affair will be about the warmest thing'
of Its kind that ever caused blast
Broadway to lt up and take notice,
Not only Is there the glory Of Vic
tory for the fair contestants who sim
ulate the daughter of Herodlas, but
there is the added inducement of a
prize of $,-00 in real money, and gold
at that, to stimulate their torpsleho
rean endeavors on that occasion.
There are no handicaps in the Sa
lome competition, and no bars are us
for any of the Salomes, professlon.il
or amateur, who may wish t entr.
All start with a fair field and no fa
vor, and It is a case of the best Sa
