A 1.1 K4.GS TAKKV AT FIRM PRICK8.
Meng-e Iemaad and North era Orders Keep
the Market Bare,
Speculators who expected to put away
eggs at a low price this year have been
disappointed. There is little chance of the
market going any lower than It is now,
and consequently th storage operators are
making1 up for toat time and putting- away
rcr fast a they can secure them. This
demand, together with th atcady inquiry
from the Northern markers, have- given
lov-al prices a very firm tone.
There waa a good demand yesterday for
hens and small chickens and former prices
were obtained.
An Increase in their cream empply Is ra
torted by .moat of the city creameries, but
there I no surplus yet and tha market is
quoted Arm. Supplies of outside butter are
growing on Tront street, but tha demand
is sufficient to absorb most of the arrlva'.a.
HOPS MOVB FKCTI.Y AT I-OW PRICKS
Surplus a the MjU I-lkely to Be Wiped
Out Soon.
There la a steady movement in the hop
market. The foreign demand continues
good and Kastern order at low prices are
fairly plentiful. At the rate hops have been
changing hands lately the entire supply lrft
in the state will be sold long1 before tha
new crop come en. it wtll be a rood thing
for the growers here to get tho hop oft
their hands and minds, even at the poor
prices that have prevailed. "Whether it will
he such a pood thing next soaaon, when the
market opens with brewers heavily stocked,
remaine to be seen.
Among tha transactions reported yester
day was th sa of the Gallagher lot of
U bales at North Tamhlll to Kd. C.

MARK TWAIN HATES NOISE
Joins Anti-Xoise Society and Con
demns IX?ep Waterway.
NEW YORK. April. 14. That he
joined the ranks of tho anti-noise so
ciety and thnt he did not believe a 14
foot channel down the Mississippi
River could be successfully dredged,
were the things Samuel M. Clemens
(Mark Twain) had to tell reporters on
his return from a long vacation In Ber
muda. He said:
"I have returned from my trip a re
former. I have joined the ranks of tha
antl-nolse society. I have retired from
the making of after-dinner speeches
and the lecture platform. No one can
tolerate noise, you know, unless they
are the noisemakers. I am through,
making a noise and so I insist on quiet."
""Mr. Twain, what do you think of the
scheme to improve our interior water
ways by dredging a 14-foot channel down
the Mississippi River?" was asked.
"I have no sentimental interest in such
a project and I have too many realities
to do with a will-o -tne-wisp. When the
Almighty built the earth, he knew very
well that a 14-foot channel from Chicago
to the Gulf would have been an excellent
and much-needed thing, but he also knew
that it would tax even his resources. If
there were 14 Banks of England behind
the scheme and 14 more behind them
there would not be enough available
money to finance the scheme.
"I know the Mississippi Valley and its
ooxy soil too well. The digging of the
channel would be but the beginning. A
thousand dredges could not keep It
clear."
The Canadian farmer works from 12 to
16 hours a day in the busy season.

EITHER
UP OR

No matter what the market
price of OCEAN SHORE
BONDS may bo, whether they
are selling for $125 or $15, for
every one that yon hold, you
receive 5 per cent on the par
valne, $100, for 30 years. Had
you thonKht of that? The
market price of bonds, unlike
almost any other investment,
has absolutely nothing to do
with the earning power of your
money, while invested in them.
There is only one way that you
can possibly lose money " in a
bond investment and that is if
the assets of the company go all
to smash. Ton understand, of
course, that all the assets of the
OCEAN SHORE RAILWAY
COMPANY were mortgaged,
when this issue of bonds was
made. This mortgage was
placed in the possession of the
Mercantile Trust Company of
San Francisco. TheTe it is held
as security for the payment of
the interest on the bonds. Thus,
for every bond you buy yon are
assured that there is amplo se
curity. There is no way the
assets of this company can
crumble unless the entire
Pacific Coast country goes to
the dogs. The person who in
vests in OCEAN SHORE
BONDS, therefore, is secured
by the permanency of the
Coast country. Summarize, if
you wish, the assets of this
company. It already owns real
estate in San Francisco, its
northern terminal, and Santa
Cruz, its southern terminal,
valued at over $2,000,000. With
the passing of time this real
estate becomes more valuable.
There are franchises in every
city through which the line
runs, immensely valuable in
themselves. There are private
rights of way that have been
secured at great expense. There
is a stretch of rai.'road 34 miles
long already operating and
earning money. There are en
gines, cars, equipment of every
kind. To make assurance
doubly certain, the company is
incorporated for $5,000,000,
fully paid up. and the wealth
iest men of San Francisco and
California are owners of this
stock. They cannot receive a
dollar in dividends until the
bond interest is paid. Further
than that, they are liable to the
full amount of their stock for
the payment of this interest,
in the event the assets are In
sufficient to take care of the'
company's obligations. What
more can any investor want for
security? But, perhaps the
most interesting part of this
investment is the fact that the
man or woman of small means
has the first chance in a life
time to buy railroad bonds be--low
par on easy terms with a
guaranteed income. Pay $96
each for them, buy as many aa
you can afford, pay $10 a month
on each bond, and you have an
income for 30 years as certain
as any investment can be called
certain.
