HICCOUGHS NEW DISEASE.
Many Cases of it Reported Throug
out the State, One i'm DEBORAH.

For the past three years there
seems to be one disagreeable ill
ness after another affecting a large
number of people over the country
The flu was the first dangerous one
to make its appearance and it exact
ed heavy toll This has been follow
ed by smallpox the past few months
which had a wide spread over the
state.
The latest now is hiccoughs, and
there has been a number of severe
cases reported from different sect
ions of Iowa.
c. +. Mckinney, the we'll known
pump and windmill dealer, was a
victim of the hiccoughs a week ago,
and they stayed by him continuously
from Thursday until Monday, when
they subsidized. A victim of the hic-
coughs is unable to eat anything
to speak of. After Charley's fourth
day his better half decided that he
had better make an attempt at eat
ing and prepared some toast for him,
and after he partook of it, the hic-
coughs ceased.
The malady appeared at Fort
Madison, Iowa, a week ago, and
John w. Korschgen, 60 years old, a
former alderman of that city hic-
coughed continuously for fourteen
days. The danger point was passed
then and he is reported to be i'm
proving. His case was the worst of
half dozen cases which appeared
there. Among other cases were those
of two doctors, DR.. Bess and DIR.
Scovel. Their cases were mild and
lasted from few hours to few
days. The disease appeared at Fort
Madison almost as soon as it was re-
ported to be in America.

Jury With Women Couldn't Agree.

The first jury with a woman as a
member in the history of Nebraska
could not agree.
1t happened in Justice of the
Peace Collins court at Omaha sever
al days ago after Hester Bronson
Copper of that city had been sum-
moned to serve on a jury which was
to decide what disposition should be
made of claims by a dentist for a
bill against a patient, Mrs. Josephine
Brown.
But the jury failed to reach an
agreement and was discharged. Mrs
Copper was the woman on the jury
and she and one of the men jurors
are said to have been alone in their
particular stand on the question at
issue.

Solejah, the widow of wizard,

Urbanah, high priestess of the tenn
pie, by Camilla Sperati, two difficult
parts, were exceptionally well acted
In fact every one Of the characters
acted their part in an admirable
manner and drew forth hearty, well
merited applause.
The musical numbers were very
enjoyable. The That's What He
Taught Me to Do" by Miss Agnes
Gjerset was exceptionally well rend-

by her artistic work, as did Miss
Cathryn Dalvey, as Nolce, a solo
dancer, The musical numbers were all
well rendered and reflected much
credit on the principals.
Too much credit cannot be given
the little tots who took part in the
performance, as their parts were car

than their more mature partners in

much to the pleasure of the evening.

BANKERS PROMISE ID HELP FINANCE
 COTTON EXPORTS
By AssOciated Press

New York, May 9.-Co-operation in fi- nancing cotton exportatlon was prom ised by important New York bankers at meeting today with the committee of scutherh bankers and cotton exporters. Eugene Meyer, managing director of the var finance corporation, declared in g statement tonight. The committee was formed at Atlanta recently under the auspices of the Federal International Banking company.
 The committee discussed at length, Mir Meyer said, the details of the plan for making effective the offer for the war finance corporation for making ad- vance on cotton under contract export In future months. It was expected tha [ very considerable advances to exporters or to banks that are financing exporters would be made available from the war finance corporation under this arrange ment with corresponding relief to south- ern spot markets and southern banking institutions.
 "The committee also discussed the question of sales of credit to European countries in order that they may be able to purchase additional amounts of Amer ican products over and above what they are now able to buy for cash. On this question the meeting had the benefit of consultation with important New York bankers specializing in foreign trade. As- surances of strong cooperation were given by the New York representatives present at the meeting. No formal plan of syndicate cooperation was adopted or considered necessary but it was agreed that this cooperation will be forthcom- ing when concrete export propositions are ready for consideration.

PRINTERS MIX UP IN
 NEW ORLEANS STRIKE
By Associated Press

New Orleans, May 9.-Considerable excitement but little damage was caused by an attack upon Adam La sinsky a strike breaker, employed in a local printing shop, by four alleged union strikers late today, who until recently was in the army, in his report to the police stated that while passing through LaFayette square, in front of the city hall, was attacked by four men said by him to be union strikers
 According to the police, who arrived upon the scene while the encounter was under way, the ex-doughboy was get ting the better of the scrimmage and was proving a worthy antagonist for his attackers. On the approach of the police three of the men ran away, bpt the fourth was unable to free himself from Lasinskys clutches and was ar rested by the police.
 federal injunction secured by the employing printers on Saturday re strains the strikers and their friends from interfering with the nonunion workers, and the man arrested today will be charged with a violation of the terms of the injunction, as well as as sault and battery.
