BETTING LIVELY AS

Betting on Yesterdays election was

at 10 to 6 Monday might. heightened to
10 to yesterday. with plenty of money
moving. Many bets We're laid at 10 to
9 that Crocker would finish ahead of
Leland
The district attorney fight was the
fayorite with the. gamblers. There was
much Fiekert money in evidence at 10

Some bets We're made even that Fickert
would win by 2.500.
Harry MulcreVy continued favOrite
in the fight for county clerk. Monday

supporters forced the betting to 10 TO

Fred Eggers stood 2 to 1 against the
field in the three cornered fight for
sheriff. The betting on Finn and DOIan
was even money for place.
Dr. C. c. O'Donneu was picked by

the arbitrary odds made by the profess
sionais were scarcely affected by the
public money. which began. to flood the
commissioners stands Sunday night.
Betting Is Lively
1t was expected that the appearance
of the small bettors. known among pro-
fessionaIs as the ten dollar boys"
would switch the price by bringing OUT
a better. expression of public opinion
That public opinion was with. the win
ners was amply demonstrated by the
small money thrown into the, ring on
Mccarthy and Fickert.
Mccarthy. who had been, d 10 to g
favorite since Sunday night went. to
10 toa4 before noon yesterday, and the
long odds failed to tempt a big play
after O'Clock. One freak of the pub
lie mind was demonstrated by the ap
pearance of some public or fixed:
money offered ait 10 to 8 that Croeker
would beat Leland for place.
Heney money in an. aggregate >of
small bets large enough to force the
F'ickert price back a point was dumped
into the commissioners rings and the
betting closed with Fickert 10 to s
favorite. Throughout the day there
was plenty of money to bet even that
Fickert would beat Heney by $500 and
the majority bettors got generous
play for their F1ckert money
Mulcrevy, union labor candidate for
county clerk. was backed up from a
to 1 favorite to 10 to Z. ODonnell
for coroner ruled an even money favor
ite against the field, and Eggers re-
mained an even money favorite against
the field for sheriff. A late public
hunch resulted in the offer of consid-
erable money that Finn, union labor
candidate, would nose out Dolan, DEM
ocratic and union labor candidate, for
place in the race for sheriff.

PROCLAMATION

TO THE PEOPLE OF HOPKINSVILLE:
In the death of John C. Latham.
in New York, August 18th, the city
of Hopkinsville has lost native son
who never ceased to cherish an af-
lection for his old home, though
forty years of his useful life were
spent in distant state. His public
benefactions, his works of ch arity,
his acts of benevolence. his generous
donations and his deeds of kindness
to the institutions, religious bodies
and deserving individuals of the city
he held so dear to his heart were
numberless and all combine to make
his death a cause Of universal sorrow.
In order that the citizens may in
some degree express the great grief
that is felt and show proper re-
spect to the memory Of the deceased
philanthropist and benefactor, |.
Charles NJ. Meacham, mayor of Hop
kinsville, hereby call upon the peo-
pile to close such places of business
as may be open on the Sabbath dur
ing the hours of his funeral, to show
respect to his memory in every ap
way and to ever hold in
loving remembrance our former
-ownsman whose body will be laid to
est in Riverside cemetery. our city |
# the dead, that he did so much to
and improve.
Done under my hand this August
9th, 1909.
CHARLES M. MEACHAM,
Mayor of Hopkinsvile, KY.
Hopkinsville Kentuckian. [volume] (Hopkinsville, Ky.) 1889-1918, 1909-08-21

At this writing it cannot be def
initely announced at what hour the
funeral of the late John G. Latham
will be held. 1t will in all probabili-
ty be about four o'clock tomorrow
afternoon.
1t is understood that the funeral
will be held at the residence, though
the plans are all awaiting Mrs.
Latham's decision today, She ar
rived with the body last night and
is now at the summer home at Sew.
enth and Campbell streets.
The city council met in regular
session last night, but adjourned out
of respect to Mr.. Latham's memory,
after adopting suitable resolutions,
and the mayor and councilmen went
in a body to meet the remains Of the
deceased banker.
The city council has ordered pail
to cover the hearse and to be used
at the mausOleum that will be the
most elaborate design ever seen in
the city. 1t will be eight feet wide
and twelve.feet long, covered with
flowers.
The Bridge Committee, OF which
Councilman Davis is chairman, mas
made an arrangement with the
bridge contractors by which the
funeral procession can pass over the
North Main street bridge. The
bridge is now ready for the concrete
floor to be laid, but Mr.. Decker, who
is in charge of the work, has consent
ed to let a temporary floor be laid
that can be used. and defer the con-
crete work until Monday. The
streetsgleading to the cemetery and
the cemetery itself have been given
special attention and everything will
be in good shape for the obsequies.
Any business houses allowed to be
open on the Sabbath will be closed
by the Mayors Proclamation during
the exercises.
