Benson Sports Sold Again.,

ION Thursday evening a fight to a
finish will be put on at the Paris
Hotel between we'll bred bulldog
and a wild Wisconsin badger. The
fight will be on the @. T. >"
The above is a notice which did
not appear in print but the con-
tents OF which were quitely passed
around last week among the sport
ing fraternity in our reighboring
town, Benson. The @. T. an
nouncement brought crowd P. D.
Z. and on the evening appointed a
large number of 1.-THE element"
quietly handed over their quarter
and silently took their places on the
"bleachers'' around an improvised
arena where the bloody battle was
to occur. Passenger train No. 3
arrives; committee receives the
fierce animal and takes it to the
waiting fighting sport. But on
the way something happened and
in some way unknown an exchange
took place. The nature Of the ex-
change was not made known to
those "on the inside and so they
prepared carefully for the great
and grand coming together. The
master of ceremonies mounts a
chair, holding in his hand one end
OF string at the other end of
which, safely slowed away in a
bag. the fierce animal is stirring
up his badger blood to Ego it" for
the glory Of Wisconsin, while on
the other side of the center chalk
line the owner is giving his bull
dog some quiet tips on his oppo-
nent's probable method of attack.
The great moment has arrived.
SolemnIy the count is given and
the master of ceremonies aforesaid,
formerly a Willmar tonsorial artist,
viciously pulls the string. But the
badger is reluctant and does not re-
spond. ''Pull harder,'' shout the
anxious spectators. now keyed up
to an Unsuitable demand for blood.
The m. c. pulls harder and out
comes the ANIMAL" not fierce,
bloodthirsty Wisconsin badger at
all but brown, widemouthed JUG.
What howl goes up from the en-
ragged bulldog and his hackers!
What names are exchanged! Then
the mob turns on the gatekeeper.

Tinhorn sports, - and equally

the man with the money "had

The question now is, why didn't
the Benson authorities stop the
fight" before the money was paid
out? Some of them must have
been in town all day.

RUDOLPH BERG

The funeral Of j. Rudolph Berg
whose death was mentioned in last
weeks Tribune. occurred last Sat.
urday afternoon. Services were
conducted by Rev. ] N. Andersen
both at the house and at the Synoc
church. where large number Of
friends of the deceased gathered tt
pay their last respects to the de.
parted. The floral offerings were
many and beautiful. Among then
was a standing wreath of assorted
flowers, inscribed ''Y. P. S." from
the Young Peoples Society. The
following acted as pail bearers
Herman Tallakson. Edgar Sather
w. T. Markhus, Olof Thorpe, Law.
renee Thorpe and Ole johnson.
The remains were inferred in the
Synod cemetery.
Among those who attended the
funeral from out of town were Al.
bert Berg, a brother Of the de.
ceased, of Nebraska, and an uncle.
Rev. N. l. Berg of Finton, la.
The death of Rudolph Berg was
one of the saddest which has oc.
Cured in our community. He was
taken sick on Saturday, Aug. 8,
while playing game of tennis.
The physician SUNNI oned pro
nounced the case to be one of ap-
pendicitis, and on Sunday morning
the sick man was removed to the
Willmar hospital, where an opera
tion was performed. But it. was
too late. The appendix had been
ruptured. resulting in general peri
tonitis, and soon the sufferer be-
gan to sink. Death occurred on
Wednesday morning at nine o'clock.
Rudolph knew that death was in
evltable, but he was prepared.
Shortly before his soul left the
body he commenced to sing an old
wellknown Lutheran hymn, and he
died with a smile on his lips.
Rudolph Berg was born in Ne
braska on June II, 1885, and he
was thus a little over % years OF
age at the time Of his death.
About five years ago he removed
here when his parents bought a
farm. He was student at Luther
