CROOKS SNATCH PURSE
 BUT WOMAN SCREAMS MRS. c. c. HUTCHINSON HELD FAST TO HER PURSE AND THE THUGS FLED. There Are Signs That the Annual Gathering of Crooks in Phoenix
 Has Begun.

While Mrs. C. C. Hutchison of 630 north First avenue was walking on Bennett lane, near Center street, last night about 636 o'clock she was at tackled by two men who attempted to snatch her pocketbook. One of the men struck her a smart blow on the wrist and grabbed the handbag tearing away the handle. Mrs Hutchinson chung to the pocketbook and screamed and the men ran down the street. Mrs Hutchinson had been to the Hotel Ad- ans and was returning to her home The hour was early and she had no fear of going home unaccompanied From Center street she turned into Bennett Lane and was about half way down the block when the two men stole I'D behind her. They must have walked very softly as she did not hear them. They sprang at her without warning Of any sort. One man attempted to hold her while the other snatched the pocketbook. Mrs. Hutchison resisted strenuously and screamed for assist ance, and the men gave up the at tempt after tearing the handbag almost out of her hands. They ran down the street as fast as they could go. Mrs. Hutchison then went to the residence of H. J. McClung nearby and gave the alarm. The police were notified and a general round up of the crooks of the city will doubtless result
 This is about the time of the year when hobos and crooks from the north emigrate to Arizona for the climate. There have been a number of thefts and robberies that have gone unde- tected thus far, and they are apparent ly becoming more numerous. Perhaps the most daring, with theS exception of the attack on Mrs. Hutchinson last night, was the robbery of the car load of gasoline in the M. and P yards No clue was ever obtained to the per- pertrator of that job.

frost could ge at them from every di- rection. Some small water pipes were reported as frozen and there was a general impulse among the popuiace to let the other side of the house build the fire in the morning.
 Even lower temperatures than 90 were reported from some places in the orange belt though unofficially. but they were only maintained for a very short period. and as far as learned no dam age was done. An orange tree will not freeze in a minute unless it is very cold and the advantage of the so-called orange belt lies not in milder tempera- lures as expressed by the maximum. but in the fact that the cold waves keep in motion. They no sooner ar- rive than they move on. by reason of the topography of the country, which causes the cold air currents to drift as would liquid currents if the same section were instantly submerged with a great depth of water.
 One nurseryman reported last night that he had suffered some damage to his small nursery stock and that he would not have suffered had he been properly warned and made any prepa- ration, but he had been led by the weather reports to believe there was no danger of quite so severe a tempera- ture, so he did not even turn the wa ter through his nursery, or take any of the usual precautionary means such as he did take last night of course. de-

COLD WEATHER FOR
 CITRUS INDUSTRY
Unusual Frost of Friday Night Ripped Some Young and Unpro-
 tected Trees.

The orange industry in this valley had about as close a call Friday night as it ever gets and, to be real honest some tree owners were a little worried but as far as could be learned yester- day no material damage was done by the frost. But seldom has it ever been colder in this valley or for that mat ter as cold, and the salvation of the situation is in the fact that such tenn peratures are not long continued.
 The weather bureau reports tenn perature of 90 in this city. which is not considered dangerous for an or ange tree unless perhaps the new growth on very young ones. In certain parts of the city it was probably cold CT than that. owing to particular cOndi- tions, as indicated by ice that formed in the early morning on ollas and other receptacles in the open. where the

gong sounded Bell was unsteady on
his legs and bewildered, not knowing
where to go. Solomon fought Bell off
his feet in the fourth and had the ne
gro holding on stalling. In the last
minute Solomon hooked a left to the
jaw and put Bell down for nine. Bell
was groggy at the gong
The fifth round was very tame, both
being so tired they did not care to do
much fighting. Solomon did what lit
tie aggressive work was done. Solomon
was too rough for Bell in the final
round and the coon did his best to lay
down, taking the count twice from the
effect of blows that had no real effect
upon him. Solomon made him quit
and was entitled to the decision. Bell
should be barred from further local
engagements.
Dougherty Wins a Heat
The semi-windup was on the bill as
six-round bout between Young Turner
and Hobo Dougherty. Owing to the
well known fighting ability of Turner
and the uniform success of Dougherty
in the local rings, the bout was anti
cipated with much interest and the
BOYS and got nice hand from the
ringside spectators.
The first round amounted to very
little, being a series of rushes ana Wlld
swings Neither had any advantage
as there was no fighting done. Dough-
erty took a big lead in the second by
assuming the aggressive and cleverely
going after Turner. He raped the
Mexican several stiff ones to the jaw
that staggered Turner. Dougherty m
creased his lead materially in the third
round by his clever punching and lead
ing. He landed effectively to jaw and
head and was not seriously affected by
the efforts of Turner, whose rushing
tactics and butting did not help MS
cause along.
The fourth round also was Dough-
erty's. He sidestepped Turner's con-
tinual rushes and generally swung hard
to head or body. Turner did little Ell
fective work in this round. Dougherty
maintained his lead In the fifth by
landing most of the clean and effective
blows. The round was without special
feature, however. Dougherty clearly
outfought Turner in the final round
and won the fight. Turner failed to
show his usual speed, courage and
nunch. and while not severely punished
never had a look-in after he adopted
his tactics of shutting his eyes and put
ting into clinches.
The main event fighters, Martin Hef-
ron and Danny Webster, entered the
ring soon after the end of the Dough-
erty-Turner bout. During the inter
mission several bets were made at
ringside at even money. Webster was
first in the ring and was attended by
Eddie Webster, Jim Flynn. Kid Gig
gins and Fat Martin. Hefron was
seconded by Ben Smith, Bill Hayes:
George Peterson, Martin Leahy, ana
Toe Henry. In the toss for corners

Basketball players yelled themselves
hoarse in the Los Angeles Y. M. C. A.
gymnasium last night at two of the
most exciting contests ever played in
Los Angeles.
The game that brought the crowd to
its feet again and again, and which
was in doubt. until the referee blew his
whistle, was that between the Spar
tans and the Pirates, and, true to its
name, the latter team fought desper
ately and won victory by two points
only in the last few minutes of play.
The Pirates were given an ovation as
they left the playing surface, and the
team was defeated, but not disgraced.
and came in for its share of applause,
for the score was a true criterion of
the merits of the opposing quintets.
While the Whittier-P Pasadena game
was not so close, the teams gave a
fine exhibition of passing and basket
ball team work, and the Whittier team
was not certain of victory until the
game was over. ~
The Trojans started out and fought
in manner that showed they were
rightly named, but Pasadena was in
the game every minute, but, try as 1t
might, the latter could not break up
the passing game of its opponents, who

The Pirates took sweet revenge for

expected to be In line for first honors.

ATHLETICS

CLASSY horses will perform today
at Santa Anita, two events OF
~ more than ordinary attractiveness
being featured on the card that Secre-
tary Smith has arranged. The real
feature event will be the Plaudit nam
dicap at six furlongs, in which eleven
starters are named. Some of the pest
sprinters at the track are engaged, ana
if a fast track prevails fast time is
assured and an exciting ana Grassy
contest Is in prospect. The third race.
at one MILE also brings out horses OF
good class and at weights that assure
q. difficult handicapping problem and
a stiff contest. Horses of fair class are
named to start In the other five events
and the prospect for an improved ar
ticle of sport is most favorable.
Jimmy Handy is representing the
management of the Ogden race meet
ing in the matter of stable reserVa-
tions, and Santa Anita horsemen VINO
intend shipping to that city for the
meeting which opens May 5 will do
well to see him. Nearly 100 stalls were
reserved yesterday. and as quite a
large number of stables VII be shipped
to the Salt Lake City meeting. which
begins a forty-day meeting one day
after the close of the Ogden meeting,
many of them will take in the latter
meeting also.
Manager w. w. Finn of the salt
Lake City meeting, is expected to ar
rive today from Frisco with definite
news regarding the appointment OF the
presiding Judge. Joe Burke, who was
asked to take the position, was due to
give a definite reply Monday, but his
long illness probably will prevent MIN
from accepting. In that event FINN
will have definite announcement to
make as to his selection in few days
at farthest, and that selection will be
satisfactory to horsemen in every way.
Jockey Howard was the riding star
yesterday at Santa Anita. He piloted
two winners to the wire and brought
Buckthorn and Gowan in second. He
is riding in great form now and un-
doubtedly will be strong rival OF
Powers and Schilling on the metropoli-
tan circuit during the summer.
The fire at First and Los Angeles
streets yesterday at noon interfered
with traffic to Santa Anita park and
the Judges delayed the first race thirty
minutes, to give all an opportunity to
get to the grounds and witness all
events.

The Long Beach Redcoats baseball
team desires game with either the
ST. Vincents' third team or the Santa
Monica Stars. Address T. Coudres, 954
Amer avenue, Long Beach.
There is likely to be change in the
lineup of the Santa Monica Stars when
the team is assembled for practice. 1t
is understood that the work of Rus
sell in the box in Sundays game did
not meet with the appreciation of Cap
tain Garcia, and there are indications
that new man will be tried out.
SaenZ, former pitcher of the Palms
team, is the one desired, and in all
probability he will be given chance
to try to make good. Saenz' work with
the latter team was brilliant, and II ne
had been given the support he de-
served he would have twirled the VII
lage aggregation to victory, instead OF
an Indifferent loser. The fans are
very much disappointed with Russell,
as his work up to the last two games
had been excellent and visiting teams
did not make much impression on him
until the Paraffine Paint and Wells
Fargo teams began their batting car
nival with his curves.
