CAUSE OF SCRAP

Yesterday afternoon the Hartman
boy, who last Saturday night was
beaten up as the result of a poker
game, told the story of the escapade
to John c. Lewis, sheriff, it being the
first time since his injuries that he
has been in a condition to speak but
a few sentences az a time.
Young Hartman stated that last Sat

from Ninnekah in a wagon with some
other men. Enroute he caught up
with the man who later administered
him such beating. The man, he said.

ride. He had been picking cotton for
Ed Mutz and stated that he was re-
turning to the Mutz place where he
would spend Sunday and continue
picking Monday morning.
In the course of their conversation
he said that he had intended to go to
Chickasha to get into a game and
Hartman asked him il he ever won
any money. He replied that some
times he won and sometimes he lost.
Arriving near the Mutz and Hartman
places, Young Hartman and the un-
known disembarked and started to
cover the remaining distance on foot.
When not far from the Mutz place,
they stopped, and going into a canon,
started in a poker game. 1t was al

The capitulation Of the Germans at

a brilliant infantry charge by the
British and Japanese troops, released
the entire Japanese fleet and other

they have a naval base somewhere in
that vicinity.
This base must be demolished and
the German warships either captured

 FAMOUS VICTORY OVER KING


 lem Mace becalne the heavyweight champion Of the world ffty-two years ago today. when he defeated Tom King in a hard-fought battle near London. Mace had claimed the title in 1861 by reason of his defeat of Sam Hurst, but Tom King disputed his right to the honor. So aS match was arranged between the two men, with the belt and a. purse of $1,000 as the prize for the victor. Many noble and wealthy .sportsrnen of London were gathered about the ringside on that January in 1862 when the premier titleg of pugilism was to be decided. King fought gamely, and he had "a distinct advantage in height and weight, but he was no match for his clever and shifty opponent The vel low streak of which Mace had prev iously been accused did not show in that bout, and Jem took a lot, of pun isrrnent before King finally succunb- ed ih the 42nd round
 The following year King challenged Mace for a return match. and lem ac-. cepted The second bout was held in November. 1883, and this time King. was the victor.
