League Will
Be Permanent
Organization.
BEGIN SUNDAY

Tonight the second meeting of
promoters of the new City Baseball
League will be held at the EVEN
ING NEWS office, starting at 8
o'clock. The representatives on
hand at the first preliminary meet
ing last week, together with several
others will be present tonight. A
permanent organization Is to be
formed and arrangements are to be
made for the opening games, which
will probably be played next Sunday.
There are a number of topics which
will be threshed out, such as the
hiring of players, splitting of gate
receipts and Expenditures, adoption
of rules and regulations, etc.
The project can meet with nothing
but success, for everybody, fans and
players alike, have taken up the
idea with interest. They are glad
that the city Is to secure some real
baseball. Contests in which the best
material of the community will par
ticipate. The battle for city cham
pfonship honors and the EVENING
NEWS pennant is to be a spectacu-
lar one. Existing rivalry between
most IL the clubs entered should tend
to make the games all the more in
teresting. One team claims it Is su-
perior over the other, and vice
versa; so that the best way to deter
mine the leaders Is to play a league
series as this one.

CAUGHT TODAY

and it was not long before the entire
catch was sold.
Twenty-eight weakish is quite a
lot to catch ON one tide, but George
Maier did that Saturday afternoon
from one of Mrs. Gross's rowboats at
Keyport. The fishing grounds at
Keyport are but q few Minutes row
from the boathcuse, and the grounds
are ideal to fish on, as they are In
tho cove and fully protected from
sudden storms.
About sixty barrels of weakfish
and bfuefish were shipped to New
York yesterday morning from the
seines that are drawn along the Jer-
sey shore of Raritan bay. The net
men receive one and a half cents a
pound for the weakfish and two
cents a pound for the bluehsh, out
of which they have to pay for the
ice, barrel and labor of gathering In
the fish. These fish are sent TO New
York and some of them are sent
back here and retailed at sixteen
and eighteen cents a pound. The
railroad, commission man. Wholesale
dealer and the retail dealer get a
profit out of the fish, which the con-
sumer pays.

What more could fans expect for
the price of admission charged than
two such games as were witnessed

The Franklin-St. Anthony game was
one of excellence. The youngsters

performance as a whole.

ALMANAC FOR THE WEEK.
TIME OF HIGH t
A Fiaura Trick.

Get some one to put down a row Of
figures, to add them up and subtract
the total, thus:
63,214
These figures added together make
10. Subtract this 16 from the original
number and you get 63.19e.
Now ask them to cross out any one
figure, total them up again and tell
you the total. Thus, say, they cross
out the O., the total becomes 81. They
tell you this, and without looking at
the sum you can say the value Of the
figure which has been crossed out.
You do this trick by ~subtracting the
total from the next multiple of O..
The total" says your friend, SIS 81"
The nearest multiple of o above 81
Is q. You subtract 81 from q, and
that leaves g. To your friend YOU
say In a dignifed tone, THE figure
you crossed out was O." And your
wondering friend believes you to be
possessed Of occult powers.
1t doesn't matter what figures are
originally put down, the answer al
ways ome correct.
