SCOTTY HAS A
 GENTEEL RIVAL

NEW YORK. July 25.-Jack West, youthful millionaire. from Ely New, is the newest spender to hit Broad way He has only been in town thir- ty hours, but his lavish tips and his expenditures have already stirred the main street. Judges of such things declare that the Nevada boy will cer- tainly dim whatever luster the over rated "Scotty of Death Valley" re- tained after New Workers taught him how to spend.
 The new man from the Nevada mining camp is now installed, with a private secretary, a friend and a valet, in a six-roOm suite at the Hotel Astor. He arrived on the Twentieth Century Limited from Chicago, In addition to being here to get rid of money, he has a little romance in view. Before he leaves he intends to win and wed Miss Henrietta Pil. | lard of 236 West Forty-eighth street, whom he met in Chicago and fol lowed here.

 After a luncheon in the Pompeiian room champagne corks popped. MT West and his party took an auto mobile ride through Central park. At stopping places the walters bowed over the receipt of tips of surprising l size.
 Young MT. West was engaged busily in writing letters to friends in 1 Nevada when he received a reporter yesterday. He is a well set up youth of some twenty-four years, black haired, dark-eyed, and the possessoI of a huge diamond stud and an equal ly luminous diamond ring.

 ever, is that the young lady whom . propose to marry left Chicago two days ago"
 fl Young MT. West was exercised
 when asked if he knew "Scotty," the
 alleged spender.
 Yes" he said sarcastically, '' know 'Scotty," of Death Valley; ant , I consider him a four-flusher. I have never been in this city before, but
 know that New Workers won't stand :. for a 'piker' who comes here in khak
