Wayne Davis returned yesterday morning from Los Angeles where he went a couple of weeks ago thinking that he might stay but he found no opportunities there equal to those of the Salt River Val ley.

He thinks that all that has been printed about the colored fighter does not be- gin to tell the whole story. There can be no adequate description of his quickness and no man can describe that punch of his until it has been tried upon him and then for several minutes he cannot tell what he thinks Of it for he thinks of nothing.

to several trivial matters. But the
evening turned out very well fortu-
nately. Orde could not have stood
much more. They had the parlor quite
to themselves. Carroll took the cover
from the tall harp, and. leaning her
cheek against it, she played dreamily
for a half hour. Her arms we're bare.
Her soft bosom pressed against the

The round. full arch of ms chest was
