For the second time Samuel Richard Gaines,
of Boston, Mass., won, this year, the prize song
competition of the Swift & Co. Male Chorus.
The contest, in its sixth annual renewal, has a
prize of $100, and is aimed to encourage com-
position for male voices in chorus. Mr. Gaines'
prize-winning selection was a musical setting to
the poem "Constancy" written for a chorus of
male voices. Louis Victor Saar, Chicago, was
accorded honorable mention by the judges. His
setting to the poem "The West" was in close
competition with Mr. Gaines' work.
