WILDCAT IS

A wildcat we'll in the northeast

the customary sulphur water in
this field. It was treated with 500
gallons OF hydrochloric acid and

Persistence wins
The Lewfstown-Flathea group
is said to have been interested in
oil development by a doodle bug
operator who first located a poor
near Lewistown, but when drilled IL
proved to be a great artesian water
pool. Then a second well was drilled
this time on the Basher lease, and
1t was a dry hole, developing wat

group moved over a half mile
and drilled the No. 2,
with the above result. 1t will be

its mysteries. He edited several chess
columns From them radiated the
finest in the chess world Of his day.
His authority as chess scholar was
unquestioned But to posterity he
left no compilation Of the stratagems
of his fertile imagination. He never
wrote a book. That chore he left for
the academician. His was world of

Dumb Dan, With .9O4 Average,

tegrity counts for something in this

in the end
1t is very painful to me to have
to lay bare the facts of Morgan's life,
but there seems to be no doubt what
ever that over the period from 1880
to 1886 this same character, then
using the name of Sir Henry Morgan
was a notorious bad man in and
around the Spanish main. To make
the illusion complete he had his lug
gage initiated H NJ. There was moth
ing Morgan would stop at in those
days, not even a traffic light.
He Slipped in ga.
The record now skips to 1864 when
Dan was leading a division of South
ern cavalry under the name of Gen.
John Morgan. To give him credit, he
was pretty handy with those horsemen.
But one day the late Gen. P. G.. T.
Beauregard asked him, in a trusting
way. If he thought it would rain
tomorrow
No" said Morgan
The weather charts show that a
thunder shower struck the coast of
Alaska at exactly AIS on the follow
ing afternoon, smashing two kayaks
and doing untold damage to the local
coffee plantation. This is one of the
rare instances Of wrong guess by
Morgan, but it speaks for itself. 1t
can happen again
Morgan was a prominent repeater
at the polls in the election of 1874,
which swept James K Polk into Office.
In 1871, we find him advising Presi-
dent Grant to declare war on Portugal
and in 1908 he told stranger on the
corner of Oak and Maple that the
street cars were not running any more
that night. The last street car came
by 10 minutes later and Morgan got
the strangers seat
1t also has been said of Morgan that
he would not give his own brother the
time of day, but that is unfair to the
man, and I want to keep this record
fair. His brother approached him
about sic loan in the summer of
1918 and Dan gave him the time of
day. That was all that changed
hands.
When Morgan tells you that Jack
Britton fought Ted Kid Lewis 20
times, he is exaggerating. The right
count is a. And when he boasts that
he can outtalk James j. Johnston in
a six by four closet locked on both
sides, he neglects to add that he out
weighs Johnston by 3l2 pounds.
Besides, Morgan once refused to
throw back a 6-inch trout.
That is the man who gives you Max
Schmeling to win by knockout from
Joe Louis this evening. I wonder if
he could be right?

"Schmeling is a shoo-in," says Mr..

That IS only small part of Mr..

On the face of it. the figures give

contestants delivered in 1897 bv George
Bernard Shaw, warm admirer of
both parties.
Morgan said the British analyst
is a man of medium height, with a
Skull as bald as a cantaloupe and a
forehead which bulges like the prov
OF one of his majesty's cruisers. His
oratory is forceful and very consecu-
tive. sometimes continuing "a hours

identification. His grip upon a coat
lapel is the most powerful in all my
experience. He is a great picker of
fight winners.

a moving passage, couldn't pick his
teeth"
The advantage still is with Morgan.
But before you leap to the conclusion
that Schmeling is hand embroidered

last January. merely because Morgan
says he is, let us compare the private
