Guthrie News: Two slick dead game
sports weighed large stone that has been
lying in the rear of the Blue Bell saloon
for some time and carefully placed it back
in the same place. They were observed,
however, by other parties who were onto
their game. They broke about ten pounds
off the rock and weighed it again. Later
on the sports proposed to bet on the weight
of the rock, not observing that it had been
broken. Early this morning they were
discovered down at the depot trying to
butt freight car off the track. Ninety
five dollars was the amount of their losses.
