So We Hear

And still the sport public is anxious to know just how many times Willard actually hit the floor in that first round. First, announcement is made that the fight pictures were shown at Cleveland, showing five clean knock downs for Dempsey in that first setto. Fight fans had about made up their mind to accept that as almost suf- ficient" when along comes another dispatch saying that the official fight pictures shown at Toledo showed that the former champion 'bit the dust" seven times. Either is almost suf- ficient.
 Tommy Chapple and Louis Garcia, the Los Angeles bantamweights who fought six rounds at Arcadia hall last Friday night, Chapple getting a deci- sion, will go four rounds before the Arizona club Saturday night, it, was unofficiaIly announced last night The boys are fast, experienced boxers and should put up a good exhibition.
 Not only is there talk of a Los An geles- Phoenix road race this fall as a part of the fair program, but plans are also being considered for an Fl Paso- Phoenix road race. TWO such events would undoubtedly attract all the famous auto race drivers of the country.
 Wonder what Jim Jeffries, James J. Corbett and a few other notable ring opponents are thinking about these days. It will be remembered that Jeffries, Corbett. ct al, picked Willard to give Dempsey a sound tracing in the July Fourth fiasco. It's great to be popular Maybe they're planning an | other hunting trip.

Bill Wambsganss, quiet second

Wamby was never suspected of being a slugger bold until he got started few weeks ago and in two weeks was hitting at 400 clip and leading the league. Although he slipped below 400 he continued to lead the circuit. Unless he slumps he'll be among the leaders for some

Our idea of a thrilling pastime-A Tempe Phoenix bicycle race with the thermometer lowering around the l10 mark.
 Evidently, the suggestion for the establishment of a fish censor, as made by this 'kolum" very recently, escaped the gaze of the duly authorized of ficials. We heard one yesterday that just naturally over shadowed any thing ever heretofore flung 10 the four winds.

TO THE FRIENDS OF LIEUT..
GOV. LEE Nj. RUSSELL

AS you no doubt know, Lee M.
Russell has conducted as hard and
strenuous campaign as he could for
Governor. He is, as you know, a
poor man, having sold his home at
Oxford IN order to make the race for
Governor. AS he has been in pub
lie life for twelve years, serving four
years in the House of Representa-
tives from Lafayette County, and I
wears in the State Senate, and is now
finishing his term as Lieutenant Gov
ernor of the State, devoting twelve
years of his life to the service of the
people, he has not been able to accu-
mulate any money, and so TODAY he
is without an money at all. All he
possesses in this world is good
health, good name, a good mind, a
Christian character, his excellent
wife and his law library.
We are calling upon his friends all
over the state to contribute TO his
campaign expenses. We do not
want great deal of money, we
simply want enough to pay certain
legitimate expenses of the campaign,
such as stamps, necessary office help,
stationery and literature. We feel
sure that his friends everywhere will
respond.
Lee M. Russell is making a fight
for the great mass of the people OF
Mississippi for good government, for
pelpetuation of the rights OF the
the people to vote, and to have the
government restored. to the people.
Lee M. Russell believes that the
people should absolutely run this
government, and he believes in and
has an abiding faith in the people OF
Mississippi.
He will appreciate very much IN
deed any contribution which his
friends will send in, and, as we have
stated above, we do not care for any
large campaign funds, all we want Is
some money to meet the legitimate
expenses Of the campaign.
Please send in your contribution at
once.
Sincerely yours,
RUSSELL CENTRAL CAMPAIGN
COMMITTEE.

LAWN FETE

Tuesday afternoon the Lewa Camp
fire Girls gave lawn fete.
The gypsy fortune teller was Miss
Gertrude MilGen, and she told the
fortunes in very charming and
weird manner. Many hoped that
what she said would come true in
the future.
The side Show was very interest
ing. Since in there could be seen
many things which had never been
seen in Oxford. Among these were
the famous RAINBOW Division, Ty
Cobb. the orld-famous baseball
player and the oldest piece of furni-
ture, the multiplication table, the
Belgium Belle, the swimming match
and the wonderful bridal scene.
Delicious candy, cakes, ice-cold
watermelons and ice cream and sher-
bet were sold by the girls.
A victrola was played during the
evening and the music was enjoyed
by all.
The girls cleared over twenty-five
dollars from the proceeds.

Baxter Wiley has bought the J.

John Herndon for his home which is

1t is rumored that all the shacks
on South street from Harkins' mill to
Tates store will be removed and a
beautiful brick block erected instead.
This is merely a report, but as this
property belongs to parties who can
well afford to make the improvements
it is believed that the rumor will be-
come reality in the near future. 1t
is said that in event this is done
big automobile concern will occupy
the entire building, which will be the
largest garage in the State.
Many inquiries are being received
for rental property in Oxford. At
present there are 70 vacant houses of
any cription-business or resi-
dence, and there is great need for
more business houses aid more resi-
dences.

THE CAMP MEETING.

The annual Camp Meeting which
has been convening at the OXFORD
camp ground for forty successive
years, closed out Thursday evening OF
last week after running six Gays.
The meeting was unusually sweet
this session, as so much of cloud and
suspense that characterized the last
meeting had vanished and the people
came together with thankful and re-
joicing hearts giving God the praise
for surcease from strife and his Won
derful keeping power and tender pro-
lection thru the past twelve strenu-
Gus months. Bros. Word, of Boone
vile, Woodland, of Oxford, and Hop
per of Abbeville, all did helpful and
splendid preaching-and the song and
prayer services were unusually sweet
and enjoyable.
We feel that much good was ac-
complished in spite Of the election
which always has a demorallzlng ef-
feet upon meetcg of this kind.
The old Camp Ground is getting
into bad state Of repair, but those
who love the spot, are enthusiastical-
ly determined to beautify it and put
it into better repair than since its
existence. Committees have been
appointed and it is confidently ex-
pected that the old Oxford Camp
Ground will take new life and de-
velop into "tower of strength" as a
community center, and become what
it was designed to be from its begin
ming, "a place of beauty and a joy
forever" to the children of men.

RUSSEL['S VOTE IN
STATE WAS 1855
TO THE PUBLIC:

You have heard numerous rumors
and perhaps have seen statements as
to what the vote was in the first pri-
mary. Lee M. Russell is now with
out question the leading candidate
for Governor, as we stated he would
be before the first primary, and we
feel sure the people are going to
elect him.
The vote in the first primary that
we have received up to date is as
follows:
Russell .......... 49,165
Johnston ........ 36,422
Longino ......... 29,74S
Collins ........... 29,492
The above shows Russell with a
lead of practically $4,000 votes. This
lead over Johnston by the help of
you, the people of Mississippi, will be
increased many times on the 26th of
August.
We want to thank you, the people,
for the magnificent way in which
you worked and voted for Lee M.
Russell, and we know you did this
because you knew he stood for the
best and highest things in the gov
ernment and for the best interests of
the people of Mississippi.
