Settle Western Championship.

Tomorrow at Madison, Wis, the
universities of Minnesota and Wis
consin will meet on the gridiron and
the former will probably cinch it's
claim to the western championship.
Earl Current will play fullback. In a
review of the work of the team the
Minneapolis Tribune has the follow
ing to say of the Brown county boy:
''Current at fullback will have Sco-
field for an opponent, and of the two
Minnesota has the best man. There
are few fullbacks in the West today
who can compare with the Minnesota
player for general work, for on both
offense and defense, he is very fast
and absolutely fearless. Hammond
certainly was not his equal at bucking
the line, nor did the Michigan player
do half as much work on the defense.
At Champaign Current played the
same consistent game that has marked
his seasons work, and he is consid-
cred as good on the defense as any of
the Minnesota backfeld. At the. be-
ginning it looked as if there was no
place on the team for him, as he was
not punter. By the hardest kind Of
practice and work he has become one
of the stays of the team, and, if he
| were a punter, would be in class by
himself at the position. ~

Fakir Feared the Moose.

A crowd made it warm for medi-
cine fakir on the streets Saturday af-
ternoon. The fellow was selling dope,
and the crowd was doing a rushing
business in the "buy' line, until the
fakir made the mistake of unloading
too much of his product on one pur-
chaser, when there was a pronounced
squeal.~ He sold one man a bottle Of
the cure-all for 81, and shortly after
the purchaser made up his mind that
the stuff was too good to let the other
fellows have it all, so he bought an
other, giving in payment a. SIS bill.
The fakir gave him back four silver
dollars, and then said to him: ''Here,
l am going to make you renowned
among your kind. Give me those four
dollars. - The money was passed up
and the fakir passed him out four
more bottles of dope. But now the
man who feared he would not get
enough of the stuff now thought he
had too much and demanded his mon
ey back. The fakir refused to- 'cough,"
and, as the crowd seemed against him,
ordered his driver to take him to his
hotel; but the crowd swarmed after
him and was on the steps to receive
him. A call went up for some one to
get rope, but the crowd was quieted
by two or three getting part of their
money back, and finally dispersed;
but the fellows business was destroyed
for this trip. The chances are, how
ever, that when he comes this way
again he will find fresh crop of

SETTLED OUT OF COURT
New Ulm Attorneys Make Very Pro-
ffitable Adjustment.

Messrs. Einar Hoidale and H. N.
Somsen went to Window Friday to
appear for the plaintiff in trial be-
fore the Cottonwood county district
court. The title of the action was
Jens Urnes and wife VS.. Nels Erickson
and the action was instituted by the
plaintiffs to recover a quarter section
of land which they decided to Erickson
conditionally. * -.~y..ss.:,.. -
About two years ago Mr.. Urnes,
who is Is years of age, while his wife
is one year younger, decided to cease
active work and arranged with Erickson
to deed to him 40 acres of land south
of Lamberton in Cottonwood county
if he would agree to support and
clothe them for the remainder OF their
lives. To this Erickson agreed but
after living with his family ninemonths
the aged couple became dissatisfied
with the manner in which he was
carrying out his part of the contrac
and left. - ~"
Later they brought suit to set aside
the conveyance and the case was set
for last week. After it had gone to
trial the attorneys for the defendant,
Stewart & Glover of Window, signifed
willingness to settle the difficulty and
the New Ulm lawyers agreed to accept
the sum of 81, 800 and give Erickson a
clear title to the property.
