MEMORY TEST" MAN LEFT town
He Forgot to Come Back and Award
the Prize, and Also to Pay The
News for Advertising Space.

There has been unexpected and
regrettable delay in awarding the
$1,000 prize offered in the Memory
Test" on account of the bad memory
of the man who was conducting the
contest and bought the space in The
News for that purpose. He left the
city and forgot to return and award
the prize or send the money to pay
it. He also forgot to pay us for
advertising space before he left.
While the only connection The
News had with the matter was the
sale of the space, large number en-
tered the contest in good faith, and
we are going to pay the prize at our
own expense.
There are large number of con-
testants, and as soon as their answers
can all be properly examined the
winner will be announced and the
prize paid We hope to do this not
later than next week.
