The suggestion for a new contest,
submitted by Mr.. Lawrence Wild.

my opinion, the very best idea Of
fered last week in the response to
the invitation extended readers of
"The Herald's Page for Every Wo-
man" to select their own contest
subject for this week.
It complies with every request
that has come to me, both from the
puzzle circle and from those who
prefer other sorts of contests, for it
combines both.
The new contest is very simple.
Its object is to see who can make
the greater number of short words
of the sentence, "The Herald's Page

Example-Man, 60, age, name,

old Southern mammies used to wear
their bandanas.

sufficiently to allow OF the gown being

Baseball in McGill is an establish

held at the depot on Thursday night.
The greatest enthusiasm prevailed,
permanent organization was effected
and the nucleus of four clubs for the
association started, with c.. J. Barnes
a former Western Lacquer, as gen.
eral manager for the association.
The meeting was called to order
by President James ID. Watson, who
made a brief address on the subject
of the gathering. The popularity of
the movement, he said, he had no
occasion to dwell upon for the at
tendence spoke more eloquently on
that subject than he could voice it.

were then in order, and the elections
were carried by acclamations r. L.

the title with which it goes before
the people of the country and upon
that alone depends largely for sub
scribers to its creed and adherents
to its cause. 1t is the latest babe in

Lincoln-Roosevelt followers have de-
elared themselves as within the fold
of the newcomer. A timely article
anent the new organization appeared

date which is well worth reading.

SHIPMENT OF GOLD BARS.
St26, 900 In Bullion Goes to San
Francisco From Nevada.

On W~ashington's birthday gold
bars valued at $426,000 took a
leasurely trip through the streets of
San Francisco when the largest ship
ment of bullion ever sent out of
Goldfield Mines company for the Sell
by Smelling works. The big store of
wealth, having total weight of L.
$50 pounds, travelled in the usual
heavy Well-Fargo barred wagon
when il reached the time for its pro-
gress through the streets, but it was
protected by two extra guards in the
wagon with sawed-off s~hotguns and
automatic pistols. An extra express
messenger rode with the driver of
the wagon and a detective sauntered
along on the sidewalk oppisite the
consignement of gold keeping pace
with the slow moving horses.
Ii seemed that San Francisco is
blaze about arrivals of gold, as the
Wells-Fargo had made the transport
ing of half a million dollars or more
of bullion such an old story that It
is now merely an accident in the reg
ular routine. No crowd gathered to
cheer the travelling gold, in fact. the
express company failed to
its arrival.
There were nineteen bars included
in the shipment. Their total value
is s426.0 600 and their weight 1,24S
pounds. The consignment started
from Goldield on the fourth ami
versary of the richest car of gold ore
ever produced. The record-breaking
shipment was forty-eight tons from
the Hayes-Monnette lease on the
Mohawk, for which the Selby com
pany drew a check for $574,95S.39.
Nevada does some grand things in
