A bet made by Ed. Lacy and James Slocum, publisher of the Holly Advertiser, lias laid out a tiresome journey for both. It is as follows: lu case Grover Cleveland is elected Slocum is to wheel Lacy to Fenton, a distance of 10 miles, on a wheelbarrow. In case Harrison is elected Lacy will hold the handles aud Slocum ride. Lacy weighs 183 pounds and Slocum 146. Lacy gives Slocum one mile off in case the latter has to do tlie wheeling, but that mile is not to be taken going out of Holly or into Fenton. This is done to offset the difference in weight. C. A. Wilson, and C. F. Collier are to accompany as referees and on the arrival at Fenton supper is to be served at the Roberts house at 4, to be paid by the one who rides. The wheeling is to take place within two weeks after election and 12 hours is allowed to make the journey. In case either backs out he forfeits $-รถ. B. Sterker and C. F. Collier are making a bet to furnish a band to accompany the wheelers. This bet is also based on general resulta. - Marlette Leader. Feel their way - Somnainbulists. Not masonic - Adirondack lodges. Brought in by the ear- Green coru. A hand to mouth trade - Dentistry.
