PROVENDER FOR THANKSGIVING
Omiiliit l'eo1e Unit n Fine- Lot to

Freely.
It is very evident that the people of
Omaha Intend to celebrate Thanksgiving In
proper style, so far as the dinner part Is
concerned, at least. The Jobbers of fruits
nnd vegetables say that they never experi
enced n better demand than they havo had
tho last week nnd the moat noticeable fen
turc of tho trndo la tho way In which the
delicacies wero picked up.
It Is very seldom that potatoes ore classed
as luxuries, although there has been soma
tendency to do that since tho wholealo
price has been hovering nrnuud H pet
bushel. That, however, Is nothing as com
pared with $2 for a twenty-pound basket
A shipment of fifteen such baskets wns re
ceived from tho i.outh and wero bought
up In n hurry. They wero new potatoes
Just out of the garden anil wero Intended
as something new In the way of a Thanks
giving delicacy.
Another luxury which wns offered wa
California tomatoes, which old at the rnto
of $2 per twenty-pound crates. California
caullfloWcr was another lino which sold ut
fancy prices, ns high ns $3.50 being paid for
crates. Head lettuce from Now Orleans
was nlFo offered on this market to holp out
tho Thanksgiving dinner and sold nt $0.50
per barrel.
So far as the poultry trade Is concerned
commission men nre more than pleased
with the outcome. Tho demand was Just
nbout equal to tho supply, so that they
cleaned up what thoy had on hand In good
shnpo without rnuslag a break In tho
market. Tho demand was principally for
turkeys, though ducks anil gecso also Bold
freoly. Thoro wns also a sudlclent demand
for chickens to tnko what wa offered at
Htcady prices.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 27. Tho principal
witness todny before the criminal court l
which Mrs. Lola Ida Donlne Is being tried
for tho murder of James S. Ayres, Jr., was
Dr. Martin Wroiazobrook, tho deputy cor
oner for tho District of Columbia, who con
ducted the nutopsy on tho body of Ayres.
He described In dotnll tho three wounds on
the young man's body nnd tho court crier,
stripped to tho waist, wns used to Illustrate
tho location and course of the wounds for
the Instruction of tho Jury.
Dr. Glazebrook nlso testified that Mrs,
Honlno had given him her version of the
mnnner In which Ayres came to h's death,
claiming that the wounds wero li'fllcted
while tho pistol wns In Ayres1 hand, and Il
lustrating how tho tragedy occurred, but
ho thought that It was Impossible for the
wounds to bo mado with weapgn In AyreB
hand, Sho had told him that he was at her
back and had his arms clnspcd about her
when the shot wns flred.
Several other witnesses who gave details
of Ayrca last night nllvo were heard dur
ing the day. Threo colored femalo servants
relnted Incidents of his llfo nt tho Kcnmoro
hotel. Ono of them snld that she had heard
Ayres order Mrs. Ilonlno to get out of his
room nnd remain out. Another that sho
saw Ayres and Mrs. Donlne coming out of
tho former's room together, nnd n third that
upon olio occasion Ayres hnd shown Indif
ference when told that Mrs. Donlne wns HI.
When Lola Ida Ilonlno entered the court
sho was handed threo or four lottere nnd
was bulslly engaged for tho next ton or
fifteen minutes In reading them.
Tho first witness of tho day was Johnson
Hooper, a clerk In the census office, who
wns out with Ayres during tho first part of
tho night on which ho was killed. Ho Bald
that Ayres took threo rIbsscb of beer nnd
that when ho finally returned to tho Kcn
moro about 12:30 o'clock In tho
morning of Mny 1C ho was perfectly sober.
Ho atd thnt tho entire party was sober,
but In good spirits. Ho said, on cross-
examination, thnt before going out thoy had
gone to tho rooms of two or threo other
young men In tho hotel and tried to get
them out. In ono case he nnd Avres had
held Hums up to tho transom of n boarder's
room In nn effort to bring him out and
that when they returned tho crowd pushed
him over on a night watchman who was
lying on a lounge In the corridor nnd thnt
all had then scampered up tho. stairway.
Say Ayre Wna Solier.
John A. Tnff, a Kenmore hotel boarder.
said that ho had conversed with Ayres ns
ho went to his room nt 12:35, May 15, and
that ho was not Intoxicated. Inrtecd, ho
said, nil In tho Ayres party were sober.
Michael Kano, another member of tho
Ayres farewell party, also stated that Ayres
was sober that night. Ho left tho party an
hour beforo It separated nnd went to his
room. Some of tho members ramo after
him and when thoy failed to get n rcsponso
rrom mm thoy lifted up ono of their num
ber so that ho could look Into the room nnd
locato blm.
When Mr. Kane was excused Dr. Martin
Glazebrook, assistant coroner, who per-,
formed tho autopsy on Ayres' body, -wns
called. Tho face was, he said, almost un
recognizable on account of tho mass of
blood which covered It and tho arms wero
half flexed In front of tho chest. Dr.
Glazebrook described the threo wounds In
tho body of the ylctlpi. Onq wna in tho left
arm, ono In the loft thigh and one In tho
breast all excopt tho thigh wound showing
powder burns and Indicating that tho
weapon hnd been In close proximity to the
body when at least two shots wero fired.
Tho witness said he had experimented with
tho pistol found In Ayres' room nnd ho was
about to relate tho particular experiments
when counsol on both sides, desiring to
havo surgeons present to bear tho state
ment, secured a suspension of his testi
mony.
Tho colored chambermaid of tho hotel
who had charge of Ayres' room was then
cniiea. sno salo film nail novcr seen a
pistol In tho room. Sho said that Mrs
Honlno oftea camo to AyreB' room when
sho wns thoro to get a book. Sho testified
that on ono occasion last February she
went to Mrs, Ilonlne's room and found her
III, Tho latter had asked her to tell Ayres
of her own accord that sho (Mrs. Ilonlno)
was sick abed and to suggest that a little
whisky would do hor good. She accord
lngly told Ayres of Mrs. Doiilne'a Illness,
but he was so indifferent that
sho did not suggest the need of liquor for
Mrs. Donlne. Ayres wnB at tho time read
ing a book and had not looked up when she
entered, in reply to questions by Mr. Ful
ton of counsel Tor Mrs. Donlne, the witness
said sho had never Been Mrs, Bonlne in
Ayres' room when Ayres was there and that
when Mrs, Donlne had asked her to get tho
whlBky she had told hor to get It from
someone elso if sho could not get It from
Ayres. Sho had obtained the whisky from
another boarder nnd had taken It to Mrs,
Donlne.
Emma Drown, colored, who was nurse In
the Kenmore, testified that about two weeks
before tho tragedy ahe had Been Mrs. Donlne
and Ayres coming out of Ayres' room about
10 o'clock on a Sunday; that Ayres had on
only trousers and undershirt and that Ayres
went to tho bath room and Mra. Donlne
toward her own npartmenta. On cross-
examination tho witness said ahe did not
know but that Mrs. Ilonlno had simply
stood nt the door; that Mra. Donlne was
fully dressed and that there wore no signs
of excitement on the part, of either Ayres
or Mrs. Donlne.
Mary Grayson, another domestic nt tho
Kenmore, testified that about March 20
last she waB working In Ayres' room when
Mrs. Honlno came In and that Ayres ordered
her out, telling her not only to go, but to
stay away, as ho did not want her therei
Later Mrs. Donlne hnd told her that Ayres
was angry with her because he thought
that she (Mrs. Donlne) had told people
nbout tho hotel that he was drinking, but
that she hnd not done so. When the witness
was excused tho court took a recess for
luncheon.
HIiiMtrntea h;r I'nrllnlly .11de I'lifurrs,
After recess Deputy Coroner Glazebrook
resumed his testimony, beginning with a de
scription of his experiments with the pistol
with which Ayres was killed to show tho
distance necessary to make powder burns
such as were found on Ayres'- undershirt..
Ho concluded that tho wound In Ayres'
thigh must havo been mado by a weapon
held more than twenty-four Inches from tho
spot. Ho also concluded that the arm
wound must have been made by a pistol
held about fourteen Inches away. In tho
chest wound he thought the muzzle of ths
rovolver must have been eight Inches from
the body. Court Crlor Joyce wns (hen In
troduced as a lay figure to Illustrate tho lo
cation of tho wounds on Ayres' body. Mr.
Joyce waB stripped to the waist and Dr,
Glazebrook described the wounds at length,
making careful measurements and using col
ored court plaster cut round to show tho ap
prnraneo of the spots whero the bullets had
htatef.A ths bed, A UK u4a Hints afrod
In tho witness box Mrs. Donlne did not once
glance at Joyce, and most of tho tlmo ho
was on exhibition sho conversed with her
nttornoys and her husband.
Dencrllie l'ntnl Won ml.
Continuing his statement and stilt using
Joyce's body for tho purpose of illustration,
Dr. Glazebrook said that the wound in tho
chest had penetrated the windpipe and
lungs on tho left and had ranged to tho
right and upward, lodging lu tho back. This
wound, ho said, was necessarily fatal.
He thought from the appearance of tho
blood found in Ayres room that It was
caused by tho chest wound and had been
vomited.
Dr. Glazebrook said he had called on
Mrs. Donlno at the Jail professionally on
the Tuesday after tho tragedy to make an
examination of bruises snld to be on her
body. On that visit she volunteered to Il
lustrate to him how tho tragedy had oc
curred and gave him her version of It. lie
said that Mrs. Donlno hnd bad him place
both arms around her, a pistol being held
In the right hand. She had, she snld,
clasped the rovolver and tho hand which
hold It nnd the pistol was snapped threo
times In the struggla which ensued.
"Assuming that tho rolntlvo positions of
the two wero such ns thus described and
the pistol was In Ayres right hand, could
the wounds which you found upon his body
have beeu Infllctod?" asked District Attor
ivey Gould.
Uuentlon Mr. Ilonlnr' Theory.
"Taking into consideration the position
of Ayres nnd of Mrs. Donlne, to
gether with the appearnnco of his cloth
ing, I don't see how it was possible that
tho pistol could havo been held In Ayres'
hand," replied the witness.
Mr. Douglas on cross-examination
brought out the fact that there was a slight
contusion on Ayres' forehead nnd several
abrasions and bruises on his legs and feet,
tho purpose of tho defense being to iihow
thnt thero had been a struggle. Tho wit
ness said that on tho two legs thero were
eight of these wounds on tho Insldo of tho
legs and thnt all were fresh wounds. The
wounds on the feet wero all on top.
Dr. Glazebrook expressed the opinion that
tho most natural thing for a man wounded
as Ayres was would bo to grasp at tho
wound.
Desponding to n question from Mr. Doug
las, tho wltnesR snld he thought that 1
man wounded In the chest ns Ayres was
could havo cried for help In a subdued tone,
Coming to tho description already given
to him at tho Jail by Mrs. Donlne, Dr.
Glazebrook said she hail shown him tho lm
prints of her finger nails mado In her own
hands when sho grasped his hand and tho
revolver. Ho also said that after proceed
lng for n short tlmo In tho description of
tho affair Mrs. Donlno hnd stopped sud
denly, saying that she hnd been advised not
to tnlk further of the tragedy. On tint
same vls.lt ho hnd found a brnlso on each
of Mrs. Ilonlne's nrms. which could have
beeu mado n week before. This would havo
taken them back to the date of the killing
of Ayres. The Inner side of tho left leg
also wns bruised from tho knea to tho
ankle nnd there were many bruises on tho
right leg.

Rheumatism
Omega
1 1 Many people
JH believe Rheu
matism Is a disease of
the blood. Perhaps it
is, and perhaps it is not.
If it is a blood disease,
why is it the pain often
stays in the same place ?
Why is it the blood
doesn't always carcy. the
disease all over the body
and into every muscle
and joint? Your doctor
may be able to explain
it, but it is all guesswork any
how. Omega Oil is what you
ought to use for Rheumatism.
It is to be well rubbed on the
place where the pain is. No
matter whether the trouble is
in the blood or not Omega
Oil goes in, finds it out and
cures it. What's the odds so
long as you get relief?
Drink plenty of fresh
water every night and
morning while using
Omega Oil. The water will keep the kidneys well
flushed, and will bring about a quicker cure of Rheuma
tism. Try this plan for two weeks and see the result.
