The bad practice OF betting was INDUCED in
TO a great extent during the last campaign,
and 10 is stated that no less than II 800 900 ito
say nothing OF the large sums involved In
private betsl remains in the New York pools
awaiting the final decision of the Presiden-
tial contest. The question now arises will
bets made on the Presidential result be de-
clared ..off," or will the Stockholders take the
responsibility of deciding for themselves
who has been elected? Should Hayes and
Wheeler be "counted in in Louisiana, South
Carolina, and Florida. those who staked
money on Tilden and Hendricks may con-
tend that the election OF the former is illegal
a view in which probably the majority OF the
supporters of Tilden and Hendricks would
concur. Should Hayes be counted in, and
should the election finally be thrown into the
House. which would OF course select Tilden
rs President, those who staked their money
on Hayes might contend that they had not
lost on the ground that Hayes was actually
elected. and that the popular will had been
defeated by the House In the event of two
inaugurations, the Stockholders would also
find themselves in a dilemma. and could not
decide without giving offence TO one party or
the other. However, ~ is a matter OF small
consequence To the people generally who wins
or who loses, since in the main only profess
sionsl gamblers are interested.

struggled To rise up In bed, which shot
the Guid squarely Into the eye OF the
shrieking Mrs. Jarvis.

'T'm stabbed I I'm stabbed"
h And John Jarvis choked and coughed
and spit and coughed and choked and
clutched Mrs. Jarvis by the throat and
tried to choke on her noise, but he grew
so ''ill" that he couldn't hold his grip,
and Mrs Jarvis, the moment her throat
was released from his trembling pres
sure. rose from the half strangled CUR
giles to the sublimity OF uble-edged
screams, and made Rome howl with
melody. And the neighbors broke into
the house and found bedroom that
looked and smelled like q jury room or

ever fsaw lying with his head over the

ened woman since tho flood sitting up
beside him, screaming faster than he
groaned, while one Of her eyes was

We notice more movement and u
pretty active demand for Metropolitan
Police warrants Of 1874 issues, which
are now quoted at about 81, two per
