Betting in Pittsburg.
(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.

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.
