BEDFORD WEEKLY MAIL BEDFORD, INDIANA FRIDAY, NOV. 16, 1900 Elijah EVANS, a stone mason of Mitchell, and Mrs. Ed. EVANS of the same place, made a bet on the result of the National election. Mrs. EVANS won, and was given a ride in a wheelbarrow two squares on Main street in Mitchell. Mrs. EVANS says should she have lost the bet she would have paid willingly. The bet was paid Saturday night during the jollification, and created much merriment. Ed. EVANS, Mrs. EVANS' husband, runs a restaurant and is a loyal Republican. Elijah EVANS has been a Republican until this election, but for reasons not known he left the party and went with the Democrats.
