HOME WEEK BILL EOS BULL EIS ||Red Cross Day Will Wind Up a Busy Time at Island Park By "UMP" Home Week at Island Park started this afternoon. •'Pop" Foster and his Royal Bengal Tigers were the opening attraction. They will give a second performance to-morrow. Big things are also due during the balance of the week. On Wednesday, Reading will again try to put another crimp in Harris burg's winning stride. This will he Booster Day. It will be the beginning of a series of special days on which the local fans will have an opportun ity to help in a number of good projects. For Wednesday arrangements have been made to award prizes to players for special work. There will be two suits of clothes given away. Mer chants have contributed other valu able prizes and both Harrisburg and Reading players will have a chance to win.

Every boy and girl under 14 years of age will be admitted free to the grounds and grandstand and each youngster will be presented with a lolly pop. Women will also be admitted free to the game and grandstand on this day. It is prob able there will be some tin horns, a few cowbells and other things on hand to help along the rooting and boost ing.

' J Sunday Baseball For Atlajntic City Special to The Telegraph Atlantic City, N. J., Aug.24.—The success of the Sunday baseball game In Atlantic City yesterday between Reading, of the Trl-State League, and the Beach Combers in which the for mer won 3-2, probably means that the seashore will again be represented in the circuit next season. The pretzels have been running bad financially at home and the record-breaking crowd was a revelation. Atlantic City did noorly here In Tri- State last year, but when It considered that the Boardwalk buds fell so far in the rear that after the first six weeks it never got out of the cellar birth, better could hardly be expected. When the old-time "Red Roses" moved here from Lancaster the sum mer before last, much better results were obtained and Atlantic City looked like a good town for the league. Many contend that fandom here stand ! ready to support good ball and this feems readily substantiated by the crowds that attended the star attrac tions. Reading looks to be the likely change. Sunday contests determine the fu ture in this city. Approximately two thousand were in the stand to-day and this shows the public sentiment in re lation to Sabbath baseball. Atlantic City has taken a liberal turn for amusements, and this led the pro moters of the home club to chance to day's exhibition. No action was taken, and, in consequence, Sunday attrac tions will be staged throughout the year. The World's Champion Athle tics play in Atlantic City next Sunday. It is more than likely that crowds will be turned waay at this coming game. lOOTBALL OFFICIALS MAY UNDERGO EXAMINATION There was so much dissatisfaction with officials on the football field alst year that the intercollegiate rules com mittee is considering means by which officials may be trained. Every year the list of men who wish to officiate is swelled by the names of college gradu ates, many of whom were good play ers themselves but who have never shown tho slightest capacity as offi cials. The fact that a man was a good player Is no assurance that he will be a success as an official. The suggestion has been made, therefore, that the committee on offi cials have some method of examining candidates for positions and then fol low this up by watching their work in important games. Some of the leading officials think that there should be a method of preventing the blacklisting of competent officials by the big uni versities because some of their deci sions at critical moments may have been distasteful. READING CRIPPLED Reading, Pa., Aug. 24.—The local Trl-State team will finish with a deficit aggregating $2,000 according to a statement made by Business Manager Weitzel to-day. Since the beginning of the season the patronage has been exceeding discouraging, and even when the team was in first place and fighting for- the pennant the crowds were very small. Allentown's four de feats of the local club practically dis pelled whatever chance the Hoffman ites had to climb further up in the race, and the fans will be satisfied if they succeed in retaining their hold on third place.

After defeat ing Dundee—and Klibane is confident he can —the featherweight champion Intends to stay In California, he says, meeting all comers, until the sporting world Is ready to admit that he is a real champion. There is but little possibility that Dundee will defeat Kilbane on the 22d, for he has gained considerable weight since their last rneounter, which resulted In a draw. Dundee will have dijculty in making 122 pounds ringside. Three Teams Close in Central League Mlddletown lost to New Cumber land on Saturday, score 5 o 1. The cross river contingent put up a great battle. The leaders still have an ad vantage of three games.

IN THE LAST GENERAL WAR What Happened to Finance and Trade Is Interesting History Almost a century has passed since Europe was confronted with such scenes as have been brought about since the first of August. The war between France and England, which began in 1803, lasted something like twelve years and almost every govern ment of Europe eventually took part In it. Compared with now, those were days of small things, but at that time losses in trade and commerce in these war States aggregated billions of dol lars. The Telegraph is distributing a com plete map of the present war coun tries which consists of a wealth of in formation relating thereto. This map is being passed out to our readers at the mere expense of promotion, as explained in the war map coupon printed elsewhere in these columns. Clip the coupon to-day and present it as early as possible, as the supply is limited. Ouch! Corns!
