BALTIMORE, September 9.-Be-
cause of the complexity Of the Sec
ond-choice provisions Of the primary
election law, which may be invoked
in the three democratic SEN
atorial fight, election officials and
party workers are having great diff
Guilty in understanding what mus -
done under the law. Numerous In
quiries have been received by the
state officials.
The underlying principle of the law
Is that a choice must be made by a
majority instead Of plurality. That
rule applies equally in determining
the choice of political unit-that Is
q county or legislative district
and in determining the final result oil
the choice of all the units.
In any given county-Say, Somerse,
following the election. the offlcia
must determine the first choice OF
majority of those who voted in the
democratic primary, and then the sec.
delegates from the county to the state
convention.
Automatic Instructions.
II there are 5000 votes cast and
Candidate A gets 1000, Candidate E
gets 1900 and Candidate c 500, there
is no question that the delegation
from the county is instructed to vote
for Candidate A as the first choice
He will have clear majority. There
will remain the matter of determin-
ing the county's second choice.
That will be done in this way: Can
didate A, the high man. will! be elimi-
mated Under the law those who
voted for Candidate A for the first
choice should vote for Candidate E
or Candidate C for second choice.
Suppose that'of the 5000 who voted
FOR Candidate A, 1900 favored Candi-
date B for second choice and l.5o9 "a; IA;
yored Candidate c. In that case 1.5O(
votes would be added to the first

 The proscenium arch, by it's great span and graceful decorative appeal sets the pace of the entire theatre. It is big, inspiring, soothing to the eye and of tremendous beauty.
 Stage and Dressing-Rooms
 The great picture screen is of gold fibre, with a foundation of imported Irish linen cloth. There are 33 dress ing-rooms, each fre-proof and per fectly equipped. Sixty drops can be hung from the sets of lines that fly the scenery, and the stage has been splendidly equipped with settings and furnishings to meet the demands of the most elaborate productions. It is one of the policies of the theatre to give complete stage setting to musical and dance novelties. Orchestra members have their lock CTS, and there is a big room holding the music library.

The Adams Period in decorative art has been largely employed in
 Polls Palace Theatre, to open Sep

 not been expressed to the exclusion ot
 any other, the soft greys, gold, ivory and black, and the graceful scrolls
 and delicate inconsequences of the
 type of design easily predominate in this newest theatre.
 The William Echart Studio at 1416 Broadway, New York, did the decora . tive work on the Palace. It is at once pleasant to the eye, restful, ana possessing a dignity in its beauty that is infinitely in good taste. It never
