EASTERN OIL MAGNATES
WILL BACK MIKE SCHRECK

Sapulpa, Okla, Mar. 24.-It appears
now that the Morris-Shreck fifteen.
round boxing exhibition to be held
here next Tuesday afternoon will be
the medium of a plunge of oil mag
nate against oil maghate A letter
from an oil operator of Pennsylvania,
who has holdings in the eastern Okla
homa district, writes that a number
are taking advantage of the contest
to see the scrap and view their inter
ests, and incidentally place a little
money behind Schreck, who is doing
his training in Pittsburg. They write
that they saw Norris work here in
one of his early bouts and believe he
is not the man to whip Schreck.
Among the others who are coming
with Schreck are James Murtha, a
backer of the Cincinnati man, and
John Newell, proprietor of one of the
Pittsburg hotels, and all say Schreck
will win and that they will be prepared
to back their man.
Schreck has added Tony Ross to his
training camp. Schreck claims to be
in the best of shape and desires only
more sparring, hence the acquisition of
Ross 1t is probable Ross will accom-
pany Schreck to secure bouts in Okla
homa
Promoter Stone ha sreceived re-
quest from Jimmie Britt, manager of
the Olympia club, London, asking for
reports on the contest, and says even
England is watching Morris progress.
The motion picture company has ar
rived and is planning the various
scenes to be taken before moving out
to the arena. The arena is building
rapidly and will be the largest and
best ever erected for a similar occasion
in this part of the country.
In the Morris camp, Carl is working
his sparring partner Wuest, overtime,
and while Wuest, generally, is a glut-
ton for work, he seys he will be glad |
when Chief Coach Con Riley declares.
Morris cannot box any more. Riley |
says Morris is sure winner but that
he contemplates a hard battle.
The long distance requests for seats
are coming in with the same rapidity, |
md the nearer cities and smaller towns
of the state now are flooding head
quarters, asking for prices and resar-
vations.

This Is My 9th Birthday
GEORGE w. CABLE.

George w. Cable, the noted writer
Of Southern stories, was born in New
Orleans, Oct. IL. 1914, and received
his education in the public schools OF
his native city. At the age Of four
teen he was required, by the death of
his father, to assist in the support of
tho family, and he secured employ
ment In a commercial house. Four
years later, though but q frail youth.
he enlisted in a Confederate cavalry
regiment, and served until the close
Of the war. He then returned to New
Orleans and resumed his counting
room employment, remaining in it al
most continuously for fourteen years.
In the meantime he had written some
short stories of Creole life and the sue
cess with which they met induced him
in 1879 to give up commercial work
and devote himself entirely to litera-
ture. Since then numerous novels
and short stories, almost all of them
portraying Southern life, have come
from his pen and have added to the
reputation which Mr.. Creole estab-
lished with his initial literary effort,
entitled "Old Creole Days"

STEPHENSON
TO Be ExONtRATEO
State Senator Blaine's Accu-
sations Held by Defense
as insufficient.
National News Association

MILWAUKEE, Oct. 12.-Friends of
United States Senator Isaac Stephen
son express confidence today that in
spite Of the expenditure of $l07 900 to
send the aged solon to Washington he
would be vindicated Of the charge of
having obtained his seat corruptly.
Many of the more enthusiastic sup
porters of the aged Senator also be-
lieve that the investigation has re-
suited in a fiasco and will prove
body blow to La Toilette and his fol-
lowers with whom Stephenson has
been fighting for many years.
The Stephenson forces base their
predictions upon the testimony of
State Senator John ]. Blaine who filed
the charges against Senator Stephen
SON. Blaine admitted that he had no
facts or information personally known
to him to be true to substantiate his
charges. He bases his charges large
ly on heresay of political speeches
and editorials.
Senator w. P. Hepburn, who ques-
toned Blaine closely, declared that
steps had been taken to prevent the
blackening of the character of man
on grounds such as Blaine offers.
