A prominent business man made the
statement today that one hard problem
TO solve in connection with the sug-
gested erection Of a new high school
building was the disposition of the
present structure which stands in the
middle of the site owned by the school
district and which at present is the
Favored one for the proposed new
building. AT least it will take a year
to construct a new building and if the
present structure is to be RACED, what
must be done to take care of the grade
pupils and high school departments
during the progress Of building? The
p. D. M suggests that some OF the
very resourceful friends of the city
schools might display their genius in
this important quandary. Unless other
wise instructed by the voters of the
city, the board of education will pro-
coed to spend about $4,000 provided
Tor by special levy, in making changes
and improvements on the present
building which must be made during
the coming year and which are con-
sidered imperative to meet the de-
mands which the board of education
VIII be up against next year.

Chicago, Dec. 2s.-Fire was put un-
der December corn and shorts had
bad day. The spirit of their dreams
was disturbed by the discovery that
the market was over-sold and that
there was a concentrated long interest
with money enough to pay for all the
cash corn that Is likely to be delivered
this month. Buying was scattered.
Darrell taking 250.OO0 bushels which
was the largest commission house pur-
chase to cover shorts. Most OF the
trading, however. was in small lots,
and so scattered that it showed good
sized open interest, which was largely
reduced by the end OF the day. The
largest individual selling was 100000
bushels by Lamson, said to be long
stuff. and they were also buying on
the quiet. 1t develops that there is
considerable long December held for
New York, as well as good holdings
for other traders who have been in
the market for some time.

horses show marked intelligence and
ready to adapt themselves to the re-
quired discipline. The team, pair of

HARMON Will BE
AT The ORPHEUM
GOVERNOR or OHIO WILL DELIv-
ER BIG SPEECH TO NORTH
WESTERN DEMOCRATS AT Or
PHEUM THEATRE ON EVENING
OF JAN. II.

Announcement was made today by
State Chairman Macarthur that the
big meeting of the northwestern DEM
ocrats will be held at the Orpheum
theatre on the evening OF wednesday
Jan. IL. when Gov. Judson Harmon OF
Ohio, democratic presidential POSSIBLE
ity next year. will speak to the sons of
the democracy of the northwest at
their big love feast.
For some time the committee on ar
rangements had some difficulty in Sc
curing a place In which to hold the
Harmon meetings. as so many things
are to be going on in the city at the
same time, that all the available audi
forums and halls will be in use. At
last Mgr. George III. Webster of the
Orpheum came to the rescue and made
it possible for the democrats to have
roof to cover their heads for the
coming gathering.
The big democratic banquet will be
held the same evening at Prizes hall,
at which covers will be laid for a
number of prominent members of the
party, including the buckeye govern
or, William Jennings Bryan, who will
attend if he is in the country at that
time, several governors of northwest
ern states, and Mayor Carter H. Har-
rison of Chicago.
The present general understanding
is that Governor Harmon and party,
which will probably include Lieut..
Gov. H. L. Nichols of Ohio, his cam
paign manager, who was here in Sep
TENDER, will arrive from the east early
in the morning, 1t is expected he will
speak to the delegates attending the
Tri-state convention during the after
noon, attend the banquet in the even
ing and will deliver his address at the
Orpheum later, probably getting
through in time to take the train back
to Chicago that night.

Seeks Legal Separation.

Attorney n. A. Hembroff of Indiana
Harhor has filed a divorce case in
which Edna Gilmore seeks legal
separation from her husband, George
Ray Gilmore of Indiana Harbor
The couple were married June 25,
1907 and were separated Jan. %, 1911.
Desertion, non support. habitual cruel
ty and brutality are charged in the
complaint as reasons for securing the
divorce.
The principal trouble, however,
seems to have been over religion The
plaintiff alleges that the defendant re-
fused to permit his child to receive
the saci.aments or rites of the church.
and is alleged to have threatened his
wife with bodily harm if she herself
participated in the rites and cers-
monies of her religion. They have two
children. George and Elizabeth, and
she asks for their custody. Gilmore
is said to be a structural iron worker
and is earning $3.50 a day.
