Arranged.

The third annual fall race meeting
of the Rock Island Club is announced
to occur at the club house next Mon
day evening. Some of the most ia
nous strings on the circuits will be in
the running. and the indications are
that there Will be heavy bets placed.
The purses that have been hung up
aggregate 100000 Counterfeiters
are said to have been operating in
this locality in anticipation of this
event, and bettors will have to keep
a bankers eye lest they have phOney
greens showed on them.
The dope sheets give it out that
there Will be numerous surprises on
account of the latenesS of the season,
as many of the speeders that have
fast summer records have become
stiffened by the cold weather and will
be among the also rams. The bunch
is not to play favorites. but to scatter
your dough across the board, taking
a chance against the field.
Niger Lady (Abe Rosenfeld, jock
ey) was played strong during the
summer at Bishop Hill, and made
some money for her owners and the
wise ones, but the dopCIogists declare
she has taken on 50 much flesh since
the close of the warm season that she
could not now run around the block
without getting winded.
Julia g.. T. Stafford. jockey is be-
ing backed strong owing to the fine
record she made during the year on
the Indian Territory circuit. Her
mount says that while she was track
ing haystacks passed en- route looked
like sunnOwerS. Several others are
touted as good things, but the boys
that do the betting say they will not
cut loose on them until they see them
in the warm-up Monday night. Those
having horses entered, owners to ride
their own, are:
