QUAIL ARE
NOW READY
OPEN SEASON ON BIRDS BEGINS
THIS MORNING
Feathered Dainties Reported in Large
Numbers and from Every Drec-
tion, and Limit Bags Should
Result:

What would you do today IL you were
quail? 1t wouldn't do any good sneak
ing off to the high hills or tall brush.
for there will be enough hunters loose
today to kill all the brides in seven
counties. The opening of the season will
be about as big thing as has happened
In gundom in many months, and all
kinds OF things are in store for the
quail
Every bit of cover from the noun
tains to the sea will be searched out for
the, feathered dainties, and unless the
birds are unusually spry or the hunters
unusually rotten shots, there will be
many a quail feast spread tonight The
early season shooting will be as good as
1t ever was and despite the numerous
hunting parties organized to go out and
try for the limit plenty of full bags
should be recorded.
At the sporting goods houses last night
there wasn't gun to be had for love
or money and the shells sold for use to-
day ran into the thousands. The county
clerks office was also a busy place, as
many hunters deferred getting their IL
censes until the last minute. One Chi
nese, the first to apply, was granted a
license when he produced the necessary
twenty-five bucks, and many resi-
dents of other states than California
came through with their ten-spots and
were given tags.
No particular locality need be picked
out on the quest for quail, as the birds
are everywhere. Well within the city
limits of Pasadena a covey was noticed
last Sunday, and rigs driving along the
country roads scare them up by the hun
dreds.
Many local nimrods will journey to
Saugus for the first days shooting pre-
Co. r4,rr 4. Ix1.--~ 4..t.~
All the foothill country has been spotted
in advance, and the pop of guns will
sound from half an hour before sunrise
to half an hour after old Sol hides his
face for the night.
Up toward La Canada and Crescenta
the birds are unusually abundant, but
the residents in that vicinity have de-
cided to make a close corporation out
of their district and fire all outside hun
ters who venture into their territory.
The low ground is we'll postt with
signs forbidding trespassing. and the
ranchers will be on watch for stray
nimrods.
Glendora will be visited by big bunch
which will leave here at daylight in
automobiles. Toluca has also been fav-
ored and the San Fernando wash will
be as popular as ever.
In the country back of Eagle Rock
many coveys have been reported, and
the long rest between seasons has done
much to restore their confidence in man.
The birds 10 not rise until we'll within
easy shooting distance and they are slow
to flush even in open country.
The wise guy will not forget to take
his license tag or receipt with him when
he Journeys afield today. Game Warden
Morgan is making strenuous efforts to
have the hunting grounds well patrolled
with his deputies and any one found
without the necessary permit will be
hailed before the nearest justice of the
peace and soaked the limit.

CHANGE NAMES OF
ALL SOUTH STREETS
COUNCILMEN REVOLUTIONlZE
NOMENCLATURE
Most of the Thoroughfares Below JEFF
ferson Street on Both Sides of Main
VIII Be Rechristened, Prop
erty Owners consentlng

The city council yesterday settled the
question of street naming and number
ing in the south side below Jefferson
street by deciding to begin at Thirty
fifth street and then name the streets in
numerical order as far as the limits.
The scheme contemplates carrying the
idea out with but four exceptions-Ver-
non, Slauson, Manchester and Florence
avenues, as they are on section lines
These streets will be given number for
convenience in carrying out the scheme
but the old names will be retained
Streets less than a block in length OF
which fit in at irregular points will be
given a number to correspond, but will
be known as place"
The presidents of the University and
South Side Improvement associations arC
postal officials were on hand to consult
with the councilmen.
The plan submitted by the city en-.
gineer's department of naming streets
alternatively by names and numbers was
decided to be contrary to the wishes OF
most of the property owners.
The consecutive numbering scheme was
suggested by Councilman Wallace, who
was informed that the delegation had
dropped such a plan because the en-
gineer's department had stated that II
was out of the question.
Councilmen Wallace and YonlSin were
named committee of the council to look
after any details which may spring up
and Chairman Wallace at once delegated
the presidents of the two Improvement
associations as associate advisers.

CASE AGAIN UP AFTER
FIVE YEARS LITIGATION
conneaIIy $4,000 Damage Suit
Against Los Angeles Traction on
Calendar of Federal
Court Today

The Los Angeles Traction company will
face damage suit for $4,000 this morn
ing, when the famous Conneally case
cases up for retrial in the United States
court on the allegation that a member
of the former jury which returned a ver-
dict of $4,000 was drunk.
The corporation has fought this case
bitterly, and through legal technicalities
1t has been drawn out for nearly five
years, in spite of the fact that judgment
las been awarded the plaintiffs. =
Luke Conneally, aged 81, a well-known
dairyman, was killed by a Los Angeles
Traction company car September Z, 1902,
at Jefferson street and Vermont avenue.
The damage suit was filed by the widow,
but she died year later. and the case
is continued in the names of the three
orphans, John Martin, Thomas Joseph
and Francis Michael Conneally, all
young children.
The plaintiff won the verdict In the first
trial in 1904 being awarded $4,000 damages,
but the Los Angeles Traction company

OAKLAND TO PLAY
LEAGUE LEADERS
GAMES SHOULD BE CLOSER AND
MORE EXCITING
Hen Berry Leaves for, San Francisco
Tonight to Join League Mag
mates and Proceed
East

Hen Berrys Angels will start out on
their third week at home today, when
the Oakland team will line up on the
Chutes diamond against the league lead
ers. If the dope book amounts to any
thing the Oaks ought to be harder game
than was the bunch brought here by
Judge McCredie last week, for Van Hal
tren's men have been playing real ball
lately.
In all probability Carnes will be sent
against his old team mates in the open
Ing game. and the fans are hoping that
Hosp will be stuck on the slab to oppose
him. Glass is sort Of lacking in both
men, and game in which they pitch
will be some of slugging match un-
less one or the other had a twirling
streak and held the opposition down.
Games will begin at 2:SO again. and
the usual women's and kids days will
be observed. Quigg remains to umpire
the series, and his unusually excellent
work last week will probably be re-
peated.
Hen Berry will leave for San FrancIscc
tonight to begin his journey east with
the other league magnates. The Ma
tional commission will meet in New York
later in the month, and the Pacihc Coast
league is sure to be we'll represented.

DENVER WARRIORS
COME TO PRACTICE
WILL MEET ST. VINCENTS NEXT
SATURDAY
ocal Football Stars Should Defeat
Visitors, Unless Latter Played
Below True Form Against
Utah Team

Denver University football warriors
sixteen strong, accompanied by Manager
TAFT and Coach Koehler, blew into town
Yesterday and will spend the week In
practicing for their game with 81. VIM
cents next Saturday.
The Denverites are a clean looking lot
of warriors, but if their game in salt
Lake last week is anything to go on they
are not much when 1t comes to the grld-
iron game. The Mormons hung 1t on
the Colorado bunch by big and one
sided score, and Utah is not considered
the best team in the business either.
In the game next Saturday the follow
ing men will probably be used:
Ashby, center; Bruce, full; Andrews,
quarter and left half; Owens, left half !;
Wiley, right half; Pruter, right guard;
Green and Curtis, left guards; Brewster
and Deere, tackles; Rennick and Sey-
mour, ends; Bartels, quarter, and Har-
dins, tackle.
Coach Hempel has not yet announced
the ST. Vincent's lineup, but at prac-
tice scrimmage with the high school this
afternoon he will make final choice.
The Saints are in good condition and un-
less the dope is wrong will defeat the
visitors in Saturdays game.

ABE ATTELL
/. is CONVERT
LITTLE CHAMPION CHANGES IN
RELIGIOUS BELIEF
Adheres to Catholic Church and De-
cIares Faith In Its Teachings.
Kept In Rooms with
Cold

Abe Attell was not seen along the
Rialto yesterday for the good and suf-
ficient reason that he was unable to leave
his rooms. The little champion is con-
fined to his bed with a severe cold and
until 1t is better he will be unable to
start training for the fight with Weekes
on the 2sth of this month.
Since he was last here Attell has
changed his faith and is no longer Of
the Jewish belief. On behest of his wife
the champion Joined the Catholic church,
and from now on will worship according
to the belief of that denomination.
The champion is sincerity itself in his
religion. With all the zeal and ardor of
a convert he attends church and devotes
himself to the ritual of the Catholic
creed. Even his ring contests are the
subject for prayer, and Attell never
misses a chance to attend divine service.
mo more running around town for
me-" declared Attell. IL have changed
my faith and, of course, my way of liv-
ing. The belief of my church does not
permit me to act as L formerly did. and
l will live strictly according to the creed
in which 1 have faith"
AS soon as his present illness Is over
Attell will seek training quarters to pre-
pare Tor his uBnL Will WSShSS' SSNSA a.
places have been recommended TO the
champion, but as yet he has made no
selection San Pedro and Santa Monica
have been talked of, but 1t is not thought
that Able will select either.
Freddie weekes went right ahead with
his training yesterday, and In addition TO
a few miles on the road in the morning
performed with the gloves, weights ana

The little fellow is a pronounced favor-
ite at the Oakwood inn, and his admirers
gather in force when he mounts the plat
form in the afternoon. While Weekes IS
not given much chance against the cham
pion the willing style in which ne goes
about his work has been the means OF
making many friends for the challenger
No betting has been INDUCED in yet on
the fight. but it is thought that Attell
will be or the long end of three TO one
proposition. He has always had large
following in Los Angeles and every time
he starts Able is sure to get bunch TO

Month
BY Associated Press.

STOCKHOLM, Oct. 14.-William Olson
and Goesta Kylhberger, who are at the
head of the movement here to build a
challenger for the American cup, say
that large portion of the money re-
quired to construct the 90-footer, esti-
mated at about $lS9,OO0, has already been
subscribed.
Many large manufacturers have Of
fered to furnish material gratis and the
captain and three mates of the yacnt
will sail her without any pay; the de-
signer will accept no compensation for
his work and the builder will charge
only the net cost of the construction.
Messrs. Olson and Kylhberger think
they will now be able to guarantee funds
even for 95-footer If required.
The report that the Swedish club in
tends challenging with either 70 or a
95-footer in order to compel the New
York Yacht club to build a new de-
fender has no foundation. The Swedish
yachtsmen are prepared to challenge
with a 90-footer and all reports to the
contrary, are sharply denounced by the
Swedish papers.

club has been called for october 21, when

THE BON MARCHE.
LEASE
SECURED BY THE HUB CLOTHING
COMPANY
To Be Known as Store No. 2

Mr.. A. L. Brown, president of the Hub
Clothing Company, has leased tempo
rarily the lower floor of the Bumiller
Building, 430 to 434 South Broadway,
formerly occupied by the Bon Marche.
The Hub Clothing Company recently
purchased the entire stocks of three
of the best known makers OF hne
clothing in the east. This purchase
involved $250,000 worth of high class
merchandise and repres ents deal OF
such magnitude that it would stagger
almost any other concern in California
In speaking of this transaction Mr..
Brown said that on his return from
Europe short time since he found
the eastern wholesale clothing market
completely demoralized. The banks
had called in their cash and the man
ufacturers were hard pressed Tor Iuhus
with which to continue business. Cash
was such a temptation to the manu-
facturers that a man with reputalioi
for consummating largeN deais coui'
secure made up goods at his own price.
IT made a fiat cash Offer SAID MT.
BROWN. "to three of the best known
makers in America for their entire
stocks-stocks so large that tneir
combined value is a quarter OF NIL
lion dollars. My offers, whlcn were,
ridicnlously low, were accepted ana l
am not exaggerating in the least IN
saying that these goods were snlppeo
to the Hub in carload lots. NO one
clothing store in Los Angeles IS large
enough to house and display Tor SAFE
such an enormous purchase, SO l had
to look about for another saiesrooH'.

said. "and the success of that sale VIII

Abbaticchio of the Pittsburg team is a

GOOD GOES
IN PROSPECT
ToNlcHT's CARD SHOULD FUR.
NIsH AMUSEMENT
Four Bouts Attracting Attention and
Boys Who viii Participate Are
Ready-carroIl and McGov
Main Eventers

Tom McCarey's bunch of try-out kids
hook up tonight at Maud Junction, and
unless their performances while In train
ing are too good to be true a lively card
of short bouts is on tap for the fans.
Four goes of the ten-roundN variety have
been scheduled, and they are of unusual
merit for their kind.
No one is regretting the fact that Kyle
whitney backed out at the last minute,
for Dick Sullivan. who took his place as
an opponent for Eddie Chambers, is
looked upon as better man than the
dinge Sullivan is there with quite a
reputation, and his work at the Cabin
yesterday afternoon was all to the good.
Chambers is in shape for a rafting go,
and he has the added incentive of a
match with Kid Farmer If he wins. Yes
terday McCarey promised Eddie that he
would be put on with Farmer in the near
future should he hand the sleep producer
to Sullivan, and Chambers Is more than
anxious to make good.
All the boys who will meet are in nice
shape and worked out at the pavilion
Yesterday. Interest centered in the per-
formance of Jimmy Carroll, for his fight
with Splinter McGovern is looked upon as
the real event of the evening.
Carroll has achieved ,-uite reputation
among the little fellows in Frisco, and
the northern sports sent down some of
bank roll to back him to beat the local
crack. Their money was quickly covered
by the McGovern faction, and all kinds
of rooters will be on hand to boost the
boys.
Dalton Must Win
The Ford-Dalton go will be aome onions
itself, as Ford blew In Sunday in excel
lent shape and with. the declared fnten-
tion Of putting the spaghetti champion
4, tth.,s bad All the pork and beaners in
this section have tried in vain to put
Dalton out, and If Ford succeeds he will
be a wonder.
Should Dalton lose he might as well say
good by to his ring aspirations, for he
Is getting to be chestnut, and McCarey
viii be glad to sidetrack him. But should
he win the son of Sunny It will be In
line for better engagements, for McCarey
cannot turn him down If he whips such
a good boy as Ford.
Dannie Webster and Joe Smith should
furnish an interesting bout, with but
small chance for knockout. Smith is
tough lad and also a willing one, and
Dannie will need all his cleverness to
keep him away and get a decision.
The advance sale has been fairly good
for such an event, and Little Lord Faunt-
leroy has already appointed his mob OF
lemonade peddlers. The first bout is slat-
ed for S:15 and from then on they Will
be run off as rapidly as possible.
