District Court.
District court convened in regular
session in this city last Monday with
Judge Dickson upon the bench and
Reporter Scott occupying the reporter’s
chair.
The first case on the docket and
which was taken up Monday was the
damage case of Primitivo Melindes
against M. A. Camery. The case
grew out of the laying of sewerage in
Atkinson last summer. Camery was
the contractor who put in the
sewerage and Melindes was in his em
ploy laying sewer pipe. On the fore
noon of July 6 while Melende was
laying pipe in a trench about twelve
feet deep, another of the workmen
removed a jack that was used to hold
braces against the bank to prevent a
cave in, and the ditch caved in bury
ing Melendes under several feet of
dirt. When dug out he was un
conscious and, as the testimony proved
was unable to work for some time.
Last fall he brought suit against
Camery for $15,000 for the injuries
received. When the plaintiff had
rested their side of the case the
court, on motion of the defendant in
structed the jury to bring in a verdict
for the defendant, on the ground that
the injury was wholly caused by the
negligence of a fellow servant. Ed.
J. Waters of Omaha, of the firm of
Waters & Hanley, and E. H. Whelan,
appeared for the plaintiff; while J.
J. Harrington and Mr. Woodrough, of
the firm of Gurley, Woodrow & Fitch,
appeared for the defendant.
The next case taken up was the
case of the State of Nebraska vs.
John Latzel and Edward Wainscott.
This case was called Wednesday
morning about 11 o’clock, at the con
clusion of the damage case, and is
now on trial. Latzel and Wainright
were arrested last fall upon complaint
of Earl Feezer, who alleged that on
or about November 11, 1914, they did
take and steal four calves to the value

Weekly Market Report.
South Omaha, June 16.—From the
Standard Live Stock Com. Co.—Week
after week for some time we have
been expecting a light cattle run, but
they still seem to come as though the
woods were full of them, and with a
liberal run again at the beginning of
this week the market has suffered an
other set back of 10 to 16e. Some of
the commoner and grassy are hard to
move at an even greater decline than
above quoted. Good stockers and feed
ers are holding firm with both offer
ings and demand limited. Common
kinds are lower.
We quote: Good to choice cornfed
beeves $8.26 to $9, common kinds down
to $7.25. Good to choice cows and
heifers $0.75 to $7.75, fair to good
$5.75 to $6.70, canners and cutters $4
to $5.70. Veal calves $8 to $10.50.
Bulls, stags, etc., $6 to $7.25. Good to
choice feeders $7.50 to $8, common
grades down to $6.25. Stock cows and
heifers $5.60 to $7. Stock calves $6 to
$8.
Hog prices are on the toboggan
again and are the lowest for some
time.
Bulk $7 to $7.15, top $7.25.
Sheep and lambs have suffered a
decline of 50c to $1.00, but are still
high.
WAR’S DEMAND ON INDUSTRY
Makes Tremendous Demand On Pro
ducing Capacity of a Nation.
From the American Machinist: A
French engineer reports that he has
seen car-load after car-load of rifles
going back from the firing-front in
France for repairs, and has said that
it is estimated that every soldier ac
tively engaged will require ten rifles a
year. Of course, many of those re
turned are repaired and sent back into
service. Records from the maneuvers
of some of our State militia show a
loss of 10 per cent, of the rifles issued
during a ten or twelve days’ encamp
ment. If the loss is as great as this in
a few days training, what must it be
in weeks of active fighting ?
Turning to shells for the larger guns
it is said that the French fired one
hundred and fifty thousand 75-milli
meter shells in the Battle of the Marne.
Their 75-millimeter guns can shoot
sixteen shells per minute, and there
are guns which have records of having
shot 2,000 shells in a single day. At
the first of this year, the French Gov
etpment was just completing its equip
ment to produce 200,000 explosive
shells per day. A plant now under
construction in Paris is to have a ca
pacity of fifteen thousand 75-milli
meter shrapnel-shells per day. At the
rate mentioned, eight of the French
75-millimeter guns could fire all the
shells produced by a factory employ
ing say 4,000 to 5,000 men.
These figures apply solely to ammu
nition and do not hint at the enormous
supplies of other materials that an
army needs.
When measured in labor-hours,
these figures are astounding and be
yond our mental realization. But they
do give us a hint as to the tremendous
strain upon the manufacturing equip
ment of the countries now producing
war-material. They also show the
sense behind the action of the last
United States Congress authorizing
the development by the War Depart
ment of a corps of civilian engineers, a
part of whose duties will be the pro
duction of ammunition and war-ma
terial, if this country ever faces war.

AFTER TWO YEARS
O’Neill Testimony Remains Unshaken.
Time is the best test of truth. Here
is an O’Neill story that has stood the
test of time. It is a story with a
point which will come straight home
to many of us.
H. J. Zimmerman,merchant,O’Neill,
says: “My back ached constantly. I
had to pass the kidney secretions too
often and the passages were attended
by a scalding sensation. Dizzy spells
and pains in my head also caused me
much misery. The first box of Doan’s
Kidney Pills, procured at Pixley &
Handley’s Drug Store, helped me and
four boxes rid me of kidney com
plaint.”
OVER TWO YEARS LATER Mr.
Zimmerman said: “Doan’s Kidney
Pills have merited all the praise I
have given them. My kindey’s
haven’t bothered me since I used
them.”
Price 50c, at all dealers. Don’t
simply ask for a kidney remedy—get
Doan’s Kidney Pills—the same that
Mr. Zimmerman has twice recom
mended. Foster-Milburn Co., Props.,
