Their (tit to Jarr.
'hat was . probably an unprecedented
scene In a Douglas county court was wit
nessed Friday afternoon In Judge Ken
nedy's room. The Judge had retired to pre
imre his Instructions while the attorneys,
Messrs. Parish and Haller, were making
their arguments to the Jury. The case was
' the damage suit of Henry P. Heide,
farmer, against J. J. JDeright, for COOO for
injuries alleged to have been sustained by
belns run Into by Deright's automobile
while driving along a public road In June.
19M4. ...
Apparently In their own minds some of
the jurors had taken sides as the case de
veloped, and the attorneys and a few spec
ators were brought to realise this fact. As
I result of the incident one of the Jurors,
i Mr. McCloud, was excused and the other
-leven were permitted, by agreement of the
utorneys, to take the case. They had not j
cached a verdict at a late hour Friday j
light, and If they agree will present a
icaled verdict this morning.
How the Troahle Started.
While Mr. I'annh was talking for the de
Vnse first an Englishman, and then the
nan with the good old Scotch name cor
vcted or criticised his remarks. The lat
er Juryman wanted to ask the lawyer some
luestlon.i concerning a certain experiment

Kennedy was clled In. He told the Juror
hat he could only ask questions aa to tes
.imony, and that he must reserve discussion
u the facts or the attorneys' argument
for the Jury room. The Juror sat down In
Jlaguat, but set his Jaws with an expres
lion which seemed to indicate that he cer
:ainly Intended to discuss some things In
:he retirement of the Jury room. Later he

Some of the Jurors also took exception to
in amount spent for repairs, as it was
ttatnd by Mr. Parish, and the latter ad
ult ted he might have been In error, cor
recting his figures accordingly.
Attorney Haller, while Mr. Parish was
criticising a certain witness, put in a de
cided objection, and Judge Kennedy was
again called in. He sustained Parish's
right to criticise, but Mr. Haller noted an
exception.

That there are several men on the jury

on this fact was based the claim that the

if You Fear Diphtheria Beware ef a

The best authorities now agree that the
chances for contracting dlththerla are
greatly enhanced by colds. If the child
has a cold It Is much more likely to con
tract diphtheria. The same Is true of any
of the much dreaded catering dieaes.
The cold prepares the system for the re

these diseases, that Is why one child will
contract a disease, and another exposed at
the same time will not take it. The one

entertainment was provided by a party of
performers from the Orpheum theater, who
arrived aftr the close of the show there.
Thus the time until midnight was filled to
the limit with pleag.tr diversion.
Annoanceneata of the Theaters.
The coming of "Ben Hur" to the Boyd
theater on Monday evening for a short en
gagement has been the most Important an
nouncement made for the present season.
The advance sale of seats has been large.
Indicating the great interest felt by the
public in the splendid production which has
become so well known throughout the
length and breadth of the land. The star
of Bethlehem and the three wise men Jn the
desert Is one of the most Impressive
tableaux ever presented, and is exceeded In'
beauty only by the tableaux of the vision
of Ben Hur, showing the Mount of Olives
and the healing of the lepers. Here the
presence of the Master is indicated by a
shaft of bright light. While the great throng
massed on the mountain side sings "Ho
sanna." The other scenes In the play are
equally Impressive and realistic, while the
acig company Is very strongs The dates
are Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday even
ings and a matinee on Wednesday.
"The Girl with the Green Eyes." with
Miss Lang In the role of Jinny Austen, will
bo the bill for the coming week at Oie Bur
wood, opening with a matinee on Sunday.
The preparations for this play have been
made most carefully and Director Sedley
Brown expects to have a fine performance
from the very first.
The excellent bill on at the Orpheum
this week will be brought to a close today
when matinee and night performances will
be given. The curtain will rise at :15
sharp tonight. Next week beginning mat
inee Sunday the dainty comedienne, Lillian
Burkhart. and company will present "A
Strenuous Daisy." a delightfully humorous
little comedy. The Esmeralda sisters and
their four flower girls are a seductive
"bunch" of damsels with lively heels who
know how to sing. Then there will be the

Credit adjustment bureaus and the ad
visability of organising one among the toh
bers of Omaha was the main topic of dis
cussion at the monthly meeting and dinner
of the Omaha Credit Men's association at
the Commercial clubrooms last night. The
members of the committee which was to In
form itself on the question were not pres
ent to report, and no recommendations were
made, but a dosen or more members con
tributed Information.
The object of an adjustment bureau, as
explained by President Austin, is to take
charge of the affairs of firms which are
about to become Insolvent, and by managing
the business properly and eliminating at
torneys' fees, to saw as much for creditors
as possible. In most cases. It is thought,
such a firm would rather allow the bureau
to assume management of Its affairs and
satisfy the claims of creditors than to have
bankruptcy proceedings instituted. Port
land and Spokane Jobbers, said Mr. Aus
tin, who have adjustment bureaus, figure
that In such instances they get about 75 per
cent of the money due tbem, where they got
shout 3 per cent when affairs went into
the hands of the law. It was suggested
that the bureau would have to be incorpo
rated, so that It could bid on stock in bank
ruptcy cases and not allow some friend of
the bankrupt retailor to get the stock at
one-fourth its value. A local adjustment
bureau could co-operate with the bureaus
of other cities, each charging the other a
certain percentage on collections made in
territory In which It could more conveni
ently operate than the other.
Bask Practice la Nebraska.
J. T. Brammann brought up the subject of
bank exchange, objecting to the fact that
country banks charge both exchange and
collection fees on sight drafts and demand
the latter before presentation of the draft.
Several agreed with the views of Mr.
Brammann, but Secretary Jones took the
ground that the banks only properly re
numerate themselves for the trouble of
collection. L. M. Talmage of the United
S'atea National bank and Paul Kuhns of
the First National said if cases are investi
gated wherein collection charges are de
manded before presentatloa of the draft U
made. It will be learned that the person on
whom the draft la made bs bad credit in
his home town.
J. H. Taylor of F. P. Kirkendall Co.
told of a peculiar case. Illustrating the dif
ficulty of collecting. An Iowa shoe firm
owed the company large bill and bank
ruptcy proceedlngs.were begun. The Ann.
by special Inducements to other creditors,
managed to prevent certain bills from being
presented and showed to the court that the
assets were til greater than the liabilities.
The bankruptcy ease was dismissed and at-
