FANS DISCUSS
NOLAN'S OFFER
Actions Of Mexican May Result in
oisbarment Before Every Club
in Country-Nolan
Figures

The principal topic on the rialto yes
terday was the startling assertion of
Billy Nolan that he would send Mel
son against Herrera in the event of
sufficient guarantee being made that
the latter would enter the ring.
Opinion varied regarding the possi-
hilities of a future match, and while
many held that the men would box to
a crowded house, others expressed
themselves as certain that Herrera
would not be tolerated. In the event
of Nelson and Herrera being matched
again. interest would be purely devoid
of sentiment other than desire to
witness what might occur after the
terrific strain which has resulted be-
cause of Herrera's backdown.
1t would be a one-man house with
Nelson as an idol and Herrera boxing
before spectators waiting anxiously for
the Dane to put him away.
The sentiment against Herrera is so
great that many argue the Mexican
Will never again secure a match before
any club in the country. Nolan insists
that unless Herrera meets Nelson he is
down and cut for good, but would
rather see the Mexican receive his final
trimming at the hands of the Dane
The Swede's manager believes that
the men would draw a greater house
than ever, If another agreement could
be made. regardless of the despicable
trick of the Mexican in crawling from
the first match.
Nolan figures upon the fact that a
deadly animosity such as now exists
would necessarily result in an unparal-
leled interest as regarded future
meeting. McCarey has declared that
Herrera will never again be given a
chance under the auspices of the local
club and Furthermore that he will Ell
deavor to have crimp put upon the
Mexican's aspirations before every club
In the country.
Whether or not disclosure on the
part of Herrera relative to outside in
fluences in connection with the recent
deal would place him in II better light
admission is forthcoming, At the
present he stands branded as an in
CRATE before the public and his future
is blended with a doubtful hue.

HANDBALL PLAY
WILL COMMENCE
ATHLETIC CLUB TOURNAMENT
OPENS TODAY
Aspirsnts for Championship Honors
Have Been Praeticing for Weeks
and Many Close Matches Will
Be Contested

Several weeks from now and the
champion handball artist of the Los
Angeles Athletic club will have been
rendered the honors due after long
and difficult schedule. There are play
ers among the local club members who
possess right emitting them to par
ticipate In any handball tourney and
then there are those whose ambition
will be to avoid receiving the leather
medal which necessarily is to be award
ed at the close of the tourna Tnent
For weeks there has been n steady
wearing away of certain superfluous
flesh not calculated to assist i'm the
capture of handball honors and what
ever the outcome of the tournament
degree of useless avordupois is watt
ing around somewhere out of harms
way. The rules of the club regarding
an unselfishness in the use of the courts
has been called into strict use during
the past few weeks, and so as soon as
one contingent had chalked up a game
they gave way to the waiting quar-
tet which ever hovered about the
courts.
The class of the various players has
not been exhibited in former club con-
tests and as a result no handicaps were
possible for the initial tournament. A
wonderful interest has been manifest
ed in the game since the club was es-
tablished and many of those who
scarcely" possessed the knowledge of
service are now rounded to rattling
good players. AS a gymnasium exer-
else the sport is without q peer and
with perspiration flowing from every
pore and muscles looming out from
hitherto flabby arms and legs, the Ath-
letic club members have entered with
zest into the eXhilarating pastime.
There are perhaps four classes of
players following the game at the local
courts; the top notchers, those capable
of putting up a fast, clean game, Others
rapidly gaining an insight into the fine
points and those who are learning the
l5nack of driving the rubber ball with
out sending the bounding sphere out
of court.
A number of guests are expected and
arrangements have been made whereby
they can secure admittance cards from
the secretary, enabling them to secure
seats in the gallery.
The tournament will be in the nature
of a round robin affair and every con-
testant will meet each opposing player
before the tourney comes to an end.
Those who will play today are:
C. l.. Moon VS.. Adolph F'rankel, r..

SANTA BARBARA, May S1.-The
biggest colonization scheme in the his
tory of the western country was made
public today by fling of Incorporation
papers of the Santa Ynez Valley De-
velopment company for five hundred
thousand dollars for fifty years.
The directors are B. f. Coons, #.
Van Vranken, Herbert Burdett, r. II.
Edwards Of Los Angeles and w. r.
Thompson of San Francisco. others
who are interested in the company
are Fred Braden, r. N. Shackelford,
Charles Hall and G. E. Wantland of
Los Angeles.
For several months the promoters
have been quietly at work securing
land, not wishing to unveil their mo-
ttves in order to secure what they de-
sired at as low price as possible.
Twenty-seven thousand acres were Sc
cured by the agents of the company
over two months ago, but they have
been laying low" in order to get FIVE
thousand acres more which they de-
sired. Their holdings now aggregate
thirty-three thousand acres.
Plans were made to file incorpora-
ton papers during the latter part OF
for the time being by the disaster al
Plenty of Water
The land consists of some of the
richest acreage in the Santa Ynez val
ley and has enough water to make cul-
tivation profitable. The scheme was
started with the idea of colonizin9
only, but this has been changed by the
recent discovery of large amounts oi
oil. The land will now be sold to set
tiers for a reasonable sum, but all OF
the mineral rights will be reserved.
Colonizing will be done on the
largest scale ever heard of in the west
The large tract will be divided into
farms of ordinary size.
Towns will be laid out and lots viii
be sold.
The best of railroad facilities will he
provided by building line from
Lompoc to Nordhoff, both of which are
located on the Southern Pacific. While
furnishing good service for the colon
lists this cutoff will lessen the dis.
tance from Ventura. to Surf, which are

SIMONSYILlE RESIDENT
Pleased With Yestsrday's News and
 Wants Moro of k

II see you had lot of S!monsville items in the paper last night" re- marked a resident of that district to a Democrat reporter to-day. "The one calling attention to the neglect of the trolley company to build the line to the Pearl Lakes road was all right. l have often wondered why people down that way never brought that to the attention of the board of aldermen. Some of our neighbors make big fuss over things that are of little Or no consequence, but here is something that concerns every body who lives below where the troll ley stops and you don't hear a word about 1t. Why don't you call up Sem ator Tracy and ask him why he and his neighbors stand for that sort of treatment? saw where MT Tracy was before the board of public works a few weeks ago and talked upon several matters pertaining to Simons- ville. but If he mentioned the unfin- ished trolley line the papers didn't say SO. The reference to lack of wa ter down that way didn't appeal to me very strongly, not because 1t was not true, but on account of the fact that a great many who have the ser vice opposite their houses have not yet connected with 1t and while this Is so the rest of the people cannot ex- pect that the city will keep an ex- tending water mains in streets where people don't appreciate the benefit of them. In Tracy avenue the city laid a main this year for distance or several hundred feet, but all the property owners have not connected with 1t and until they do don't see how people beyond them can expect an extension of the service"
 People who live in lower Baldwin street and in Hopeville as well as em- ployes of Smith & Griggs want the trolley extended. but those who get off this side of Post street are satis- fled and no doubt this explains why nothing has been said about 1t. The car can go to the Pearl Lakes road and return to the switch between Stone and Washington streets on. time to meet the other one at that point, so that the only expense the company would be put to in extend- ing the service to the place agreed upon would be the cost of laying the rails.
