The first named was a widow and

the capital to start her in a boarding

had managed to make a living out of

put herself out to make upon him an
impression of admiration of his sue

for his financial cooperation, of her
love and devotion for him, the last

it is predicted that Mr. O'Lcary. who
is stormy petrol In politics, will poll
substantial vote, drawn chiefly from
Democrats. That the description
STORMY petrol" is a correct one in
MIR. O'Leary's case is shown by the
fact that only very few days after
his nomination as independent Demo
cratic candidate for Congress he en-
countered difficulty with the Central
Federation of Labor, some of the mem
bers of which declare that one of his
early meetings was to be held at the
hall which is on what is called the
unfair list" When this matter was
submitted to the candidate he under
took the task of having the hall
"unionized," but, failing in this, re-
moved his campaign headquarters to a
union hall, from which it is now being
conducted.
This preliminary skirmish marked
the beginning of campaign likely
to be interesting in it's sensational fea-
lures. The manager of the OTeary
campaign is member of the Beverage
Dispensers Union, but there is no
assurance that the beverages dispensed
by convivial partisans of the O'Leary
faction will be such as to contravene
the provisions of the Volstead law.
Irish moss is expected to be among
them. The name of the Republican
candidate in the district is Henry J.
O'Connor.
Kissers Chances Considered Good
The Sd Congressional District, which
is in Brooklyn and is now represented
by John MacCrate, is the third district
regarded as probably uncertain this
year. but in which the Republican
chance of election for John Kissel is
regarded as best. This district, which
includes Greenpont and which has
among its other boundaries Newtown
Creek, the East River and the Queens
County line, has somewhat peculiar
history. In the Presidential election
OF four years ago the Democratic can
didate, Mr.. Flynn, had II 500 votes to
10000 for his Republican competitor.
Mr Chambers. In 1913 Mr.. Mac Crate.
whose campaign interests have always
been promoted by one of the most
skilled Brooklyn political leaders. en-
tered both the Republican and Demo-
cratic primaries and had the good for
tune to have two competitors in the
Democratic primaries, who so divided
the vote that Mr.. MacCrate, a Repub
l!can, secured the Democratic nomina-
ton as we'll as the Republican. He ran,
'HeiIloie, on botn tickets, but was op-
posed by a Democratic organization
candldate ca named Fogarty, who was
"backed' by the organization and bv
the Socialist nominee. Mr. MacCratc
won and he is now candidate for Su-
pfeme Court judge on the Republican
ticket.
The Democrats are united on another
candldate, and the prediction is made
that II there is sufficient Republican
sweep on November this Congress
sional district will be carried into the
Republican column. There is con-
slderab PIE Italian vote in the Greenpoint
and Williamsburg sections of this dis
ttrct, and further east, in what is
known as the Bushwick section, there
is very considerable Gcrman-Amerj-
can vote, Normally, the district is

statesman aside and in primer fashion
make plain what really ought to be
obvious" concerning the League OF
Nations. Returning from a speechmak-
ing tour in Kentucky, Mr.. Roosevelt
issued this statement at Oyster Bay:

X.
"Mr. Cox evidently bases his position
on President Wilson's statement that
an obligation to obey the mandate of
the league would be a moral obligation.
not a legal obligation.
This is precisely the attitude
would expect MIR. Cox to take. We
Republicans maintain that moral
obligation is as binding as q legal
obligation.

to elect man like Mr.. Cox their
chief executive who brazenly, in effect.
does not consider his word to be as
good as his bond ?"

Big Republican Gains
Koenig Sees Sure Victory,
as Party Increase Is
5000 to a Distric t

The citizens of New York smashcd
all previous records during the week
of registration just ended, when
1,367,S35 men and women qualified to
vote in the five boroughs. This was
an increase of 288,4O9 over last wears
registration, which at the time set a
new, mark.
The heaviest gains were in Republi
can districts. There the average in
crease in an assembly district was
5000, while in Democratic strongholds
the average gain was only about 1000.
Commenting on this, Samuel S. Koenig,
chairman of the New York County Re-
publican Committee, said;
"The figures tell their own stories.
1t means that the Republicans came
out solidls,. Men who haven't regis
tered in years came out to vote the
Republican ticket in it's entirety. Wom-
en- in Republican districts registered
IN greater numbers than ever before.

registration places that they would

Sees Certain Victory
He declared that the figures were as
certain an indication that the Rcpub-
leans would carry greater New York
this year as last years heavy registra-
ton was of the 1919 Tammany rout.
Last years registration of LOTS, 800
when reduced to vote on Election
Day was 961,437. This was shrink

ing or. If this proportion is main
New York on November will be 1915
S4l, representing an estimated decreas 2
of lat 1894 from the number of those
who have qualified to vote
One OF the surprises of the registra-
tion was that Brooklyn, which last wear
led, for the first time, all the boroughs
in the number of qualified voters, fell
back again to second place, Manhattan n
regaining the lead with 5O3,257. This
was gain of 1866 over last wear
Brooklyn had 2O,528 more qualified
voters than Manhattan last year. This
year, however, she lags 1928 behind
Manhattan. Brooklyn, however, gained
82,2o5 qualified voters during the
week; Yet it was proportionately the
smallest gain in all five boroughs, rep
resenting only 20 per cent increase.
The Borough of Queens had the larg-
est proportionate increase, her 145,S 1864
registrants being gain Of 5,4O4 over
last year, which is more than 80 per
cent above last years figures.
The Bronx, where 198,744 registered
this year, was q close second to Queens
Last year the Bronx registered $50 ,636
and the gain of 48,103 represents close
to 32 per cent increase.
Richmond had a gain of more than
"a per cent in qualified voters, and
Mani attan's increase Of 1866 was
slightly in excess Of 80 per cent.

NeW Comedies e.\
Feature -Four
Leading Women

-Four leading ladies in a single pro-
duction is a decided novelty either
on the stage or in motion pictures,
but Eddie Lyons and Lee Moran,
who have already scored many hits
in their comedies produced by Uni
versal, have selected a quartet of
leading ladies for their new feature,
Fixed by George" which, it is said,
is one, of the most attractive and
talented feminine combinations ever
conceived.
Lyons and Moran have proven
their ability to discern the wants of
the public, and one thing
of which they are certain is
that beautiful women are most de-
cidedly enjoyed. Therefore they
have selected young women for their
casts who can act and who are easy
on the eyes.
Their leading ladies for Fixed by
George" are Beatrice la Plante,
Hazel Howell, Maude Wayne and
Daisy Robinson. Beatrice la Plante,
the little French comediennf, is not
only a finished comedian 'but her
charm and vivacity have made for,
her recent screen successes with
Clara Kimball Young, Sessue Haya-
kawa, Madelaire Traverse and Will
liam Bermond. Hazel Howell is a
Broadway stage beauty who has
been on the stage less than a year,
but who has already scored hits with
Mildred Harris Chaplin, Bryant
Washburn and Charles Ray.
Maude Wayne started out as
member of Mack Sennet's comedy
company and has lately played i'm
portant roles in several Lasky pro-
ductions. Daisy Robinson, although
her career began on the stage, has
been in pictures for several years
and recently won high praise for ex-
cellent work in support of Douglas
Fairbanks in when the Clouds Roll
By"
