Very Sad. _ Telegraph: A very sad story comes from Nevada City. It appears that a young woman at that place’felt so certain that Bryan would be elected that she wagered 1006 kieses with a young man gainst a box of gloves or the result. During the last six weeks she has been busily engaged nearlyevery evening in paying the-bet. A few days ago, however, a dispute arose over the count, and, in order that no mistake shall -be made, at the young woman’s suggestion. the score has been wiped out.and the count will be begun all over again. Nevada girls always are scrupulously honest in refusing to take advantage of an adversary. 7 More Houses.
