AVE you a wealthy walk? Walks, psychologists affirm, shew ths
H strongest Indications of characteristics of the owner, but rarely
have we known that they announced the state of their checkbooks.
An Omaha matron, the wife of a well known real estate man,
while traveling recently, was asked by a fellow traveler, "Where are your
diamonds?"
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

SICK JUROR HALTS
TRIAL OFjiIATTERS
H. F. 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.

A RKADKIt.
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. The fur is used principally
for making gloves, collars, caps, capes,
muffs, trimmings, linings, etc.
