Final Registration Day Brings
Out More Voters Than all
Other Days Combined
BUSY WEEK FOR CANDIDATES
Final Days of the Campaign are to be
Marked by Hard Personal IF
forts to Secure Full Vote
at Tuesdays Election

Candidates in the county were given
a decided surprise. on Tuesday by the
big rush of voters for registra ton,
and the registration reported from.tEe
different wards on Tuesday was SO
large that City Clerk Harrington this
morning declared that the registra-
ton would be in excess of 5000 votes
and that it was apparent that there
would be the usual vote polled at the
election on next Tuesday. Both
Democratic and Republican candi-
dates seem to be pleased with the
large registration of Tuesday, as
both parties had been doing personal
work to get the names on the regis
tration lists and both believe that they
have profited by the final rush. The
registration was light on Tuesday
morning, but in the afternoon and
evening it was exceedingly heavy and
a large proportion of the men regis
tering were men employed in the diff
ferent factories. There was, how
ever, small registration of foreign
ers, and in some of the wards where
the foreign vote has in the past been
controlling factor not single for
eigner was registered. The names
copied from the other lists include
many of these men. It is said that
this copying of the rolls will make it
possible for some people to be regis
tered in two wards. Names have been
found on the rolls showing that men
who previously voted in one ward had
removed to another, and close watch
will be kept to prevent any repeaters
being run In on election day.
The candidates started out this
morning for the final trips of the
day morning the voters will have no
rest. Big placards are being put out
calling attention to the candidates,
but the vast amount of the work is
personal work. Some of the cand7z
dates are making house to house
canvass in the county. The Demo-
cratic candidates are giving most of
their time to the country vote, as they
evidently believe that the city vote
will take care of itself. Welton and
Shields are making an exceedingly
hard fight out in the rural districts,
but their Republican opponents,
Waldo and Torrey, are also doing
work among the farmers.
One of the leading candidates on
the Republican ticket, when seen this
morning, stated that he had made a
tour of the county from Randall to
the end of Pleasant Prairie and he
could see no reason to believe that
single Democratic candidate would be
elected. He expressed the opinion
that the vote might be little smaller
this year, and for this reason the ma
jorities or p1uralities reduced, but
that he was of the opinion that all of
the Republican candidates would be
elected by safe majorities. The So
cial Democrats are hard at work in
the county, but it is thought that they
will poll most of their vote from the
city districts and that the rural vote
for them will be small. 1t is figured
that the vote on the minor tickets will
not exceed four hundred.

TRUNK is RECOVERED
Property Stolen From Lawrence
Schmitz is Found Under Bridge

ScnmItz IS Found Under Bridge
Chief of Police O'Hare has re-
covered the trunk belonging to Law
renee Schmitz which was stolen from
the Randall boarding house on North
Chicago street on Monday evening,
and it will be returned to Schmitz this
afternoon. The trunk was found by
school children hidden away under
the Middle street bridge. The papers
and pictures had been taken out of
the trunk and scattered along the
bank of the river near the bridge, and
it seems that the people who took it
were looking for money and were dis
appointed in not finding it. The
bank book, building and loan account
and all other papers in the trunk we're
found under the bridge and it is not
thought that a single thing was take
from the trunk. Chief O'Hare is busy
at work seeking to discover the
identity Of the man who carried the
trunk to the bridge, but thus far he
has found nothing.

STRUCK BY AN AUTO
Miss Mabel LevengOod Narrowly
Escapes Serious Injury on
tuesday Evening
FAILED to SEE TOURING CAR

Miss Mabel Levengood, young
woman employed at the Hotel Ke-
nosha, had narrow escape from be-
ing seriously injured just after six
O'Clock Tuesday evening, when she
was struck by an automobile. The
machine was being operated by Ed
ward Esch and the people who wit
messed the accident claim that it was
an unavoidable one. Fortunately
the young woman was not seriously
injured, but the accident caused
great excitement on Main street.
Esch was coming from the North
with the machine running at a speed
of about ten miles an hour and Miss
Levengood had been walking east on
Wisconsin street. Just as she stepped
off the curb at Main street the auto
mobile came by. The young woman
seemed not to see the car and Esch
hurriedly turned his car to the East,
throwing the front end of the car
about so that he would not hit the
girl. The young woman was greatly
frightened and started to jump to one
side.
AS Esch turned the car the back
end Of it flew about and struck the
young woman. Her left arm caught
IN the door of the car and she was
thrown to the street with some vio-
lence. In minute great crowd had
gathered about the corner aud the
girl was picked up and taken to the
Hotel Kenosha and Doctors Pugh and
Spaulding were called to attend her.
An examination showed that the
young woman was more scared than
hurt. Her hip had been badly bruised
by being thrown on the street and her
clothing was torn.
The witnesses who saw the accident
claim that Esch did everything in his
power to keep from striking the young
woman, but that she walked directly
toward the machine. Miss Levengood
stated that she was so frightened that
she did not know which way to turn.
She was able to be about her work
this morning. and it is evident that
she will have no permanent injuries
as result of the accident.

the Republicans were scattering, no
candidate receiving more than half a
dozen. The vote will be canvassed

The Pure Food Roll of Honor

Good Housekeeping, well
known household national magazine
voluntarily made a thorough examina-
ton and test of None-Such Mince
Meat, and placed it without reserva-
tion upon its roll of honor.
In the March number of Good
Housekeeping, in the department of
"Pure Food Assurance, we find:
s'None-Such Mince Meat, Merrill
Soule Co., Syracuse, a semi-moist
condensed compound of beef, apples,
spices, sugar, raisins, currants, boiled
cider, and salt, without other preserv-
atives or adulterants, no artificial
coloring, produced under conditions
as near to sanitary perfection as pos
sible.'
This guarantee, which could not be
bought at any price, ought to satisfy
the most particular housewife. The
sale of one million packages mouth
seems to prove the statement to be
true. Your grocer sells None-Such.
Try it, and satisfy yourself. You are
the one.
