0 TRAIN JESS ‘STARTED FIGHT FOR THE SAME REASON HE WENT TO WAR, WAYN DECLARES ‘ , “I did the same thing that any i ; jother red-blooded man would have Former Trainer Stands Up for! Willard on Charge of ‘“Fake;” Will Go to Lawrence to Box Giant Into Shape. That Jess Willard has finally, se- Tiously considered defending his title in a battle with Jack Dempsey is evi- dent from the announcement received in Casper Saturday by “Fighting Jack’? Hemphill, requesting him to lammediately appear at the cham- pion’s home in Kansas preparatory to going. into intensive training in Texas. The telegram received by Hemphill announced that he would be-expected to get the champion into shape for the battJe with Dempsey. This is possibly the first definite statement received from the cham- pion of his intention to fight and prob- ably will be the culmination of the preliminary action that will finally see him pitted in the ring against Dempsey. According to recent sporting an- nouncements Tex Rickard who is making a strong bid to promote the fight has already definitely secured a location for the fight over a “long route” but that he is not ready yet to make an announcement until he gets expression from the principals in the affair. Hemphill, it will be remembered by many Casperites, was one of Wil- lard’s principal managers and train- ers before he won the championship from Jack Johnson. He has also boxed and trained extensively with Dempsey and knows the “bearcat’s” wealmess and eccentricities. “Williard won the fight because he was a better man, and it is almost a certainty that he will surprise all his knockers when he beats Dempsey at their meeting. He is a fighter of true worth and will show himself as a real champion against Dempsey’s on- slaughts.” ARRANGEMENTS MADE TO COMPLETE WINONA WELL The trustees of the Powder River Syndicate from information received from the president, Geo. C. Davis, are arranging to let a contract for the, completion of ““Winona’s” well and to drill other wells in the Powder River field. . Powder River is commencing to be- come a scene of activity and it is the opinion of many; that a‘ largé nutn- ber of drilling outfits will be working &$ soon as the weather settles, whicn will ‘mean, that if a well is brought in by the syndicate or by any other eperating company, there will be a Tugh for leases. +7 It is the firm belief of a number ef.oil men that Powder River will soon become the sensation of the Wyoming gil fields, which will meanmore pros- perity for our city of Casper. : —_——- 1 Fred C.

Bldg., Room 214 Casper, Wyoming PURE WOOL done when he saw a brute striking @ woman,” is the explanation James Wryn, a soldier with a gold service stripe on his sleeve, makes in con- nection with his fight with Jas. Burk, which resulted in Wryn being knock- ed down and stabbed once in the néck and once in the side. i it Wryn wishes, however, to have plainly understood that he nev tended to, interfere in a fami! rel, but that it made no difference as to the details when he saw a man striking a woman, and gives the fol- lowing story as his version of the trouble that led to his being stabbed: |, With several friends, I weut to ithe Cooks and Waiters dance in the |Moose Hall. Early in the evening I! jnoticed Burk, as I later learned his jname to be, having trouble wilh a woman. “About 1 o’clock I went out into the alcove and saw the man strike the woman a blow in the mouth. ‘tie fellow Cooper was standing by and never interfered. As Burk appeared 'to be ready to strike again I told him to cut it out or that I would make it my affair. “Cooper warned me to stay of the quarrel or that he wo get me. That made no difference so when Burk struck again I tackled him. Cooner interfered and he and I went to the mat. I easily overpowered him and was merely holding him until he cooled off when Burk having ap- out parently temporarily settled his 4iffi- 2 culties with the woman kicked me in the head. | “The next thing I remember I was standing on my feet and Cooper had me by the htroat. Someone grabbed |Cooper and told him to cut it out as I had been cut. I didn’t know I! jhad been cut. I didn’t know I had been stabbed or who cut me but! jsome people there took care of me until the doctor arrived. | “It wasn’t a question of butting jinto a family affair. I didn’t know | elther of the people and last of all) | didn’t know that they were man and | wife. I interfered for the same pur- pose that thousands of us went away to war, in behalf of humanity.” —— TRIBE OF BEN HUR PLANNED IN THIS CITY Mrs. David Boyd of Laramie, depu- | ty state organizer for the Tribe of ‘Ben Hur, with Mrs. R. C. Lacomb, the local deputy, is working to or- ganize a local court of the order.: There are courts ht present at’ Chey- enne and Laramie and during the next week or two that Mrs. Boyd remainy here she hopes to line up enough can didates to insure a separate court for Casper.
