PROBLEM IN WREN NESTING.
RossviIle Man Says Family Has Re.
turned Regularly for Fl Years.

To the Editor Of the State Journal:
read in the Journal last evening Of
a curious home for pair Of Wrens in an
old gourd IN which they had made a
nest, which reminds me that in tbs
spring of 1885 I constructed a. little box,
made the entrance so small the spar
rows could not get in but large enough
for to admit the wrens and placed the
box under the roof of the porch In a
few days a pair of wrens took possession
and began carrying in straws and limits
for their nest which they soon finished
Matched out and raised seven young
Wrens and every season for the past 81
years they returned and raised one and
sometimes two broods each spring and
summer. The first day they arrive
usually the h0repart Of May, they spend
in great gAee hopping around the porch
es singing all the time as II rejoicing to
find the old home still there and intact
and after one days rejoicing and jubi-
lee they get busy and commence renew
ing their nest. Now am not much I'D
on bird lore. But would like to hear
from some one that is: are those the
same Wrens that return so regularly
each spring or others? They seem to
know what they are about the first day
they arrive and what they are gotag to
do and they do it, cheerfuIly singing as
they toll admire these little fellows
above most of all birds and think thew
should be encouraged by making little
summer homes for them, for they leave
Us early IN the fall not returning until
late IN the spring, which seems to sig
Nifty they go to the south to spend the
winters. w F. TATMAN

Los Angeles. May 12-Kid Hermann of

The fight was one Of the cleverest
and fastest ever seen in Los Angeles.
Atteu using all his cIeyerness and
speed to avoid the sturdy rushing Of
Hermann. The cleYerness and speed of
Atteu was marvellous and We're all that
saved him from defeat. Hermann fore
ed the fight from start to finish but

was not able to land on Attel effec-
lively. In the fifteenth, sixteenth and
seventeenth rounds Hermann had q big
advantage and it seemed for q time that
Attell would go down to defeat He
rallied in the nineteenth and twentieth,
however, and Referee Eyton promptly
called the battle a draw.
The betting was 10 to on Hermann.
There were about 5000 people present.
Hermann was much dissatisfied with
the decision. but Atten seemed to be
entirely satisfied.

oROURKE 10 INVADE GOTHAM.
Fight Promoter VIII Open. Boxing Club
in Gotham Soon.

New York, May 12.-Acting on the So
licitatiOn of his former patrons in the
boxing business Tom ORourhe has de-
cided to enter again the New York box
ing field, and, with a following of the
best sporting men in New York, organ
lie club for the purpose of running
20-Tound bouts.
Since the decision which made boxing
legal, when run under the strict club
plan, O'Rourlze has been in receipt of
many letters from people who were
familiar with the manner in which he
conducted his bouts in the old days
of the Horton law. Scores of sporting
men who delight in seeing boxers per-
form entreated Mr.. O'ROurke to enter
the local field and with a club house
which would be a permanent home,
where the members could have the adj
vantage not enjoyed by members of
ether cIubs-that of training in their
OWE quarters-cater to champions and
give bouts which would be worth the
large assessment fees they were willing
to pay
Nothing but champions or men of
absolutely the highest class will ap-
pear at the new club" said Mr.
O'Rourke. Il mean only to have the
highest grade men on the rolls, and es-
tablish a permanent patronage such as
I had in the days Of the Horton law.
Our members will be treated to 20
round bouts. They are Just as legal as
the four-round affairs for which mem
bers Of clubs pay high assessments at
present"
