Abbot's Queer Angling

A. M. Morse is the recipient of a
marvellous cigar case, by means Of

revenge on the trusting angler. And
thereby hangs a tale. Although it
may be that serious results shall arise
from the following account, we un-
blushingly print the truth.

of the evidence. Early in the morn

Southern California Rod and Reel CLUB
was noticed walking rapidly along the
beach with a long bamboo rod in his
hand. To the end of this rod was tied

attached. not hook, but loop.
Strangely enough, half dozen
chickens were missed about that time
from a poultry ranch in the vicinity
Of the landing. While we would not
dream of insinuating that Mr.. Abbot
was forced to make up for the fish
which he didn't catch. it must be
added that numerous inquiries have
failed to reveal the present where

collection is already being taken up
by his friends, sufficient to stand off

rhere,s Another COMING

Automobile centers will learn with
some degree Of expectancy of another
new car that will be here at an early
date. Not new in name, but new in
size, ability, capacity and that may be
looked upon as a very dangerous ma
chine where records are valued and
tenaciously guarded by mighty efforts
of the manufacturers productions.
This time the Columbia will appear
as ''six' cylinder, sixty horse power,
and capable of developing seventy-five
horse power, and If the little "4'' is
able to walk around covered with sill
yer cups and mugs, it is not hard to
realize the pace the blk "six'' will set
when it makes it's bow for popular
favor. This car is to embrace a novel
idea, now becoming very popular In
the eastern cities. 1t will be known as
the Columbia ''Six- Six" That Is in
addition to being built for one, two,
three, four, five and seven passengers,
this car will be delivered with a six
seating capacity as well as others.
1t will have a cylinder bore of AK
Az inches, a wheel base of 1872 inches,
with 36-inch wheels, heavy and large
springs, and will be one of the coziest
and roomy cars in the claimants for
public approval

TROLLEY LEAGUE TO
PLAY FAST SCHEDULE
Four Teams Have Strengthened LIne-
up, and Today's Games Should
Be Fast-Pasadena Has
Crack Lineup

The Trolley league will play its sixth
series of games Sunday Pasadena
meeting the Giants at Pasadena, and
Santa Ana battling with the McCor-
micks at Santa Ana. The Pasadena-
Giants contest was originally sched-
uled for Joy park but the action of
the Vernon trustees in refusing to per-
nit baseball at the local field. caused
the transfer to the Crown City. All
the teams are playing great ball at
present, the McCormiclEs working like
a big league aggregation.
This club is now leading the league
with a percentage of 800, and Manager
Jim intends to keep the team in it's
present position if such a thing is pos
sible Manager Judge of Pasadena is
also striving for first place, and is but
a step behind the Irish club. Judge
has recently added several big league
stars to his lineup and should have
no difficulty in keeping up with the
rest of the bunch. Ed. Croltc, the
Santa Ana manager, is satisfied with
his team as at present constituted,
and its performances with the exeep-
ton of last Sundays contest, seems
to Justify this confidence. Manager
Early of the Giants is working to
strengthen his nine. but the victory OF
the colored aggregation over Santa
Ana last Sunday, has imbued them
with confidence, and they will be a
hard proposition for any of the clubs
in the future Following are the line
ups for Sundays games:
McCormicks-Cowley pitcher, Weisel
catcher, Gervais first baseman, Harris
second baseman, Wilson third base
man, Plake captain-shortstop Clinton
left fielder, Kerwin center fielder, g.
Kinmerle right fielder.

The air of Los Angeles is saturated

the beautiful garages of which Los
Angeles is proud, owing to their prodl-
gal beauty and facilities, and you wlll
hear nothing much else than Baldy,
and Colonel Fenner, and Wild Bill

And all on account of the annual race
for the summit of the grim old noun

by Colonel Fenner with his Black Bess,
which has a history as famous as
Queen Bess of old England.
floor of the Beirley & Young ware
The racers will start at the city linn
its on the San Fernando road at
o'clock Sunday morning, Sept. 19.
In an interview with Colonel Fenner
Saturday that enthusiast on hard races
said: "Have never seen the Baby
course in such condition as 1t is this
year. The entire run is full of danger
Gus and hard bumps. Santa Clara

yon, during the high water of last
winter completely obliterated the road
In places, and it has never since been
put In shape. The road from Palmdale
to Shoemaker's ranch is absolutely rot
ten. Within the last three weeks there
have been two cloudbursts up there,
and these have cut the road UP very
badly In several places.
'Then again, objections have been
made to the speed of the cars starting
out of the city on the race. By mutual
agreement, therefore, the contestants
will make the starting point at the city
limits
And Fenner turned away as If to
wipe away a big tear that had ap-
peared in the off1ng, on the lee side,
because he could not send the speedy

ordinances and the acts OF Provldence

markable race, won the Flight stakes,

the race was run on a track which was
considered against him. Demund set
the pace, but Atkin, on the upper turn,

Burris hill is probably one of the
most severe tests that a car can be
put to IN Southern California. The

taken is seventy-five hundred rect

The best time that has ever been

Mt OF content with leading the world
~ in the art of light tackle fishing,
~ a number of the more enthusias-
tic anglers of. Los Angeles have banded
themselves into an organization which
will be known as the 3-4-5 club.
Although it is no mean feat of sports
manship to bring husky thirty or
even fifteen-pound yellowtail to gaff on
SO tackle, the object of the new club Is
to reduce the weight of the line and
rod. For some time there has been
much talk in local piscatorial circles
about four-ounce rods, four-strand
lines and other novelties in the art of
fishing ad infinitum, but until recently
no definite action had been taken.
An interesting experiment performed
by one of the Southern California Rod
and Reel club experts Sunday, Sep
tember 5, demonstrated the feasibility
of taking game dsh with extremely
light tackle. The angler in question
fished outside of San Pedro harbor
with a three-strand line, barbless hooks
and a our-ounce rod five feet long.
Three albicore were gated, the largest
weighing twenty-four pounds; three
broke the line and five fish unlocked.
The largest fish fought violently for
thirty minutes.
made, 1t was decided to organize a
3-4-5 club, and the following enthu-
siasts are the charter members: Edgar
E. Lefebvre, president; Roy F. Shaver,
secretary; Smith Warren, E. E. Salyer,
Duke Miles, Ed Winfield, Ed Musick
and Charles Carr. Any angler who
succeeds in taking on the prescribed
tackle yellowtail, albicore, white sea
bass or tuna, of any weight or size,
shall be eligible to membership, and
upon landing one of these species
weighing more than thirty pounds be-
comes life member, winnig a gold
button.
The tackle Specifications are that the
rod must be of bamboo or other wood,
five feet long when set up, with metal
reel seat and detachable butt. The line
must be of three threads or strands
and incapable of lifting a seven and
one-half pound weight
Truly this is the essence of sports
manship. When a sportsman brings
gamy yellowtail to gaff on a barb
less hook and with a mere thread for
line he is deserving of being classed
among the disciples of Isaak Walton.

The feat of the little Columbia in

record. Last week several individual
cars took a whack at the course. Two
