BOY SCOUTS RAISE
$4,000 FROM TAGS
Sales Not as Large as Expected
Owing to the Inclement
Weather Tuesday.

Although the expectations Of the Boy
Scouts officials, with respect to the
amount Of money raised from the selling
Of tags yesterday and Tuesday, have not
been realized, 1t is believed that the ef-
forts OF the juvenile salesmen will place
in the Golfers OF the organization more
than 5000. Full returns have not been
received. but it is hardly thought that
more than this amount will be turned
in.
More than 200 boys sold tags yesterday.
Most OF the youngsters were the ones
who had braved Tuesdays rains to aid
in the money-raising campaign. From
early morning until dark the boys tramp
ed the business streets tagging" pass
ers-by.
The center Of activity was the Amer
lean League Park. Here an army OF
young salesmen scurried through the
crowds selling their tags. Most OF the
tags sold at the park were signed by
Walter johnson. Germany Schaefer,
Chick Gandl. and other members Of
the Nationals. Returns from the sales
were made to the Boy Scouts headquar-
tiers in the Metropolitan Bank Building
and to the various branches Of the
United States Trust Company.
Tuesdays sales amounted to approx
mately $500 after deducting commissions
paid the young salesmen. The boys re-
ceived twenty per cent of the proceeds
from their sales. Yesterdays sales are
expected TO amount TO between 81 200 and
s.. 500 when full returns have been made.
The rain Tuesday was responsible for the
sales falling so far short Of the antici-
pations. II was believed that between
S4OO0 and 5000 would be realized.

yesterday when nearly fifty love-lorn
lads, some Of them accompanied by their
sweethearts. appeared before Col Hail.

Being assured that such was the case.
Col. Kroll was kept busy from the open
ing OF the once until its close issuing
nearly fifty licenses, which for this time
OF the month OF June. 10 considered a
record-breaker. When they stood three
deep in front Of the desk, waiting their
turn. Col Kroll smilingly remarked the
more the merrier' and wished every one
OF the applicants or candidates for matri-
monlal honors white or black. American
or foreigner. a hearty good luck to
you" then he gave them the much
sought after licence.
Almost every State in the Union and
a number OF foreigners was represented
among the applicants. and preachers Of
every denomination were drafted into
service to perform the ceremonies. not
forgetting justices OF the peace. II Is
expected that to-day will be another rec
ord-breaker, and Col. RrOn is in high
glee.
