Mckee Pleaded Guilty.

Oliver W. Mckee, the Benson veter-
mary surgeon, appeared before Judge
Lochren today, pleaded guilty to using
a cancelled postage stamp and was
fined 800, which he paid. Mckee was
arraigned at the last term of the<U. S.
district court, but asked time to return
to Benson and get the amount of his
fine before pleading. The permission
was granted and Mckee went. He
failed to show up when his case was
called and bench warrant was issued.
Until deputy marshal appeared on
the scene Mckee seemed to think the
matter a joke. He wrote once to the
district attorneys office enclosing $50
part payment on his fine. The official
replied that he could not fix his own
fine but must appear in court. Nc
Kee ignored the letter but wrote
|. again, enclosing aseheck for $50 and
saying that he wished they would stop
bothering him. -,,y :. Il:
When pleading guilty before Judge
Lochern Mckee tried to explain that
the use of the Cancelled stamp was an
accident, but Asst. Dist. Atty Dickey
pointed out that the government had
proof of five distinct offences and the
Judge ignored the excuse e.-Minneapo-

Benson Wins Game,

The game Saturday afternoon be-
tween the Willmar and Benson high
school football teams was warmly
contested and. the, home boys have
reason to feel happy. Although their
opponents had played more games
and had an unbroken string of VICTOR
les, they met them successfully and
defeated them by the score of to a.
At the start the visitors swept every
thing with rush and almost had the
Benson boys off their feet, but as they
steadied down and Bjorn and Francis
got in one or two end runs they gained
in confidence and their opponents on
ward rush was stopped and both
struggled for the ball. Finding them
selves once within distance, Willmar
kicked for goal which was successful
and gave them 4, but this was their
only score for they were never near
enough to Benson's goal line to try it
again.
| In the second half Benson got to
work in earnest, made their downs
with frequency and soon made touch
down at the north goal and a short
time afterward had pushed to within a
few feet of the south goal, butt here
