TANDARB 4 THE BAM . 6 Vol. V. No. 158. THE BETTERS 1VILL BET Tbat Clerelani Will be Elected In m Jforeiuber. J Bischofs, agent for Fleming Bros. Co., Pittsburg, wa,s at Thomp- soli's drug store today trying to make a bet that Cleveland would be elected. To a reporter he said ' "1 am a Republican, but I travel, see, and- hear a great deal and am convinced that Cleveland will win. My tour brothers in Tittsburg will thi3 year vote the Democratic ticket, although they have been Republi cans for twenty and thirty years." "How will Pennsylvania go 'this time ?" "The Ttepublican majority will be reduced about 40,000. In Pitts burg and Homestead nearly all the workingmen will vote for Cleveland" "What is your impression about West Virginia ?' "I will bet forty to twenty-five that West Virginia goes Democratic. The laboring people there are in, sympathy with the workiegmen of Pennsylvania." What do you think of North Carolina and the South ?'' ' "Well, I have traveled all over the South and am conyinced that 'there will be a Solid South. I wasit to place some bets that North Caro lina will go for Cleveland." A Pathetic Incident. A personal that appeared in a daily paper recently was followed up by rather queer results. "Jack," it read, "do come to me. My love is unchanged. Come and speak to me for a moment. I'll be at the corner of ," and then followed the name3 of the streets 'and the time. It was 'signed "Matchy." At the appointed hour a few idlers arranged to pasa there and see thatf .lovesick , "Matchy" who wanted "Jack." There stood a little care worn, white-haired woman hi shabby black, her arms folded hopelessly, her eyes watching up and down thei street. As it turned out, from a question put to her by a sympa thetic onlooker, "Jack" was a way ward son, "Matchy" the pet name for mother.-vChicago Mail. Republicans Withdrawn.

A Presbyterian Preacher In a Gown. Rav. R P. Kerr, D. D., pastor of the First Psesbyterian church, who 13 one of the most popular and disJ , tinguished divines in the United1 State states, has notyied thg members of aTs congregation thai da and, 'after h!s next Sunday, .he will wear the IVesbyterian gown while holding services, In'hia letter Dr. Kerr states the following ia connection with the proposed innovation : 'The ssion cordially and unani mously consented to it, as this black gown is the distinctive mark of the Presbyterian ministry throughout the world, and has been from the origin of cur Church, and is now used by our ministers in Great Brita;n, Ireland, the continent of Europe generally,' in Canada and Australia, aud by an increasing nunber in ,the United State?, It is being taken up in this country as an assertion of the dignity and sol emnity of the oltice'of the ambassa dor of Christ, a mark of historic Presbyterianismk and a protest against the common degradation of the pulpit of our time and country." Only eighteen members declared themselves a3 not in favor of wear ing the gown, aud yet they did not very strongly oppose it. The result was announced from the pulpit Sunday evening.

She dresses gaudily and always wears bracelets, tassels and a blue sash with white stars. Some peoph who have seen her think she ia a white man or white womm blacked up. Several Third party white men have become so disgusted ai this spectacle of a negress stumping for Weaver that they have left their party. The New Bern Journal 3ays : "It is said she and her crowd had a jub ilee one night at Ilesriot'J School house, and that there were actually white men in the 'house, with such low principles a3 to cheer her when, She advocated social (iqualUy and the intermarriage of the races.

In the de-pot? however stood an inquisitive game inspector, John E Lisk by naraa. As he is entitled, under the law to one-half of the fines imposed upon persons breaking the game laws, Inspector Lisk des cided to look into the bag carried by the clergyman's valet. The res Isult wa3 that the' clerical huntsman and his man wero arraigned before Justice Ackers. There the robins were, dumped out on. the floor and couuted with great gusto by the inspector. At $5 each Mr. Dixon wtis fined $155. The elegy man expostulated, but without avail. The law was pointed out to him, and although he had broken it unknowingly hswcs none tho less guilty.
