HANDBALL PLAY
WILL COMMENCE
ATHLETIC CLUB TOURNAMENT
OPENS TODAY
Aspirants for Championship Honors
Have Been Practicing for Weeks
and Many Close Matches Will
Be Contested
Several weeks from now and th«s
champion handball arllßt of the Lou
Angeled Athletic club will have been
tendered the honors dun after a long
and difficult nchcdule. There are play
ers among the local club members who
possess a right entitling them to par
ticipate In any handball tourney mid
then thcro nro those whose ambition
will bo to avoid receiving the leather
medßl which necessarily Is to be award
ed nt the close of the tournament.
For weeks there has been n steady
wearing awny of certain superfluous
flesh not calculated to assist In the
capture of handball honors and what
ever tho outcome of the tournament
a degreo of useless nvoirdupoin is waft
ing around somewhere out of harm's
way. Tho rules of the club regarding
nn unselfishness In the use of the courts
has been culled Into strict uso during
tho past few weeks, and so rs soon as
one contingent hud chalked up a game
they gave way to the waiting quar
tet which ever hovered about the
courts. ' '; .
The class of the various players has
not been exhibited In former club con
tests and as h result no handicaps were
possible for the Initial tournament. A
wonderful interest has been manifest
ed In the game since tho club was es
tablished and many ,of those who
B«arccly v possessed the knowledge of
service are now rounded to rattling
good players. As a gymnasium exer
cise the sport is without a peer and
with perspiration flowing from every
pore and muscles looming out from
hitherto flabby arms and legs, the Ath
letic club members havo entered with
zest into the exhilarating pastime.
There nro perhaps four classes of
flayers following the game Rt the local
courts; the topnotchers, those capable
of putting up a fust, clean game, others
rapidly gaining an Insight into the fine
points and those who are learning tho
knack of driving the rubber ball with
out sending the bounding sphere out
of court.
A number of guests are expected and
arrangements have, been made wherebj'
they can secure admittance cards from
the secretary, enablnlg them to securo
seat* in the; gallery.
Thctoumßinrnt will be in the nature
of a round robin affair and every con
testant Will meet each opposing player
before thfc tourney crimes to an end.
Those who will play today nre:
C. L. Moon vs. Adolph Frankel, R.
U Hedderie vs. J. P. Ameatoy (Hed
derle's finish is certain), Frank Gar

LOS ANGELES HERALD: FRIDAY MORNING, JUNE 1, 1906.
WILL SOON HAVE
LEAGUE BASEBALL
ENTHUSIASM FOR NATIONAL
GAMES REVIVES
Eger and Toman Leave for North to
Join Seraph Band Which Has
Been Playing Fast Bsll De«
spite Difficulties
With the various phased of rlngdom
undergoing a thorough discussion It Is
decidedly refreshing to consider the
fuel that Los Angeles is soon to wltneufl
a revival of tho good old national
pastime which, with nil Its troubles nnd
uncertainties, has remained free from
the taint of scandal.
Corney Pcndleton. nctlug in the Inter
est of Pacific Coast lengue officials, nuld
yesterday afternoon that without a
doubt l-ios Angeles would be enjoying
lengue ball within a few weeks.
"With a patched up line-up w« have
been doing wonderfully well In the
north and with the wave of enthusiasm
which had drawn thousands to the
game at Oakland I believe we may go
ihrotiß'h the season without serious loss
If rtny at all."
With the horrors of the San Francis
vo disaster still vividly Impressed upon
their memories the northern baseball
fans are rallying to tho support of the
game and greater crowds than ever
before are daily attending the con
tests nt Idona park.
Those who predicted that bnseball
would be dead in the vicinity of the
metropolis appear to have got off
at the wrong corner, as an increased
attendance has marked the recent
diamond exhibitions of the north.
In th* event of Tom McCarey not de
siring to accept the manegement At
torney Pendleton says that some one
else will be selected to direct the Angel
destinies. MeCarey is waiting to con
fer with Jim Jeffries, who Is expected in
from his Burbank ranch this morning.
The former, however, does not appenr
inclined to assume the management,
owing to a stiff bonus demanded by the
Chutes park people, who ask for 20 per
cent of the gate receipts.
Bobby Kger and Jimmy Toman went
north last night to Join the Seraph
bund. Ross has signified his Intention
of signing wth an outlaw club in Penn
sylvania and may not figure as a mem
ber of the Angel nine. According to
Pendleton. Toaer and Nagle, who
slipped oft to Buffalo, will be brought
back and made to behave as good
Seraphs should.
Brashear and Gray, who Jumped to
the Altoonateam, which Is captained by
Tim Flood, are beyond the jurisdiction
of coast league officials and may play
at their own sweet will with the outlaw
team as long as they deliver an article
of ball in keeping with robber stand
ards. \ : -
• The success of tho. Seraphs In the
north, combined with the sudden re
vival of diamond Interest throughout
California, presents a rosy appearance
for the future of the game and there
is every indication that Los Angeles
lovers of the game will rally with the
same strength of the north when once
again the click of the bat and ball is
heard on local grounds.

TENNIS PLAYERS LACK VIM
The second day's play In the tourna
ment conducted at the Central courts,
In South Pasadena, J>y the Southern
California Lawn Tennis club,- was far
from being as interesting as was the
Initial day's sport. In the first place,
the game did not commence until after
3 p. m., most of the audience dwindling
away before the play began.
The late hour caused the men who
did enter to do so with a lack of vim.
Nevertheless tho matches finally
played were interesting, although
somewhat one-sided, as the scores
show.
Two matches were played, one. open
single and one open doubles. In the
singles. Warland, the popular I and
shifty Harvard university player, met
Henry and defeated him by the score
of 6—2, 6—2. In the doubles the vet
erans Warland and Slnsabaugh were
pitted against Braley and Wayne. I(
was a pretty contest and the audience
on the side lines gave the glad hand
very freely to the many good playa.
The score shows that the winning
streak was with Warland and Sinsa
baugh, 6— 3, .7—5 and 6—l. The tourna
ment continues tomorrow.

PANS DISCUSS
NOLAN'S OF FEB.
Actions of Mexican Ma/ Result in
Disbarment Before Every Club
In Country— Nolan
Figures
The principal topic on the rlalto yes
terday was the startling assertion of
Hilly Nolan Unit he would send Nel
eon against Ilerrera in .the event of
sufficient guarantee being made that
the latter would enter the ring.
Opinion varied regarding the possi
bilities of a future match, mid while
many held that tho men would box to
ft crowded house, others expressed
themselves as certain that Herrera
would not be tolerated. In the event
of Nelson and Herrera being matched
ngaln, Interest would be purely devoid
of sentiment other than n, desire to
witness what might occur after the
terrific strain which has resulted ba
cnuse of Herrera's backdown.
It would be a one-man house, with
Nelson as an Idol and Herrera boxing
before spectators waiting anxiously for
the- Dane to put him away.
The sentiment against Herrera is bo
great that ninny argue tho Mexican
will ne.ver ngaln Recure a match before
'any club in the country. Nolan insists
that unleps Herrera meets Nelson he is
down and cut for good, but would
rather see the Mexican receive hiß final
I trimming fit the hands of the Pane.
The Swede'R manager believes that
the men would draw h greater house,
than ever, if another agreement could
be made, regardless of (he despicable,
trick of the Mexican in crawling from
the first match.
Nolan figures upon the fact that a
deadly animosity such as now exists
would necessarily result in an unparal
leled interest as regarded a future
meeting. McCarey has declared thai
Herrera will never again be given a
chance under the ausptops of the local
club and furthermore that he will en
deavor to have a crimp put upon the
Mexican's aspirations before every club
in the country.
Whether or not a disclosure on the
part of Herrera relative to outside, in
fluences in connection with the recent
deal would place him in a better light
cannot bo conjectured until some, such
admission is forthcoming. At -the
present he stands branded as an in
grate before the public, and his future
is blended with a. doubtful hue.
V GREAT RAILROAD WRECK
i II — • — ' ' ' — I
READ WHY
I A lot of pianos in transit to us were smashed in a wreck. Their makers said :
■ "The pianos are ruined." The railroad companies said: "We're in for it — let's
H settle the best we can."
H When we opened the cases we found thirty-eight instruments reduced to
scrap. Others were scratched here and and there; some badly, the rest very
slightly. But you can see for yourself — they are here before you, in our
salesroom — both the "total wrecks" and the "partially disabled" ones.
i These latter are in fine mahogany, walnut and oak veneers, and a large var-
l iety of styles and sizes.
I In many instances the case is only slightly marred, the interior not hav-
\ ing suffered at all. The railroad companies have paid for all damages, and we
' are offering the lot at the appraised valuation. A little scratch in the varnish,
a little dent in the case, the absence of a bit of moulding, will save you from ,
a third to a half of the ordinary price on a brand new high grade piano. 1

SANTA YNEZ PROJECT IS LARG
EST IN WEST
Company With Los Angeles Capital
Builds Towns and Divide* Tracts.
Railroad Prom Lompoc to
NordHoff
Special to Tim Herald,
SANTA BARBARA, May 31.— The
biggest colonization scheme In the his
tory of the western country was made
public today by filing of Incorporation
papers of the Hun (a Ynez Valley De
velopment company for five hundred
thousand dollars for fifty yeari.
' The directors are B. F. Coons, . F.
Van Vranken, Herbert Burdett, F. H.
Kd wards of Los Angeles and W. F.
Thompson of San Francisco. Others
who nre Interested • In the company
are Fred 'Braden,* R. N. Shackelford,
Charles Hall and C. K. Wantland of
Los Angeled.
For several months tho promoters
have been quietly at work securing
land, not wishing to unveil their mo
tives in order'to secure what they de
sired at as low a price as possible.
Twenty-seven thousand acres were se
cured by the agents of the company
over two months ago, but they have
been "laying low" in order to get five
thousand acres . more which they, de
sired. Their holdings now aggregate
thirty-three thousand acres.'
Plans were made to file Incorpora
tion papers during the latter part -of
April, but the scheme was thwarted
for the time being by the disaster at
San Francisco. '
Plenty of Water
The land consists of some of the
richest acreage In the Santa Ynez val
ley and has enough water to make cul
tivation profitable. The scheme was
started with the Idea of colonizing
only, but this has been changed by the
recent discovery of large amounts of
oil. The land will now be gold to set
tlers for a reasonable sum, but all of
the mineral rights will be reserved.
Colonizing will be done on the
largest scale ever heard of in the west.
The large tract will be divided into
farms of ordinary size.
Towns will bo laid out and lots will
be sold.
The best of rnllrond facilities will be
provided by building a line from
Lompoc to Nordhoff, both of which are
located on the Southern Pacific. While
furnishing good service for the colon
ists this cut-off will lessen the dis
tance from Ventura to Surf, which are
on the coast line of the Southern Pa
cific.
ATTELL AND SOLOMON ANXIOUS
Abe Attell and Kid Solomon are
anxious to get together, but the fa
mous weight question promises to
blast their hopes before the affair is
started. Attell desires that Mr. Solo
mon make 122 pounds, ringside, while
the street merchant does not see where
the proviso will be of material benefit
to him.
The two argued and argued In Mo-
Carey's office yesterday afternoon.
Solomon declaring that he could get
backing for a $1000 Hide bet. Attell
immediately agreed to meet him at
123 pounds, 3 o'clock, should the Kid
be able to furnish so much coin. Sol
omon tried to reach his angel over the
