BEAUTY CONTESTS" IN U.S.

MILLIONAIRE'S LETTERS.

A sensation has been created in poli tical circles in Washington by the dia- covery that Mr. Manuel Herrick, a mil- lionaire and Congressman, elected by the State of Oklahoma to the House of Re- presentatives, has been inviting young ladies to eater into a beauty contest con- ducted by a local newspaper. The winner of the contest is to receive his hand, heart, and fortune. Mr. Herrick frankly admits writing the letters, but declares he did so in order to obtain evidence to sup port his bill now before the House of Representatives to make beauty pontests in newspapers 'illegal. Mr. Herrick, in his letter to the beauties, recommends himself very highly as one who had led blameless life, and who would before eight years ascend to the highest affice in the land, carrying the woman of his choice with him. Would you like to meet a gentleman caller?" he asked, and be asserts that he received only one "no" out of ifty addressed. Mr. Herrick's: letter invited the girls to enter a conter). for the "greatest prize on earth that a woman could ever win." He described himself as the last scion of a noble family who lost political power during the over- running of Europe by Napoleon I. Mr. Herrick claims that when the Judiciáry Committee of the House of Representa- tives sees how, eager 18-year-old girls are for romance, and how easy it is to pick up young ladies through a public contest which is like a candle which singes the

A BOMANTIC HISTORY.

The death, at Speke Hall, near Liver pool, recently, of Miss Adelaide Watt, at the age of 64, recalls the romantic origin of the Watt family. The original Richard Watt, uncle of the father of Miss Adelaide Watt, was described za "a provincial Dick Whittington." A Lan- cashire boy, of humble parentage he was employed by a cowkeeper named Dimoke

West Indies.

All remembrance of him in Liverpool speedily passed away, but about forty years afterwards an eminent merchant at the head of one of the West" Indiaö houses came to the city, where a branch of his business had long been carried on. One of the first things he did was to in- quire after the family of Dimoke, who had been some time dead, and finding two maiden sisters alive he sought them out and settled on cach £100 a year for life. It was the one-time driver of the one- horse chaise, Dick Watt. He was the first of the Watts of Speke Hall, Lancs- shire, and Bishop Burton, Yorkshire, and having no children of his own left a fortune of about half a million sterling to his amphews, of whom the father of Mias Adelaide Watt, Mr. Richard Watt, was one. He purchased Speke Hall, the residence of the Norris family in 1593, at that time surrounded by a most:"

Willesden Council's ban on coloured costumes for mixed bathing has resulted in a very noticeable falling-off in the number of bathers on mixed days. Ladies who have spent quite considerable sums on dainty costumes with a tasteful ar rangement of colouring refuse, at the end of the season, to purchase the black or very dark blue" garb upon which tàn Council insists.

The failure of indignant bathers to ges a deputation to the Councillors, who went on their holidays immediately after pass- ing the new regulation, has led to a decision to contest the next Council election on the question of the colour bar.

The leader of the movement for bright costumes, a young man of ingen- uity and resource, is to be nominated, and will fight on the straight issue, "Black or very dark blue. Artistic taste in bathing dress." It was expected that he would have to wait until the spring, but an announcement has been in the form of a week at a seaside resort made that a Councillor is resigning. owing to his removal from the district, with no trouble except the display of heir manly charma.
