COMMITTEE NAMED FOB MADISON CO. IN COMING QUESTION. Non-PHrdMB Alignment to Further of Big Bond Issue. Alvin C.

C. R. Miller, director of the department of public works and buildings at Springfield. Mr. Bohm Master in Chancery of Madison county and one of tho successful young lawyers of the county seat.

Associated with him in this work will be Hugh F.

Willl of St. Jacob, former chairman of tbe County Board; A. 0. Gowen, mayor of Colllnsville; and W. E.

Howden of Edwardsville, County Superintendent of Highways. The' necessity for much work in behalf of the bond issue is based largely upon the circumstances that those who do not vote at all on the subject are helping to defeat It just as assuredly as those who may cast an adverse vote. It is therefore necessary to secure a sufficient number of favoring votes. The committee named expects to do a great deal of educational work dur ing the four weeks remaining be tween now and the general election at which this proposition wll! be voted upon. It will.be noted that the commit tee is made up of prominent repnb llcans and prominent democrats, the idea being that politics does not enter into the highway necessities CANNING SEASON SAW MUCH CORN PUT AWAY Hoopeston, Oct.

Wall street odds were placed at 2 to 1, with the Giants heavily backed to win. Within an hour after the game yesterday Giant backers poured their money Into the market, and the odds of 9 to 5, at which the market had opened, quickly switched to 2 to 1. Washington, however, is favored to win today's contest, and $11,000 to was placed with W.

L. Darnell last night on this eventuaJHy. Darnell also has more money at these same odds to place in the event Walter Johnson pitches tomorrow.
