JEWISH FEAST HERE Passover Begins Tomorrow and Lasts Seven Days. MANY EVENTS SYMBOLIZED Ritual Is Commemorative of Birth of Nation and Bitter Slavery En dured by Forefathers In Egypt Before Deliverance. SCHOOLS PLAN EXHIBIT A trail of organized theft leading into several of the largest retail estab lishments of the city and involving both persons employed in them and people who worked with them on the outside was opened up by the invest! rations of Deputy District Attorney Robison yesterday, following the ar rests of the preceding night of women alleged to have stolen goods from Lip man, Wolfe & Co.'s department store. All day women were brought into the District Attorney's office and in nearly every case they made lengthy answers when questioned by Mr. Robison, which brougnt to light more and more clearly the extensive scope of the operations of the thieves. The goods which were recovered yes terday and were identified by represen tatives from different firms came from Lipman, Wolfe & Company, The Meier & Frank Company, Olds, Wortman & King, F. Friedlander's jewelry store and Fleischner. Mayer & Co. It is thought that further evidence will show other stores to have been included the operations. Ilecoverteit Worth $5000. The goods yesterday recovered repre sent a value of between $5000 and $6000, mostly in the form of suits, cloaks, fine laces and silverware. In one stack 4n the District Attorney's office were piled $1573 worth of goods from Lipman, Wolfe & Company's store, which had been taken from the apart ments of one of the women arrested. The total amount of goods taken from the different stores cannot yet be esti mated, as the investigations ef the District Attorney's office are continu ally unearthing clews to new "fences" where the goods have been stored. Arrests up to last night included, be sides the women taken on the previous night, IIrs. Klla Crear, a clerk of Friedlander's, and her daughter, Sylvia. Mrs. Fannie Larson, of the Meier Ac Frank Company store, was brought in as a witness and a Mrs. Quinn, from Olds, Wortman & King's store, was held as a material witness in the case. Statements were taken from about 15 women who were able to give impor tant evidence and. Deputy District At torney Robison says that he expects more arrests to be ma3e today. Co-operation Is Indicated. , Statements made by some of the women brought in yesterday indicated co-operation between women in differ ent stores in the exchange of goods and in the disposal of goods smuggled! from the store by outside workers. Among 1 the goods recovered was a. quantity of1. hand-pain ted china from ono store, which, it was saUl by one of the women examined, was exchanged at another store, through the connivance of em ployes, for laces and clothing. The goods recovered from the jewelry store were for the most part solid, sil verware, including spoons, knives and forks and other small articles. It is thought that a large amount of valu ble stones were taken. Mr. Frieilander said to Mr. Robison yesterday that he has been obliged, to charge 01T between $20,000 and $30,000 worth of diamonds and. other gems that have disappeared from the store. The loss of the sil ver he regarded as a trifle compared to the gem thefts. The inventory, of the goods recov ered was not completed yesterday and It is probable that with further arrests today a new supply of goods will be discovered.

Message Carries Hose. Two other symbols of the table dec orations should be noted: namely, the four cups of wine allowed to each one are symbolical of the fourfold phrase in which God couched the first "Dec laration of Independence." and the cup of wine meant for the prophet Elijah who, always present In spirit, brought ever anew the message of undying hope of the Messianic reign of uni versal Justice, freedom and peace. The Feast of the Passover has not lost Its thrilling significance to the modern Jew. To those still pining in slavery in Russia and Routnunla, It Rings the song of ultimate redemption, while to those living under the blessed flag of freedom it teaches the undying lesson of gratitude, together with an appreciation of the higher civic duties and responsibilities of civic and re liglous liberty. The Feast of Passover begins Friday evening, April 10. 1914, and lasts one week. GREATLY BENEFITED BY CHAM BERLAIN'S COUGH REMEDY Professor Ewer to Iecture.

Pesach, the an nual Feast of Passover, or of Unleav ened Bread, will- be celebrated In Jew ish homes and synagogues. This, the olddest feast of the Jewish Calendar, carries us back well nigh 3300 years. The awakening of Spring has its normal appeal and its practical symbolism to every primitive people. The agricul tural aspect of this holiday is seen in the phrase: "That it is to be kept in the season of the month of ripenings. when the barley sown in Winter has become ripe and when an offering con sistlng of an omer one-half gallon of barley was brought in gratitude to the giver of all good. Agricultural Feature Leas. The historical significance of the festival has over-shadowed its agri cultural aspect. As the Feast of Free dom It commemorates the emancipation of Israel from Egyptian bondage and the people's entrance Into the dignity and destiny of national life. It thus marks the birth of the Hebrew people. The main characteristic of its cele bration has always been domestic: in the homes the families and the invited fi lends gather on the first evening to recount in song and story and amid ap propriate symbolism the deliverance of Isreal. The main symbols of this Seder Serv ice are the roasted lamb bone remind ing them of the lamb that was slaugh tered as a sacrific of the Covenant: sec ond, the Matzah or Unleavened Bread to be eaten during the whole week, recalling not only the hasty prepara tion with which the Israelites hurried out of Egypt, but also their absolute reliance upon God and readlne&s to trust in his leadership of them; and the Bitter Herbs, suggesting vividly the bitter life of their forefathers in Egypt GDUNTYWORKPROPDSED s V.

OREGON POLITICAL GOSSIP,, Only 14 County Candidates Have Filed Completed Nominating Petitions as Yet Tomorrow Last Day for Filing by Aspirants for State Offices Seventeen Out for Precinct Committeemen News of the Candidates. held in the office of State Secretary Rhodes In the Portland Association building Saturday. The county work, which is an important feature of Y. M. C. A activities in many states, has not yet been introduced Into any part of Oregon. Mr. Rhodes recently returned from trip through California, where the county work Is progressing rapidly. He says this work consists of the organi zation of the Y. M. .G A. in rural com munities, each association drawing Its 1 Library Books and taking part in the physical, social and religious activities of the com munity. "County work for the Northwest was considered informally at the recent Y. M. C. A- convention in Vancouver, Wash.," said Mr. Rhodes yesterday. 'Our state committee will go more thoroughly Into the plan and decide If It is practical to Introduce the move ment at this time. It would require the employment by the state commit tee of a man to devote most of his time to this phase of the work, and it may be that the expense will prevent def inite action now. "Within the last year five buildings, ranging in cost from T5.U00 to 2UO,0oo. have been completed in California. At the California state convention, which I attended, there were 17 secretaries formerly connected with associations In the Northwest. Among those recently from Portland were R. R. Perkins, re ligious work director in San Francisco, and E. W. Brown, who has entered the county work." S. Kirkpatrick, at Main 6636.

Cot Proceedings for street and sidewalk Improvements to cost many thousands of dollars were starteo yesterday by the City Commission. Republicans THOUGH. 36 persons, exclusive of aspirants for precinct committee men, have so far filed declara tions of candidacy for county offices, only 14 of them have turned in their completed nominating petitions. Un der the law they have until April 15, next Wednesday, to file these petitions with the county clerk. Those whose petitions are completed to date are John B. Schaefer. Republi can, for County Commissioner; Rufus Holman, Republican, for County Com missioner; H. L. Wallace, Democrat for Sheriff; John M. Lewis, Republican, for County Treasurer; Tom M. Word, Dem ocrat, for Sheriff; W. S. Conser, Re publican, for County Commissioner; C W. Hohlt, Republican, for County Com missioner: Mtss Lida M.

Hughes, Democrat, for Coroner; O. M. Orton, Republican, for County Commissioner; Benjamin Brick, Democrat, for County Commis sioner; Dr. H. M. Patton, Republican, for Coroner. Three candidates for precinct com mitteeman have filed their completed petitions. They are John W. Cochran, Precinct 43 and W. R. Lake, Precinct 124, both Republican, and A. W. Caw thorn, Precinct 207, Democrat. IX S. Johnson, Republican candidate for Justice of the Peace, Multnomah district, has filed also. Just two more days today and Fri day remain in which candidates for state offices may file their completed nominating petitions with the Secre tary of State at Salem. If a candidate does not get his completed petition in the Secretary's office by April 10, his name will not go on the ballot at the primary election. A very small proportion of the can didates who had filed declarations of candidacy have turned' in their nomi nating petitions. As there are many little technicalities to be observed in making out the petitions, any one of which, if overlooked, may be sufficient to invalidate the petition, there are likely to be some disappointed candi dates on April 11. For instance, the person circulating the petition must be a registered voter himself, and a signer of the candidate's petition other than in his capacity as its circulator. Failure to comply with this requirement has caused some of the completed petitions already in to be sent back for correction. Then the circulator must also sign each sheet of the petition in two places, and each sheet must be attested by a notary, who must himself be a signer of the can didate's petition other than in his ca pacity as notary. Before the petitions are filed, the circulator should make certain that none of the signers has ditto marks preceding lines to indicate his postof fice address and precinct. Where this has been done, the address and precinct number must be written in, or the name of the signer will be thrown out. Candidates whose petitions must be filed tomorrow include aspirants for National committeeman. United States Senator, Representatives in Congress.
