MISS ruth GREY
GETS GOOD CROWDS

The ninth successive performance
of Ruth Grey at the Hattiesburg Au-
ditorium last night drew the largest
audience of the week and the per-
Torrance was the best of the series.
A feature worth noting is the char
acter of the audiences, which has con-
stantly improved. Many of the lead
ing professional men of the city are
now regular attendants. and are much
interested in Miss Grey's work, which
is now regarded as scientific ac-
complishment more than mere effort
to amuse and entertain.
Miss Grey will lecture Thursday
afternoon to the ladies and it is ex-
pected that large audience will be
present.

English Challenger Announces peci.

Trophy in Race with Ninety
Foot Boat

CHICAGO, April 20.-The Tribune to-
day prints the following special cable
from Naples:
"Sir Thomas Upton, who is here
with his yacht Erin, asks that formal
announcement be made that he will
try again for the Americas cup, and
will forward his challenge in August
next for a series of races under uni
versal rules with a 90-foot boat.
"I think it would be the best plan.'
he said for a representative to carry
notice of the challenge personally to
the New York Yacht club, and l will
wait the answer at my hotel. The
challenge will, of course, be intended to
cover a series of races, under Ameri-
can rules. 1 do not ask for English
rules, but there is no sense in cup rules
made a half century ago.
"'Let it be made known that l have
no complaint to make of past treat
ment The best boat has always won.
The reason for my persistence is that I
want the cup. In these future at
tempts 1 will give good sport, even If
I lose again. 1 do not think the New
York Yacht club will deny another con-
test for the cup under the conditions
l have named.
1.-THE races will be held a year from
next fall. My mind Is made up for
further trial, but I shall not forward a
formal challenge until August. If the
Americans want a race on fair terms
they may have it. My designers are
working on plans for my new boat"

ROBINSON FAILS TO
PUT OUT HERB WHITE

SAN PEDRO, April 20.-A fair sized
house were disappointed in the main
event at the San Pedro Athletic clubs
pavilion this evening when Bubbles
Robinson of Los Angeles failed TO
knock out Herb White of San Bernar-
dino. White kept covered throughout
the fifteen rounds and the only real
fighting was done in the last round
1t was more of a fancy boxing match
than a fight, many leaving the house,
thinking it was fake. The colored
fighter put up a classy exhibition, but
failed to get in any hard blows and
the fight dragged out its full course
to the disappointment of the crowd,
who had expected a konckout during
the first few rounds.
In the first preliminary Kid White
knocked out Young Oranson at the
commencement of the fourth round.
Oranson was game, but was entirely
outclessed by White.
The battle of the evening was in the
second preliminary, when Billy Cap
pelle of San Pedro won a well con-
tested eight-round decision over Joe
Livermore of Los Angeles. The fight
was bitter from start to finish and
somewhat redeemed the disappoint-
ment of 40 main event. There was
plenty of mixing, Capelle landing the
CleaneSt blows.
