SEA TURTLE BEARS MESSAGE.

Evidently Liberated rs Years Ago In
Pacific.
One of the puzzles of the sea came
to the surface recently when gigantic
sea turtle was captured by julius So
LISA, fisherman at San Diego, In
whose net it had become ,entangled.
The monster weighs 1902 pounds, al
most a ton, and it's shell is five feet
two inches from tip to tip. On it's
back somewhat plainly is burned or
carved this inscription: British ship
Sea Bride, August IL, 1881, three
south, SO west. If found please notify
Thomas Fletcher, Brawley road, Riv-
ington, England"
It would appear from this that the
turtle was captured &c years ago in the
south Pacific, and that it was released
after the lettering had been burned in
it's she'll.

CROSBY FIVE TO DIsBAND.

Roland Morse, who has been act ing as captain of the Crosby High school basketball team since Larkin, the regular leader. was compelled to quit the team as he did not have the time to devote to the game, has sig nified his intention of resigning. As Morse is about the whole team it is likely that the quintet will decide to play no more games this season.
 The five was doing very we'll until the players began to drop out, and when Captain Larkin was forced to give up the game because his parents demanded it, the team was considera- bly, weakened. The players were dis couraged and were thinking of dis banding when Morse was chosen cap- tain. and although the team has not been much of success, Morse has done very well. He is a good center and on fast team his work would he favorable. The players may de- eide to continue, but as Blacker, one of the guards, is also going to cease endeavoring to throw baskets. 1t ap- pears as though nsw team will have to be selected.

FOUGHT TO A DRAW.

Bridgeport, Feb 7.-Maurice Savers of Milwaukee and Willie Fitz- gerald of Philadelphia fought six slashing rounds to good draw last night before a crowd of 1000 in Eagles hall. The house was well filled and the seating arrangements were admirable. The ring was the regulation twenty-four foot affair, on a raised platform in the center of the hall. The bouts, which were the best ever put on since the revival or boxing in this city, were held under the auspices of the Colorado A. C. or which Dannie Walker is manager.
 To those who knew of Sayers's fighting ability and record, his fine fight with Fitzgerald was no surprise, but to the majority he came as a stranger and he made good in the minds of the fair minded crowd at the finish of the first round of the six. Savers is a fast, clever boy and he mixed it with Fitz from the first to the last bell HonOrs were about even and the crowd enjoyed some excellent boxing.

LEWIS DUCKS SULLIVAN.

Chicago, Feb 6.-Harry Lewis has chanceled his match with Mike Twin) Sullivan, which was scheduled to take place in Denver on February 21. The men were to meet yesterday and sign articles for the fight. but no sooner had Harry Been notified that he was matched with Cans than he cancelled this fight with Sullivan.
 It is believed that Lewis made this move fearing that Twin would defeat him which would mean that Harry's fight with Cans would be declared of. Lewis manager stated that he would pay all expenses that the Coliseum club. of Denver. was put to and that Sullivan would be taken care of.
 Denver has the report that Riley in- tends to call of the Britt-Gans fight and substitute Lewis for Jimmy. There is nothing in that report. for only yesterday Riley wired stating that he will hold the Britt-Gans fight if 1t cost him every dollar he posses es.
 Riley may bid for the Gans-Lewis fight. the battle to take place after the Britt contest. but Riley depends on a Frisco crowd, and Jimmy Britt Is the fighter that will attract the westerners.

Word was received here from San Francisco yesterday that Bill Squires the Australian heavyweight cham pion. was about to sail for America on the Pacific Mail steamer Ventura, ac- companied by Jack Wren. a well known Melbourne tookmaker who will act as his manager in this coun- try. Squires has cabled that upon his arrival here he will post s5.0Co and is- sue a challenge to fight any man in the world. Squires should arrive in California about March F.

Wallingford, Feb 7.-,Before a good-sized crowd. Wallingford added another game to their lost column at the hands of Waterbury last night. The visitors were here in full fight ing trim with their best team, and at times played all around the locals. Loxson was in the game from the start and succeeded in caging most of Waterbury's goals. For Walling- ford Madden played fine game and was all over the playing surface at all times. Penfield also played we'll, but Barry at second rush was very weak. Penfield's shots for the cage were accurate and well timed, but Sutton was always there with the goods. Both goal tenders did excel lent work. Two fouls were called on Waterbury for holding, one on Mooney and the other on Holderness. The lineup and summary:

GLAR|NG DEFECTS
FOUND IN CHARTER
Provides for Enforcement on Approval
by Legislature, Which Is Impos-
sible, as Offices Are Not
Provided
Special to The Herald.

Special to The Herald.
SANTA. MONICA, Jan. 31.-What ap-
pears to be glaring Irregularities in the
wording of the new city charter have
been brought to official notice by City
Attorney Ben Hunter and seem to Of
fer foundation for the statement that
part IL not all of the document would
be declared invalid If it's legal status
were made question for court of
law to determine Article 16 of section
provides that This charter shall
take effect Immediately on its approval
by the legislature, as provided by law"
This, the city attorney contends,
means that the charter must go into
effect at once after being signed by
the secretary Of state and enrolled,
which, he claims, calls for the impos-
sible, inasmuch as the charter creates
provided for in the fifth class charter
under which the city is now governed.
Mr.. Hunter In expressing an opinion
as to the responsibility of the city off,
cials on the charter becoming legalized,
said that their acts he presumed would
have to be in accord with its provis-
ions during the remainder of their
terms of office.
A particularly noticeable inconsis-
tency in the document is that although
1t makes provision for a police court
and furnishings 1t fails absolutely to
state the method of procedure for fill
ing the Judges chair.

Special TO The Herald.

Special to The Herald.
LONG BEACH, Jan. Slowing to
the rapid increase in the membership
of the First Baptist church, the new
edifice at Fourth street and Locust
avenue will be used next Sunday for
Sunday school purposes. The building
will not be ready for dedication until
May 1.
Plans for the new Fisher theater
building, which R. e. Fisher will erect
on the pier If he secures permission
from the city council, have been partly
completed. The building will have a
commodious stage. A fire extinguishing
plant will be installed, pumping the
water necessary from the ocean under
meath. The theater will seat 1900 peo-
pie. Fisher expects to have it running
by May /. 1t will cost $4,000.
The proposition to park the bluff has
been referred by the council to the COM
mittee on public works. The matter
is expected to be permanently tabled
by this committee, at least until a new
plan has been presented.
