HEARTS WERE BET.
Odd Wager by Two Sioux City Young
Women on Cummins.


Sioux City, Ia, Nov. S.-One woman
youthful and pretty-bet her heart
against the heart of another maiden
of like charms, on the recent election
The one who lost is not to be subject
ed to the ordeal which Shylock had
planned for Antonio, but she has had
to relinquish her Hearts DESIRE" the
love of certain young business man
of this city.
Politics has permeated all classes
and grades of society during the cam
paign just past. This has been the
home of George d. Perkins, who bolt
ed the republican ticket when he was
defeated by Cummins for the guberna-
torial nomination. He is prominent
and his influence split the party and
kept interest up. The young women,
in question, whose paas are normally
republican, talked politics one evening
and made their novel bet-one that
Cummins would be reelected govern
or and the other that Porter, the DEM
ocratic nominee, would win.
They were admirers of the young
business man and each was so sure
of winning the wager and thus Kidding
herself of a rival, that the stakes were
quickly agreed to.
The young man had been paying at
tention to both-that Is what troubled
them. They weren't sure to which Of
the twain the majority of his affec-
lions belonged. Realizing that nv
wager could be made which would
satisfy him, if he were in love with
the loser, the stipulation was that the
one who lost was to refuse to accept
attentions from the young man and
thus discourage him. The winner
thought they, would then be able to
have "clear sailing"
The names of these heart-gamblers?
Oh, mercy! 1t would never do to tell
them. They belong to we'll known
families, and while guessing may be
good, to fix their identity would be
prolific of too much embarrassment
and might scare away the object of
their wager from both.
Other novel bets reported In this
city were between married people, one
husband agreed to give up smoking for
a year if Cummins was reelected,
while his wife promised to eliminate
the chewing gum during a like period
If Porter won. Another husband bet
on Congressman Hubbard's success,
STIMULATING that in case of his defeat
his wife should have violets as long
as the season lasted and American
beauties the balance of the year.
Dickson's success would have meant
that she was never to ask him to play
cards with few friends have asked
in for the evening""

NORFOLK AS A NURSERY POINT

Among other industries that have
been built up in Norfolk primarily be-
cause of tbs admirable geographical
location as the gateway of the new
northwest, is that of growing trees
and raising fruit The nursery bust
ness in Norfolk is an important one
today, both because it gives employ
ment to large number of persons at
various periods of the year and be-
cause it is a vital factor in helping to
make Norfolk a distributing center.
e. d. Hammond is proprietor of the
Norfolk Nursery, located a mile east
of the city; C. f. Turnbull is proprie-
tor of the Ekhorn nursery, north of
the city.
During the summer time between
seventy-five and 100 boys and girls are
give Unemployment at these nurseries
Boys hoe in the patches of berries and
fruit and girls pick fruit of all sorts.
Much of the product remains nj Nor
folk but a large quantity is shipped
all over the northern part of the state
and even to more distant points. The
express companies find that their bust
ness is increasing each year and par
TALLY by reason of the large and in
creasing amount of nursery business
being done from here. Tomatoes
grown in Norfolk afford delicaceis in
Deadwood and other Black Hills
points. Strawberries, cherries apples
and other fruits are raised here for
the market in large quantities.
Trees are raised here and sold all
over the northwest by agents who
cover the territory.

Work on the Rosebud extension OF
the Northwestern railroad, out from

year. The construction work has been
completed eight and half miles out
from Bonestocl and the camp of work.
men has been moved beyond St
Charles. With the extension, the
Rosebud reservation towns are feeling
happy because 1t will mean that pro.
visions of all sorts will be brought to
them much cheaper, the prices on
their farms will advance and more
people will so in, People in that sec
ton look for the opening within a few
years of Trip county, which will bring
another rush of people through here.
The opening of this increased territory
means much to Norfolk, adding to the
commercial prestige of this city as the
center of vast area. Norfolk is talk
ing advantage of this geographical To-
cation in many lines of industry right
now, and the field is coming TO be
more regarded as valuable to this
point.
Heavy Railroad Traffic.
Railroad traffic in this division of
the Northwestern is stll very heavy

are being worked without vacations.

BETS MADE ON ELECTION
WAGERs WERE MADE IN NORTH
NEBRASKA ON RESULTS.
SOME BET ON sHALLgNeEReER

One Man In Stanton Lost $40 Because
Of One Vote Which George Eberly
Got as County Attorney - Even
Money Was Placed on New York.
Betting on election is always a pref
ty fair guage as to the interest taken
in the campaign and there was an
unusual amount of wagering on the
recent off-year election by people of
northern Nebraska. Some of the wag-
ers were of pretty good size and some
of them were won or lost by mighty
close margins-so close, in fact, that
in some cases the official canvass will
be necessary to determine the win
ners.
AS an example of the interest taken
on the gubernatorial election by Nor
folk republicans and democrats, one
bet was made several weeks ago, even
money, that Sheldon would have at
least 1000 plurality. The democrat
in this instance had been proclaiming
his faith in the election of Shallen-
berger and had declared to a promi-
HSuJ lepuDllCduy why HAL, you uOu L
have any show to elect your ticket at
all this year."
How much will you bet on that?"
asked the republican.
"I'll bet you $50 that Sheldon does
not get 1000 plurality"
The republican happened to have
the fifty right with him. The demo
crat dug out his and the bet was made.
Sheldon got $4,000 plurality.
One Vote Changed $40.
Down in Stanton one vote for
George A. Eberly as county attorney
changed $40. One man bet another
that Eberly would not have more than
100 majority as county attorney. Eb-
erly is a republican and his friends
think that in democratic Stanton coun-
ty, which gave Graves about $50, that
Eberly did mighty well. He got 101
majority.
Interest in the New York election
reached the betting point in Norfolk.
Two young men wagered S. each on
the election, even money.
