contains a lot of pretty and handsomely
clad women, who sing and dance well.
Idylla Vyner frankie Haines and the

lesque is particularly attractive The per-

ABOUT 10000 WAGERED
REPUBLICAN MONEY GOES BEGGING
IN THIS CITY.
Odds Of Three 90 One still offered on
the Boards - Digger Odds
Among Individuals.

1t is estimated that nearly 10000 has
been wagered in this city on the result
of the election. Last night the boards in
the public betting places were covered with
Mckinley money. and there were but few
bets taken. The odds on Mckinley had
advanced from TO l to 81 10 !. and there
were bets at these odds ranging as high as
$500.
In the crowd wagers were offered as high
as 5 and 10 I on Mckinley. This was
done in order TO avoid paying a commits
sion. In one place an offer OF $3.50 to
$500 was posted that Mckinley would be
elected There have been several bets
posted and taken on Mckinley at odds
OF 1900 10 $500. The most OF the boards
are covered with small bets. such as so
to $40 that Mckinley will carry Indiana;
500 TO $50 that Durbin will be elected:
SIS to SIS that McKinley's majority in In
diana will exceed 1900 Bets of SO 10 So
that the Republicans will elect the whole
county ticket can be found in great num-
bers.
The Republicans have offered even money
that Bryan will not get over 20 electoral
votes. but the Democrats have taken them
as soon as they were posted. Very Few
tickets have been sold on combination
bets. Offers that Mckinley viii have 200
electoral votes. at even money, have not
been taken. The prevailing odds on the
State that IL will be carried by both Nc
Kinley and Durbin range from "a TO 1
TO 3 to I.
A bet of $1,000 TO $4,000 that Bryan will
carry New York, Indiana and Illinois IN
said to have been made at the Grand Hotel.
The betting has not been as lively this
year as IL was in 1886. Most of those who
have betting boards say they handled near
~ twice as much money four years ago.
1t Is expected. however, that there will be
considerable money posted to-day.

Two large audiences at the Park Treater
yesterday afternoon and last night well
coined Hyde's Comedians with Helene Mora
and Rose Coghlan as extra attractions.
The Musical Colbys, a man and woman
and little boy and girl. opened the OHIO.
The children easily carried off the honoTs
of this turn. Mr.. and Mrs. Gene Hughes
next introduced their little farce "A Matri-
mOnial Substitute by Charles HOrritZ
with which they managed TO keep the aii-
dience in roars OF laughter until the fall
of the curtain. The Nichols sisters were
given a friendly greeting on their entry
and reciprocated with one of the best sing
have ever shown. Miss Mora. one of the
bright particular stars of the organiZa-
ton, next appeared and attired in hand
some gown, sang Sweet Marguerite and
THE Navy, The Gallant Navy" in "a way
that fairly took the house by storm. For
the second encore, Miss Mora rendered
'The Holy City" i'm her own inimitable
fashion. The first part of the entertain
ment closed with unique exhibition OF
wire-walking and ladder balancing by the
Holloway trio. Fred Niblo talked his way
into the confidence of the audience after
the intermission. He was followed by Miss
Coghlan In the playlet Between Matinee
and Night written by herself and James
c. Harvey. Miss Coghian was ably as
sisted by Mr.. Louis Massen, Miss Elizabeth
French and Miss Mary Lake. Burton and
Brooks scored heavily with their political
songs and jokes. The performance con-
cluded with the lively and entertaining
comedy acrobatic and Juggling turn OF
O'Neil and Torp. The company will remain
the rest of the week, giving performances
twice daily. Tonight election returns will
be read from the stage.

BOARD OF TRADE GOVERNORS.
Three New Members EIected-The
Routine business.

The Board of Trade governors held a
short session last night and on account
OF the small attendance little aside from
the regular routine business was done.
Three deaths We're reported-James w.
Thompson, George E. Townly and James
K. Ross. The members elected in their
places are Walter p. Scott, Chauncey H.
Clark and Charles w. Kriel. The committee
for the promotion of manufacturing in
dustries presented a resolution with the
recommendation that a special committee
be selected to look after securing land for
locating such enterprises. i'm addition TO
the natural facilities Indianapolis affords
The resolution and recommendation were
concurred in and the committee was ap-
pointed TO act as a special committee. The
communication of the Chamber of Com
merce of Cleveland o.. asking the financial
support of the local Board of Trade 10
maintain permanent representative at
Washington TO look after legislation re-
garding the consular service, was disposed
CT by declaring the board I'm sympathy with
the movement, but that no financial as
sistance could be given there Is no func
for that purpose.
A resolution was adopted which will be
presented 10 Governor Mount. asking him

ADJUSTMENTS.
Andrew Robson i'm ssThe Royal Box
at English's.

Andrew Robson and capable company
presented 1.-The Royal Box at Englishs
Opera House last night to audience that
was unquestionably select. but scarcely
commensurate in size with the merit of
play and production. Some day the public
will give Mr.. Robson the recognition he
deserves as romantic actor of rare grace
and polish Just why theatergoers are so
niggardIy of their commentator is puzzle
difficult of solution. Most of the great stars
of the theatrical armament able, how
ever. to recall with ease day not so far
in the past when their best efforts were
bestowed upon empty seats. The only thing
for Mr.. Robson to do Is to keep plugging
away until he strikes piece in which the
public will want TO see him. Clearly they
do not want THE Royal Box thrilling
and interesting and dramatic as Ii I'M
doubtedly Is. "The Royal Box then must
be abandoned. There will be chosen
few who appreciate and admire the de-
lightful, substantial old costume plays that
will regret the passing Of this, which Is
one of the foremost examples OF that school
OF the drama Better the play be sacrificed,
though, than such an actor as Andrew

excellence OF his work. Mabel Wright has
succeeded Gertrude Coghlan in the principal
feminine character of Celia Pryce and is In
every way far better adapted to the part
