Verdict of the Coroner's ' Jury in the Recent
Motor Accident ,
STRANGE CONDUCT OF THE CORONER
Hit Actloni Crltliilted by the Cltlicns
_ Motorman I'urr Mail Superintendent
Stone Held to tlio Orand Jury
Wluro tlio HUme ItetU.
The coroner's Inquest over the death of 12.
F. Holmes , who was killed In the Main
street motor accident , was completed yester
day afternoon , Instead of In the evening , as
was announced at the close of last Friday's
session. What happened is not known in
detail save to the coroner , the Jurymen and
the witnesses , for the coroner Issued an
order excluding all outsiders from the pro
ceedings. Hoportcrs and representatives of
the dead man's estate were nllKo under the
ban , nnd the only record that Is kept of the
proceedings are the very Imperfect notes
kept by the coroncr'himself , the short hand
reporters who took notes of all the preced
ing days' sessions having been included in
the order of exclusion.
J. K. Ulxby , J. W. Hoyman , Herman Parr ,
the motor man , George Burke , the conductor ,
and Miss Maud Bryant wcro the witnesses
examined. Miss Bryant stated Unit Just be
fore the accident the motor stopped nnd then
started up again suddenly , convoying the
Impression to her that thoconduetorsaw tbo
train ami was trying to pass ahead of it.
DParr stated that at the switcttija short
distance cast of the crossing ho received a
severe shock from the brake , and ran the
rest of the distance intervening between
the switch and the crossing without his
hand on the brake , so as to avoid any moro
shocks. When ho saw the train ho put his
hand back on the brake , but sustained an
other shock that almost paralyzed his arm
nnd covered his eyes with a sort of Him thut
prevented hint from realizing Just what was
going on about him.
The conductor , Burke , when asked why
ho old not pull the trolley from the wire
when ho saw the danger Impending , stated
that ho thought the motorman was trying to
reverse his current , und saw that for him to
pull off the trolley would bo to frustrate the
motorman's plans.
After the evidence had been heard the
jurymen retired and soon after returned n
verdict In which they held that the motor
company was partly responsible for the
accident and recommended that the case be
turned over to the grand jury nt its next
session. It also directed that both Superin
tendent A. 1C. Stone and the motorman ,
Herman Parr , bo held , the former because
ho revoked the old rule requiring conductors
to Hag the trains , and the latter because ho
attempted to cross in front of the freight
train.
Much criticism has been expressed on the
action of Coroner Seybcrt in this case. It
has been evident from the start that ho was
opposed to giving the case the sifting it de
served , and during the last day or two it has
been just as evident that ho desired to pre
vent the public , and even the friends of the
dead man , who had a right to be interested ,
from learning the facts that might bo
brought out during the inquest. The end of
the matter has not yet been reached by any
means , however , and the information that
the friends and family of the deceased have
been deprived of will come out in another
way.

A lot of city records that wcro taken to
the court iiodso a number nt years ngo for
safekeeping nnd have there accumulated
must and dust , were moved to their now
resting plnco in the city building yesterday
morning , E. J. Abbott wns superintending
the job of moving them nnd putting them
tmaya In the city's archives. Several men
who wcro doing the soclalblllty net In the
city clerk's ofllco were surprised by the sud
den nppcnranco nt the door , of Abbott , with
blanched face and chattering teeth.
"W-w-w-hat d'ye anpposo this Is ? " said ho ,
ns ho hold n long , dark object out to the view
of the spectators. It looked as though it
might bo a plcco of gas tilpo , nnd there wns
n mysterious look nbout It that Instantly
brought the word "dynnmlto" to the llpi of
someone. There wns n scnttcrntlon , nnd no
ono seemed anxious to rollovo Abbott of his
unwelcome burden. Gradually , however , Jho
crowd gathered around and began to specu
late ns to what the bomb might contain , nnd
what object anyone could have In trying to
blow up the court house or the city building.
"Let's have It. " llnally exclaimed City
Clerk Xurmuehlcn , waving a screw driver In
the air , and ns ho spoke n determination to
dlo for his country If ncccssnry spread over
his face and made his careworn features
almost beautiful. The crowl gathered about
him at a respectful distance nnd watched htm
pry away on the scaling nt the end of the
pipe , fully expecting to sco tils hcnd nnd
his heels part company nnd start out to sco
the world In opposite directions. Hut they
wcro woefully disappointed. There wns not
'tho slightest sign of n sensation of that
kind , nnd when nt last the scaling was
broken nnd n dirty , whitish cake of powdery
stulf fell out there wns a look of disgust
upon the features of the people who had
been fully expecting annihilation a few min
utes before. The "bomb" was Ignomlnl-
ously chucked out Into the street and fell
with n d , s t that proclaimed it
entirely harmless. It wns a sample cake of
cement , a reminiscence of public improve
ments of by-gone years.

There is a place in tlio western part of the
cify which demands the immediate attention
of the city authorities. It is the Indian
creek bridge on Seventh avcnuo , The south
foul-path connects with the road on the cast
end , but on the west there is a jumping oil
place which would drop a man thrco or four
feet. Luckily It is the north side or the
bridge which is used almost entirely , so that
accident have so far been avoided. Tlicro
is nothing in the world , however , to prevent
the south side from being used
as well , excepting the fact that there
Js ncr sidewalk on that side of the
slreet. Any one unacquainted with the lay
of the land passing along on n dark night
would very likely bo hurled over the end of
the bridge nnd a big damage suit ngaitist the
clly would bo Iho inevitable result. 11 Is a
pure matter of luck that such a thing has
not happened already. Tlio city authorities ,
who lost the city $3,1100 a week or so ago by
their recklessness in allowing the Interstate
Street Hallway company to keep North
Eighth street obstruclcd with Its pieces of
track , have learned n lesson , it Is to bo
hoped , and will doubtless do something to
prevent more expensive litigation.

Notice to oult.
A school teacher over in Snrpy county ,
nbout two miles south of South Omaha , by
the name of Lytlo , was called down by the
directors on last Friday night und given
short notice to leave the country. His term
would not expire for thrco weeks yet ,
but the reports that reached the parents of
some of the pupils were enough to cause his
immediatedismissal. . Lytlo Is a married
man and has three children. His family
lives at Pacilic Junction.
' It is lucky that Lytlo got away when ha
did , " said the father of ono of his scholars tea
a BEB reporter last evening , "or ho might
have mot with n tar und feather reception.
Thrco of the scholars tell of his fiendish con
duct toward them , nnd their words cannot
bo doubted under the circumstances. While
ho may not have accomplished his bullish
deslgus ho went far enough to make thu
blood boil in the veins of a parent , who had
entrusted their children to his caro. "

Jiunos Harris of Townnda , 1'oiin. , is
81 years old. IIo has boon eiourt crier
Tor'thirty-eight years , and is in this way
cnown in every part of his county. IIo
s a man very much respected by all who
.TAJIKS HARRIS.
know him. lie has been lu poor health
for a long time , and his improved condi
tion is the subject of general remark.
Clarence. T. Kirby is a , druggist in
Townnda. and ho says that when Harris
wont to him for two bottles 01 Paino's
celery compound last May , before ho
started for a visit to his daughter
Orwell , ho was in very bad shape , und
ho would not havobeon surprised if Mr.
Harris had. novcr coma back to court
again. Lot Mr. Harris toll his story :
IIo says : ' ! have been troubled for
years with what the doctors call Bright's
disease , and my right kidney has both
ered mo terribly ; my knees pained mo
so that I coulel hardly bend over ut all.
I had dizziness in my head , although I
never was much troubled with head
ache. I have been so dizzy as to fall off
my chair nnel had lo bo helped up by
others. In these dizzy spoils I woul'd
apparently see specks llyiup in tha air ,
and 1 wns troubled very frequently in
this manner , bath on the slroot and in
the house. I had cramps nights so ter
ribly that I could not trot to sloop until
3 o'clock in the morning. I first resi'l of
Pnino's celery compound about u year
ago. Having tried nearly all tlio medi
cines and consulted several physicians
without getting relief , I had little confi
dence in anything , but I spoke to Drug
gist Clarcnco T. Kirby about it. nnd ho
said ho was having a great demand for
it , nnd I concluded to try it. I pur
chased two bottles and toolc it to Orwell
with mo ana used it according to direc
tions. I began to feel hotter at once.
When two bottles were gene I could got
no moro at Orwell nnd discontinued Its
use until I cuma back to Townnda. But
1 certainly had loss pain in my kidneys ,
had no cramps , and could sloci > and rest
nearly nil n-ght. When I wont into the
court house on my return. Judge Peck
and all the court ofllcors congratulated
mo on my improved nppearaneo and told
mo I WHS getting young again. And 1
certainly feel younger now. lam taking
third bottle of Paino's
my celery com
pound , and shall continue its uso. Ithiu
done mo moro good than all the other
medicine I over toolc , nnd to it 1 owe my
present improved condition of health. '
