COLORED MEN
in Big MIX-UP
SATURDAY MITE

Two coloTed men who gave their
names as Ollie Warren and Fred
Gentry became engaged in an argu-
ment over fifty cents on Saturday
night of last week in a Japanese pool
hall on Front street which resulted
in Ollie Warren receiving a long
knife cut on the left side of his
throat. The case was tried before
Justice of the Peace Watson on Mon
day afternoon and Gentry was SEN
fenced to serve six months in the
county jail.
The story as given to the city of
Ulcers was that Warren owed Gentry
fifty cents and Gentry was intent
IN making the collection. The men
began to argue and finally a pool cue
was brought into action and in some
manner II was pushed through the
window in the door. The men were
put out of the building and they
took W the argument again on the
sidewalk in front OF the pool hall.
II is believed that Gentry drew n
pocket knife from his pocket and
made n long cash along the left side
of Warren's throat. Although the
cut was not very serious. had It gone
n fraction Of an inch deeper Il would
have caused the death OF the man.
DIR. Barber was called Immediately
and he dressed the wound. Warren
was able to be up and around again
on Monday.
Immediately after the fight Gentry
was arrested and placed In Jail on a
charge Of assault and battery. on
Monday before the Justice OF the
Peace Gentry plead guilty and was
sentenced to serve six months in the
county jail. AS II viii be remember
ed, Gentry figured in a miN-up about
two months ago when, II Is reported
that while intoxicated he hit his wife
over the head with a milk can. max
ing n deep cut across her scalp. He
was arrested At the time and served
some time In the county Jail.
When released from the present
sentence II is believed that Gentry
will be asked 10 leave the city.

Attacked Joe
Weimer But Failed
In Attempt to Rob

o Weimer of this city, who lives
in the 900 block West Cedar street,
suffered two scalp wounds and a torn
ear shortly after eleven O'Clock on
Wednesday night, December Gath.
when a man jumped out from behind
a wagon in his yard and beat him
over the head with some kind of a
weapon. Weimer was stunned but
shortly recovered and began Crap
ping with the man and at the same
time began yelling for help. Several
lights in the houses surrounding
Weimer's home were turned on and
the thief, becoming frightened, broke
from Weimer's grip and ran.
Weimer, who has several teams of
horses and does some contract work,
reports that he went home that night
about eleven o'clock and as he was
about to 20 into his house he noticed
the barn door was open. Evidently
the thief opened the door, knowing
hat Weimer would notice it being
open and would close it before he
went to bed. AS Weimer went past
a wagon, to close the barn door. a
man who he described as being tall
and wearing a hat, jumped from be-
hind the wagon and began beating
him over the head. Although he
was momentarily stunned, he soon
regained consciousness and began
ighting the man. Weimer's yells
aroused several of the neighbors and,
as stated, the turning on of their
lights caused the would be thief to
flee without having taken any OF
Weimer's valuables.
DR.. Swisher IA called Immediate
ly and dressed the mans wounds.
Although Weimer had on a heavy
Scotch cap, two deep cuts were made
in his head and his right ear was
badly torn. Six stitches were taken
TO close up the scalp wounds.

In addition to building activities of
the past year Rawlins has progressed
even further in other ways. For the
first time in the history of the city
we have n real, functioning Chamber
of Commerce, an organization which
has already done much for the city
and which in future years will do
ven more.
Business in all lines has been ex-
cellent and businessmen in Rawlins
are said to have enjoyed the best
business throughout the year of any
city in Wyoming.
Construction and operation of the
p. C r. refinery at Parco has brought
many workmen into this section and
has distributed an immense amount
of money in Rawlins. While the con
struction work at the refinery is
practically completed the operation
will necessitate the employment of a
large force OF workmen at all times.
The excellent condition in which
the wool business finds itself at the
present t'.he has done much for the
city and the encouraging outlook for
the future has inspired those en-
| gagged in this important industry to
increased activity.
Despite the wonderful showing
made by Rawlins in 1924 the year
1925 holds even more in store for
her. The program as outlined for
1926 includes the testing of several
new oil structures in the vicinity OF
the city: the paving of the business
district: the completion of the grad
ed and surfaced highway to Lander
and Casper; the paving of the high
way between Rawlins and Parco, and
the construction of n great many
business houses and residences.
