VINCE LOSES OUT -.
IN JUSTICE COURT
Justice Blenkner Decides That
Check Must Be Paid Regard
less of How Holder Gets 1t .

The justice case in which G.
l.. Bickford was plaintiff and A.
K. Vinge defendant which was
brought some weeks ago for the
recovery of the amount of SIS
claimed to be due on account of
the defendant issuing a check
signed by himself for that
amount and which in it's rounds
fell into the hands of the plaint-
iff, who presented it for pay
ment and was refused, was de-
cided last Friday by Justice
Blenkner after being tried in the
office of c.. E. Pierson in The
Tribune block.
The check was originally Civ
en- to Max Rozen who during
October conducted a sale for R.
T. Blenkner here. It was dated
a week ahead of the time it was
given and Rozen was asked to
hold it until the date it bore.
After the week passed instead
of depositing the money in the
bank to meet the check Mr..
Vinge redeemed it and it was re-
turned to him. He put it in his
pocket and forgot all about it
until it was again presented to
him for payment by Joe Biguin.
AS Vinge had paid the check
once he saw no reason why he
should do so again, so refused:
How the check got out of his
possession is more than he
knows. Mr.. Biguin said that he
had gotten it from Rozen, but
how Rozen got it has not yet
been decided. .Hersroomed lat
the Movius home here in a
room adjoining that occupied by.
Vinge and Vinge thinks he eth
er stole it or found it in the hall,
way. Anyway the check was
turned over ~ to Bickford and.
Masters for collection and they
brought the suit and won.
Vinge is now suing Rozen not
only for the amount of the check,
but also for the costs he is COM
PEELED to pay in losing this suit.
Rozen has something like S85
deposited to his credit at the
First National Bank of this city
and this was garnisheed pending
the result of the second suit.

STAND GAME
Referee in Wrestling Match
Saturday Night Spoils Every
thing By Ignorance .

thing By Ignorance
The wrestling match Saturday
evening between S. A. Stefon-
owicz of this CITY and George
Lazy of Grand Forks for the
state championship Of North
Dakota turned out to- be a COM
plete failure on account OF the
referee not understanding his
business, and the crowd present
were given their money back.
Before the match all indica-
tions pointed to the most thrill
ing and fastest contest ever pull
ed off in Bowbells and for the
first few minutes after the
wrestlers got together it looked
very much as though the audi
ence was about to get many
times it's moneys worth. The
first round. lasted about five
minutes when Stefonowicz hap
pened to get his shoulders to the
mat for an instant in a flying
fall, without effort on the part
Of Lazy, and the referee promp-
tly gave the round to the Grand
Forks man. The second round
lasted only three minutes with
the same result.
Both wrestlers expressed them
selves to The Tribune as being
completely disgusted with the
referee on account Of his ignor-
ance of the game, and the crowd
present were ready toslynch him
if given a chance: All those who
asked saat tie ppriici: u III u sad mission
be given back to them were hand
ed their money. -, q g.. j.
This match came far from de-
Gliding who was the best man,
and Stefonowicz Tuesday sent
out a challenge to Lazy for an
other math to be held at either
Columbus or Ambrose in week
or ten days, which if accepted,
will be refereed by someone that
understands the game.
The referees name is Meyer
and he resides at Lignite. He is
a gentleman in eyery sence Of
word, and thought he was doing
the right thing in. his decisions.
He told The Tribune that he
thought that all that was neces-
sary to a fall was that both
shoulders of either contestant
came to the mat at the same
time, regardless Of how long
they were held there. He had
never met either Stefonowicz or
Lazy until the day Of the match
and we believe that 1t was his
intention to be on the square,
but he simply didn't understand
the game and made it bad for
both the people, the wrestlers
and the MANAGEMENT. Many
people came in from some dis
tance out in the country intend
ing to see a good contest, and
were disappointed.
In the future it will be seen to
that a man who is not known to
understand the rules Of the
game will not be allowed to re-
feree any more matches in7Bow-
bells, and The Tribune can as
sure it's readers that another
case like the one Saturday even
ing will not happen again here.

DESPIStD GIFT IN FIRE
HID ENGAGEMENT RING
Girl Learns Too Late of Contents Vt
miserable Basket of Candy Sent
at Christmas by Fiance.

Hartford, Jan. 1O-After two weeks
patient waiting following his fiancee's
dfscouraging attitude an East Hart
ford youth finally summoned suffi-
cient courage to call On Miss Eliza
beth Carroll. He demanded an ex-
planat.on of why his 500 diamond
ring, given as Christmas present
was not acceptable. He also asked
what Is all the row about anyway"
He learned why quickly.
did he think" he was asked, that
he could send a miserable little basket
Of candy to his promised wife for a
Christmas gift and get away with it ?"
In reply the youth answered honest
ly and truly
"Why Bessie. Of course 1 wouldn't
insult you with a mere basket OF
candv. OF course you found the d.a-
mond ring which hid in the bottom
of the basket, rolled up in gold foil"
The girl had to acknowledge that
she had hurled the basket of candy
in the fire in the furnace and all the
searching Of ash receptacles and tedi-
Gus sitting Of last weeks furnace
ashes failed to. reveal sight Or sign
Of the precious gem or it's setting.
It was announced after the vain
search that the loss was considered
only trivial and that the engagement
still held good as published.

More American Fairy Tales

HOW THE FAIRIES SAVED A PATRIOT

No two things can be further
apart than the war spirit and the
fairy spirit. War could not be in
fairyland.
Yet where war RACES good fairies
hover. Where not this true, war
would be even more horrible than
it is.
A revolution in Mexico is just
the place where fairies may dc
good work. For war in Mexico
means that nothing is too cruel for
one side to do to the other side
in their hatred.
To be captured means to die.
Napoleon Lucero knew this
when he left his home in Guadala-
jara to join the men fighting for
freedom. He knew that he was
taking desperate chances.
But he went. And now his lit
tie band of ranchero soldiers and
poems had been killed, EVERY
ONE. He remained alone on a
vast desert, hiding behind a hand
dune, watching the soldiers search
ing for him.
Time and time again the rurales

him they always turned aside. On

"Vamose," was whispered in his

left ear. Doth mean to hurry; get

Still Lucero did not stir. He lay
still. peeping over the top of the
sand dune at his enemies.
Finally Lucero saw the soldiers
marching in a circle, which grew
smaller and smaller as they
marched. This meant that they
must soon find him.
Almost at the same instant he
heard a babble of voices-high,
thin voices, that sounded like
children, and it seemed as If there
were hundred of them. And this
is what they said:
Hurry, fairies. hurry all. Raise
