Shares Setoff Sold.
Shares are now being offered at SIX in
order to create a substantial surplus ac
count at the outset and also to provide
for the Initial guaranty fund assessment,
which is reaulred of state banks under
the guaranty of deposits law of Nebraska.
The promoters of this new institu
tion point out that exclusive of South
Omaha. - recently consolidated with
Omaha, Omaha proper has no savings
bank, and that in this respect Omaha
stands alone, as practically all the cities
in the country have one or mora banks
strictly for savings.
Although most of the savings banks of
the country are organised as mutual com
panies, having no capital stock, their
dividend earnings, based on any given
capitalisation, being merely estimated,
the Douglas County Savings bank is to
Incorporate with the, epeclflo amount of
$100,000 capital. The law of Nebraska does
not permit the organisation of mutual
savings banks.
Woman Wants Pay
for Ducks Drowned
Mrs. Bridget Johnson, widow, residing
at 1044 Bouth Twenty-third street, makes
claim against the ' olty for ITS damages
on account of the loss of fifty chickens
and ducks on Jotr 18, when overflow
from a sewer flooded her basement. She
maintains the ducks were drowned.
The city oommlnloners wUl give this
their careful consideration, because the

ducks were a substantial part of her
livelihood.
The city legal department, however, is
up against a snag: How were the ducks
drowned T Did the chickens cling to the
ducks and drag them under the water?
