(PitUburg Dispatch) One of the biggest bets made in the city occured last week when $5,000 was wag ered against $2,000 that McKinley would be elected President. The money was de posited last week, a Pittsburger taking the McKinley end, and a Butler county man the Bryan end. In the betting last week the Bryan peo ple asked odds of three to one on the general result, and it must be said that they put up the short end of it about as long as the Republican money was put forward. The bets did not range higher than S3OO to S7OO and pools were formed on both sides in these instanees. Later the Rep ublicans were saying the Bryan people wanted odds of four to one. Auong several bets at even money were those on bow West Virginia would go, as to McKinley having 40,000 majority in Illi nois and that McKinley would hare 200.- 000 majority in Pennsylvania. Bryan money was offered that he would carry Kansas. and McKinley money offer ed that the Ohio man would carry Ne braska. No beta were made on either proposition. One Bet of $350 even was made that Bryan would cirry more counties in Penn sylvania than McKinley. For a majority of 150,000 in Pennsylvania the Republi cans had to offer odda of two to one. Several wagers were' made on New York State aud New York City, and there did not seeru to be any trouble in placing money, though in small amounts, when parties came into conflict on the result in these two places. If $35,000 baa been bet on the elec ion hero, that is the outside figure. One of the novel beta last night was be tween John Flannery and Charles Flinn on one sido and John Newell and ex-Poli ce Magistrate Mullen on the other. Newell a-iked for odds If Bryan is elected Flan nery and Flinn arn to hire a carriage drawn by four horses and the four will take part in the subsequent Bryan demon stration. If McKinley be elected, and it is here the odda corne in, Newell and Mullen will hire a two hor.:e carriage and the four will appear iu the McKinley demonstration. There are to be footman, red firo and other accompaniments in this end of the demon stration. A novol election bet was made by two South side men yesterday, John Glaugtilin Republican, bet William MsCully that McKinley would be elected, the bet to be uaid by the losing man shaving off one side of hia mustache and sitting ou exhi bition in a museum for a week.

I NEIGHBORHOOD NOTES. For ysars it has been the custom in ■Wheeling to end Presidental campaigns with a nonpartisan "Mother Hubbard" prade, in honor of some woman of national prominence, the members of the various partisan marching clubs dressing as women and yelling for their chosen heroine. Tuesday night's demonstration was in honor of Mary Ellen Lease. There were 4,- 000 costumes in line. Mr-. Lease was rep resented by a pretty boy, dressed in a par ty gown and white fur opera cloak, lie rode in a fine carriage, and had for a body guard of 30 up-to-date girls m bloomers smoking cigarettes. A Scottish melody touched Andrew Car negie to the tune of $3,000 during the re cent visit of Prince HilkofF to the Home stead steel works. It also lead the iron manufacturer to doff his hat and lead the chorus of "Annie Laurie. ' The Sheridan Saber Band, of Wilkinsburg, received the gift, and in consequence will shortly ap pear in new and glistening uniforms, with brand new silver instruments. The band was at the head of the workmen drawn up to meet the party at the works and en deavored to touch a responsive chord in the breast of Mr, Carnegie. Knowing his fondness lor the Scots, they selected "Annie Laurie' - as the medium. It was the song that reached his heart, and in cidentally his purse. "When the chorous was reached he raised his hat and motion ed for the crowd of visitors and working men to join in, and then lead ofl like an old tried Methodist choir-master. When the band stopped he applauded enthusiae tically and inquired for the leader. Man ager Stately was called and the conversa tion that followed resulted in new suits acd instruments that will cost $3,000. Rev. Henry Emmet, pastor of the Baptist Church, of Springboro, shot himself with suicidal intent Sunday. Mr. Emmet has been lecturing and delivering free silver tddresse3 in addition to his pastoral work and overwork had caused temporary insanity. LEGAL VTJVEK riSEMEMTS '£ cecutor's Notice.
