LEAsTtTE DAYS BEFORE THE
FIRST PRIMARY.

Final action in issuing a call for thu
first and second primaries tq-pominats'
candidates to be voted for in the cleo
ton of June 4, was taken last night
! by the City Democratic Executive
Committee, when it adopted the CALI
prepared and submitted by the sub
committee at the recent meeting.
Owing 10 the heavy rain two of the
members were absent from the COM
mittee meeting, and those answering.
the call were Chairman Jones, DR..
Warren E. Anderson and Secretary,
Ed. Gale Quina. After waiting fors
some time to see if other membersl
would appear the meeting was called
to order and the minutes of the pre-
vious meeting read and approved.
Candidates Heard.
Chairman Jones stated the object
of the meeting to be TO rurther COLI
slider the call for the first and second
white democratic primaries, and in
vited the candidates who were pres
fent to discuss the call If they had any
objections to its provisions.
A number of candidates spoke, their
,pTincipai objection being that it did
nc. provide for the opening of regis
traiion books before the primaries.
Some of them stated that there are a
large number of young men of the city
who could. qualify, having just become
of age and other parties are nov resi-
dents of the city who were not here TO
qualify when the registration books
of the county were open before the
general election.
Chairman Jones explained that the
committee had no power TO rectisy this
matter, owing to the fact that the cleo
ton law provided that the books shall
not be opened until sixty days before
the election of June 4, and that they
shall not close until about seven days
before that date The date for OPEN
ing of the books is therefore several
days after the first primary, and as
the committee had to be governed by
the law relating to the same, IL could
nc. make any provision that would al
low the. registration of parties who
were not qualified in the general elec-
ton.
The candidates all expressed them
selves as being satisfied with the pro-
visions of the call except as to the
qualifications of voters, and after the
explanation by Chairman Jones they
all seemed satisfied.
Adoption of Call.
With the exception of slight
which was offered by DR..
Anderson and adopted, the call was
as submitted at the first meet
ing. This amendment isSthat the can
didates can make application to have
their names placed upon the ballot
and pay the amount of the assessment
to Secretary Ed. Gale QUina, thus saw

demand; he always draws large audi
ences. and has made great deal Of
money lecturing but wherever he
speaks he creates sensation and a
controversy and sometimes n riot Is
threatened. He provokes the public
temper and often his audiences are
furious with him. The committees
always complain of him and every.
where he speaks there are public pro.
tests against his language and be.
havior.

at Kewanee. Ill.," said Mr.. Wagner,
supported by President Hewitt OF

pany employs 3,100 men and does a
great deal for their instruction and
entertainment. They have an auditn'
rum seating exactly that number OF
people. in which they have course

admission is free to employees Of the

WOMAN IS DEAD
From Swallowing Package OF Needles
over a Year Ago.

New York. Dec. 3O.-Mrs. Molly
Dressler OF 1905 Third avenue. who
tried to commit suicide 13 months ago
by swallowing a package containing
LA needles OF assorted sizes. died
today at Fordham hospital. During
all the time the needles had been cours s.

her untold agony. She had undergone
20 operations, by which her system had
been relieved OF 1874 OF the steel spin.
ters. The needles ranged in size from
an inch to three inches. The smaller
OF them were extracted by means OF
powerful magnets, as they came to the
surface OF the body, but the long bod
kins, which were confined to the very
largest of the blood ducts, deep in the
interior OF the woman's body. could
only be removed by surgical opera
tion after having been located through
the use OF X.rays. Some OF the ope.
ratlons extended over a period OF from
five to ten days. II has been a marvel
to physicians that Mrs. Dressler sur.
yived even the first half dozen prob
ings and that death ensued now. when
more than nine-tenths OF the needles
had been taken out. is supposed to be
due to the fact that the blood must
have carried one of them through her
heart. The case is OF great scientific
interest.

pay to hear him speak. The British
people did not take any interest In
