Now this matron Is very conservative, and, as she says, to ber sorrow never possessed a diamond in her life. On receiving a reply to this effect, the speaker Insisted that It was an Impossibility, and would not become reconciled to the unfortunate state of milady's jewel box. Again and again the dlamondless passenger emphasized this fact, with the strongest proofs, but nothing could convince the stranger. "It is impossible! It is impossible:" she said, "for you have a wealthy iwallc Concert Parties. JordPty ta aroatly Interested In Miss Nuh'i performance with the Minneapolis Symphony orchestra thUi evenlnn.

Kohlmeier of Wakefield Suo cumbs to Attack of Erysipelas and Delays the Case. MAY RESUME NEXT MONDAY The illness of a Juror brought to an abrupt halt the trial of Thomas H. Matters in federal court Friday morning;. The sick juror Is H. of Wakefield. lie has erysipelas, acute febrile disease, by diffused inflammation of the skin. It is considered contagious. He was attended by the government's physician. Dr. S. K. Spalding, who says he-will be able to break up the attack In twenty-four hours. Judge Youmans, who has been pushing the big trial with lengthened court hours, dismissed the Jury under orders to re port for duty Katurdav morning. It la not likely, however, that the trial will proceed before Monday morning. The trial of Thomas H. Matters on the charge of aiding and abetting President Melcholr Luebben of the defunct First National bank of Sutton to Issue certifi cates of deposit without authority, be gan Tuesray, February 9, and has now been In progress nine days, with no sign of the end being In sight. Bailiff la C hara-e of Jurors. The Jurors, with the exception of the sick man, will have to remain at their hotel In charge of a bailiff Just this much longer on account of the unexpected de lay. The time of the attorneys and Judge must also he largely wasted. In this connection several of the at torneys In the ease referred to the wis dom of having a change in the state con stitution, allowing ' certain measures to be taken In auch cases. "In the long cans the possibility of one of the twelve men In the Jury being taken 111 Is considerable," said A. W. Lane of Lincoln, who Is assisting United States Attorney Howell. "In some states they have a constitutional amendment allow ing the case to proceed with eleven Jurors In case one of them la taken III. Certain states confine this rule to civil cases, but others allow such a procedure in even criminal cases. "Another means which has been de vised to avald the possibility of delay on account of Illness of one of the twelve jurors is the swearing In of a thirteenth man with the regular twelve. "This thirteenth man sits through the trial precisely as the other Jurors. If none of ths twelve Is taken III, he has no part at all in determining the verdict But if one of the men Is taken ill this thirteenth man takes his piece and the sick man drops out of the case perma nently. It seems a very wise plan.;. But Who Wants to Eat Any Muskrat? WHITMAN, Neb., Feb. 18-To the Omaha Bee: Will you pleas investigate and report through your valuable paper whether or not the muskrat is eaten as food, I understand it is used quite ex tensively In and around Atlanta and other eastern localities and is considered a very delicate morsel and often served at select dinners. Personally I have proven the meat to be finely flavored and to be most excellent in potplns. It should be first parboiled in soda water, after which It needs no further treatment.

The niupkiat has been used for food, hut not to any great extent, because of the bad tinge given to the flesh by the presence of the musk glands. The Ency clopedia Americana says on this subject: "The musky odor of these animals la due to a thick fluid secreted In two small glands near the generative organs which Impart to the flesh a taint that makes It unpalatable to most persons." It is very widely used for Its fur. d.OOO,- IOO pelts being produced annually. It Is a very prolific animal, having three to nine young at a birth and often three births a year.
