RESULTS OF FREEZE

Paul Batxcr Beville who has been one of the heaviest losers by the recent cold weather. spoke optimistic ally yesterday of the good fortune of the Naranja orange grove owners
 despite the fact that there was con siderable damage done. Mr. Beville estimates that next year, the fourth year of the grove and the first yea in which a worth while crop could have been made. the shortage will he fifty per cent. The branch growth of this year makes next years crop and the heavy pruning Of frozen young growth on the trees will reduce the crop to the above amount. Mr. Be- v.lles optimism is occasioped by the fact that for several nights the ther

REVELLE TO SECURE TITLE
 TO SEWARD HOMESTEAD

A copy of a recent decision of the Secretary of the Interior has been received by the officers of the local land office which declares that Capt. Harry E Revelle shall receive pat ent to his homestead of 320 acres located adjacent to the townsite of Seward, on Resurrection Bay.
 The granting of the patent was originally contested on the ground of fraud and hearing was held be- fore the local officers of the land of flee who decided that Reyelle was entitled to receive patent to at least 35 acres of the ground as no evidence of fraud existed in regard to that part of the tract.
 The Commissioner Of the General Land Office reversed their decision and held that no part of the claim was allowable if any fraud existed on any part of it. The secretary, to whom an appeal was taken, has now reversed the decision of the Commissioner Of the Land Office and held with the local officers, but went further and decided that Re- yelle should receive patent to the entire tract of 92O acres.

HENRY GEORGE THEORY
 DEALT BLOW IN OREGON

PORTLAND, Nov. 2O.-The full rental-value land tax and home makers loan fund, amendment, commonly called the single tax bill, defeated in Oregon. was an appli- cation of the Henry George theory that all taxes should be borne by land.
 It proposed to tax all lands at the full rental value, the present own CTS having preferred to rent the lands from the state Opponents of the measure asserted it's purpose was to conGscate all land titles. leaving owners and mortgages nothing but improvements and preferred rights to becime tenants of the state.
 The measure was overwhelmingly defeated. it is estimated here today, by vote of 1S4,9S4 against 4S,S2O for.

Stars Seen Together.

Dorothy Dalton and William Des- mond will be seen for the first time together as co-stars when they are presented by Thomas H. Ince in a strong Triangle-Kay Bee drama by Lanier Bartlett entitled "A Gamble in Souls" The play is declared ex- traordinary in point of both plot and staging and is being heralded as one of the most unusual subjects ever turned out by the Culver City plant.
 "A Gamble in Souls" is the event. full story of girl and a minister who couldn't understand each other until Fate tossed them together into Gods wilderness. It's action opens in san Francisco where the girl and the evangelist. whose impractibality invokes intolerance. first met. Then it is transplanted to an uninhab- tied island in the Pacific, where understanding and love eventually dawn.
 Miss Dalton is seen as Freda Max ey. The role gives her many splen- did opportunities and her perfor- nance is said to be her best con tribution thus far to the screen.
 Desmond has the part of Arthur Worden, the evangelist, and he is said to have made it one Of the most strongly dramatic character izations Of his career.
 The support is supplied by Chas. K. French as Tom Leonard, a thea trical manager, and p. D. Tabler as Gus Hanson. a Swede. The pro- duction was directed by Walter Ed wards.

Transhooting.

Obviously. the most important part of a trapshooter's equipment is a shotgun, and in this there is 8 wide range of choice, both as to the type of arms and the cost.
 Shatguns are divided into thre principle classes, single-barrel, dor ble-barrel and the magazine or pump gun. Prices range from $i to $500. However a thoroughly good gun can be had for from S25 Ito $50.
 Various other articles are used by shooters as matter of necessity or vanity Your fully accoutred shoot CT faces the traps with as elabo- rate an outfit as is worn by the star of the diamond or the knight of the gridiron. He wears shooting pack ct and girdles himself with a belt and shell pouch; his gun is fitted with hand protector and q recoil pad. special glasses of giant size protect his eyes from the suns glare and ear protectors dull the report of the exploding shell
 Yet the man who comes to the shooting grounds cap-a-ple is ffe- quently vanquished by a rough-and- ready duck shooter, clad in home spun and sans everything except a hunt-scarred gun of uncertain vim tage.
 Complete equipment is desirable but. after all, it is simple ability to get what is shot at that makes the 5uccessful trapshooter.

Larry's Career Is About Ended
 Larry Lajole's baseball career probably ended with last season. The big Frenchman has been draw ling $9,OOO a season for the last three years. but with the close of the 1916 season that agreement ex- pired. Connie Mack paid only half Of the amount mentioned, the Cleve- land club standing for the other holf.
 It is certain that Mack will not retain Laioie, for he intends to build up team with youngsters.
 Lajoie came into the National League in 1896. He was member of the Fall River team at the time. The Philadelphia National League club sent scout there to look over Phil Geler, a Washington boy, and Lajole was thrown in for good mea- sure in the deal for Geier
 Tn due time Bajoie became one of the most famous of players. 1 George staillngs. who managed the 1 Phillle at one time. was responsible for the placing of Laioie at second base, where he became famous be- cause of his graceful fielding and his terrific batting.
 It ls not likely that Lajoie will be picked up by any other major league club, now that he is a free agent. and he is not apt to go to any minor league, for his salary demands would be too high, though he could both play and manage a team.
 Lajoie is man of wealth. He has drawn big salaries for many years, and he has been of a saving disposition, and is reported to have a lot of money invested.

Bantam Champ Defeats Byrne
 Rather Easily.

Johnny Ertle, bantam champion, easily disposed of Mickey Byrne Of Cleveland. Their scheduled ten- round bout at Cleveland last We'd nesday night was stopped in the ninth to save Byrne from a knock out.
 Byrne showed flash of form in the early rounds, but Ertle's punch es had the steam, and in the sixth he nearly slowed the cleyelander away with a right to stomach, fol- lowed by a tattoo of blows to the jaw.
 After that, Byrne was groggy and although he tried to come back in the seventh by making savage rushes his blows lacked force and he was badiv punished and in a fair way to be knocked out when the referee stopped the bout in the ninth.
