Of course, we have no business to make comparisons, for at times they are odious. But we do. however, realize the fact that It la the most difficult three-word rebus eevr published, and any one who Is at all smart can solve it in two hours. If you are too old, your sons or daughters can solve it for you. Anyway, the prize is worth trying for. Then why not try? It costs you no money, and even If you do not succeed in getting the correct rebus answer, you may win one of the other big cash prizes without labor or expense. "Who knows but what the three words this rebus spells is mentioned in this advertisement? Therefore read it through very carefully. CAN YOU SOLVE THIS REBUS? 5t1ss wKTt US' - "K,. jT COME Q A AAA DIPlA A DP Wc wIH Ive $I0000 In cash lo anyone, If they can prove that we have not paid the cash eJ&lljUUl KL, WKU prizes to the parties whose names we advertise, or If they can prove that we ever knew or heard of these parties before they answered pur advertisement. We offer this large cash reward In order to convince the -public that they will always receive honest treatment from us. R. O sOwrt xi'i 125, -? ruring the past two years, it will be remembered, we adver tised what were considered the biggest contests wer published. Tho cash prizes amounted to over 5T5.0CO, and the names of the prizewinners will be sent upon request. Just stop and think for for one moment what grand cash prizes these were three peo ple were made foappy and independent for life by having an an-. nulty awarded to them. Now, If you were so foolish as to ignore all of our previous advertisements, we certainly would advise you not to overlook this one, for without a doubt it is the opportunity of your life, as YOU HAVE A GOOD CHANCE TO WIN $2000 IN CASH. .y we want you to reaa tnis over very careiuiiy, j'Uit rr uia NOT COST YOU ONE CENT. One of these contests is, we be I l. lleve, a very hard one in fact, so hard that it cannot be solved -J Ju-.In a minute or an hour, but is eoinir to tax vour brain and take c--" considerable of your time. However, don't give it up; it can be solved, and Just think of the reward. "WE "WILL. GIVE $2000 IN CASH FOR THE COKREST AN SWER TO THE REBUS WHICH WE PUBLISH IN THIS AD VERTISEMENT, and which represents a well-known saying.

The steamer Chlco sailed from San Francisco for Portland Friday night, and will load back with lumber and general cargo.

The San Francisco Commercial News has the following regarding the new charter party which the San Francisco exporters expect to adopt and have ef fective May 1: "There are but two important alterations, ono being that a charge of 60 cents per Ehort ton will be made for furnishing the ship stiffening, and the other Is that char terers stevedores must be employed and the rate of compensation 6hall be 30c per long ton for wheat, rye or flour, and 30c per short ton for barley. Each of these provisions have met with criticism, but those favoring the new charter point out that wheat for stiffening is often deliv ered to ship at points from 30 to 50 miles away from loading point, and it is but just the ship should pay the expense of delivering the wheat for stiffening at the place required by the vessel, before 6he can be in condition to move to loading port; that the stevedore rates named are present current rates, and that contracts made by stevedores with owners for ship business have never held good when the charterer elected to have his own steve dore, so that no change Is made, but mere ly a right frequently enforced is here clearly indicated. The Port of Roven and Manchester Canal above the bridges are excluded, concessions to the owner not given In the old charter unless under spe cial arrangement." the Oueen Marv crossed the Pacific the Cane of Good Hope, with S50 passen , gers on board, stranaea on. cngnswuo, j.sie oi wigni, ai o u tiut uu uiuimuo.

"In Austria there are evidences," ha said, "of nothing but the kindliest feellngs toward the United States; In fact tho feel ings are of the very warmest nature. When the delegates of Austria and Hun gary, who will decide the question ofv raising the rank of Minister, meet at Bu-V dapest on May 1, I am sure they will pass the bill. The rank, however, will not be raised until January 1, because thel budget for the year already has been fixed." Q,UEEN MARY'S DELAY. Overdue Steamer Ran Short of Fuel and Pat Into Unnlnska.
