SO-pound sacks. This meal s still sold In. some places, but the demand for It Is slight, as the people generally now want prepared foods. One of the best markets In the country is offered by the Pacific Coast, and his company Intends soon to establish a factory at San Fran cisco, where It has an office at present. Some Portland men who met Mr. Palmer told him that the Force Food Company would better consider the advantages- of Portland before deciding to build in San Francisco, and they may take up the matter with the officers of the company. The Portlandcrs told Mr. Palmer that wheat could be brought to this city more cheaply than to San Francisco, and that no Portland was centrally located, the company would find It a better distribut ing point fqr the Coast than the Cali fornia metropolis.

STUDEBAKER Carriages, Wagons,Harness, Whips and Robes Warning ! Piano Owners, Caution! Judging from numerous inquiries and complaints received at our office, a spe cies of confidence man In the guise of piano tuner is headed toward Portland. The party claims to be sent out by a "manufacturers' association," or by "Chlckerlngs," or by "KImballs," or by "Stelnways," to look over their pianos carefully. These factories 'advise us that this man has no connection whatever with them. He is said to be a fair work man, but the game seems to be to get an outlandish price for fictitious work done, by making people believe their pi- i anos have been affected by moths need i icbuiuuut;, reuuswng, voicing, etc, etc., for all of which alleged necessary wcrk he endeavors to get enormous prices. Tho regular price of piano tuning In cludes everything In the way of tone and action regulating, cleaning the action and spacing and leveling keys, etc. And while we have no Interest In this matter, other than to see to it that our customers and t ine puonc in general are not imposed upon, we would advise that before en trusting your piano to gllb-tongued strangers, no matter how plausible their story may seem.
