Ninety Per Cent
Of Nebraska Corn

Information coming to the land de-
partment Of the Burlington is to the
effect that in Nebraska fully go per
cent Of the corn has been gathered
and is cribbed or sold. This is con-
sidered an unusual record, as gem
orally, by the middle Of December, at
least one-half Of the corn is still in
the fields.
The speed made in gathering the
corn this year is attributed to the
fine weather that has been the rule
all over the state and also to the
fact that this fall corn has been fetch
ing prices about double those OF for
fner years.
Help for corn gathering has been
scarce and wages have been around
4 cents per bushel and board. Good

HOW EBERT GARNER
DIDN'T GET HORSES
Swaps Land and Eleven Thou
sand Dollars for Animals
He Never Saw.
THEN MAKES A NEW DEAL

One thousand head OF wild, rangy
Coconimo county, Arizona, broncos
looked better to Ebert L. Garner OF
Belle Fourche, S. D.. than did his
forty-fve lots in Puget Sound, Wash,
and his $1,000 stock of general mer-
chandise in Fayette, Ia, so he swap
ped for the critters--sight unseen
and has been sorry ever since. This
testimony was brought out in the
celebrated Arizona wild horse" case
being tried before Judge Joseph
Woodrough Of the United States dis
trict court.
1t didn't make much difference to
Ebert L. Garner that he would have
to 60 out and Assoc the cayuses.
What did appeal to him was that each
of the horses would weigh about 1000
pounds and would almost be the
value Of one Of his Puget Sound lots.
But it appears that Garner wasn't
stung SO badly after all According
to his testimony he started suit in
the United States district court for
$4,000, and rather than have the mat
ter come to trial, ]. S. Smith and sew
eral others who engineered the deal
(which was negotiated in one OF the
Omaha hotcls), gave him two quarter
sections of land in Holt county, Ne
braska, to drop the matter. He did.
Robinson Buys EN-.
Joshua Robinson, real estate dealer
Of Draper, S. D., testified that he al
most made deal for one Of his eli
cnts, but that the client died and that
he personally made deal which
didn't prove to the best of his adj
vantage. Robinson said he had lot
and house in Iowa valued at $4,000
and was offered eighty wild horses,
which he declared that J. S. Smith
had assured him were easily worth
$50 each. He said he thought his
property worth ninety horses. just
how the proposition finally eliminated
will be told by Robinson later in the
proceedings.
Diamonds in Deal.
Mary d. Becker, the comely cow
girl Of Lincoln, Neb., who earlier
testified that she and her mother had
lost a $1,000 diamond ring and their
home valued at $500, was recalled
on the witness stand to tell more
about the transaction. She said that
the ring had sixteen smaller diamonds
and was set in platinum. Just before
the deal was made she declared that
she took it off her finger, where she
had always worn It, and handed it
to Mr.. Hastings. In an aside to re-
porters Hastings whispered that the
ring brought only $l2 when it was
sold.
Peter Allison, 50l9 Chicago street,
was called upon to identity one Of the
documents which figured in one of
the wild horse" transactions.
One Of the features OF the trial is
the taking down OF nearly all of the
evidence in shorthand BY Judge
Woodrough. There are about rs
witnesses to be examined.

Commends Effort to Pre-

DISCRETION SHOULD RULE
SPEED, 1T is ASSERTED
DR.. F. Vernon Atkinson, Formerly
of Casualty. Gives Instances of
Forty Miles an Hour"

DR.. Harry S. Lewis. superintendent of
Emergency Hospital. this morning told
a Star reporter that he was heartily in
ent of police, in the matter of trying
to prevent recklessness on part Of driv-
ers Of ambulances.
II would not care to be in an ambu-
lance going at the rate Of forty miles
an hour or being driven recklessly."
said DR.. Lewis. but I do think the
question of speed of an emergency am
bulance should be left to the judg
ment of the physician in charge.
IF the man in charge Of the ambu-
lance uses good judgment he is not go
would not encourage reckless driving"
DR.. Lewis said that in emergency
cases in which persons are in critical
condition he thought the patients
should be taken care of as quickly as
possible and that there should be no
delay in getting them to the hospital.
No Complaint in This Case.
In reference to the colored man
named Joseph Landon, 1915 r street
northwest. who dropped dead yester
day at Rhode Island avenue and 14th
street, DR.. Lewis said that nothing
could have saved his life. He stated
he had received no complaint from
Dr. A. W. Kenner. the physician who
made the call, that the Limitation on
the speed of the ambulance contributed
to the mans death.
DR.. F. Vernon Atkinson. former resi-
dent physician at Casualty Hospital.
visited the Office of Maj. Pullman this
morning and discussed the ambulance
situation at that hospital While he
was resident physician at the hospital,
