VT a pathetic story of umreaIized dreams
and bHghted hopes that lies behind
recent ne1Os note from Eastern Pennsyt-
vania.
Ten thousand acres of land in Pike county,
belonging to the Shakers-that strange sect OF
eeHbates-of Pittsfeld, Mass, and Mount
Lebanon, Ny, haze just been sold for mere
Song. Thirty years ago the tract soas purchased
as the "Promised Land" of Shaker faith and
hope.
1t is said that the NeaU York and Massa-
chuseHs communities of this sect are planning
to dispose of nearly all their real estate. So
thinned haze their ranks become that there are
not enough members left to manage it.
In all there are nosv but fifteen Shaker set
Elements, in eight States, comprising little
oUer eight hundred members. II half century
ago they numbered five thousand, in eighteen
communities.
Their largest colony, at Mount Lebanon,

populous as Mount Lebanon, has nosO only
forty members.
In every community large dwellings are
unoccupied, mills and factories haze been
closed and farm lands given over TO the care
ct hired men. The fesc remaining members of
the society are grozoing old and feeble;
younger hands do not readily offer to take up
the. burden.
1t is pathetic picture of decay among
these true exponents of the simple life. They
are industrious, frugal and moral, but their
professions and practices do not appeal to the

Special to The Herald.
KANSAS CITY, Nov. 11-Sheltered
from the wind on the south side of
the Bank of Commerce building, be-
tween 1 and 2 o'clock yesterday after
noon, ragged old farmer, with his
family, consisting of his wife and
daughter, sat on the side of an iron
coal chute and calmly ate dinner, TN
mindful of the smiles which greeted
him from all sides. His clothing was
worn and dirty and his face showed a
woeful lack of tonsorial attention. The
woman was dressed in worn clothing
also, while the daughter wore a boys S
overcoat with the balance of her outfit
equally as incongruous. When the din
Iier was finished the pie tins, which
served at plates, were carefully slowed
away in a big basket, and taking mis-
and rusty bucket the party left.
Few who saw this rather comical
scene would have guessed that before
eating his frugal meal the old man had
made deposit of $7050 in the bank at
whose doors he fed. There certainly
was nothing in his appearance to indi-
cate any hidden wealth when he walked
into the bank shortly after noon, ac-
companied by his wife and daughter.
The woman carried the big dinner
basket while the husband clung to the
heavy tin bucket, rusty from exposure
and with one handle fastened on by a
piece of baling wire. Walking up to
one of the receiving tellers' window, he
said in a gruff voice that he wished to
buy a draft for $7050 on a San Fran

ST. VINCENTS AND POMONA
MAY PLAY SECOND GAME
cLAREMoNT ELEVEN WILLING TO
TRY 1T AGAIN
Coach Haggerty Favors Another Grid
iron Battle Between Teams Which
Recently Contested to a Tie and
Plans May Be Developed

A second game between Pomona and
st. Vincents may result in one of the
biggest attractions of the season if both
team managers acquiesce in carrying
out the plan that was discussed favor
ably last evening by Coach Haggerty
of the Saints and the Pomona men.
Haggerty is of the opinion that Po-
mona will defeat Occidental and u. S.
c., and that his men will take the
game from the university team.
The fact that the st. Vincent eleven
played god ball against the northern
universities, defeated the strong high
school eleven and tied with Pomona,
losing only to the Occidentals, is adj
judged as a record that would entitle
them to another game with Pomona,
provided the Claremonters are victori-
GUS over Occidental ana U. S. c., with
St VincentS down the IT. S. G. men.
The Pomona men, who have been
noted for their sportsmanlike attitude
said last night that second game
with st. Vincents would be to their
liking, Coach Noble was not to be
seen last night but the Pomona play
ers seemed confident that a second
game could be arranged.

CANDIDATES!
We Will Issue Votes With 100 Per Gent Increase
Until Saturday, Nov. 18th

Many candidates in The Heraid's
Salesladies Contest have requested
that we continue the 100 per cent In
crease in votes for another week.
On Sunday, Nov. s, we announced
that this extra increase in votes would
be for one week only, but owing to the
inclemency of the weather during the
fore part Of last week we have con-
cluded to continue the double vote for
one more week, thus enabling each
candidate TO take advantage of the new
scale hoping every one VIII profit
thereby Many of the candidates did
remarkably well last week, realizing
that the 100 per cent increase In votes
is to be the best offer of the contest.
We have said SO, and so It will be.
If better offer is made, The Herald
will present every candidate in the
contest with a piano free of charge.
Everyone interested in this contest is
invited to call at the different stores
where the prizes are on exhibition.
The Kingsbury piano, first prize. can
be seen and examined and any ques-
tions pertaining to it will be gladly
answered by the manager of the
Southern California Music Co., No. 322
South Broadway. The second and
third prizes can be examined by all in
terested parties at the store Of Brock
e. Feagans, No. 400 South Broadway.
The fourth prize, a lady's handsome
tailored suit or gown, to be selected
from the immense stock of the New
York Cloak and Suit House, No. 337
South Broadway, and the fifth prize,
ladys handsome tailored suit or
gown, to be selected from the up-to-
date stock of 3. 3. Henshey, No. 521
South Broadway. Interested parties
are always welcomed to above stores,
and any questions pertaining to either
prize, as to style of gown or dress.
etc, will be gladly answered by per-
sons in charge of the respective de-
partments at either store.
Now that the contest is getting down
to good, steady gait, more than or
dinary interest is being felt all over
the city. Contestants are working
with might and main, and the results
of their efforts are many new sub
scriptions for The Herald and thou
sands of votes for the candidates. Last
week was the best of the entire con-
test up to date. More subscriptions
were turned in and more votes issued
than any previous week.
And why not? Just double the
amount of votes usually allowed on
new and old subscriptions were issued.
And now that the same special offer
will be in vogue the coming week, the
banner week of the entire contest for
subscriptions is looked for. 1t is now
that the candidates are carefully
piling up a reserve force which will
count for so much at the close of the
contest, when the decision is made as
to who are actually the most popular
salesladies in Los Angeles.
Following is the scale of votes issued
on all subscriptions, either old or new,
turned in this week, November 6 to
