JOE RIVERS SAYS HE WILL
KNOCK OUT JOHNNY KILBANE
Los Angeles, Aug. 23. —Joe Rivera,
the .Mexican wonder, is training hard
er for his championship battle with
Johnny Kilbane of Cleveland, schedul
ed for Labor day, than for any bout
in which he has yet participated. He
does not hesitate to say that he will
defeat Kilbane and says, furthermore,
that he will knock him out inside the
twenty rounds.
Rivers said today: “I can beat all
those Eastern fighters, for I have
figured out their style, which Is a
great deal alike with all of them. They
don’t know how to hit from the should
er and I never need be afraid of then
blows. I learned this In my bouts
with Kilbane and Coster. Both or
these boys landed on me several times
in every round and neither of them
hurt me in the least. In fact, I have
been hit harder in my training stunts
right along.
•When I fight Kilbane on Labor day
I will go right Into him and pay no
attention to his blows. I will just take
all he has got and whenever I land
one on him he is going to feel it. It
he is there at the end of the twentieth
round I will be a surprised boy.”
Kilebane is taking things easy,, but
will get down to hard work in a day
or so. He is looking flene and strong,
having taken Patsy Kline. On being
told what Rivers said today, Kilbane
said: "I’m glad to know that the
Mexican means to come right after
me. I always did like that sort of a
game. It will make It easier for me.
But 1 don’t take a lot of stock in that
line of dope, for no fighter can tell
how he Is going to fight until he gets
into the ring. I will be much better
this time than when Rivers and I met
last spring.”
JACK DENNY.
One hundred and five and 107
pounds, will challenge any boy in
I Billings at the weight. Address Gen
I eral Delivery, Jack Denny.

BUFFALO BILL PRAISES AUTO
FOR HIS PERSONAL USE
The Herald is indebted to Glenn
Barron for the following extract from
the Times-Republlcan of Marshall
town, lowa, touching the superior
merits of the Buick car for which D.
E. Hollister and Mr. Borron are the
Cody agents:
To the fertile mind of “Buffalo Bill'
is accredited a novel automobile en
durance demonstration. “Buffalo Bill”
has been a pioneer in many things, he
pacified the Indians, made away to
civilization for the white man, and
ever since he has studied the most
modern improvements that would fit
the needs of all concerned. Out west
Colonel Cody saw the advent of the
railroad train, now he anticipates that
by huving his representative use an
automobile to make all the towns In
which the show plays.
Mr. Winch leaves the exhibition
every afternon and drives his own ca
to the next town. So far this season
he has driven over 18,000 miles, and
claims he can make better connec
Hons and time than on a railway train.
Mr. Winch uses a Buick ear. Tuesday
nfternoon he left Des Moines at 3 p.
m. and arrived at Marshalltown short
ly after 6. He does no racing, at
tempts no now records but is using
the machine as a convenience. Winch
may be justly styled the champion en
durance driver of the world. In 18. j
000 miles ho has never missed reach j
ing hfs next tpwn on time.
OUR SOLDIER BOYS AT CAMP
CODY UOS HOLD THEIR OWN
NEWS FROM TENTED FIELD
Camp Carey, Wheatland, Wyo., Aug j
23. —Wheatland may well be called the
land flowing with milk and honey.
Rich cream and fresh honey brought
into camp on Thursday strengthened
the men and sweetened their comrade
ship. Should a foreign foe invade the I
land he would discover another char
acteristic of the bee dominant in the i
National Goard, and that is the sting. !
Sham Battle.
About 2 o’clock there was a real
sham battle. It lasted for about an
hour. Certain trenches and strategic
points along the great ditch were se
lected as places to be secured, to br*
captured and to be fortified. Both
sides fought bravely, and neither sur
rendered. It resulted in a drawn en
gagement.
Major Cavender and Major Mentzei
handled their troops in a creditable J
manner in this battle.
While there has been much criti- '
cism of the men doing the close ran;c ,
wrork, it when it came to skirmish I
lines and the loose formation the men j
did better than even the experts had ;
anticipated.
Regimental Parade.
At 5 o'clock on Thursday there was
a regimental parade, the first of tts
kind in the history of the regiment.
The regiment was out in full force,
and while mistakes were made, yet ir
is remarkable that with only four
days’ training the regiment could
move with such ease and stateliness.
There is much room for improvement,
but the men are ready to improve.
Enjoyed a Smoker.
The Benedicts’ club of Wheatland J
tendered a pleasant smoker in honor
of the officers of the National Guard
on Thursday evening. Practically all j
of the officers atended. dressed in i
their best camp regimentals. The j
Hunton boys furnished the music and
Colonel Sliney was the wit of tne
evening. A male quartette, consisting
of R. G. Strandberg, J. W. Coons,
C. Arnot and G. F. Coons, of company
D, Basin, rendered some war music
which was quite appropriate and was
heartily encored.
