CORDRAVS THEATER Tonight at 8:15. Dan
and. Chas. Mason in "Rudolph and Adolph."
TE BAKER THEATER Thia evening at
adera"ell! Bt0Ck cnip&n; in "The Masquer-
Hokest Butter and Milk. Two per
sons deeply interested In the dairying and
pure-food business were discussing the
weight of rolls of butter yesterday on
Third street. One, who is a lawyer, de
cided that the Legislature might require
that all rolls of butter shall weigh 32
ounces, but that it could not oblige any
one to put up all his butter in 32-ounce
rolls. He might make it into cubes or
balls, and make the weight short as
usual. Speaking of tuberculosis, one of
the party told of a case where two fami
ly in this city were raising children on
tTW-mllk of cows they. kept, and at last it
was found out that these cows were near
ly dead with tuberculosis, and they were
killed. The children were all healthy and
have never shown any signs of tubercu
losis. In regard to diluted milk being dis
tributed in this city, it was said that the
milk from a dairy of pure-blood Jerseya
was found to be diluted, but it was not
the fault of the cows. It is supposed that
tho drivers of the wagons distributing this
milk put two quarts of water Into a can
to turn a dishonest penny for themselves.
Will Raise More Corn. R. Collins, for
merly a Portland policeman, but who has
been farming near Hlllsboro for a num
ber of years, says he has raised an acre
of corn every year, but next season he' in
tends to put in 10 acres and use the corn
for feeding to his chickens and pigs. He
says he gets 25 to 30 bushels of corn from
an acre, which is not so much as corn
yields East, but is a fair yield. There
has been so much stormy weather this
Fall that few have succeeded in getting
much wheat sown, and this will have a
tendency to turn the Valley farmers more
than ever to raising other things than
wheat. The quantity of ground sown to
wheat in the Willamette "Valley has been
decreasing gradually for a number of
years, to the benefit of the farmers.
Pbohibition Speaker Comes. Alonzo
E. Wilson, secretary of the Illinois State
Prohibition Committee, will arrive in

was a candidate for Vice-President on the
Prohibition ticket of 1S96. The public, es
pecially those Interested In cli'lc righteous
ness, are cordially invited to hear Mr.
Wilson, who Is a speaker of considerable
note.

Work op the Snaqboat. The United
States snagboat Mathloma, which came
down from the Upper Willamette a few
days ago, is at the Government moorings
in North Portland undergoing an over
hauling and repairs tq her hull and snag
ging apparatus, which It is expected will
be completed about the middle of the
week. She will then do some snagging
between the city and St. Johns, and also
on Postofflce bar, where some undesirable
old trees or stumps have been discovered.
When this work shall be completed the
Mathloma will be taken up to the vicinity
of Corvallis and will be kept at work there
during the high-water stage.
Where Was Johnston? The case
against Mattle Clayton, accused of steal
ing $20 from John Johnston in a Fourth
street saloon, was called in the Municipal
Court yesterday, but Johnston did not ap
pear as complainant, as he had promised.
"I am getting tired of this practice of
persons getting other people arrested and
then falling to appear In court to prose
cute them,'1 remarked Municipal Judge
Hogue. "Hero is a case in point I have
no doubt that certain complaining wit
nesses are seen outside this court and
persuaded not to appear. A bench war
rant will be issued compelling Johnston's
appearance before thl6 court."
Drinks to Soften the Blow. Yester
day a man was telling about losing 2000
head of sheep by driving them into a ter
rific storm somewhere in the highlands in
Southern Oregon. A friend remarked,
"That is rough on you." "No," he said;
"Jt Is rough on my partner. He doesn't
drink, and he will worry over his loss for
a long time. I will go on a sprue and for
get all about the matter, and when I come
round again I will Just make a new start
entirely." This may do very well for
those who like to be making new starts
frequently, but some do not.

Mud on Hood Street. Complaint is
made m regard to the condition .of Hood
.street from Hall to Caruthers. The street
was planked 'about four years ago, but as
all the traffic coming into the city over
the White House road passes- along Hood
street, the planking was long ago worn
out In places, and It is now In such bad
condition that many teams avoid it by
pulling up a bad hill to Front street,
and this traffic comes into town over the
Front-street bridge across Marquam's
Gulch, which has Just been repaired, but
will soon be worse than ever if this
heavy traffic passes over it Some $120
has been subscribed by the proprietors of
sawmills, soap works, a box factprj'. an
abattoir, etc., for the repair of Hood
street, but work has not been started on
the patching yet The usual order of
things would be violated If this repairing'
had been done In fine weather.
What the Wild Waves Did. George
Taylor and wife, who went down to Clat
sop Beach for Thanksgiving, spent a part
of Sunday on the beach. He says the surf
was tremendous, and he saw how the
driftwood along the beach Is piled up.
Great trees were tossed about like play
things, and the aspect of the ocean was
something wonderful. . The Necanlcum
was also in a roaring, raging flood, and
huge sawlogs were coming down by hun
dreds at racing speed and being thrown
around in all directions. Mr. Taylor says
that It is well worth a trip to Clatsop to
see the ocean in such a turmoil as It was
on Sunday.
Annual Dividends. The Equitable Life
pays annual dividends on all policies
where the insurant desires that his pol
icy be written on that plan. In Massa

ceives preference in Massachusetts and all
other financial centers.

NEED TEETH.
Serious Failure of Body Comes From
Lack of a Good Grinding MlllJ
"A few years ago mother had her teeth
all taken out hoping in that way to re
lieve her suffering, but failed, and It left
her gums so sensitive that the wearing of
false teeth or the proper mastication of
food were equally. impossible, so thit In
the Spring of 1901 she failed rapidly, mind
and body both giving way, and for many
weeks life' and reason were despaired of.
"At one call of her physician he said
she absolutely must take more nourish
ment something easily digested. 'Try
Grape-Nuts.' I immediately obtained a
package, prepared some with good, rich
cream, and fed her from a teaspoon. She
began to take it regularly, and liked the
food so well she would ask between times
if we had any ready for her. She began
to improve at once
"It Is now three months since she began
eating the food. She has fully recovered
her health, looks better and Is fleshier
and stronger mentally and physically
than dor many monthsf previous.
"Grape-Nuts furnished the nourishment
for. her that It seemed Impossible. to get
from any other, Jcind of food." Name

"Fiddle-Dee-Dee" is undoubtedly the
most appropriate title that could have
been devised for the show that opened at
the Marquam last evening.- It Is fiddle
dee from beginning to end, and when
It Is over, about all one bears away of It
is the mental picture of a distracting med
ley of dancing legs, the echo of music and
song, and that pontented frame of mind
following a very long and hearty laugh.
It Is a burlesque, pure and simple; or
rather, spicy and nonsensical as a bur
lesque Is supposed to- be. it certainly
pleased the audience as a whole,- for there
was abundant applause and plenty of re
calls. The theater was filled, and as in
Judging the show people remember what
It cost them prid the prices being half the
Marquam's standard the , patrons no
doubt felt they had their money's worth.
If "Fiddle-Dee-Dee" had a' ru,n of 107 nights
in Sin Francisco It should manage a week
very well here. There is nothing objec
tionable about the Jokes, or the suggest
lveness In the scenes. It Is an exception
ally rieat and artistic presentation, marred
In only one trifling feature last evening
by the apparently inadequate training of
the string of girls in the "Rosey Posey"
song. v
The German dialect funny men, Sam
Sldman and Bob Harris, are very funny
Indeed, especially In connection with Har
ry Walters as Shadrach Leschlnsky. This
trio manages very cleverly to produce
that tickling sensation so highly desir
able at a production of this sort
The hit of the ev.eni.ng was unquestion
ably the burlesque on the "Florodora"
sextet. This Is very good, and received
recall after recall.
The cornet solo by Irene Franklin
earned that young lady several recalls,
also. The burlesque opera duet by Harry
Cashman and Jessie Moore delighted the
audience, as did the various songs by Miss
Moore and Madame Cara Roma, respect
ively. They are the prima donnas of the
company. There Is one performance of
the chorus that several male patrpns were
overheard to describe as a "corker" tho
one where the girls appear In very Inter
esting silk "bathing suits.
Mr. Joseph Muller, the new business
manager of "Fiddle-Dee-Dee." was much
pleased with the showing made by his
company at the opening of the first en
gagement under his "management Mr.
Muller is already known here, having
visited Portland last Summer as business
manager of the Tlvoli Company. He
held formerly the same position with the
Pollard Juvenile Opera Compariy.
POSTAL RECEIPTS GROW.
The postal receipts at the Portend
office for the month past amounted to
$23,117 02. an increase of $2923 7S over
the receipts of November, 1001, which
were 920,103 24. This lias been a very
prosperous year at the 'office, and the
receipts all Ehow a very substantial in
crease over those of 1001,
GOES OUT OE BUSINESS.
Portland Produce Exchange Not' ft
SuccesH.
Commission men generally, along Front
strent were very Jovial and smiling yes
terday, tfhe cause of the unusual hilarity
in the commission district, strange as it
may seem, was the prospect of a new com
mission firm on the street, as the result of
the "Portland Produce Exchange" retiring
from business. This concern was Incorpo
rated by members of the Retail Grocers'
Association last March. It was gotten up
for the especial benefit and protection of
the retail grocers, who are large patrons
of the commission business, but Who had
been dissatisfied with a rule maOe by the
commission men requiring bills to be paid
every Monday The stock of the Produce
Exchange was subscribed principally by
the retail grocers, and It was Intended to
be conducted on philanthropic principles,
for their especial benefit As understood,
they were to have produce at first cost,
no commissions being added, and bills
were not to be paid weekly, but when con
venient It was thought by some at the
time that such a business could not be con
ducted on such a basis, and It looks as If
this Idea was correct, for the exchange is
at an end, and the treasurer, H. C.
Thompson, has associated himself in busl-'
ness with G. L. Davenport, of the E. J.
Partridge Company, commission mer
chants, and they are to conduct an old
fashioned commission business In the store
which the exchange has occupied since
its inception. As far as Is known, 'no pro
fits have been distributed among the stock
holders In the Produce Exchange, and It
Is not definitely understood whether they
will receive back any money they may
have paid for stock; but it is supposed
thit all outstanding claims against tho
exchange will be paid.
