TAMMANY CANDIDATES TOLD.
william Temple Emmett Is Asha med OF the
state League Fusionists

The candidates on the Democratic
county ticket were formally notified
yesterday at the Knickerbocker Hotel
of their nominations. IL was not a large
gathering less than fifty being prese mt.
Among the number were three distric
leaders. two Assemblymen and two Con-
gressmen. The district leaders were J ..
+. Prendergast of the Twenty fifth dis
trict. Thomas +. McAvoy Of the Twenty
third and John c. Fitzgerald OF the Third,
while the others we're Assemblymen
Foley and Smith and Congressman Sulzer
and Goldfogle.
William Temple Emmett. who was until
recently one Of the leaders OF the Demo-
cratic League. made the notifying
speech. He said that there was never a
moment when there was less excuse than
at present for factionalism in the Demo-
cratic party. Referring to the action
OF the fusionists in refusing TO indorse the
nominations OF Justices Cohalan and
Pendleton, he said:
We are Witnessing the disEraceful spec
tacle of a partisan and factional attack
being made on those men. for no other
| reason than that the perpetrators of this
outrage think that by accomplishing the
better themselves in a factional fight which
they have undertaken within the Demo-
| cratic party here.
Was there ever such a preposterous
situation presented TO an intelligent cleo
torate to be asked to vote against tried
and true Judges. into the question Of whose
nomination no factional or partisan con-
sideratlon entered at all. simply to help a
few men engaged in 4 faotionGl enterprise.

word. Even IL some of our independent
friends don't like everything that was
done at Albany last winter they are. in my

| our party is entitled to communication
| rather than condemnation for the record
made at Albany last wear And am certain
that next winter if we control the Iegis-

All the candidates with the exception
! OF Justice Scott were present and they
made brief speeches accepting the nomina-
| tion. Justice Scott wrote a letter.

increase Is in items outside OF the expenses

budget and tax levy Last year we had to
put a similar amount of such arrears in our
budget Next year what remains of il will
go into our budget and all OF IL will thus

Everywoman's Corset Shop.

The women readers of "The Palisa-
dian" will be interested in the an
nouncements of Everywoman's Corset
Shop in New York City Through
the merit of large financial backing,
this new establishment has been set
UP for the benefit of all women who
desire to be properly and comfortably
fitted with corsets without the neces-
sity of going to a regular corsetier
and paying exhorbitant rates. Every
woman's Corset Shop agrees to do
for its patrons with the moderate
priced corsets exactly what the max
ers of high-priced corsets do with
heavy charge In other words, any
woman may have her own selection
of corset fitted practically while she
waits, and pay for fitting and altera-
tions no more than the same make
would cost over the department store
counter. 1t will, no doubt, prove a
great boon to ladies who have diff
fculties in getting just what they
want at the regular stores

LEAGUE AND CLUB
Many Honors Are Falling To Big
George, the Bearcat Of the
Tiger Twirlers.

Honors are falling fast on the head
Of G. Mullin, Tiger pitcher. George is
going after the statistics with a ven
geance this season. Both In the box
and at bat he is setting records which
must cause the thrills of envy to
glide rapidly up and down the spines
of all other handlers of the sphere.
When one looks at the pitching
tables. 10 there is the name of Mullin
leading on. George has won three
games and lost none, which Is better
than the best performance OF any
other American league twirler.
In batting George has also set a
commanding record. He has been
technically at bat nine times In his
three games, and has made Ave hits,
of which two were doubles, this Civ.
ing him grand average of .555 which
Is high for the American league. Craw-
ford is second at .42S, Cobb third al
1896. and Jones fourth at 1852 Other
Tigers are batting as follows: Willet
and Lively, 1893; Stanage, 269; Gain.
or, .259; LATTE. $50; Delahanty, 191;
Moriarty, 17S; Lathers, 166; Bush
l15; Works, 900.
In batting, fielding, extra-base hit
ting and run-getting, the Tigers oc.
cupy similar positions In regard TO the
league race as that of games won and
lost.
