THE OMAHA DAILY BEE: TUESDAY, DECEMBER 12. 1905. 5 Hie Food Value oS a Soda Cracker You have heard that some foods furnish fat, other foods make muscle, and still others are tissue building and heat forming. You know that most foods have one or more of these elements, but do you know that no food contains them all In such properly balanced proportions as a good soda cracker ? The United States Covernment report shows that soda crackers contain less water,, are richer in the muscle and fat elements, and have a mr.ch higher per cent of the tissue building and heat forming properties than any article of food made from flour. I 1 That is why Unoeda OlSCUlt should form an important part of every meal. They represent the superlative of the soda cracker, all their goodness and nourishment being brought from the oven to you in a package that is proof against air, moisture and dust the price being too small to mention. NATIONAL BISCUIT COMPANY EDWARD S. STOUT WINS CASE Eecelfer Qati Htary Judgment Against kemben of Deluact Company. DECISION AFTER PROLONGED FIGHT Twelve Stockholders Held for V41 Babacrlpt lona to the Amoant of Seventy-Three Thoa and Dollars. Judge Sean has filed his findings in the case of Edward 8. 8tout, receiver of the Omaha Gas Engine and Motor company, against Gunnar A. Llndquist, Walter O. Henry, Frank E. Coulter and a score of others who were officers or stockholders In the defunct company. This company, when organised In Omaha some years ago by one Howard K- .Clover, was supposed to hucomo the owner of patents then owned by Clover which would revolutionise many different kl,.da of business needing cheap nd certain power. After setting out that service was not secured upon, fourteen of the defendants named Jo . Uip .petUJwv the court finds in favor of defendants E. W. Cook. Frank 6. Brownlec, Mary F. Aiken, William I Rltter, Hugh Robertson, Harry L. Aiken, John It. McCague and Mary F. McPlke. The ause of action ab to these defendants Is dismissed. George B, Miller, Oustave F. Bergncr and Frank A. Lewis are adjudged in default and judgment is given against them for $333.33 as to the first two and for W56 as t Lewis. Farther Finding of Court. The court then flndi that "the stockhold ers or incorporators of said corporation pretended to issue the capital stock thereof to Howard K. Clover in consideration of the transfer by him to the corporation of certain patents and patent rights and that the said Clover surrendered said capital stock back Into the treasury ot the corpo ration In pursuance of a fraudulent device whereby the stockholders of the said corpo ration sought to give to the capital stock thereof the character of full paid stock." This transfer is held to be frauduler! and void and of no effect as to the cred itors of the corporation. The patents also are held to have been of little value. Judge Sears says when the receiver was appointed, May 24, 1900, the company was Insolvent and that the receiver sold and disposed of what property the company then owned and thtt thereafter it had no property wherewith to pay debts. T'nder the order of court the receiver instituted the present action. Thlrty-ElKht Creditors.

Loals Only UUSC AND MUSICIANS. "Omaha will undoubtedly finish the year s the world's second primary corn mar ket," said A. H. Merchant, secretary of the Omaha Grain exchange, commenting on the October report of the Department Of Com merce and Labor; which has Just been re ceived. "This report shows that on October II we were 1.M2.IU6 bushels ahead of 8t. Louis, our closest competitor, in corn celpts. St. Louis and Kansas City have been having a heavy run of corn through November and have made large gains on us, but they have not caught us. Now Omaha's run of corn Is beginning, and this market will undoubtedly end the year sec ond to Chicago as a primary corn market." For the month of October Omaha stood sixth In wheat receipts, seventh lu corn receipts, fifth in oats receipts and seventh In total grain receipts. For the ten months ending October 31 Omaha stood seventh in wheat receipts, second In corn receipts, ninth in oats receipts and seventh In total grain receipts. For the ten months Omaha Is surpassed In corn receipts by Chicago; In wheat receipts by Chicago, Duluth, Kan. sas City, Milwaukee, Minneapolis and Du luth; In oats receipts by Chicago, Cincin nati, Duluth, Milwaukee, Minneapolis, Pe oria, St. Louis and Toledo. Wheat receipts for October were 1,397,000 bushels, corn receipts 630,000 bushels, oats receipts 1,466,000 bushels, barley receipts 33,500 bushels and rye receipts 63.000 bushels. Total grain receipts were 3,474,000 bushels, as against l,627,0u0 bushels for October of 1904. The total inbound grain movement at Omaha and Council Bluffs for ten months Is more than double that of the same period last year, being 25,443,500 bushels, as against 12,155,500 bu-hels.

The stranger entered Edhoim's store about 2 o'clock Saturday ai.t.-ruuon and asked the girl at the counter to show her some coral beads.

The corner at Brandcis' store was thronged yesterday with sightseers, who watched the flight of Santa Claus' air ship. About the middle of the afternoon a long, cigar-shaped ship emerged from un upper story window of Brandels' store. In the car beneath was Santa Claus, shouting welcome to the children beneath. The air ship was fitted with a buzzing propeller, but to make its flight more certuln It wis sus pended from a cable. Sunta Claus' ship sailed gracefully across the street to Brandels' new building and back again, much to the del 1 lit of the crowd. Several trips were made during the afternoon. Santa Claus will' steer his air-ship back and forth between the two Brandels build ings every day this week. The ship is modeled after the plan of the Santos Du mont air ship.

At the council meeting tonight a resolu tion will be introduced to make a con tract with Dr. Langfeldt and Dr. Crowley of Crelghton Medical college to examine I milk, water, and all kinds of disease tubes for $2,000 a year. This was decided upon at the council committee meeting Monday I afternoon instead of the proposition to la- j stall a laboratory and employ an expert j to run it. Another proposition w.is made j by the physicians to make tests of asphalt at an additional price of .VK, but City Engineer Rosewater objected to this and the council decided to allotf the. engineer's department to go ahead with these tests as It has been doing. C. C. Wright, ex-Governor Boyd and Secretary Kotnig of the water board, asked the committee to secure for the board a better lighted room for its office, so that Mr. Koenig could spend all of his time there and, beside answering questions re garding the water company, attend ti his own private business. The matter was referred to a committee. The Wafr board committee suggested that the treasurer's ofilce would about suit it after it li.id se cured posesslon of the water plant.

Mr. McVann was made acquainted with the affair and it was reported to the police. Description of Woman. The girl who showed tjie beads gives a pretty good description of the woman. She was about 6 feet 6 Inches in height, weighed about 130 pounds, wore a sealskin coat, black skirt, gray gloves, black veil, and either a green or blue velvet turban. Her faea was round, her eyes either dark gray or brown, and her hair dark brown. Her clothes were stylishly rut, and all the little accessories of dress were of the latest fashion. She was perhaps 35 years of age. "I think the woman took the beads be cause she wanted them for herself and not to sell them," said Mr. Edholm. "She evidently was a woman who does not want for anything that money can buy. My loss is small, but I hope her Identity will be discovered (or the sake of future protection of other merchants.
