lowing his lead, and those opposed to 1t
voting against him.
Reported without recommendation by
the temperance committee. the bill was
placed before the house, Mr. Dawson
amending by moving to strike out all
after the words "A bill" Long debate
followed, which was brought to a close
and the explanation followed that an
affirmative vote would kill the measure
and a negative vote would sustain It,
The bill being lost, Mr.. Ford changed

January Prepared Way.

BY this time nobody doubts that the ex-
remedy sold-out condition of the market
n the January decline prepared the way
or such a movement as began this week.
The interesting question which now
rises is how the market viii endure the
ealization OF profits on the purchases
which have been putting 1t up in the last
ew days. how a realizing market will be
reated and when realization win begin.
For the present those persons whose
purchases have been making the market
eeqned to be satisfied with their pur-
i1ases to the extent Of adding to them
ather than realizing upon them. Under

HERALD'S SELECTIONS MADE
WITH EXACTING CARE

The Henry e. S. G.. Lindeman Baby
Grand piano which The Herald is offer
ing as one of the prizes in its contest,
is one of the handsOmest instruments
manufactured anywhere in the world
today The Lindeman family has been
building nothing but the best pianos
for over SIS years. and the Baby
Grand which The Herald has selected
from the large stock of the Fitzgerald
Music company is one of the most per
feet instruments ever turned out by
the manufacturers.
The Steger & Sons upright the
special prize to go tomorrow night,
has a world wide reputation as the
most satisfactory instrument for all
requirements that is on the market.
In tone, durability and finish it has
no equal, and the piano which The
Herald is offering in this contest is in
every way up to the Steger standard
of excellence.
The stock of the Fitzgerald Music
company comprises practically every
style of case from the plainest to the
most elaborate, and the instruments
range from the moderate in price to the
most expensive, so that The Herald
was not limited in the choice of these
pianos.
In addition to the two instruments
mentioned, The Herald has also pur-
chased from the Fitzgerald Music
company, to be offered as a prize in
the New Subscribers contest, hand

a remarkable example of marvellous re-
producing quality. combined with
beauty in casing and equipment, and
it's winner will be indeed fortunate.

$25, 900 voting contest, before 10 o'clock
night. Each and every special prize
listed above is a rich reward for the
effort which will be required to get
it, and as they are to be given away,
why shouldn't you share in the distri-
button?
The fact that the vote schedule
takes a drop at 10 o'clock tomorrow
night should be also taken into con-
sideratiOn. Why prOcrastinate and
suffer the loss of ten votes on every
dollar? AS long as subscriptions count
most now, why not secure, and turn
them in now? There is nothing to be
gained by hesitatng; there is no rea-
son for holding back and waiting; there
is every reason, on the other hand,
for getting all your friends to sub
scribe now and all friends and ac-
quaintances of yours who may be
among classified ad users should be
seen at once.
The more votes you have when the
list is printed again Tuesday the more
prestige will you have. More and
more interest is being taken in this
contest now and candidates who are
among the leaders are those who are
going to receive the valued support of
thousands of people who have not been
seen so far. The contest department
believes no further warning is needed
here.
All candidates who can possibly visit
the contest department tomorrow
should do so and cast their votes III
person. All votes can be cast in sealed
envelopes. Candidates in outside
cities should mail their envelopes con-
tanning votes and remittances in plen-
ty of time to have the postmark of
their home postoffice show conclusive
ly that envelopes were mailed before
10 p. m. Saturday. All votes cast
before 10 o'clock tomorrow evening
will be counted upon this special prize
offer and as soon as the count can
be made, the winners will be an
nOunced.
The eight prizes given at the top of
this column will be divided among
the two candidates who show the
greatest increases in each district be
tween April "a and May inclusive.
With two winners i'm each district
there will be eight winners in all and
of the eight the one who has the
greatest increase during the time Civ
en- will receive the 5000 Steger piano.
The other prizes will be given to the
other seven with regard to how they
stand in the list. Whatever you do,

the finer the prize you will receive

President n. J. Skinner and other
officials of the All Night and Day bank,
which Monday and Tuesday withstood
an unprecedented run continuing for
almost forty hours, unbroken, were
smiling broadly yesterday for more
than one reason.
Aside from the fact that since the
bank underwent the most remarkable
run in the city's history, and paid its
depositors dollar for dollar without the
least difficulty, Mr.. Skinner was made
excessively jubilant yesterday over the
return of one of the banks largest de-
posits, running high up into the thou
sands of dollars. The withdrawal of
this sum was not exactly blow to the
institution, but it caused the officers to
feel they had lost a good customer.
