WILL SHE LOSE HER HARP
a Novel Bet Between Young Lady and
Young Man.

~ NONel Bet I3etWeen a Dung Lady and
Young Man
There was bet made in Newborn last
week which has the novelty of at least
being original. a young lady became
greatly interested in the success of the
Newbern team in the races at Salisbury.
The Journal says a gentleman friend
was twitting her about the races, and
saying the Newbern boys would win the
championship. She could not see it. The
boys had failed to win a single first prize
and they were sure to lose the belt.
Discussion finally led to wagers, when
the gentleman said: "Now, / will bet
you that Newbern wins. If Newborn
loses l will let you order the barber to cut
my hair as short as he can, and if New
bern wins / will order him to cut your
hair as short as l want it, close to your
head =
The bet was accepted. Friday night the
young lady was a little pale when re-
minded of her bet, but she was dead
game, and said she was ready to pay the
bet.
The gentleman has not yet ordered the
bet to be paid, but he can get it when he
wishes to bring on the barber.-Twin-
