A REAL WHOPPER.
A Fish Story That Really Beats The
Dutch.
Apro|K>» of the visit here this week
of Joe Magllla. a fish story Is remem
bered In which he once figured. It
Is asserted that one time when stories
were being told around the camp flr<?
of the remarkable fish cr.ught, Joe to*l
of a time when he was fishing from a
boat in a largo lake and caught an ex
ceptionally large fish which ho w*\s
unable to get into the boat. Finally
the boat was rowed ashore with the
fish in tow and after much effort the
fish was hauled up on the bank. Here
Joe abruptly finished Finally one of
the cowpunchers asked Joe what be
came of the fish. Joe replied: “I had
to get it back in the water, when
got it out on the bank the lake went
down sc far that I could not push the
boat back and so I let the fish back
to float the boat.”
Even Wlckwlrle admits that he ha»
nothing to compete with this adven
ture. H. W. Flomer says he has ?
photogiaph of a larger fish, but pho'o
gruphs don't go in any fish story com

THE HERALD. CODY, WYOMING, AUGUST 4, 1911.
STANLEY MEANT CHALLENGE
For Cannon Not Loomis As Stated
In Last Week’s Herald—Editor
Narrowly Escapes Death
By one of those unaccountable er
rors The Herald in publishing the
challenge of Stanley to Cannon last
week the name of Loomis was substi
tuted for that of Cannon.
There was no intention on the part
of Stanley to challenge Mr. Loomis,
nor to annoy or irritate that gentle
man. He was after Cannon. Stanley
is still after him. The Herald believes
he will and can throw the wily little
man from the Emerald Isle.
The feature The Herald regrets
about the error made in using Loomis’
name instead of Cannon's is the troub
le it brought.
Stanley came in The Herald office
with blood in his eye, and it took all
of Friday afternoon to talk him out of
wiping up ye floor with ye editor.
The editor never know that he could
talk so fast and so eloquently as he
did to Stanley. The latter was deter
mined to shed gore but finally he be
gan to smile and then ye scribe knew
that the dove of peace hovered nearbv,
for when Stanley smiles it means that,
he is at peace with the world and ha*
won a victory.
Read his challenge to Cannon—
mind you CANNON.
Tired of the repeated loggings given
him by Cannon and his Powell frienis
Stanley, Cbdy’s favorite, has issued a
challenge to the man he can easily
vanquish and calls him to do battde in
September next.
Stanley said to The Herald, “I issue
this challenge to that Powell man
Cannon, who has been doing so much
talking through the papers. I will
wrestle him for the best two out :>f
three falls, pin falls only to count
Police Gazette Rules to govern with
some exceptions. That is the first
man to call a draw looses the match
then and there, and the winner to take
all the gate receipts and the purse
The match is to take place the laot
of September and no sooner. Now then
let Canron get busy and see who has
