fereut purmmeH are finding their way
In modified forma 011 some of the hand
aotuest costumes of the season.
Buttons by the hundred, generally
tiny ones of metal, studded with col
ored stones, ornament frocks and
wraps.
Gray beavy luce Is modish ou gowus
of this shade. A French model In chif
fon cloth has Its long skirt striped with
two Inch gray satin ribbon. The bodice
la a mass of heavy gray lace exactly
matching the material, applied In a
bolero wltb stole ends. About the neck
la an emplecement of white luce. The
sleeves are tiny puffed affairs formed
of the gray lace and small ruffles of
val.
Shoulder collars of luce are not as
doep as they were. The newest am
run with traceries of gold thread out
lining the design. It Is an ensy mat
tor to buy gold thread and use It upon
auch deep collars.
The toque In the cut Is of dark sevres
blue straw. A band of velvet toulng
with the straw trims the crown. A
short green feather' mount and cuou
of tulle ornament the brim.
THE DAINTY MOUCHpiR.
The newest fad for drey handker
chiefs In au all embroidery or all lace
doeorotlon. A pretty handkerchief Is
edged with lace and has several rows
of Insertion at equal intervals from the
lace ruffle.
In the colored twrdorcd handkerchiefs
there are numerous designs. The smart
est are ornamented by several Hues of
graduated widths In the same color as
the border. 8otue of these handker
chiefs, besides having colored borders,
re covered with dots of n like shade.
Little coats on "jwny" lines ore espe
cially good with the trotting costume
that aspires to being a trifle "sporty."
SIAl'VB CRAPE TKA GOWN.
These coats do not confine themselves
to plain tailored lines. They aro strap
ped a llttlo at the buck and hare under
arm scums slushed here uiul there.
Vests are ofteu added. The sleeves are
abbreviated to Just below tho elbow.
Whoever prophosled the passlngof the
short walking skirt certainly made a
big mistake. Short skirts are fur too
comfortable to be given up by women
who know thut tho whole style and
beauty of a costume depend upon fit
ness. A chawin bat for a small girl Is
lata broom sua pea straw m pale green,
resembling woven rushes. Bundles of
Alice blue ragged robins are tied to th
bat with narrow black velvet ribbon.
The tea gown seen In the cut Is an
empire creation carried out In mauve

REPUBLICAN STAFF
Leading Nominees for County
Offices to Date.
FIVE PRECINCTS UNCOUNTED
Clifton No. a, Chadwell, Clatsop, Push
and Knappa Not KnownUnlike
ly Disturb Present Lead De
termined Tomorrow.
Willi twenty three precincts out of
the twenty -eight in tho county, re
ported fully on the Republican nomi
nee for the offices of Clatsop, and the
flvi not yet acertained being of a
numerical strength hardly eulTlcient to
materialy alter the leads indicated, it
I safe to assume that the following
gentlemen will be the standard-bearers
fop the dominant party in the coming
content:
V. T. Schoflehl, for State senator.
Amus Brlx, for representative.
Tuba C. McCue, (or representative.
.1. A. Kukin, for county judge.
C C. Mater, for county commission
er. Merritt R, Pomeroy, for sheriff.
J. C. Clinton, foe county cluik.
William A. Sherman, for county
treasurer.
It, C F. Astbury, for surveyor.
Charle E. Linton, for coroner.
The five precincts to be counted are:
Clifton No. 2, Chadwell, Clatsop, Knap
pa and Pm-h. The boxes and formal
returns fro mall hut the Push precinct
are in possession of the county clerk,
but ho cannot, under the law, broach,
the rulmlar returns for the purpose of
a canvass, until the In-t precinct in
the comity shall have been duly filed
with him; hence, allowing that Piifb
will report today, or in the morning at
farthest, tho clerk, with the Justices
prescribed in the law, may proceed to
open up the boxes and make definite'
and Ann! count of their contents. If
possible this will be done the first
thing tomorrow, and the Morning As
toria n will furnish its readers with an
exact and complete table of the status
of every man on the Republican ticket
in the state and county.
The differences existing, and liable to
be affected by the votes yet uncounted
are as follows, between the leading
candidates for the respective offices:
Between Messrs. ScholnVld and Welch,
164; Brix and Ingalls. 312; McCue and
CurtU 101; Kakin and Carnahnn, 38;
Mnsten, without opposition; Pomeroy
and Frye, 31; Clinton, without opposi
tion; Sherman and Hcilborn, 27 Ast
bury, without opposition; Linton, with
out opposition.
Thl is the present status of the
line-up and the best informed men in
the purty councils are not disposed to
believe the unaccounted vote will dis
turb the alignment here suggested.
Latest cens.11 reports give the
British Empire approximately 400,000,
000 people, only 54,000.000 of whom are
white. It doesn't look n if the ma
jority ruled in this case.
i IT 13 FOR LADIES, TOO.

Ladles who have thin hair and whose
hair is falling out, can prevent the hair
falling out, and thicken the growth, with

ICopyrlfht, im, by McOIurs, Phillips & Co.)
ONE point of difference between
the Kicker and most other
publications, particularly the
eastern dallies, Is that they
lie about their circulation all the time,
while we He only at Intervals and when
other news Is scarce. They lie to de

lie for the fun of the thing and don't
expect to make a cent. Incidents and
accidents being scarce this week and It
being about time for a fresh whopper,
we proceed as follows:
Our circulation books are open to all.
This means that no outsider can tell by
our book whether w have ten hun

The white paper used for every Issue
of the Kicker keeps Ave of the largest
paper mills In the country busy from

Mississippi river.
We employ eleven bookkeepers and
twenty-two assistants. We employ six
cashiers and nine men at the advertis
