Who Carried California?

There are a good many people in
this city who bet on Mckinley or
Bryan carrying California, and as
Bryan got one elector and Mckinley
the other eight a dispute has arisen.
Here is what THE San Ffancise Post
says:
In answer to an inquiry as to the
winner OF "A bet in which "A" wagers
''B" that Mckinley w"uld carry Cal
ifornla, we would state that in a
similar case, when Kentucky was the
state in question. E stern authorities
decided that the state must be credited
To Mckinley, since he had a plurality
by comparing either the vote for the
highest electors or the average vote
for all the electors Oh both tickets

The Question of Kissing.

to kiss should be part OF 've;y young
persons education. Perhaps there is,

1t il a matter OF much more impor-
lance than the Balletin seems to i'm
a5ine. Many a man goes through
life with the idea that he can kiss
everybody he pleas-s, when possibly a
good many people who receive his
oscillations had much rather do with
out them.
Again many a bashful man has
lacked the nerve to come to the center
when the p rty OF the. second part is
really anxious to have him. Knowing
just when to kiss is also important.

THE ATHLETIC CLUB.
1t Has Been Sadly Neglected
Since Election.

A couple of weeks prior to election
the Carson Athletic Club was started
III this city with the most suspicious
prOspect-. II had u somewhat mixed,
but earnest membership, and all
classes Of fecple who took the slight
est interest in athletics we're allowed
to come in. 1t did not draw the color
line. 1t was proposed to have hori-
zontal bars. dumb bells, boxing
gloves, Indian clubs and oYh.r para
phanalia for the person who seeks the
high plane Of physical culture.
The club became So large that after
a while il decided to take an active in
terest in politics. All the candidates
were requested to SHOW t'.eir devotion
to athletic art by gu scil5tnk to the
worthy aims Of b club, and in order
to save the expense Of b okkeeping

the members devoted their time to the
pulling Of corks, rolling kegs Of beer
into the rooms Of the club and other

since the election, the club has fallen
into a disurtude purely of the in
! nocuous order. A reporter visited the
