Joe Hickey, q sporting gentleman Of
Fulton, No., were talking about the
prospects. Hickey wanted Mclean
to bet Mclean refused, saying he
knew nothing about the contest and
WAS not interested in it. Hickey re-
torted that Mclean was afraid. and
made the assertion that the Cincinnati
Enquirer was easily bluffed. Mclean
replied that he was never afraid TO
bet on an even thing, and that If
Hickey was really bound to bet he
would give him q chance. With that
he pulled out q silver dollar, laid it
on the counter and covered it with
his hand. snow, Joe Hickey" said
he, s'I'll match you for $500. If
you are so anxioas to bet, there is
your chance" Hickey looked a little
funny at this, but replied, "All

pocket and laid it on the counter be-
side the hand of John Mclean. Me-
Lean then asked, 'tIs the money to
be paid in cash or drafts?" Drafts

then continued, still keeping his
hand over his coin, well, are you
matching me Dr. am 1 matching you?'
Il am matching you,'' replied Rick
ey. "All right" said Mclean, and
he removed his hand. The tail Of
Rickey's quarter lay side by side
with the head of McLean's dollar,
and Mclean won his bet. Hickey
took a draft from his pocket, handed
it ever to Mclean and the two went

Mr.. J. F. Llewellyn, of this city,
has been to Jefferson City four times
lately in answer to subpenas in a case
where a party whose property had
been destroyed by a tornado and
was insured against lightning wanted
to O the insurance. Nj. Lew
ellyn's opinion (and he has paid much
and careful attention to this matter)
is, that the destructive power of a
tornado is electricity. Lightning is
one of the effects of electricity.
Hence, the plaintiff should be paid
his insurance. Prof. Tice In his life
time agreed with Mr.. Llewellyn. The

letter to the postmaster at Young's
Creek, asking him what the trouble
was that our patrons there did not get
their LEDGER's promptly. Now, we
are informed, he is going to come up
and ''kick us down stairs" We
think this would be some little trouble
for poor pay. Don't spend your time
