Samuel Gross, who lost his job at
the Nelodrome because, at the request
of a government official, he went to
ton of beer and sneaked into the bike
track, wants to know where he gets
off The boy visited The Evening
Star office yesterday afternoon and
asked that he be allowed to make q
statement. He said he was the main
support of the family and that he
has been unable to secure employ
ment since losing his position. He
said he had been employed at the
Velodrome ever since the track had
been built and that he had always
observed the rules He said he was
tempted to go out and get the beer
ON the promise of a tip. Now, he said,
he was in sad plight-out of work
and no job in sight The case is a
most peculiar one, and, as it now
stands, doesn't add to the credit of
Uncle Sam. 1t was a small-potato
trick at best, and so far no one seems
able to advance any rhyme or reason
for the government officials action.
Only harm has come of the affair and
the government seems to be satisfied
to allow young Gross to suffer for an
others work. The people who know
about it are still talking about it and
some of them would like to know the
reason why somebody wasn't punish
ed if crime was committed. Suffice
it to say that somebody was punish
ed-didn't the boy, the main support
of his family, lose his job? Uncle

Freddie Welsh is really the favorite
over Willie Richie for their twenty
round fight tonight in London. The
betting isn't so very brisk, but the
Englishmen are betting that Welsh
will defeat the American. Even
money is being sought by the back
ers of Welsh. but the American s adj
mirers feel so sure that they will get
odds that they are holding back. 1t is
eH pected that Welsh will go into the
ring to 5 favorite. Now, two
months ago, how many sports in this
country would believe such a thing

of his old time speed, and if he con-
tinues to improve he is sure to make
trouble for some of the present. day
stars. He still has keen judgment,
and he knows how to race, even
though he lacks his great sprint of
years ago. Lawson displayed some
of his cunning in the team match
race ON the Fourth, in which he and
Rutt beat Kramer and Frank Cava-
nagh. Iver allowed Cavanagh to as
sumo the lead with Kramer following,
but just about the time Kramer was
thinking of sprinting for the lead,
Lawson, with Rutt following him,
rode up alongside of Kramer and
hemmed the champion in. This put

interested in making good showing
for Stevens county at this show. In
order to do that, we must have large
amount of corn and alfalfa entered.
Each county will this year be assigned
certain space, and thus the exhibit
from each county will stand out by
itself. That means that we must get
as large an exhibit as possible 1t is
up to yuu to help make this exhibit
by bringing in the corn (and alfalfa
if you have any, In order to encour.
age the farmers of this county in
making exhibits, special prizes have
been offered. These prizes are large
and should in themselves be sufficient
to make every raiser of corn or al

these prizes will be awarded 10 farm
ers of Stevens county alone, and in
competing for them, you will also
be competing for the larger prizes
offered by the West Central Mime

that it is returned from Benson to

SPECIALS TO BENSON
Extra Train Service to Corn
Show City

Arrangements have been made With
the Great Northern Railway for three
special trains from Brown Valley,
BeIlingham, and Marshall, to Benson
and return. on each day of the Corn
and Alfalfa Exposition, Nov. 1928.
This arrangement. supplementing
the regular train service into that
city, insures an attendance that will
shatter all previous records. In all
parts Of West Central Minnesota there
have been demands for special service,
so as to enable the thousands of per-
sons interested in the exposition, an
opportunity to come. There is keen
rivalry between number of the coun-
ties as to which county will win the
handsome silver trophy given for the
largest attendance, and the special
train service will prove advantageous
to the outer rim of counties. All
special trains will leave Benson each
evening at 1915.
On Friday, Nov. 27, a special
tram will be run from the Twin Cities
containing large number of Twin
City business men. Secretary M. E.
Harrison is negotiating with the
Northern Pacific road for a special
from Little Falls. The following
special train service affecting this
city and other places in the association
district has been obtained, and ample
Accommodations will be obtained By
notifying the local agent regarding ap.

to take advantage of it:
