DANCERS APRIL FOOLED.
Fake Banquet Given by Woodcraft
Girls Caught the GuIIibIe.

The biggest April fool joke of the
day was sprung at the dance given
by the WOodo"aft girls in Eagles hall
and it worked to a charm. says the East
Oregonian. At 10 o'clock it was an
nounced that grand march would
be he'd and at the conclusion a ban
quet would be served in the banquet
room above. Accordingly the grand
march was formed and after some evo-
lutiOns around the room the long line
of dancers was led to the room above.
On entering the banquet room the
marchers found long rows of tables
neatly arranged as though for a
spread of much magnitude. But at
each plate there was nothing but a
cup of water and a solitary toothpick.
Not until most of the crowd had be-
come seated was it made known that
the scheme was a joke. A crate Of
lemons was then opened and handed
out to the guests.

FAMOUS HOTEL
CLOSES TONIGHT
FIFTH AVENUE HOSTELERY, HAIR
BORING MANY NOTABLES IN
ITS TIME, SHUTS DOORS.

NEW YORK, April S.-As the hour
of midnight approaches tonight, a
mournful body of men viii gather in
the bar room of the Fifth Avenue Ho-
tel and hold a wake over the remains
of the famous hostelry that has been
their home. When the clock strikes
Il, the lights will go out the doors
will be locked and the shutters closed
and the last guest will sadly wend his
way to the street In a few days the
work of demolition will commence, and
a modern skysUaper office building
will soon occupy the place where the
hotel now stands. The last week has
been one of deepest sorrow for the re-
gular patrons, and the amen corner"
has become a place of grief and woe.
A list of the great men who have
passed through the portals of the fat
ed hostelry would read very much

In addition to the Prince of Wales.
