BETTING CLOSED FAVORING CAUSE Campaign at Indianapolis Ended Last Night, Looking Quite Democratic. SHANK STILL CONFIDENT

TH0U3AND8 OF DOLLARS HAVE BEEN WAGERED ON THE OUTCOMEOTHER INDIANA CITIES HAVE BIG FIGHTS.

Indianapolis, Nov. 2. Representa tlve Charles A. Gauss, democratic nominee for mayor, closed the campaign yesterday a favorite in the betting over Samuel Lewis Shank, his republican opponent. A week ago odds of 10 to 4 were offered that Shank would be elected. The Gauss men demanded two for one, and many of them were reluctant, four or five days ago, to risk anything at those figures. As an indication, however, that Gauss has been making gains in public opinion, the betting has shifted, and the offerings yesterday bore out the forecasts that at the finish Gauss would be the favorite. The betting was lively. Hundreds of excited men hung around the boards looking for bargains. One commissioner offered $1,000 even that Gauss would win. The bet was not taken. It la the general supposition here

that the Denlson House betting board

Is backed by National Committeeman

Taggart and Crawford Fairbanks, the

Terre Haute brewer, who are said to have raised an enormous campaign fund for the benefit of Gauss. Shank Men Ask Odds. All of the even money on Shank

was taken early yesterday at the Denl

son, and before noon the Shank men

were asking ten for eight. Their money was taken readily. At Walker's and the Kingston a large amount

of even money was offered on Gauss end taken. After noon the Shank men asked as

high as 10 to 7 that their candidate

will be elected. The republican leaders were chagrined at the turn in the betting, but were unwilling to concede that it meant anything more than a hard fight for their candidate. Taggart was not on hand yesterday, which caused no end of comment among the politicians. It was apparent, however, that he must have done his work well before his departure for French Lick Saturday night, as his henchmen were out on the job, pulling hard for Gauss. It was declared by politicians gen

erally that if Gauss is elected Taggart

will be the high mogul of the democratic party in Indiana. He took

charge of the Gauss campaign two weeks ago, when it was in the dumps, and has brought it up to the point where three out of every five politicians are picking Gauss as a winner. I Gives Taggart Control. j A victory for Gauss will be a big plume in Taggart's cap. and it Is asserted will give him a high hand in any effort he may make to control the democratic organization next year. One of Shank's managers said last night that he has it from the Inside of the democratic organization that the latter expect to elect Gauss by a plurality of 800. The republicans will be tickled almost to death if Shank has 500, although he was regarded as a sure-thinger a month ago for at least 5,000. The fear expressed by Shank's followers was that hundreds of republicans on the north side will not voto for him. A supreme effort is being made now by the republicans to get out the voters who are expected to stay at home rather than vote either for Shank or for Gauss. It is believed that the republicans will elect all of their city ticket, with the possible exception of Shank, as the democrats are using the ammunition in favor of Gauss. Both Are Confident. Both mayoralty candidates expressed confidence last night in their ability to carry Indianapolis. Shank did not give any figures. Gauss was bolder, saying he would have a plurality exceeding 5,000. Chairman Moore, of the democratic committee, predicted democratic victory by 6,000. Chairman Klaussman, of the republican organization, expressed confidence that his side would be victorious. Reports from the larger cities indicate that the campaign is closing generally in a whirlwind fashion. The results at Evansville is in doubt, with the chances slightly In favor of Mayor Nolan, democrat. Ft, Wayne favors Grice, republican, against Schmidt. Lafayette will be favorable to Mayor Durgan, democrat, It i said.

BUFFALO JONES IS GOING TO AFRICA

Lasso to Be Only Weapon that The Old Plainsman Will Carry.

HE CAN ROPE ANY SRUTE

JONES IS NOW CLOSING UP A SUCCESSFUL LECTURING TOUR IN BOSTON IS A GREAT FRIEND OF ROOSEVELT.

Garden City, Kan., November 2. A letter from C. J. (Buffalo) Jones to the

Garden City Telegram, announces that he expects to go to Africa on his deferred hunting expedition in March, 1010, and will then carry out his Idea of roping the bests he wants. Mr. Jones is now lecturing in Boston and has made arrangements to remain there practically all of the time until he leaves for Africa. The pioneer, frontiersman, and "animal Burbank," will probably come west on a hurried trip in November, however, and says he will stop here on his way to New Mexico to look over his ranch there. Jones is now closing up a successful and profitable engagement at the Star theater in Boston, giving an illustrated lecture. A representative of a big concern that is on the lookout for noted lecturers approached Mr. Jones and told him he would contract with him every day for one year, but on account of other plans he had to decline. No Trick at All to Rope Them. Mr. Jones does not write much about his approaching trip to Africa, which he outlined in the Telegram about a year ago. but sends the Telegram a clipping from a Boston newspaper, profusely illustrated, in which is said: " 'There is no four-footed animal under the sun that can not be captured by the lasso of a cowboy, backed by the intelligence of an American cattle pony,' declares Charles J. Jones, better known as Buffalo Jones, ex-warden of

the Yellowstone National park, personal friend of Colenel Roosevelt, and breeder of catalo, the' hybrid animal.

half cow and half bison, as well as of

the hybrid sheep, the goriasin.

"Mr. Jones is at present stopping in

this city, and he will remain in Boston until early in March next, when he

will sail for Africa and go into the big game country now being hunted by Roosevelt, to show his powers with the rope. "One of the country's national characters, and one of the few surviving plainsmen who made it possible forty years ago for emigrants to find safe homes among the redskins of the far west, Jones has a particularly warm spot in his heart for Boston; for the city is the birthplace of his parents, and this is one of the reasons he came here before embarking upon what he considers one of the greatest undertakings of his eventful life." When He Caught Mountain Lions. Concerning his Yellowstone experiences, Mr. Jones is quoted: "In Yellowstone park, where I went at the request of President Roosevelt, I met with a terrible condition among the animals there. They were being slaughtered by the thousands, and the mountain lion was the cause. I roped over a hundred of these fellows while I was there, and sent them to zoos and private animal collections." As to his prospective plans for the African trip, Jones says: "Now that I have my herds, both at home and in the park, coming along in good shape. I have come into the east to spend the winter. From here I expect, if the unforeseen does not happen, to go to Africa, at the request of a number of western sporting men, who are fitting me out. "There I am to demonstrate for these men that there is no animal, no matter how large, which can not be roped and subdued with the aid of the lasso and a good, intelligent cow pony."

What Became of the Clermont 7 The final whereabouts of the historic vessel remains a mystery. It has been asserted rhat she was finally transported as the Henrietta to the Cape Fear river. North Carolina, where Fulton himself as early as 1313 had suggested the formation of a steam navigation company. Another authority, Mr. J. Seymour Bullock, states that the boat was broken np when further important Improvements rendered her antiquated shape and construction unequal to the increased traffic upon the riTer and that the Tibs" of the hull were used under the wharf in Jersey City, where the Secor foundry built monitors during the civil war.

county kifirmary with the exception of Mrs. Ida May Winters who ha3 been readmitted to Eastern Indiana hospital for the insane. Col. C. E. Wiley, president of the board stated that a number of Improvements had been made to the county infirmary and that the cuarters were suitable for the insane's confinement. For the present Frank Townsend will have suljervision over the inmates but the commissioners expect to place the insane under the care of an experienced person within a short time. The number of insane women now at the Home for Friendless is seven.

HANDY CONTRIVANCE.

A Shoe Box and Couch Made From Grocery Boxes. A shoe box and seat is a useful piece of furniture in the bedroom. Two boxes purchased at a grocery store can be made to serve the purpose, but to make a really strong affair the frame should be constructed of. boards three-quarters or seveneighths of an inch in thickness. A good size for the box is twenty-four inches high, fifteen deep and sixteen wide, while the seat box may be thirty inches long and fifteen inches high and deep. These boxes are to be attached to each other with stout screws, and a back the length of the two boxes, having a rounded corner. Is to be securely fastened to the rear of each box. In the shoe box two shelves are screwed fast, and to the lower box a cover is arranged on hinges, so that it can be raised from the front. The back, seat and top of the shoe box can be covered with denim, under which a padding of hair or cotton will make a softer back and seat. The denim may be caught down or "tufted" with carriage b.uttons, and string passed through holes made in the wood can be tied at the reverse side. Around the front and sides a valance of cretonne or denim may be gathered and hung from the top edge of the box and seat, fasteued at the edge by gimp and tacks. Brass beaded upholsterers' nails driven at regular distances apart will present the best appearance. Where the valance at the edge of the shoe box meets the seat the fabric is to be divided in order that it may be drawn to one side when taking out or replacing shoes. A coat of shellac or paint will cover the exposed parts of the woodwork not hidden by the upholstery goods.

Ancient Houses. Chimneys were wholly unknown to the ancients, who had to let the smoke of their fires escape through an opening in the roof. Chimneys came into use In the fourteenth century. It was in the same century that glass for windows put in its appearance. At a much later date the home comforts were very scarce. Even in gentlemen's houses the second story where there happened to be one was approached from the outside, the walls were bare, without wainscot or plaster, their barrenness being, as a rule, unrelieved by picture or decoration. :

If It Disappears, It's Eczema. How to Tell Whether a Skin Affection is an Inherited Blood Disease or Not. Sometimes it is hard to determine whether a skin affection is a sign of a blood disorder or simply a form of eczema. Even physicians are often puzzled in their diagnosis. The best way for any one afflicted is to go to W. H- Sudhoff's or any good druggist who handles pure drugs and obtain 50 cents' worth of poslam. Apply this, and if the itching stops at once and the trouble is cured in a few days it may be set down as having been eczema, as this is the way poslam acts in the worst cases of eczema, and in curing acne, herpes, blotches, tetter, piles, salt rheum,, rash, barber's and other forms of itch, scaly scalp, and all surface skin affections. Those who will write to the Emergency Laboratories, No. 32 West Vwenty- fifth Street, New York, can secure, by mail free of charge, a supply sufficat to cure a small eczema surface or clear a complexion overnight and remove pimples in twentyfour hours.

Amoung regular cannibals the most varied ' motives have been found. There are Indians who are said to eat their enemies by way of insult and Australians who consume their deceased parents as a mark of affection. Some tribes devour the dead enemy to abolish him utterly, others to assimilate his vitues. Africa has revealed cannibalism of every sort, from the most solemn religious rite to the most prosaic gratification of appetite and taste.
