at Atlantic City.
From the Atlantic City Review,
A meeting Of the citizens committee wa.
held Saturday morning at Schauffier's Ho-
tel to arrange for the reception of the
Washington Light Infantry, which will ar
rive here this coming Saturday evening.
1t was resolved upon motion that the
Mehrer Rifle Company F, N. c., and the
Morris Guards be invited to escort the In
fantry from the depot to the camping
ground at the foot of Delaware avenue.
Chairman S. D. Hoffman and Treasurer
]. E. Mehrer, ex-offlcio and Messrs. Frank
Smith. Capt. Sanders. Carlton Godfrey and
Carl Voelker. who constitute the soliciting
committee, will call this week on members
of the citizens committee for their annual
dues. While payment of these dues is in
a way obligatory, the members should
rather consider it a pleasure to perform
such commendabls duty for the interests
OF the city.
1t is also requested by the committee that
all citizens who are provided with bunting
or red lights should display them on the line
Of march when the Infantry boys arrive in
town. This will be up Atlantic avenue from
the Pennsylvania depot, to Delaware and
down Delaware to the camping ground at
| the beach. A general display and hearty
welcome for the soldier laddies is desired
Another meeting of the citizens commit
tee will be held at Schaufilers Hotel Thurs
day afternoon at 4:30 p. m. to perfect ar
| rangements for the reception.

interested in the new management Mr..

whole story had probably arisen from a

asked a short time ago to become a men,

but the subject had been dropped for the
present owing to the financial condition Of
the country. 1t was the intention Of the
syndicate to purchase the track, but not
for racing purposes 1t would be cut up
into building lots. and streets run through
it.
This would be an unfortunate thing to one
Of the best liked tracks in America, but at
the same time the present generation of
race track managers is not of the same
class which was In control when Jerome

The trouble between the Philadelphia and
Boston base ball clubs over the division Of
the gate receipts came near resulting in a
serious split at Philadelphia yesterday.
Boston divided with Philadelphia in the
recent series in the former city on a 25-cent
admission basis. The Philadelphia manage

Of $500 that rightfully belonged to them.

from the Boston's share of the receipts in
the series now being played at Philadelphia:
Manager Selee of the BostOns threatened

Philadelphia managers. to offset this
threat, gave each OF the $3.50 persons who
entered the grounds rain check" good
