Wheeling people cannot vote to-day,
but they can bet and cheer for their

interest in an election are not wanting.
Indeed It'll not often that greater inter-
eat Is taken even in local election.
The new ballot law in Ohio is matter

Predictions have been heard, and
those who do not bet still have their
own opinions OF the way the thing will
come out, but there seems to exist in
Wheeling general state OF preparation
for any event. There was moro betting
several days ago than since. Either all
tho Democratic money WIS put up or
they became more cautious. Yesterday
two OF tho most prominent Democrats
i'll town took several big bets that Nc.
kinlcy would have over 10000 plural
ity. Avaricious Republicans started a
report that tho Ohio Republicans were
uneasy and that private messages had
been received here advising people not
to bet any moro money on Mckinley,
bu. this did not catch any suckers. The
Democrats wero too wary, and some OF
them, who, when they bet, bot TO win,
tried to use these reports to get their
fellow Democrats to put up their cash,
that they might cover it.

Oh which the ends OF the arch rest.
They rest on the projecting part OF the

practically the arch runs clear down
into the abutment. The wing walls are
about done, and when they are COM

every expectation. The club is COM
posed OF Miss Agnes Florian, contralto;
Mile Edica, soprano; Chas. T. Hig-
gins, violin virtuoso; Rudolf Won Scarpa,
pianist, and II. Cornelius, clarinetist.
Miss Florian is an artist OF rare ability.
Her voice is full and rich, her intona-
ton true and her phrasing well nigh per-
feet. Mile Edica sang in good style
Rossini's "Bel Raggio" and "Casta
Diva" from Norma" besides several
cncorcs. Mr.. Higgins repeated his sue

spond to several recalls. Mr.. Won

The not springs of Dakota.

These springs are randy becoming ia
nous on account of the wonderful cura-
i've properties OF the waters. and the
many marvellous cures which have been
effected by the thermal baths.
The town and springs are delightfully."-
situated In a picturesque valley in the
Black Hills country, Astounding in beau
tiful scenic effects and at an altitude of
3.400 feet above the sea level; thus insur-
ing a pure atmosphere and exhilarating
climate, absolutely free from malaria.
Under the enterprising and progressive
management of the Hot Springs company
many desirable improvements have been
made; among the number the erection of
a commodious bath house fitted up with
all modern c~onveniences for the comfort
Of guests. New hotels have been built
and comfortably furnished throughout,
conducted in first-class style and at rea-
sonable rates. Those who prefer stopping
at a private house will find many board
ing places where good accommodations
are furnished, and at moderate prices.
The superior daily service now afforded
by the Burlington route to Hot Springs,
with through sleeping car accommoda-
tons from Omaha, Lincoln, Aurora and
Grand Island, makes the trip an easy and
enjoyable one; ard for the benefit of al
who desire to test the efficacy of the
waters, round trip tickets at reduced rates
good for ninety DAYS, are now on sale n
all Offices OF the Burlington route.

of gaining a prize becomes very remote.
Such events as high jumping, standing
and running broad jumping, pole vault
ing, shot putting, ETC., can be practiced in
any gymnasium or ordinary sized hall or
room. All that is necessary is a thick
mattress to land on when jumping. For
pole vaulting al ordinary deal board
should be screwed to the ioor to afford a
grip for the spiked end of the pole.
Weights for indoor purposes can be pro-
cured of any sporting goods manufacturer.
They are generally made of a canvas or
leather bag filled with duck shot Many
athletes use very short and sharp spikes
indoors. They are certainly an ad-
vantage for starting and jumping, but for
distance running l prefer a good thick
rubber soled shoe, as it acts as a cushion
and saves the feet to a great extent A
little rosin rubbed on the soles of ones
shoes will effectively counterfeit slipping.
l also think that a board floor track,
four laps to the mile, with easy corners
slightly raised, would be as fast for run
ming as any outdoor track in existence
One great advantage is that indoors therN
is no wind to contend against. This IL
why n~opstayers always show to advantage
