of the achievements of the veteran sea

special train on the Ureat Northern to
bring Its members to the convention.
They will appear In the parade in ap

a member of the 1913 convention com
mission, all Tortland Elks, when they
register at hotels away from home,
write "Portland. B. P. O. K.. 1911. "after
their names. Residents of the city who
are not Klks also have been asked by
the commission to join In this practice
and aid in advertising tbe convention.

has been organised to meet all trains
during the period of the reunion hold
meetings at the Armory, where they
engage In practice drills every Sunday
morning. C. K. McDonnell. ex-Colonel

a distinctive uniform and will be aided
In their receptions by three or four
brass bands. Each Incoming delegation
will be escorted from the depot or
steamer landing to a hotel or registra

W. II. Fitzgerald Loses His Hat.
Mystery surrounds the Identity of
tho person who misappropriated the
elegant hat of W. H. Fitzgerald, mem
ber of the Portland Kxecutlve Board,
chairman of the lighting and police
committees, and candidate for the of
fice of Sheriff, while he was shaJclng
hands with the handsome women and
kissing the babies at the Grange meet
ing held yesterday at Lenta. There
ere several candidates for Sheriff
present, among -whom was A. M. Cox.
but they all denied that they had. taken
Mr. Fitzgerald's headgear or had seen
anybody else In possession of It. It
was an awkward plight for the host,
T. J. Kreuder. master of Lents Orange,
and he assured Mr. Fitzgerald that he
was extremely sorry that his tile was
missing. What made the matter worse
was that Mr. Fitzgerald wears so large
a hat that there was no tile In stock
In 1-ents big enough for him. but after
considerable delay a makeshift head
covering was found for the candidate.

Butter DetUers Warned of Laves.
Closer observance of the state laws
on the sale of butter will be required
by the Dairy and Food Commissioner's
office, as a result of numerous viola
tions detected by Deputy W. B. Dun
can among dealers at Astoria. In near
ly all cases the excuse was given that
tlie California packers were responsible
In not having compiled with the Oregon
laws In printing the weight of each
square of butter on the wrapper. The
Moyer's Boys' Suits are famous for their long-wearing
qualities and their moderate cost. We will be glad to
have you bring your boys in and let us fit them out.

PIANOS
By the Qldest General Music Store in the City Which Has,
Sold Its Warehouse and Must Dispose of Pianos
EVERY
PIANO
MUST
BE SOLD
Reasons Why
Some time ao a good opportunity offered, so we sold our piano warehouse, ground, building and all air 65-67-65
ParkT Nortb and wehav now Wn compelled to give complete possession, hence this general sale of our large
55 of Pianos' and plaver pianos; brand new ones; some used in demonstrating; and o hers of discontinued styles,
aid as we are LtermFned to sell every one of them within the next ten days we are offering them at such low prices
? have neverteen heard of before. Ve doubt if one piano will remain unsold by the end of tins week. .
ThisTthe fit general sale of pianos that we have had in 14 years in the music business, and we are simply
forced into thk Tone gTt one time we were forced to sell off our rent stock, and another time we boughrout a com
forced into Ibis one. V .c t barirain prices that have never been duplicated since by any other dealer,
rJlyhig values .for less money than has heretofore been at
tempted in the history of piano selling. Here are some of the bargains:
