ALL BECAUSE OF
A LOST TIMEPIECE
MAN WHO FOUND 1T FACES A
PETTY LARCENY CHARGE
Refused to Redeem Watch After
Pawning 1t, Although Detectives
Gave Him the Alternative-lt Had
Been Advertised

d. A. Casey, who works for rancher
named Bacon, near Whittier, was ar
rested yesterday by Detectives McKen-
zie and Hawley on charge of petty
larceny.
Mary A. Hazard, a neighbor. lost her
watch while on the way to the Bacon
home on May 2. Casey found the watch
and knew that it belonged to Miss Haz-
ard, but did not return it to her.
Casey took the watch to Unkle Ike's
pawn shop and sold it. The pawn
shop proprietor reported the purchase
to the detectives. They found Montgom-
cry Bros mark on the watch, but could
not find that any watch of the de-
scription of the one that had been
pawned had been advertised for. 1t
had been advertised as lost in the Whit
tier papers.
From Montgomery brothers the detec-
tives secured a description of the man
who had had the watch repaired at their
jewelry store.
The detectives found the man and
asked him If he knew to whom the
watch belonged. He said that he did
They asked him II he would get the
watch and return II TO its owner If they
would let him go.
He told them that he would not re-
deem the watch and give II back to

NEIL AND ATTELL
ARE IN CONDITION
BOTH ARE NOW ANXIOUS FOR
THE TRAY
Men Have Been Signed for Battle
on Four Separate Occasions
and Each Cries
"Faker"

The coming fight between Abe Attell
and frankie Neil for the featherweght
championship should decide the ques-
ton whether Attell Is simply clever
boxer or is capable of real fighting.
Attell has been accused of being 10th
to mix with his opponents, many Of his
critics failing to take into account that
he has been meeting men much above
him I'm weight. Judging from the hit
ting powers which he has displayed
during his training in this city and the
way he has been mixing with his SPAR
ring partners at the Arcadia camp there
seems to be no reason why the fight
fans may not expect different tactics
In the next battle.
In Neil he meets a man slightly be-
low him i'm weight but who makes up
for that by hard hitting. His body
punches have been the means of win
ming most of his battles and 1t Is GER
tain that he will not waste much time
trying to reach Attell's jaw.
Since their last match fell through
there has been considerable hard feel
ing between the boys and it would take
more than team of oxen to keep them
apart now that both are confident they
are in condition.
Four different times during the last
two years Attell and Neil have been
matched to figfh for the featherweight
championship, but fate has always de-
creed that something should come up
to prevent their meeting, and 1t re-
NAMED for McCarey to bring them to-
gether.
When matches are made and fail to
come off an acrimnious spirit is inev-
itably stirred up by charges of bad
faith on both sides, and the Neil-Attell
case is no exception to the rule, and
a feeling amounting almost to actual
animosity now exists between the men.
Neil refused thousand-dollar en-
gagement for week to meet Attell
and it will be battle in which neither
will be fully satisfied until the other
has taken the count.
Attel's cleverness, while recognized
by his antagonist, is looked upon with
derision by the bantamweight cham
pion, who contends that while Attell
has made his other opponents look slow
by comparison, he can show the Ghetto
champion a. thing or two when 1t comes
to speed. Judging from Abe's manner
of training and his oft-repeated inten-
tion of mixing it with a little fellow
who likes nothing better, Neil will have
no complaints to make, for it will be a
hammer and tongs affair throughout,
suited to Neil's style of fighting. Attell
Is faVorite in the betting.

LAKE FOREST, ILL.,, June 2S.-At
the end of the first days play Alex

last week won the western golf cham
pionship, has a lead of two strokes in
the 72-hole play for the ma
tional championship being played for
at Onwentsia. Smith made the first
Is in 73 and the second in "a, total
of 147 strokes.
He took a seven on the twelfth hole
in the afternoon play, drive sliced
deep in the nigh grass costing him two
strokes With any luck on his putting
in the afternoon journey his score
would have been so far below the other
contestants that the championship
would probably have been settled by
the first days play.
Willie Anderson, the present open
champion, is second with 149. Ander-
sons morning card was the same as
Smiths, but on the eleventh hole in
the afternoon play as result of a
brassy shot in the grass plainly af-
fected him. He took rs for the round.
Californian Makes Good Showing
James Maiden of Toledo finished
thifd on the days play with 153.
Maiden took 80 for his morning round,
but 73 in the afternoon made him a
decided possibility. Willie Smith, a
Mexican champion, who with Anderson
and Alex Smith, made 73 during the
morning practically destroyed his
chances for the championship by TAX
ing 81 strokes for the afternoon round,
which made his total 154, the same as
that of l.. Auchterlonie of Glenview,
whose cards were rs and 7S. Other low
