THE GIRL FROM THE RANCH. ].

There is strong comedy interest in "The Girl From the Ranch" as well as that heart-thrilling love and hate story that goes to make 1t a sue cess. The comedy is natural and not of the farce order so much in vogue and so much deplored by sensible theater-goers. Everything about the "Girl' is natural and the pathos is never permitted to descend to bathos anymore than the comedy is permit tedted to fall into burlesuue. The play is strong in all the elements that go to make popular successes. and is presented by the young actor. George Heath. and his excellent company just as they presented 1t ill New York. with all the scenery. costumes, properties. etc. just the same "The Girl' will be the attraction at Poli's Wednesday.

INTERESTING JOTTINGS
FROM ALAMlTOS BAY

ALAMITOS BAY, March 31.-Frank
R. Strong has, 1t is said, purchased the
Channel club house, which is a two-
story structure beautifully finished,
furnished and decorated. He will soon
decide to what use he will put it.
A. S. Abbot of the Los Angeles Hard
ware company is having cruising
launch built by the Ross Marine COM
pany of this place. 1t will be thirty
eight feet in length and will have a
glass cabin, with sleeping accommoda-
tions for eight people. The same firm
is building speed launch for A. C.
Parsons of Naples, to be finished in
solid mahogany and equipped with an
auto wheel and controller. Mrs. E. S.
Whiting also has a speed boat being
built by the Ross Marine company
which, when completed, is expected to
be the fastest boat of it's size on this
coast.
One hundred and fifty boats on the
bay are being overhauled, painted and
otherwise decorated in order to be
ready for the pleasure seekers who
usually come here every summer for
their rowing and sailing.
The Naples part of the bay has been
raised above high water mark by cut
ting canals and filling up the land ad-
joining, and several fine dwellings have

The West Naples part of the bay
has a monster dredger at work night

The hotels and rooming houses are
all doing a good business and have beer

PASADENA, March 1.-Easter SER
vices IN the local churches were marked
by the Joyous memories of the day.
Gladness reigned throughout the city:
Each church Joined in the general
Easter anthem that seemed to pervade
the atmosphere and choirs sang within
cloister walls what the birds without
sang from the leafy houses of worship
among the Crown City's shade trees.
Special music at all the churches
was of the highest Easter order, and
the sermons were best in honor OF that
event which Easter commentaries.
The churches were filled witht congre-
cations that overhowed them to the
doors.
The society leaders we're also there,
and such an array Of hats, dreamy Gre
.ations of the milliner's art, and of
sowns that were triumphs OF the
modiste's skill, has never been seen be-
fore in the west, nor exceeded In the
east.
Notable among the events of the day,
and an event in itself to cause the
gladness of Eastertide to permeate to
every home within the pale of the First
CONGREGATIONAL church of this city, was
the Easter service this morning at the
First Congregational auditorium con-
Quoted by DR.. Meredith. At that SER
vice $4,000 was raised, and more, to
meet an offer made by DR.. d. Willis
James of New York city, who agreed
to contribute $4,000 toward the liquida-
tion of the $4,000 debt incurred by the
church in building the new structure
two years ago. The sum was raised
by DIR. Meredith in a few minutes at
the morning service. and it was ex-
ceeded by S1700. When the counting up
had been made it was discovered that
the total amount raised reached $6700.
The Mems club of the church had
contributed $1,000 of that sum. and the
women of the aid society of the church
had contributed a similar amount. The
surplus cash will be used in paying off
a small debt of little over a thousand
dollars incurred by the church in the
past two years for incidentals and in
Guiding the accrued interest of the
mortgage given on the $4,000 loan.

VX THEN Abe Attell and Benny
w Solomon jump between the
ropes at Maud Junction to battle
for the featherweight championship of
the world Los Angeles will be making
its first real effort to place a top notch
on the pugilistic boardj.
Several fighters of fame have re-
Gently been developed in the City of
Angeles and are known throughout the
country as so and so from Los An
geles. Tommy and Jimmy Burns are
generally referred to as Angelenos,
though they cannot claim the native
son honor.
If Kid Solomon sends the wonderful
little Able down peg people will say,
There goes the Los Angeles boy who
whipped Attel."
Solomon has fought for years here
abouts, and the dark horses brought
against him have been shelved with
monotonous regularity. Rueful MEM
ory still hovers about a certain sport
ing click of Los Angeles which brought
Joe Green from Chicago.
Green met Solomon twice. Before
the boys first clashed word was sent
quietly about that Green was the liv-
est sort of wire and the money that
went in on his chances could have been
baled.
Green was backed by the weather.
element and his training work showed
him to be a hummer. The battle was
carded as a ten-round affair, and when
the end came both men were on their
feet fighting like demons. Such a
smash-bang fight had not been wit
messed in Los Angeles for many a day.
Nothing would do but that another
match be made. This time Tom Nc
Carey decided that twenty rounds in
a main event was not giving the men
too much as a result of their former
showing.
Shortly before the hour of battle ugly
Los Angeles herald., 1907-04-01

rumors buzzed about the betting quar-
ters. Green money flowed like water,
and this in face of the fact that Solo,
mon had shown better during the pre-
vious meeting.
Suspicion ecame rife and detectives
were put on the trail. Pacific Athletic
club officials became satisfied that q
bad deal was on and Tom McCarey
called all bets off. The men were
roundly hooted as they sat in their cor
ners. Solomon, so the rumor went, was
to lie down in the tenth round.
Before the initial gong sounded SOL
omon and Green were told that If they
did not fight to the bittei end no part
of the purse offered would be forth
coming. Maud Junction patrons will
remember that Green's seconds threw
up the sponge when their man was all
but out.
For the time being Solomon was put
on the black list and McC. ey de-
clared that his ring days were over
SO far as Los Angeles was concerned
Inc Kid pleaded hard, however, and
friends interceded with the Pacific
Athletlc club manager to give him an
other chance.
NOW that Solomon is back again his
error, if he committed one. will be for
| gotten, providing that, like Joe Cans.
he puts discard on the short sports
VINO may approach him with further
offers.
Just what Solomon can do against At
tell remains to be cen. The kid car
r1es but one arm which has thus far
cut any figure in his ring battles Many
a good boy has gone down beneath his
Ie1t' but the right is still to be de-
Veloped.
