LITTLE CALUMET RIVER SUBSIDING The Little Calumet river which went on its second rampaffe of the season several weeks ago. is gradually receding and with two more weeks of dry weather, the vast spread of water will probably be within the river's banks.

It was estimated that at least twelve delegates prefer Governor Lowden to any other candidate. Pour or five are said to be for Senafor Harding as first choice. Gen.
