ALL REGISTRATION
RECORDS BROKEN
Voters to the Number of 5000
Enroll for Primary
Election
Appearance of Many Union La
Dor Men a Development of
Closing Days

All registration records for primary
elections in this city were broken
when the rolls were closed at mid
night yesterday. When Implications
are weeded out the total number of
voters qualified to take part in the
primary will approach the remark
able figure of $4,000.
Yesterday was the busiest day the
registrar has had since the registra-
ton began. nearly 1000 men making
affidavits between $3.50 in the morn
ing and midnight.
In the early hours of the evening
the rush was greatest, the would be
primary voters coming in carry-alls,
buses, automobiles and all sorts of
conveyances They entered the office
in the basement of the city hall in
droves, but were quickly disposed of,
as a large force of clerks was on hand
to register them.
One significant development of the
closing days of registration was the
heavy enrolment of union labor men.
Some of the leaders of the party had
been active during the last two months
endeavoring to have union men register
under their party designation, but ii
was only in the last few days that their
efforts met with particular success.
Indications are that the registration
is in the ratio of three to two in favor
of the republican party. Three per
cent of those who registered refused to
state their party affiliations and will
be unable to vote at the primary.
In 1902 registration for the primaries
totaled 51,726 and the primary vote
was 2S,697. In 1904 the primary regis
tration was 50.70S and the primary
vote was 1914. Figures for 1906 are
not available.
With a registration this year of nearly
$4,000 all records are broken and it is
probable that the vote at the primary
will exceed even the record vote cast at
the so called Strattnn urinary in 1900

JURY FOUND SECRET REBATES

WASHINGTON, July 22.-The deci-
sion handed down today by the United
States court of appeals was on the ap-
peal Of the Standard oil company of
Indiana from the verdict rendered
April Is. 1907. by which the company
was found guilty of accepting rebates
and was later fined by Judge Landis of
the United States district court $29,240,-
coo, the maximum under the counts of
the Indictment. The specific charge
against the company was that 1t had
accepted rebates on shipments of oil
in carload lots from Whiting, Ind, to
East st. Louis, ILL.,, over the Chicago
and Alton railroad. Evidence was ad-
duced at the trial showing that the
company received rates one-third as
large as other shippers wer- obliged %
pay. 1t was contended by the counsel
for the oil company that the rate was
not secret, but the jury found other
wise.

that the dividends might not look so

HOW TO PROPERLY
WEAR YOUR LINGERIE,

The DAY when women delighted In
any amount of lingerie, and the volun-
nous raiment which it helped to fiji
out. is past. She no longer slaves with
her needle or passes long hours in the
shops selecting i~nnumerable dainty
which she piles upon her
anatomy
No, her raiment must cling. Her
anatomy must not be lost in a super
fluffy of garments, however fine her
lines.
She must have her lines.
Her silhouette must stand out slender
and delicate, even striking.
Her fine cloth, or finer velvet, crepe
de chine, or chiffon wolfe, or lace, must
cling in a way to put the average
brother to the blush. 1t droops affec-
tionately about the shoulders, it clings
tenaciously to the fashionably raised
waist line aud continues in this fashion
to the thighs, where, forgetting the
erstwhile devotion, it begins to take an
interest i'll foreign matters, and flares
inquisitively, whether it be short. MAX
ing excursions with boreas as an escort.
or long, flirting in ~serpentines with the
figures in the carpet.
Fine silken elastic weaves are much
in favor for this type of underwear,
though many will cling to the cob
webby linen garments which our grand
mothers used to love to have fine
enough to draw through the %proverbial
wedding ring.
In order to economize space these
novelties are combination affairs which
do away with all super1uous bulk. Most
of them bring the required number of
undergarments down to two, one waist
band serving.
Princess boomers are one of the fads
for street wear. They are made in mo-
hair, silk and satin, AM they will fit
like the skin about h hips.
To return to the lingerie, n must
not suppose that frills and embroidery
are eliminated. oh, no; the frills are
as fluffy as ever, and the embroidery
is. as always, exquisite. But the frills
are only tolerated at such places as in
no wise interfere with madame's all
important lines.

I have some hard white spots on
both cheek bones. A few became large

The pimples you describe are flesh
worms and usually appear in groups
about the cheeks, chin and nose, and
are due to distractions in the pores,
which unable to rid themselves of their
contents, become distended and harden,
forming hard white pimples under the
skin. Scrub the face with a fine
cameTs hair face brush, using hot
water and a good CASTLE soap. After
a healthy circulation has been pro-
cured by the scrubbing process each
of the pimples may be opened with the
point of a fine cambria needle that has
Deer sterilized in boiling water. The
hardened worms must be pressed out,
and the gland bathed with toilet vine
gar and water or a weak solution of
carbolic acid and water. Massage the
face with a good cold cream, and keep
it free from dus n dirt.

EUffb the Needle and Thread.

A neat walking costume of a soft tan
and white material was made with the
skirt plain and somewhat narrow
topped with a coat, the stripes of which
were laid on the bias, making some
thing striking in appearance, yet,
withal, extremely stylish. The coat
was belted with q handsome tan belt,
placed rather high at the back, slightly
sloping at the front. The tan coat was
pointed at the front and back, said
points reaching to the knee line.
Such a style is we'll adapted to the
tall, slim figure.
There are a great many women who
take pleasure in em~broidering their w
linen collars IN fancy designs. Much
time and thought is spent upon the
patterns. But many dislike the tedious
mounting of these collars on bands,
which are hard to shape so as to fit the
neck correctly. To avoid this. try maxi
ing the linen upon which the collar is
embroidered with enough to turn under
about half an inch. Get a piece of stiff
white betting the width of the collar
and long enough to fasten securely
around the neck.
Basic to this the ribbon, pin to shirt
waist, back and front, arrange bow or
tie and your neck arrangement is COM
plete.
When placing the band OF a gathered
skirt hold the gathers toward you. as
they can be more evenly arranged in
this way.
With the f%orerunners of the warm

exquisite feeling of comfort as a crisp,
