SIXTEEN ] INNING
BASE BALL GAME
High School Team Still Keeps
Brilliant Record of Eleven
@@ Straight Victories,

Yesterday afternoon, in the best
game ever seen in Willmar the high
School base ball team closed their
season by defeating the Town team
by a score of 4 to 3 in 16 innings.
From the first it was seen that the
game would be close as both pitch
ers were in great form and the sup
port was fair. .~> - .
The town team was the first to
score. getting one run in the second
on successive doubles by ''Buck"
johnson and Downs. Then both
pitchers went along until the sixth
when the town team got couple
more bases on balls, a stolen
base. hit by M. Johnson and Ro-
wells long single to right center.
The High School scored three in the
seventh on a couple of hits mixed
in between some errros and stolen
bases. From then until the 18th
there was nothing doing for either
team, altho the High School had
men on bases in every inning ex-
cept the 9th. In the 18th Dutch"
Ives got to thi ird with no one out
and the next two men famed and
with two strikes on the next man
he tried to steal home but the bat
ter struck at the ball and was out
before Ives scored. In the 10Th in
ming with one out Carlson walked
and went second on. a passed ball,
stole third and scored on a sacrifice
to left field by Williams. The town
team is newly organized and expect
to have suits in the near future.

REV. j. o. LUNDBERG.

Rev. J. D. Lundberg, beloved
pastor of the Svea church for twen-
ty years. was stricken with apo
plexy in the church of his new
charge at Beckville, Meeker county.
last Thursday morning. and after
lying unconscious for more than
three days passed away at one
O'Clock. Monday morning, May 20.
Confirmation services had just be-
gun. on the morning mentioned.
Ascension Day. the opening hymn
had been sung. the pastor stepped
into the .chancel to begin the exer-
cises when he was stricken. He
was carried into the parsonage, but
did not lose consciousness at once.
He was privileged to speak with
some of his dear ones before he
lapsed into the sleep from which
there is no awakening. The best
medical aid obtainable was sum-
moned but could do nothing. The
sad news was received with sorrow
in this county, where his activities
as pastor and citizen for a score of
years are greatly appreciated.
J. 0. Lundberg was born at Ljus-
dahl. Halsingland, Sweden, Nov. 6,
1851, was ordained as Swedish Lu-
theran pastor at Red Wing in 1883,
and became pastor at Svea in 1883.
Besides Svea, he also served the
Christine church for a succession of
years. In later issue The Trib-
une expects to publish more COM
plete biographical and character
sketch. He leaves to mourn his
sudden death his wife and ten chill
dren: The latter are Mrs. Ellen
Westerberg of this city, Mrs. Anna
Blomquist Of Fahlun. Oscar Lund-
berg of Stockholm. Mimi. and Carl.
Vernon, Herbert. Laura. Amy and
Albertina. Another daughter. Mrs.
Hulda Hegstrom, died five years
ago. The surviving family has the
deepest sympathy of the community
in their irreparable loss.
The funeral will occur at Svea
tomorrow (Thursday) at one 0 clock.
All the pastors of the Wlllmar dis
trict are expected to be present.
Rev. c. J. Collin, former pastor of
the district. will preach the funeral
sermon and Rev. Peterson of Will
mar will make the personal refer
ences. All the pastors present will
participate in the exercises. Ser:
vices are held at Beckville today. ).
and the remains will be taken over
land to Svea. There will be large
attendance of people at Svea tomor-
row to show their respect for the
memory of the departed churchman.
The confirmation class so tragic
ally bereft of their pastor was con-
firmed last Sunday by Rev. Inner
of Litchfeld.
