Registration Is Heavy.

Comparative figures compiled in
the office of the Registrar of Voters
with this year and the same date of
1902 show a remarkable increase in
the registry list. This is perhaps part
ly due to the fact that this is a Pres
idential year and also to the efforts
of Registrar Adams, who has sent no.
tees so far as possible to every voter
in the city calling attention to the
necessity of early registration. UP to
date the list shows a total registration
of 13,054 for this year, as against
2671 for 1902.

CLUB WOMEN
CAST THEIR
VOTES TO-DAY

To-day shapes the official destinies
Of the California Club for the ensuing
year. BY 2:3O o'clock to-day, madame,
your little slip of paper bearing the no
mencIature OF the prospective club Of
ffcers must be in the hands of the COM
mittee-else your precious vote will be
lost on desert air The error in the
club directorate was rectif1ed almost on
the eve of it's occurrence, when Mrs.
Xavier Rolker-whose name was mad
vertently omitted from the list-most
graciously withdrew, thereby saving
the necessity OF issuing new ballots.
This tactful courtesy was greatly ap-
preciated by the officers of election
and / strongly suspect will prove a po-
tent factor in the unanimous election
of Mrs. Rolker next year to position
of honor. 1t is commonly conceded
that among the candidates for direc-
tors the first four will run strong,
the remaining four coming from names
further down the list. But above and
beyond all in point of interest is the
contest for the presidency, with Mrs.
j. w. Orr and Mrs. Aylett Cotton run
ming close-and may the cleverest wo-
man win!
Stunning Miss McNutt has at last
announced her betrothal-and of
course, to the strongly suspected Lieu
tenant Fitzhugh Lee, U. S. A. Fresh
in the minds of the smart set Is the
visit of the charming Miss Ruth to the
Texas home of her sister, Mrs. Ashton
Potter, when she met the debonair
soldier-and their betrothal followed.
What else, pray, could have been ex-
pected in a detached army post when
a handsome, vivacious clever girl met
daily-hourly-an equally handsome,
vivacious and clever soldier! Isn't it
said that propinquity is the most po-
tent factor in matrimony? Mr.. Lee is
the possessor of a splendid record in
the service, and Is further distinguished
for having chosen General Fitzhugh
Lee for his father. The wedding date
has not been determined upon, as the
prospective groom is now in the Phil
ippines Miss McNutt is about to visit
the family of her fance In the South.
Mr.. and Mrs r. H. Pease and Miss
Maylita Pease left for New York last
night, going by way of Portland, Ore

position before returning. A large par
ty of friends was at the ferry to bid
them bon voyage. and loads of beauti-
full flowers were in evidence.
