Theodore Kharaa was Wednesday morn
in j adjudged' guilty on one Indictment and
threo counts of using the United States
malls In a scheme' to defraud. The cane has
been on trial for nearly fOUr weeks In the
I'nlted States district court.
K harms was Indicted under three separate
Indictments, all of which are of the same
general character, a scheme to defraud
and using the United States malls In
furtherance of the scheme. The Jury re
turned a verdict, under instructions of the
court, of npt guilty as to one of the In
dictments. A disagreement was had on an
other of the Indictments, but a verdict of
guilty was found as to the second in
dlotment. '
. The Jury went out at 10:90 Tuesday morn--fng,
and did not reach an agreement until
'1 o'clock Wednesday morning.
' Kharaa was visibly seriously disappointed
over the verdict, as he had expected a
complete acquittal.
' The verdict on a single Indictment Is Just
as drastic as If the defendant had been
found guilty on each ut the three Indict
ments, i
The penalty provides for a fine of 1500 or
eighteen months Imprisonment, or both.
' Mr. Klisras' attorneys gave notice that
they would file a motion for a new trial,
.and in the event of that being ' denied
them, to carry the case up on appeal.

Tells of the Flag
and what it Gives
Makes Address to Knights of Colum
bus Upon Opportunities Afforded -and
Duties of Citizens.
Prof. James C. Monaghan of New York,
representing the order of the Knights of
Columbus upon the lecture platform, spoke
last evening In Creighton auditorium under
the auspices of Omaha council upon the
subject, "The Flag America, the Land of
Unlimited Opportunities." ; , - -
Prof. Monaghan said that his talk was
Intended as the answer of the rational
optimist to the irrational pessimist, with
the purpose of uplifting the young men ot
the nation. The lecture was intended as a
proof that .there are more opportunities to
day than there . were yesterday, and that
there will be more tomorrow than today.
Me appealed to the people to make the flag
stand for what our fathers Intended It
should represent.
lie explained that the Knights of Colum
bus is making' an educational campaign.
He said that the most dangerous man in
the country today Isn't the ignorant man
who sells his vote, but the educated man
who buys votes, for he knows full well the
enormity of his offense. He spoke of the
Immigrants who are teaching their children
to despise the American flag, and said that
on Flag day In many eastern oltlea startling
facts were disclosed by the conduct ot the
children, ' who have been taught, to love
the red flag of anarchy, .and he said that
as big as our country is, -it Is not large
enough for any other flag than the Stars
and Stripes.
