Wrestling Star Chief Two Feathers Takes Down Local Challengers

Chief Two feathers, the husky Nez Perce Indian from Montana, again demonstrated his superiority as a wrestler last night, when he defeated Chris Person of Tacoma and John Berg of Bellingham at Germania hall. He threw Berg twice and Person once, succeeding in living up his contract to secure three out of five falls from the two men. A crowded house testified to the worth of the attraction. Of the two white men, Berg was the fastest and quicker man. He succeeded in getting out of a great many tight holes, but the Indian's marvelous strength and endurance finally proved too much for him, and Two Feathers secured the first fall in 21 minutes and 18 seconds. Berg marred his work somewhat by his tactics, several times securing holds that were barred and at other times jabbing the Indian with his elbow. The second bout, which was between Person and the Indian, was won by the latter in 28 minutes. This fall was secured by scissors and half-nelson hold. The third bout, which also was between Person and the Indian, was won by Person, who threw Two Feathers, with a crotch hold, in 9 minutes and 18 seconds. The fourth bout, between Berg and Two Feathers, was won by the Indian in 30 minutes and five seconds.
