test a uniformly fair one, and no can
didate has yet received enough votes
to give a lead that cannot be over
come.
Another feature about the contest
that makes it extremely popular,
and which is causing interest to
spread over the country at a rate
unsurpassed in history, is that prizes
of equal value will be given in each
district, with the exception of the
capital prize, the Ford automobile,
which goes to the girl with more
votes than any other in the contest.
In each district there will be
awarded an equal number of prizes
to the young ladies. The large num-
Der in the contest assures the can
didates that no one person will be
able to secure such a large number
OF votes that others will not be able
to overcome the lead. The prizes Of
fered are magnificent, and the con-
test is still young. If you are can
didate and there are others who have
more votes in the contest TO date
than you may have, there is no cause
for discouragement.
AS an incentive to the contestants
during the first few weeks of the
contest, the management decided to

TUSSLE ON TOP
OF PIXIES PEAK

dents Of the University of Chicago,
are in jail and Howard II. Robinson,
government caretaker OF the Summit
house, is lowering between life and
death at the st. Francis hospital. In
this city.
The attempted murder was the re-
suit of quarrel over the charge de-
nanded by Robinson for accommoda-
ton in the Summit house, which is
maintained as resting place for those
who make the peak trip. The fight
took place in total darkness in the mid
die of the night, when the three men
were the only ones on the mountain
top.
The two young men say that Robin.
son attacked them because they awak-
ened him, and they attacked him in
self-defense. Robinson Is still uncon-
scious. and his version of the encoun-
ter is not known. The police officials
Of the city are making an investiga-
ton to find the real cause of the trou-
bic, and will not place any charge
against the men in custody until more
is found out.
Shipley and Clark arrived in this
city from the east two days ago. They
were well dressed and seemed to have
plenty Of money and made a number of
friends. Saturday night they decided
to walk up to the summit OF Pixies
peak. favorite trip Of tourists in the
Rocky mountain region.
They reached the summit and we're

and they had something TO eat. After
they had come back to the main room,
which was Illuminated only by the can
die in a neighboring room a quarrel
arose over the price of rooms for the
remainder OF the night.
According to the story OF one OF the
men Robinson ordered them out.
Then the three men, three miles above
civilization, fought in a fierce death
struggle. After several minutes OF des-
perate struggling Robinson dropped
back unconscious.
