In a rushing fight. For ABOUT iVe
rounds he hammered Nelson al over

This trip in full training and with
fifteen rounds to go, he will use every
ring trick on his list, which Is a mhe

distance and the tr!ckiest long range

.HERELL be doings tonight
when Abe Attell and Battling
Nelson meet in San Francisco.
The fight is fifteen-round affair.
Promoter Sammy Berger tried his
level best to induce Attell to make
1t twenty, but the foxy feather
weight couldn't see it. Attell is be-
coming timid about travelling the
long route. The only thing that
stands between Abe and Owen Moran
Just now is Attell's refusal to accept
Coffroth's offer for a twenty-five to
forty-five round bout.
Still, Abe must be given credit for
having his nerve with him in mix
ing 1t with Nelson. Abe fought Mel.
son few years ago in Philadelphia.

travel a rocky road for six rounds

"FIodora" Tonight.

''Florodora," the famous musical
comedy, will be the opening attraction
presented by the Pollard Lilliput1an
Opera company. II is also most too well
known by the American public to re-
uuiret any extended mention. 1t is re-
plete with tuneful melodies, and one
of it's notable features is the famous
sextette with the song Tell Me Pret-
ty Maiden" On account of its tuneful
airs "F'lorodora" has attained wide
world fame and the "Thell Me Pretty
Maiden" has been sung in almost every
language known to civilized man. The
comedy itself is fascinating in its plot
and incidents and always finds well
come from the patrons of amusements'
In the hands of the diminult1ve artists
it will be given an elaborate produc-
ton and as these little stars are as
clever in action as they are in singing
an enjoyable treat may be anticipated
when it is presented tonight at the
Keylor Grand theater. The remainder
of the repertoire will be as follows:
Friday night "The Belle of New York, y
Saturday matinee and night, 1.-The Toy
Maker" Sunday night, "a Runaway
Girp; Monday night, 1.-THE Mikado.'
The sale of seats is now on for the en-
tire engagement.

ADJUSTMENTS

"The Ciansman.


To the largest house that has filled
the Keylor Grand this fall, ''The
Clansman'' was presented last night IN
a manner which pleased the fashion
able Walla Walla audience. The play Is
well known taken from two of Thomas
Nixon's novels, 1.-The Clansman," and
"The, Leopard's Spots" 1t had the
sympathy Of the house from first to
last, and the southern point of view
was easily predominant.
Without entering into the merits OF
such a play, which deals with vital
problem of the south. it may be said
that it was we'll presented and by
company of more than ordinary ability.
AS BEN Cameron, the Clansman,"
Franklin -Ritchie did well. He por-
trayed with real earnestness the feel
ings of a fry southerner in the sit
uations which arose. AS "Eslie Stone
man." the leading lady, Eugene Hay
den was very good, as was also Miss
Nellie Graham in a part scarcely less
important. The negro impersonation
was better than is ordinarily seen and
the acting of Charles Wilson, as "Silas
Lynch" the educated negro. was per-
haps the best of the evening. Barry
Maxwell as ''Nelse' was also good, as
was also Joseph Sweeny' as Gus. In
all, the play was one Of more than or
binary merit and the support given
the principals was of the same class.
