Abe Attell arrived from Seattle yes

~$2, 900, the soft coin which he plckeu
up on the side by putting the crusher
on Eddie Kelly Monday afternoon. The
little champion is minus the marks that
aSscrapper generally remembers a nsnt
by. From appearances the Buffalo
newsboy did not lay glove on Atteli
during the eight rounds Of milling.
Naturally Attell is well satisfied with
himself over the clever trick he turned
Attell says that Kelly put up much
better fight than he did in this city
last winter, when the champion cleaned
him in seven rounds. According to At
tell, Kelly was on the job all the time
and the stage fright from which he
suffered here was absent. This may
sound all right. but those who were
stung when Kelly started here for the
first time and only time will have to
be shown.
Attell lost no time in beginning work
at Colma for his coming fight with
Brooklyn Tommy Sullivan. In company
with his brother, Monte, he hied him.

hours after his arrival. He will work

trained and a little road work now and
then to timber up.

Sullivan in earnest yesterday. After doing
eight mile trick on the road in the morning the
Montana terror took TO the gymnasium in the
afternoon and put in several strenuous hours.
He wound up the days toll by going four
lively rounds with Joe Willis. the Vallejo

two more heavy weight sparring partners and
all eligibles requested to report for try
out.

Quebec now came to meet Champaign on his
second visit to New France in 1920, with
his young wife Helene. Far down the slo.]o
the children played games on the grass. An
ox-cart waited, ~embowered IN green, to
welcome the bride. The Indians, with the

spectators in obtaining applica-
tions for railroad grant lands will
be presented to United States Attor-

government prosecutor to decide
whether these operations are legal
or contrary to statute, and whether
they are as such amenable to the

If the latter condition is found to
be the case. the federal court will
be stormed by horde of plaintiffs,
as solicitors in Oregon, Washington

could be forced to sell the grant
lands at $3.50 an acre to action set

Iup a crop of solicitors, who made
lit their business to gather in appli-
mants who were assured they could

For a fee, which Postal Inspector
Richards says ranged from $40 to

the railroad officials in San Francis

acres wanted by their clients. In,
] yariably these tenders would be re-
fused by the railroad. and the next
step Of the solicitors would be tC

CELLO, AND MISS KELLOGG.

A glance at the program as pre-
sented by the Lillian Blauvelt
company shows that all three artists
constituting this organization have
ample opportunity to show their
splendid power as instrumentalists
and vocalists, as well as to demou-
strate their versatility The entire
gamut of composition is run when
you consider the eighteen or more
numbers delivered.
Madame BlauveIt, who is TODAY
considered one of the greatest. if not
the greatest lyric soprano of Ameri-
ca, heads the list of talent and is
assisted by Mr. Albert Rosenthal.
one of the best known cellists of
Europe and America, and Miss Edith
kellogg, solo pianist and accompa-
mist.
1t is now four years since Madame
Blauveit was heard on the Pacific
coast, and at that time both critics
and public went into ecstacies over
her delightful work. She now
comes reinforced with many appear
ances in oratorio, recital and opera
during the interim, and according to
the advice received from the ablest
critics she is singing better than
ever before.
But 20 recitals are to be given
west of the Rockies by the Blauvelt
company. and we are indeed fortu-
nate to be included in the itinerary
of the company. Following is the
