SOME ELECTION BETS.
Weird wagers to BE Decided by the
p Dle's Ballots.

Weird Wagers to Be Decided by the
p ple's Ballots.
Kinkley junction, Ind.-Henry Win
sted and John Barnes Of this place
have made an election bet that is
arousing a good deal of interest. II
Mckinley is elected, Barnes Is to get
down on his hands and knees in Win
sted's orchard and engage in butting
match with Southdown ram that has
q record of knocking hole through a
wall made of three inch oak planks.-
In case of Bryan's election Winsted
will drink three pints of hard cider
while standing on his head in an emp
ty flour barrel.
Burr Oak, Mich.-Arthur Williams,
the proprietor of Burr Oaks finest liv-
cry stable, has entered into written
agreement tolsupport George Stebbins'
mother-in-law during the rest of her
natural life if Bryan is elected presi-
dent next fall. Should Mckinley be
reelected Stebbins is to publicly twist
the tail of vicious mule that Williams
owns, repeating the performance every
day for three weeks or until the twister
is permanently disabled.
Deep Dells, Visa number of ex-
traordinary election bets have been
made in this vicinity, the queerest be-
ing that in which the principals are
George Wrenn and Samuel Carpenter
of Fishers Point. Wrenn is an ardent
Bryan man, and he so thoroughly be-
lieves in the justice of the issues rep
resented by the Nebraska candidate
that he has agreed in the event of the
election of Mckinley to walk back
ward during all the rest of his days,
no matter where he may be or what
may happen. Carpenter, on the other
hand, is so decided in his anticipations
of Republican success that he will, if
Bryan is elected, wear all his clothes
reversed. The hip pockets Of his trou-
sers will be in front, he will button his
coat and vest on his back. and even his
shirt and collar will be turned around
so that his necktie, instead of showing
under his chin, will be looped behind.
There is some talk of having Messrs
Wrenn and Carpenter taken into the
probate court for examination, but the
matter has not as yet assumed definite
}, shape.
Peru, Ills.-Horace Wilkes Of thi.
, city and Walter Cartwright of La Sail:
/ have made an election bet which il
strange, but true. Wilkes, who is al
ardent Republican, agrees If Bryan il
elected to give up his present bushes
and hire himself to Cartwright a
!, nurse for the latter's twin babies, nov
) months old, at a salary of 80 cents
! week in silver continuing in such serv
. ice until voluntarily released by hi
8 employer.
5 Cartwright has signed articles i
s which he promises if Mckinley sue

NE POPULAR VOTE CAST.
Mckinley Has a Larger Plural
Iity Over Bryan Than in
the Election of 1896.
lBRYANs VOTE is MUCH LESS
The Story Told in the official Count Which
is Completed in Nearly all the States.

CHICAGO, Dec. up to this time
it has not been possible to secure any
but unofficial figures and estimates on
the popular vote cast at the recent
presidential election in many states.
Correspondents in the state capitals
have obtained all the official figures
procurable up to this time and where
the official returns have not been re-
ceived the correspondents have secured
from the best sources possible estimat-
es based on such official returns as
have been reported to the proper state
officials.
In the State of New York, Texas,
Michigan and a few others the official
count will not be completed for some
days, but the figures sent by correspon-
dents from those states are as nearly
correct as can be secured at present.
Z While it is not possible at this time
to give the exact official totals on the
popular vote for president at the re,
cent election, it is believed that the
vote as shown by the complete official
returns will vary but a few thousand
at most from the totals given in the
following table.
Popular vote 1900. Popular vote 1891
