Eddie Smith, the Oakland referee.
viii off7ciste in the ring at the Coli
scum. tonight when Battling Nelson and
Abe Attell clash in their 15 round con-
test. Smith takes the place of Eddie
Grsney, who announced yesterday that
he would be unable TO undertake the
task because of illness in his family
Nelson and H Cohn, representing At
tell. got together with Promoter Sam
Berger. and after short discussion
agreed on the Oakland man.
So confident is Nelson on the eve of
the great battle that he is willing to
bet $1,000 against $4,000 that he will
STOP AtteI before the bout goes the
limit Bat had his money ready to put
up last night but ne was unable to
find q taker. The bet stin goes. how
ever. and any one who is willing to
wager on the chances of Attell can find
Nelson on the job today.
When the Durable Dane, Cohn and
Berger met last evening all parties ex
pressed their regret over the inability
Of Graney TO act as referee. Nelson
mentioned Jack Welch. Cohn, while
having nothing against the king of the
Potrero, said that he would not like TO
accept him now. because he had al
ready chosen Graney over Welch's head
at the original conference Cohn added
that il was not likely that Welch
would care TO act under the circum-
stances
The men then discussed many ref
erees and Nelson finally consented to
accept Smith. The Dane had no objec-
ton to the Oakland man, but was
merely feeling Cohn out
Smith has refereed many fights in
this city and other parts Of the state
during the last 10 years. He is one of
the most popular sporting men in Oak
land and has always stood for clean,
upright boxing. He has not appeared
as the sthird man in the ring in this
city for some time. Every decision
Smith ever gave here was satisfactory.
He is an oldtime boxer himself and
knows the game like a book.
BETTING Is AT EVENs
The betting reflects the state of mind
OF the men who like to have a wager
down on a fight and indicates how hard
II is to figure out which man will win.

From the time the first bets were re-
corded the price has been even money,
and according to the men familiar with
these things there will be But little
change in the figures when the men
enter the ring, Either may be a favor
ite. although Nelson is more likely to
gather strength than Attell. With his
advantages of weight and height the
Dane is the logical choice. but his op-
ponent has a large and an enthusiastic
following that will be betting until the
men face each other in the ring.
Each Of the lighters is confident and
each expresses the opinion that if he
cannot win, at least the other man can
not defeat him decisively. Nelson bases
his view on his meeting with Attell in
Philadelphia, when, although not at his
best physically, he gave his opponent q
great going over. Witnesses of the
fight expressed admiration of the speed
shown by Attell in keeping away from
the worst of Nelson's attacks.
AtteH has boxed with Nelson repeat
edly in training quarters and he be-
lieves he knows the Danes style so
well that he can win from him. There
is no questioning the fact that Atten
has gained in strength in the last six
months. He has shown improvement in
all of his recent fights and undoubtedly
has improved in hitting ability There
was but little room for improvement in
boxing skill, as he has been an artist
with the gloves for many years.

fight and should batter him down with
his superior strength.

way. Ed Smith, another eastern au-

CUTTING CHRISTMAS TREES
chief Forester Pinchot Says Damage
to Forests from This Custom
IL Insignificant.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 26.-The nations
forests this year supplied 4.0O0.0O Christmas
trees, the forestry service estimating that
one out of every four families observed the
tree custom at Yuletide. Clifford Pinchot,
United States forester. upholds the Christ
mas tree custom and believes 1t should be
maintained. THE number of trees cut this
year." he said, sis insignificant when com
pared to the consumption for other pur-
poses for which timber is demanded. This
clearing of an area equal to a good sized
farm should not be the subject of much
worry, when It is remembered that for
lumber alone It is necessary to take timbers
from an area of more than 10000 acres
every day o fthe year. 1t is true that there
has been some damage to forest growths
In the cutting of Christmas trees in various
sections Of the country, particularly In the
Adirondacks and parts OF New England.
but throughout these sections the damage
is small when compared with the loss OF
forests through careless methods Of lum-
beI1ng.
TEN of forest management in the world, al
though its per capita use OF Christmas trees
is greatest. In this country the foresters
predict that the Christmas tree business
will become a recognized industry and tina
as much attention will be given It is ID
now devoted to growing Of crops Of tim.

there was lively interest manifested by the

Crowds were ont, torpedoes were laid along
the track that the car might fire It's own
salute, and cheers were shouted. At Bath,
which boasts of one of the oldest cotton
mills Of the south, the car halted and Mr..
Taft complimented the mill operators on
their industry and progress.
At Aiken the people were somewhat dis

stop in town, but his car went through

bile to cover the mile an a half to the

his golf and s O'Clock when the home trip
