HALF MILLION DOLLARS
BET ON ELECTION
Hughes Odds Have Disappeared and
Wilson is Expected to Be Favored
by Next Week.

New York, Oct. 28.-Half e. million
dollars has been wagered on the re-
suit of the election at the big hotels
here during the past week. The esti-
mate was made today from the re-
ports of the betting commissioners
and stake. holders making their head
quarters in the uptown betting dis
trict.
The odds which have favored
Hughes up to the present were wiped
out in the betting money. All the bet
ting, and there was comparatively
little of it, was made at even money.
The scarcity of Hughes hackers was
explained by the desire of the Re-
publican supporters to get better
odds. 1t is generally believed that
next week will see the odds 10 to 8
in favor of President Wilson.
Only three large bets were record
ed today at the hotels. Tex Rickard,
the sporting promoter, put $1,000 at
even money on the presidents chance
of reelection. John A. Drake took
the Hughes end. Rickard, with S.55,-
900 more to bet on general and Ohio

STUNNED
BY STUNTS OF GIRLS

Atlanta, Ga, Oct. 2S.-The sudden
appearance of half a dozen pretty
girls, led by soubrette very scantily
attired, almost broke up banquet of
automobile tire statesmen holding a
district convention in this city.
A newspaper man who knows the
manager of the theater where the
girls were playing got his permission
to "pull the stunt" if the girls would
consent, and they went to it with en-
thusiasm. Without a word of warn
ing the girls tripped into the dining
room where the tire experts were
feasting and began to trip the light
fantastic around the banquet board.
An elderly agent in the party be-
came so enamored of the charms of
the scantily clad soubrette that he
essayed friendly slap on the back,
which made her mad as a hornet, and
the festivities adjourned almost as
suddenly as they had commenced.

Made a Costly Mistake.

A big commercial house in the mid
die west raised the salary OF one of it's
officers to $4,000 year
The officer was greatly pleased.
Now my ambition is satisfied" he
said
Within two years the concern had
found way to dispense with this Of
ficer's services. 1t was done cleverly
and smoothly. The man never suspect
ed the real reason why he was releas sed.
The head Of the concern had over
heard his remark. I'VE want no men
in this business whose ambition is sat
isfied." he said. "NVhcn man is sat
fed, when he ceases to plan and fight

SAN FELICE CIGARS
Five Cents Straight and Worth 1t!

Five Cents Straight and Worth 1t!
Owing to the greatly increased cost
of quality tobaccos, in fact everything
pertaining to high grade cigars, the
makers of the San Felice cigar, The
Deisel-Wemmer Company, have ad-
vanced the selling price to the Job
bers and Dealers, and henceforth this
cigar will positively be sold to the
consumer at 5 cents straight instead
OF six for quarter as previously.
The San FEUICE is national in it's
scope and character, having justly at
tained this eminence through it's un-
cIcelled excellence. To maintain this
unequaled standard of quality, the
advance in question is absolutely un-
avoidable. The generous support of
all men using quality cigars is earn
estly desired.

Salonika, Dec. live smashed up
wagon load of refugees as we went
along. 1t was one of those pltiful car,
loads Of household goods, with an old
woman and baby sitting on the pile
and the younger and stronger mem
bers of the family plodding along in
the mud before or alongside the two
oxen. As we turned down the road,
the perpleXed peasants turned the OK
en- and headed for roadside ditch.
The unusual sight of an automobile
seemed to frenzy them. A woman and
man stuck the oxen with sticks. The
wheels went down with crash and
everybody screamed. The old woman
held up the baby in her arms. The
body of the wagon settled down into
the ditch, on its side. Gently the old
woman and. the baby slid off INTO the
mud. Beside the road was a camp of
British engineers and we saw them
flocking by scores from their tents to
the scene of the household wreck BY
the time we had passed fifty or more
of these parties of refugees, we knew
that somewhere ahead the retreat was
under way. AS we went along the
mountain roads in the French ambu-
lance, we knew how comfortable q
wounded man must be in such a car.
In addition to the spring Of the pneu-
matte tires there were tine springs Of
the car itself. The stretcher 'seats on
(which we sat were hung by a third SER
les of springs from steel bars which
were suspended from the ceiling of the
ear by spiral springs. The motion of
the ambulance, except for a slight
swaying, was almost imperceptible.
Shell Wakes En- Up.
Just when we were marvelling at the
comfort with which we were travelling
and comparing our situation with that
of the sad line of refugees, there was
a terrific explosion at the roadside and
the shrek of a shell A shell drills
o tunnel through the air and through
this tunnel the echoes Of the whistling
of the shell jar and clash and mix in
one long whine. The shell we heard
was leaving us. Through the embu-
lance window we saw first cloud of
smoke and then the outline of huge
gun which stood at least eight feet
above the ground on giant wheels and
had mouth that a man could have
put his head into. The great cannon
stood within fifteen feet of the road
but it was so cleverly sheltered and
hidden by decorations of holly that we
had not seen it.
"Let's get out and photograph it,,
said one correspondent.
"Not here" said our lieutenant
guide. "The Bulgars are across the
valley and if we stop long enough tC
