secured the ringside, reported to have
been built in sections in Chicago, will
be shipped to Newport, so that the

POT" ON END OF WAR

Salt Lake City, Nov. 25.-D. o.
Mackey, prominent sheep raiser OF
the intermountain section, who lives
in Salt Lake, guessed within four
days Of the time the great war would
end, and as a result he has just de
posted pot" of $4,000, made up
by sheepmen Of this section in Feb
ruary, 1915.
Twenty-nine sheepmen who were
gathered here in February, 1915,
made up the pot" one evening,
each contributing 500. The one
who guessed nearest to the date OF
the end of the world war was to re-
ceive the "pot." The $4,000 and the
30 guesses were placed in an en-
velope and placed in safe deposit
box to await the end Of the war. II
was opened several days after the
signing of the armistice terms by
Germany and Mackey was found to
have been the best guesser, Novem-
Der Is, 1918, being his guess.
