SOUTH HIGH.
Tillie Will, Reporter.

In the baseball game between Central and South
High, played at Minnehaha Park, May IL, the fates were
again opposed to the orange and black. The South High
team, under Captain Berg, played a good game, but the
Central boys played a better and the score stood 5 to 2 in
their favor.
The annual oratorical and declamatory contest held
in the South High hall Friday evening, May II, under the
auspices of the South High Literary society, was a great
success. The program was opened with a violin solo by
Jean Hartzell. Declarations by Ruth Harrison, Marjorie
Smith, Virginia Hansen and Florence Engstrom were well
given and equally as well received; orations were given
by Title Will, Ed McKeen, Otto Sanaker and Gerald
Young; vocal solos by Rosetta Monahan and Bessie Hall
added zest to the program.
Professor Maria Sanford, on behalf of the judges,
presented the prizes, two for orations and two for dec
lamations. Gerald Young, "The Power That Rules - took
second. In defamation, Ruth Harrison, "The Grena-
dier,' and Virginia Hansen, 'FMy Wedding Day. car
ried off the honors. Misses Engstrom and Hansen were
substitutes for Bertha Sanford and Marion Wolk, who
were prevented by illness from taking part. -

The thirst for knowledge occasionally leads wide

looking before a leap, is told Of a Harvard instructor, lee

A hundred pounds of ambergris has been seized at
Seattle as stolen property. The appraised value is $50
an ounce, or $4,000 for the hundred pounds. A hundred
pounds Of pure gold would not be worth as much by
10000. And were a hundred pounds of gold to be stolen
at Seattle a great stir would be made about it. Amber
girls is scarcer than gold. It is more of an uncertain
quantity. It is harder to find and harder to transport.
It is found floating in Jumps in the ocean, and occasion
ally in the in~testines of the spermaceti whale. There
are, however, few sperm whales available, and the Jumps
Of ambergris have been growing scarcer as the whales
have decreased in number.
The price has advanced, but ambergris always sold
fell. A piece weighing $50 pounds found inside a whale
killed near the Windward Islands forty years ago sold
for $4,000 o nthe spot, and for much more when it reached
market. The Dutch East India company paid the king of
pounds. Forty and fifty years ago, when ambergris was
