A FAMOUS ELECTION BET.
Ht Appeared Quite Small Mt First, bu
Developed Very Rapidly.

Il Appeared Quite Small at First, but
Developed Very Rapidly.
Probably tho most noted election bet
was that made BY Ruel Gridley OF Aus
tin. New, in 1862. He bet that he would
heat his opponent. Tie terms Of the
wager demanded that the loser should
carry n sack of -four from Lower to
Upper Austin. Gridley lost. and the day
after election started on his trip. accom-
panied by the entire population Of Austin.
The question arose as to what disposi-
tion should lie nude of the flour and
sor.e ingenious individual suggested that
It bc sold at auction for the benefit of the
Western Sanitary commission. Gridley
was auctioncer and the bag was knocked
down for $3.50. The purchaser declined
to receive it and suggested that It be sold
again. The idea took like wiidfire and
the bag was sold again and again, aud be-
fore night the sum of 5000 had been
realized. Gri,lley saw fame for him and
gold for the sick soldiers opening before
him.
lie entered heart and soul into the idea
and he started with his now famous bag
of -four on an expedition which immor.
talized himself and brought JOY and com
fort to thousands Of suffering soldicrs
His reception everywhere was like RO
man triumph and the people, infected by
the noble work, vicd and struggled with
each other in generous rivalry. Gridley
sold his flour all ovar the West and final
ly exhibited 1t ut the great sanitary fab
In st. Louis. Afterward the four wa.
baked into small cakes and sold ut high
price. When the grand total US added
up 1t was found that Gr:diey's bet had
been the means of adding more than
$3.50, 600 to the funds of the Western
san;tary commission.
