EASTERN ATHLETES
WILL GET EXPENSES
A. A. U. Decides to Finance Trip
to 'Frisco in August; Trial
Events Next Week
New York. June 17.—A rearrange
ment of plans for the Junior and the
senior track and field championships
of the Amateur Athletic Union, to be
held in connection with the Exposi
tion in San Francisco on August 6
and 7, made necessary because of the
long distances that a majority of the
athletes will have-to travel, was de
cided upon here at a conference of
the Championship Committee of the
A. A. U. Originally the management
of the Exposition had planned to pro
vide for all expenses for the star
athletes, but a reckoning of the heavy
cost caused the A. A. U. to be ap
pealed to.
Frederick X. Rubien, secretary
! treasurer of the A. A. U. and chair
j man of its Championship Committee,
announces after an executive session
|of the committee that it had de-
I cided to come to the relief in defrav
ing expenses of the men. He said
; that the organization will send to the
Exposition about 25 men from the
I East. 25 from the Chicago section.
I and about five men from the Pacific
! Northwest and Intermountain Asso
j ciation. These men will be selected
| after the Eastern try-outs at Boston
on Juhe 26. when the regular events
j will be run off, and after the Middle
Western try-outs in Chicago on July
17, where the same number of events
also will be held.
For the swimming championships
the A. A. U. probably will transport
100 men to the Exposition, it was
announced. In the swimming events
: there will be about 12 men sent by the
A. A. U. New York and Chicago will
each contribute four men; St. Louis
one, and the remainder of the coun
try three or four.

PAXTANG PARK
Probably no vaudeville act that has
ever played Harrisburg has been the
cause of so much speculation and com
ment as The Rajahs, a Hindoo mystery
stunt, now playing the theater at
Paxtang Park. Madam Rajah sits on
the stage blindfolded while her partner
passes through the audience. All man
ner of articles in the possession of peo
ple in the audience are named and de
scribed on the stage without any appar
ent aid from the partner in the audi
torium. You may pick the name of a
musical selection from a list of 2,000,
printed on a card, point your selection
o«t to the man working in the audi
ence and the East Indian woman will
play It for you Immediately, although
she is blindfolded and no word is
spoken bv her partner. On Friday
evening the Rajahs promise an unusu
ally interesting demonstration of their
powers in mysticism. Madame Rajah
promises to give a satisfactory answer
to any question that any member of
her audience may put to her. If you
have lost any article, if you wish to lo
cate a missing person, if you doubt the
truth of any statement that has been
made to you. consult the Rajahs on
Friday evening and see the result.
Beginning next Monday King Kelly
will be at Paxtang for a week with hie
balloon. Kelly has become a standard
attraction at the park. He always gives
his auditors a few real thrillers when
he does his famous parachute Jump, and
the public never seems to get enough
of the Kelly brand of entertainment.—

derfully trained animal actors, will be
one or the features at the Colonial

"THE JUGCERNAI'T" TODAY AND
TOMORROW AT THE VICTORIA
Two young men —one the brilliant
son of poor parents—the other the dis
solute heir of a great railway king, be
come friends at college.
One thinks he has accidentally killed
a drunken rowdy In saving the other's
life—they two only know this secret.
Both fall In love with th.e same girl
—who marries the rich boy only after
his chum has withdrawn from the race
because of his poverty.
Years later one becomes president of
his father's old railroad—the other a
righteous, fearless district attorney.
Both again worship the same girl
daughter of the old sweetheart of both
—one with a father's deep affection; the
other because she Is her mother's
counterpart.
The district attorney bitterly attacks
the railroad in the courts. Mis former
chum threatens to expose him as a mur
derer.
And now—lmagine the girl on a train
approaching a bridge which cannot
possibly stand its weight. Both r.ien
know this. Both are rushing madly by
automobile and motor boat to intercept
it.
You see all this. See the grl's sweet
face at the window of the flying train
—feel the swaying of the automobile
as it skids desperately around sharp
turns —and the bounding of the motor
boat slashing through rough waters.
Both men and the train come crash
ing into the picture at the same Instant
—too late!
For a moment that seems an eter
nity, you feel yourself sitting alone al
most under the tottering trestle as the
enormous engine—a mass of whirling
steel—leaps thundering and qulver'ng
into the empty air and falls shrieking
to the swirling river.
The bog coaches crumple like card
board before your eyes and pile them
selves up on the wreck—their passen
gers floundering and struggling in the
debris.
Again you see the girl— Again 'her
father-
Again—THE MAN-
The car of Juggernaut rolls on.
But who are the victims?

Owed U. S. Twenty Cents
'Tor Bacon and Eggs"
Special to The Telegraph
Washington, June 17.—The Secre

I sum is inclosed "for bacon and eggs."
| Mr. Garrison could not recall the

i wheer the 20 cents was added to the

j that a retired soldier during his term
jof enlistment ate more than the law
allowed and that he now compensates
the Government for his meal.
I The conscience fund, which in
j reality has a separate existence only

CHAMPION WILLARD
OUT FOR SUFFRAGE
Believes Women Are Men's Equal?
Wife Votes in California;
Need Common Sense
Special to The Telegraph
Pittsburgh, June 17.—Jess Willard,
champion of the world, and the best
liked man who has ever held that
honor, because he is as clean and fine
morally as he is physically, is also a
champion of woman suffrage.
"Certainly I favor suffrage for wo
men," he said, when asked to-day
what he thought of the big question
now before the voters of Pennsyl
vania.
"1 believe that woman is man's
equal in mentality, at least. And if
a man is bright and wise enough to
know how to cast his ballot, why
shouldn't a woman be so?" The big
fellow asked the question in a man
ner that indicated there was only ona
answer.
"Out in California, where I liva
when at home," he continued, "wa
have woman suffrage. My wife ia
registered among that State's voters.
And there the women's vote has ac
complished much that was left un
done when only the men had a say
in making the laws.
"The question of women's votes ia
not, in my opinion, a serious problem.
I think the application of a little bit
of every-day common sense \voi|pi
leave no difficulty in the way ol
granting women the franchise."
