Miss Virgie Nordberg John Steel of Lark Dies of Pnemuonia ! fff To-da-y we mourn the irrepar- - able loss of an intimate and es- -' teemed friend, a man whose 'I word was his bond, who believ- -' i ed in no creed or sect, but whose t 4 daily endeavour was to live up to ' J the motto of the Golden Rule, in treating others as he would wish ; : to be treated. He was of slight ' stature, but beneath tliat small , frame there beat a manly heart . that many men twiqe his size A would do credit to possess, lie J was a man in every sense of the , word and in the good old days t when home parties were more J prevalent in the little town ot I I Lark his vocal selections such as "Bold Robert Emmett," "John Peel" and many songs of his boyhood were always appreciat- - itJ ed by his friends, and tney were i legion.

DEMPSEY IN BINGHAM Some twenty days after tak-ing unto himself a bride, Jack Dempsey the world's heavy weight champion, was so elated that he decided he would give his old-tim- e friends in the min-ing town of Bingham a chance to look over the sweet little miss of his choice, Miss Ida Estelle Taylor, and on Friday last vis-ited here and took in some of the sights of the camp. This popular couple were mar-ried at San Diego California, on Saturday February 7th by the Rev. Wallace Hamilton at the First Presbyterian Church of that city. The witnesses at the marriage were Joe Benjamin, light weight boxer, Miss Helen Taylor, sister of the bride, Mrs. C. Dempsey, mother of the cham champion for a donation to the Boy Scout Drive, which is being made in Bingham. He imme-diately replied "Certainly" and appended his name to the sub-scription list. He also purchas-ed a ticket for the basket ball hop which was given the same evening but admitted it would not take him long to get broke if he contributed so judiciously as some people thought he should do. The party then mov-ed to the Town Hall, where they awaited a photographer, a crowd soon gathered which was notic-ed by Oliver Ball, Proprietor of the U. S. Cafe, who on learning the cause went over to the Town Hall and shook hands with the champion, with whom he had cat-fish- ed many times on Utah pion and Eddie Connors, Joe Benjamin's manager. If the wedding date had been moved up four times one can't deny but what Jack was doing right when he grabbed her quick ly, as she is a petite charming little lady, and from every dem-onstration in Bingham Jack is really and truly proud of her. On arriving in Bingham and af-ter parking his car in 'the Bing-ham Garage the Goldsworthy jit ney was procured and the party who also included his mother and sister headed towards the Utah Copper Hill where they took in the sights. On account of the icy condition of the road to Copperfield traveling in a car is not pleasant as a dusty Calif-ornia road and the champion's wife admitted she was in no-ways anxious for a repetition of the trip as she said, "Why our car was sliding sideways, all the way up and down." On returning to the Garage where their car had been parked the party was met by Postmas-ter Boyd Barnard and George Greathouse, who tackled the Lake. The party were then in-vited to partake of a luncheon at the U. S. Cafe which they did. On learning the champion was in town Mrs. Jim Carter with whom Dempsey used to board while employed at the Highland Boy mine some twelve years ago came to the restaurant to con-gratulate the champion 'on his success, not only as a boxer but as a wife getter. She was warm ly received, introduced to the party and joined them with their luncheon. In speaking of his former landlady's ability as a cook he remarked to his wife, "Her cousin Jack pasties would make your mouth water, dear." Many of the miners with whom he was associated with when he worked in Bingham were recog-nized by him and in most cases he, was in a position to call them by their first names, a feat we consider remarkable on realiz-ing the thousands of people he has met during his absence from Bingham. On asking his wife if she-woul- permit him to have another fight she said at one (Continued on Page Five) Basket Ball The Bingham High School Basketeers still retained their unblemished record on Friday evening last when they won a game from the Grantsville quint to the tune of 39 to 24.
