QUOTATIONS ARE POSTED Business Men Show Interest in Pro ceeding Transactions in Eggs. Onions and Wheat Reported. Promoters Are Encouraged. Portland had its first experience with a produce xehange yesterday. The Initial ff-S3ion of the reorganized Board of Trade was held in its new quarters in the Com-men-ia! Club building and was a success in everv wav. There was a jrood attend anoe of business men, most of whom Eathrred to see how the plan would work. .MI were pleased with the result of the experiment and predicted a bright future ftr the institution. The committees appointed to fix the local produce quotations met at il:4o A M. and the result of their deliverations was posted on the board by Secretary MuIIer. At noon sham the produce call. which is to be the principal feature of tiu exchange, started. ft was not ex petted that any actual business would be done on the opening day. yet a liberal number of offers to buy and sell were made and several hundred dollars worth of produce changed hands in a few minutes tinv. The first offer to buy that was posted was an offer for any quantity of esrgs up to ) cas-s. on which the first bid was IK cents and the second cms. Ten cases wre offered for sale at the latter rrloe and thLs deal was instantly closed For 2t sa-'ks of onions, 54.25 was offered ard accepted. An offer of !) sarks of fed what was then posted and sold at per ton. Two hundred cases of calTon tomatoes wre o"ered tor sa le at ?? but not sold, aid there was no bid on ten sacks of red clover offered at cents. Four cas of extra California butter were put up at 25 cents but found no takers. An offer t-i buy lotty bushels of Xo. 1 white Walla Walla wheat at S3 cents did not brins: out any selling offers. As a pla-'e where commodities, particu larly produce, nan be bought or sold with out loss of time, the Board of Trade offers decided advantages, its handy loca tion and the ronvenient hour of meeting arpal to business men and there is little doubt that its sessions will be well attended from now on. Business In the buying and telling line can be conducted on the board in a few seconds time, while In the old way of trading it misrht take hours to dispose of the same business.

After the ft rat day the people grew so indignant that they t h reatened to mob the ma rag" me nt. or rather the clerks w ho were left In charge. for the ringleaders disappeared on t?ie day of the drawing and have not been seen eince; and finally the Sheriff appeared on the scene and raided the pla.ee. and that settled the matter.- for bo one after that cared to be mixed np" In It. Today, at Mrs. Russell's. Mm. John Gill carne up to me and said that she believed that congratulation were in order. Of course I looked a-jrprlsed. and asked the reason. She laughed and Mid she under stood I had carried off the $1000 prise of the "Japanese Art Admfrers Society." u another of my friends had told her that she had gone over with me on the day of the drawing to carry home mjr SI 000 prlae. Of course this all made a lot of fun. and that is sJl I have to show for my dollar except my ticket, which I am keeping as a souve nir. However. T do not mind that, a I did not go Into it with tha expectation of making my fortune, as I am not so lucky as that, and I only thought tt wouWS be sort of a joke, and all my friends had tken chances in it. and we have really had our dollar's wor.h of fun out of it already, even if we have no prises to show for it- But I had no Idea that I would write such a long letter as this when I began, as my one thourht was to wish you a pleasant birthday, with many happy returns. I was very much pleased to receive your note, written on your return from Alaska, and w-aa glad to know that your Summer had been so successful.

Loaded C tsars and Peppered Candy Have Their Vaaal Part. y PRIt 1 was a busy day for those of r a frivolous turn of mind. The small boy was 1n his glory, calling the atten tion of every one chancing along to im aginary spiders and such things and the Irresponsible spirit of All Fools' day spread among older persons, causing not a. few weird pranks. , The police station was the storm cen ter of the jests. Half the people in town seemed to be engaged In having their friends call up the police station on "Important business right away." One man wandered In during the fore noon in a state of high excitement and wanted to know why his friend John son was being held. The arrest sheet held no such name, but the visitor seemed to think something was being withheld from him. as he had been posi tively advised by telephone that Johnson was in Jail on a serious charge. Finally Captain Moore suggested that the date might have inspired tne report, and then the light dawned on the victim. Nearly every doctor In town called up the station during the day and in quired what was wanted. Several law yers were fooled in the same manner, having been notified by phone that a victim of the law waj in need of legal advice. "Say. what's this report that is going around town?" was a favored telephone query of several jesters, applied only to politicians and prominent officeholders. "What report's that?" would be the eager, almost excited response in near!? every case. "Why. the report that this Is April 1." And then there would be a torrent of profanity. Loaded cigars, peppered candy and the hundred and one varieties of bait for victims of the day were on sale and were disposed of in considerable quanti ties. Amusements What the Pre Agents Bay.

Dr. Cake was a retired physician and while he had not practiced medicine since he came to Portland, he was well known In Grand Army circles and in church work. Dr. Cake's death was due to a fall which he received last January and from the effects of which he never fully recovered. All the members of his family, with the exceptions of H. M. Cake, and one son. who resides in Philadelphia, were at the bedside. H. M. Cake, who was touring Eastern Oregon, was at Pendleton, but was notified of the death of his father by telegraph and at once started for Portland. Dr. Cake at the time of his death was 82 years old. He was born in Canton, O.. and, during his early days and shortly after he graduated from the Jefferson Medical College in 1S30 he practiced his profession at Fostoria, O.

Later he was advanced to Surgon-in-Chicf of" the Fourth Di vision of the Sixteenth Army Corps of the Army of the Tennessee, with the rank of Major. He was in command of the medical forces of Zl regiments and served throughout the war with honor and dis tinction. IHiring his service he was with Grant at the siege of Vicksburg. the bat tle of Shiloh and several other important engagements. Dr. Cake was also with Sherman when he made his march to the sea.

When the number of Japanese en titled to admission to Canada during any one year, which Is 40i is reached", the Federal authorities have the assurance of the Japanese government that the iraue of passports for Canada will be stopped and that there will consequently be no more arrivals here during the re mainder of the year.

MORE COLONISTS IN SPRING Charlton Expects 'Good Increase in Present JLight Travel. That colojiist travel on all transconti nental lines is far below what it was In former years is the statement of A. D. Charlton, assistant general passenger agent for the Northern Pacific. He has secured figures from the head offices of his company at St. Paul and finds that lrss than 50 per cent of last year's colo nist business Is being handled. Other lines east of St. Paul and of Chicago re port the same status of affairs, says Mr. Charlton. "The reason for this falling off in colonist travel," said Mr. Charlton, "is that with the hard times in the East, people are timid about changing their locations. They fear that on aocount of the stringency in the East, they will find financial conditions unsettled out here as well and they think they had beeter stay where they are than make a change. The unsettled status of things makes them fearful about securing employment in a new and unknown country and they pre fer to stay where they are for the time being. I look, however, for a very heavy movement of colonists to this territory during the closing days of the season. I believe travel will be heavy under these rates as Spring advances and confidence is restored, to a greater extent. WABASH MAY OPEN AX OFFICE General Pacific Coast Agent Here Looking Over the Situation. L. R. Robinson general Pacific Coast agent of the Wabash Railroad, with headquarters in San Francisco, has been in Portland for several days visiting rail road men. It is surmised Mr. Robfnson had the object of looking over this field with view of establishing an agency for his line In Portland, but he refused to discuss the subject, saying he had made the trip to this territory partly for recre ation and to look after the interests of his company in this section. He also spent several days in Seattle and Astoria. Mr. Robinson haa not been in Portland for ten years and is amazed at the growth and development of the city and its commerce.

Out With the Adenoids "At least two-thirds of all cases of earache and, indeed, five-sixths of all cases of deaf ness in children are due to adenoids. They also cause arrested development and ap parent stupidity." So says Dr. Woods Hutchinson, in this week's issue of THE SATUR DAY Evening Post. Back in your throat, and so high up that you can't see it, there is a place that says, "Welcome, adenoids." But if your children are keeping these undesirable guests you should get them out of the way, without a return ticket. A prominent educator says: "When I hear a teacher say that a child is stupid, my first instinctive conclusion is either that the child has adenoids or that the teacher is incom petent." By a very simple operation these adenoids are removed, and many suffering, "dull" children are restored to health and mental vigor. . The article is called " Mouth Breathing," and every parent ought to read it. At the Newsstands. 5 cents. $1.50 the year by mail.
