Mndeats Opposed to Cheating:.
Students of the State university have or

This morning a. meeting was held at which
PUTTING. .!T TV9U
Bat Doesn't It Look' Reasonable
This may read as though we were put
ting It a little strong, because It Is gen
erally thiwght by the majority of people
that Dyspepsia In Its chronic form la in
curable or practically so. But we have
long since shown that Dyspepsia la cura
ble, nor Is It suclv a difficult mutter as at
first appears.
The trouble with Dyspeptics la that they
are continually dieting, starving them
s:ve or going to the opposite extreme or
else deluging tho already overburdened
stomach with "bitters," "after dinner
pills," etc., which Invariably Increase the
difficulty, even If in some cases they do
give a slight temporary relief. Such treat
ment of .Ihe stomach simply makes matters
worse. hat the stomach wants In a rest.
Now how can the stomach become rested,
recuperated and at the same time the body
rout'lshrd and sustained?
Tills la a great secret and this Is also the
secret of the uniform success of Stuart's
livspepsla Tablets. This Is a comparatively
new remedy, but Its success snd popularity
leave no room us to Its merit.
The Tablets will digest the food anyway,
regardless of condition of stomach. The
sufferer from Dyspepsia, according to di
rections. Is to eat an abundance of good,
wholesome food and use the tablets before
and after each meal and the result will be
that the food will he digested, no matter
how bad your Dyspepsia may be. because,
as before stated, the tablets will digest
tha tood even if the stomach Is wholly In
active. To illustrate our meaning plainly.
If you take grains of meat, eggs or
ordinary food and place it In a temperature
ef W degrees, aud put with It one ef
Btuart 's Dyspepsia TsMets, It will digest
the meat or eggs almost as perfectly as If
the meat waa enclosed within the stomach.
T-he stomach may be aver, ao weak yet
these tablets will perform the work of
digestion and the body snd brain will be
properly nourished and at the same time
a radical, lasting cure of Dyspepsia will
be made because the much abused stomach
will be gpVen. to some extent, a much
needed rest Tour druggist will tell yon
that of all the many remedies advertised
to cure Dyspepsia, none of them have
given no complete and general satisfaction
sa Stuert's Dyspepsia Tablets, and not
least In Importance in these hard times Is
the fsct that they are also the cheapest
and give the most good for the lesst money.

ATTACK ON JOHN MITCHELL
Socialist Delegate Accuses Him of Selling
Oat to Kins Ovcsrs,
COLORADO STRiKE STARTS THE TROUBLE
Miners Leader Tells Mhr H De
clare a Strike Off Makes erls
Ckarges Acalast District
Officers.
INDIANAPOLIS, Ind.. Jan. 19 -In the
national convention of the United Mine
Workers of America today John Mitchell,
president, was accused by Delegate Robert
Randall of Wyoming of having sold oui
the Colorado striking miners to the opera
tors, of having been a traitor to the
miners' organization and of having en
tered Into a conspiracy with tke mine
owners, D. M. Parry and Governor Pe
body S peace organizations to ruin the
Colorado miners and lose them the recent
strike.
President Mitchell replying, took the floov
and gave some of the reasons why th
national miners' organization had with
drawn Its support f rem the Colorado strik
ers. Randall hsd said that Prefddent Howell
of the district asked for Kwn.OO for the
strike, offering to win or lose It on that
amount. Mitchell, referring to this, said:
Let me be plain on this. Howell did not
ask fur the money. If he had he would
not have got it; I would not trust him
with It.
He charged President William II. Howeii
with Irregularities and ex-national board
member J. I Oekr with being In collusion
with stock brokers. He told how he forceo
Gehr to resign his office because of It.
Gehr. he said, admitted that he was to
get ll.uuO for advance Information concern
ing the close of the strike. He also told
of Howell leaving Gehr in charge of tke
strike for a time last year, and said that
In two weeks Gehr drew J35.O00 of the or
ganization's money for the strike.
"Mr. Howell," declared Mitchell. "Is not
a safe witness for anybody." He told how
the first and last moneys for the strikers
was appropriated by the officers to pay
their back salaries.
Mr. Mitchell's Matement showed a gen
erally bad situation. He said that after
I6C, had been poured Into Colorado the
spirit shown by the miners of the state
was such that he had recommended the
settlement and that national sid be with
drawn, and he would do so again under
the circumstances. He said he was ready
to get out if It was thought best, and re
ferred1 to the fart that for six years he had
not asked for re-eIe-t!on.
There were speeches by Vice Presidents
Patrick Dolan of Pittsburg. W. R. Fair
ley, who was In charge of the strike, and
Secretary-Treasurer W. B. Wilson. All
went to show that the Colorado officers or
miners eyen wanted a per diem for re
maining on strike; they received more
money than the anthracite strikers got
figured on a per capita basis and there was
n demand for enough for the strikers to
live on turkey. It was also stated that the
miners even had refused to put up the
tents sent to them unless they received pay
from the national organization for putting
thcin up.
The attack of Randall was attributed by
friends of President Mitchell to the so
cialists, who hart Just previously met with,
their annual defeat In trying to have the
miners' organization declare Itself for so
cialism. The feeling shown among the dele
gates was practically unanimous la favor
of President Mitchell.
Randall said h . would have something
to say later and President Mitchell said
he would reply to Randall's statement
when it was made. The debate closed with
the a&ummeut of the convention.
Prepare for Joint Conference.
The commissioners and secretaries of the
several organizations of bituminous coal
operators of the I'nlted States today took
the initial step toward the organization of
a joint tribunal of miners and operaors to
which shall ho referred all mine troubles
for settlement.
BISnOP TUTTLE PREACHES
(Continued from Flrpt Page.)
the following resolution w;is unanimously
adopted:
"The second annual conference ef the
Sixth Mleslonary district sends loving
greetings to its host, Rt. Bev. George
Worthlngton, bishop of Nebraka."
Rev. Wise of South Omaha submitted the
following resolution, which was unani
mously adopted:
Forward Movement to Be Launched.
Resolved, That the chair be authorized to
appoint a committee of five to prepare a
forward movement, which shall be pre
sented to this conference at the business
session at 2:is Friday afternoon.
Bishop Tuttle announced the following as
such committee: Bishop Morrison of Iowa,
Rev. James Wise of South Omaha, Rev. W.
J. Moody, Mr. F. O. Osborne and Mr.
Clement Chase.
The announcement was made by the pre
siding bishop that the business session
would begin Friday morning at 10 o'clock
and not lie) as announced In the program.
The business sessions will be held at
Creighton hall.
The hour for the conference session hav
ing arrived Bishop TutUe called Bishop
Millspaugh of Kansas to the chair to pre
side during the conference.
I'pon taking the chair Bishop Millspaueh
spoke briefly of his former experience of
ten years in Omaha, and was personally
pleased that the conference should be held
here this year. From but two churches
and a few communicants when he was here
the city now has eleven churches and 2,500
communicants, more than some dioceses.
Special Tribnte to Bishop Hare.
The conference session was devoted to
"News From the Iluuie Field," and short
addresses were made by Bishop Morrison
of Duluth, Bishop Graves of Laramie,
Bishop Maun of North Dakota, Rev.
George BelHey of the bishopric of Balina,
who represented Bishop Griswold, and
Bishop Hare of South Dakota- All of the
speakers told of the growth of the mission
work in their fields and the addresses were
full of encouragement and hope for greater
thincs In the future.
The address of Bishop W. II. Hare of
South Dakota was of particular Interest
and be was given the special distinction
of the entire audience and conference ris
ing In greeting when he ascended the ros
trum. As missionary bishop among the
Indians of South Dakota his' report was
listened to with the closest attention. He
said:
"We now have sixty church buildings
among the Indians, four mission boarding
schools and 'ninety congregations. The
Bible and hymnals and prayer book has
been translated into the Sioux Indian lan
guage ail a missionary paper, the An
pao Kin. is published at Forest City, 8. D.
Our missions are in many instances from
fifteen to thirty miles apart. Many of our
priests have gotten hold of the hearts of
the Indians. Some of the men In charge
have been with the Indians thirty and
thirty-five years. What we need Is not
men to do the work they would like to do,
but the work that is to be done. We have
men there w ho stick and stay and who are
devoted to th'lr work. The great need of
our church is to establih Itself in the
early days of the towns snd communities.
Theia was once a bishop who said tb
trouble with the Episcopal church waa tnat
it was dytnf from o much dignity, and
I fear that he was net far from right."
Bishop Brewer's Views.
A brief discussion followed the reports
of the missionary bishops, and bishop
Brewer of Montana, In discussing the mat
ter, stated that there were three things
he wanted to call the attention of this con
ference to. They were: First, too much
time wst devoted to hearing the reports
of missionary blsTiops; he wanted the next
conference to make a better proportion of
the time; second, more meetings of this
kind and a division of the conference dis
tricts Into smaller districts and missionary
dioceses with their auxiliary meetings;
third, an effort to reach the laity, convert
them, and thus enable them to assist in
reforming the church; and chief of all, to
get to work and raise that Sl.pap.OW for
mission work for the coming year.
Rev. T. t Arthur wanted the mission
ary board to issue a Fpeclal edition of the
church publication, the Spirit of Missions,
and send them out to every church member
In order to stimulate missionary work.
"What Is needed," lie said, "is more light
and more Information."
Dr. Lloyd, secretsry of the Board of Mis
sions, speaking for the board, ssld:
"What we want is to get a list of the
heads of the families of the church, snd
we would gladly send the Spirit of Mis
sions to them for a few months free. I am
glad of the suggestion ef Rev. Mr. Arthur,
and concur In It."
An announcement was then msde that
the women of All Ralnts' church would
serve luncheon to the women visitors snd
delegates at Arcanum hall. Sixteenth and
Harney streets, st 1 o'clock this afternoon.
RECEPTION TO TIITIG tTEHGt
Bro-wnell Hall the Scene of Brilliant
ftorlnl Function.
Ons of the functions that will add luster
to the social side of the second annual con
ference of the Sixth missionary district last
evening made Brownell hall brilliant with
life, light and color. The eyent was the
reception given by the Episcopal church
women of Omaha to Rev. D. B. Tuttle, pre
siding bishop of the Protestant Episcopal
church of America, and the bishops, clergy
snd laity who are attending the conference.
The reception gave the visitors a glimpse
Into Omaha's social world.
The reception was announced for I o'clock.
At 10 o'clock a fashionable stream -of hu
manity was still pouring Into the north en
trance. Four large drawing rooms on the
east side of the great building had been
thrown Into one. Into these the visitors
gradually made their way. The drawing
rooms were divided by a reception hall. To
the right was the reception committee; to
the left were the refreshments.
In charge of this committee were Bishop
and Mrs, Williams, Mrs. Clement Chase
and Mrs. Frederic Davis. The bishops
were presented as follows: Bishop Tuttle,
by Mrs. Beecher: Bishop Brewer, by Mrs.
Potter; Bishop Rose, by Mrs. J. Williams;
Bishop Morrison of Duluth. by Mrs.
Mackay; Blshdp Millspaugh, by T. Rlng-
walt; Bishop ind Mrs. Atwell, by Mrs.
Peak; Miss Emory of Boston, by Mrs. Noe;
Bishop and Mrs. Mann, by Mrs. Tates;
Bishop and Mrs. Olmsted, by Mrs. Kountze;
Bishop Ed sail, by Mrs. Melkle; Bishop Mor
rison of Iowa, by Mrs. Barkalow, and Dr.
Lloyd, by Mrs. Klrkendall.
Those who presided at the punch bowls
were Mrs. Westbreok, Mrs. Robinson, Mrs.
Fairfield, Mrs. Joseph Barker and Mrs. W.
B. Millard. The prevailing color waa crim
son, and shades over the candelabra and
cut roses were used to carry out the effect.
Magnificent gowns heightened the spectacu
lar effect, and against the rich colors and
flashing gems the attire of the clergy and
laity formed a somber background that set
off the brighter colors to better advantage.
The spacious halls were admirably suited
for an event of tWa kind. While several
hundred people wens ' present during the
evening there was no. time when the crush
reached a point where. It was difficult to
move about. The affair had been rlanned
by Mrs. Chase, and so carefully were the
details looked after that during the entire
evening there was not the slightest hitch
In carrying out the splendid program. Every
possibility had been anticipated and pro
tided for. Well groomed waiters stood Just
where they were needed most. Doors that
might be In the way were barred and those
that were needed were flung wide open,
that there might be nothing to retard move
ment. Miss Macrae was the hostess of the
evening, and her ruests were at ease when
they crossed the brilliant threshhold.
WOMEN TESTIFY FOR SMOOT
Gentile Polltlclsns Give the Senator
from t'tah an Excellent
Reputation.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 19.-Two prominent
Gentile women of I'tah, one a member of
the legislature that elected Mr. Smoot, were
witnesses today in the Smoot inquiry before
the senate committee. Both women gave
Senator Smoot an excellent reputation and
testified that they would not vote for a
polygamlst- The counsel for Senator Smoot
exhausted their list of witnesses hers, but
expect several witnesses will stive In time
for the hearing tomorrow.
John "W. Hughes of Salt Lake City, ed
itor of a weekly paper testified that the
sentiment among Gentiles waa that Presi
dent Smith was a fanatic In religion, but
that he was thoroughly honest and was
keeping the church out of polities. He had
made an Investigation Into the number of
polyganiists in Salt Lake tTlty and found
that there were only seventy-four men.
nearly all of them old, only two being un
der 60 years of age.
Mrs. Mary G. Coulter of Ogden, a Gentile
and wife of a physician, testified lu regard
to political affairs. She was a member of
the legislature that elected Mr. Smoot a
senator. She said she went unpledged, but
was glad to abide by the result of licr
party's raucua Before voting for Mr.
Smoot, she said, she ascertained that he
was not a polygamlst. Speaking of the
Mormons In political affairs, she said they
"sized up" very well with the Gentiles.
Polygamous relations were never flaunted
by the Mormons said Mrs. Coulter, and
the young Mormons particularly were op
posed to the continuation of the polyga
mous relations. As a member of the le-
lt.lature.she said she waa asked by as many
Gentiles as Mormons to vote for Mr. Smoot.
On cross-examination Chairman Burrows
asked If It would have made any difference
In her vote for senator If she had known
that a majority of Mr. Smoot's fellow apos
tles were polygamlsta. Mrs. Coulter re
plied that possibly she might have voted
for Mr. Smoot, because many Gentiles wel
comed the opportunity of showing that
their antagonism waa not directed against
the church, but merely against the prin
ciple of the church known as polygamy.
She said further that' she would not vole
for a polygamlst.

lock make necessary the choice of another
nominee.
It was stated today by Kerens men that
tho real fight Is on Thomas J. Aklns, na
tional republican committeeman and former
chairman of the republican state committee.
The declaration was made that should
Niedrlnghaus be elected to the senate on
the indorsement of Aklns It would mean,
that Kerens would be shorn of poiltlcel
power nnd prestige and that therefore
Niedrlnghaus must either repudiate Akin
or go down In ultimate defeat. Mr. Aklns
is not In Jefferson City at present.
The eight republican members of tha
legislature, who refused to Vcjte for the
caucus' nominee, tonight gave out a
lengthy signed statement which says that
had the facta regarding the campaign con
tributions of the St. Louis brewers been
known before the caucus was held that
Mr. Nledringhaus would not have been the
nominee. It also charges that tho speaker
of the house and .. federal office holders
were perniciously active In furthering the
nomination of Mr. Niedrlnghaus and also
charges that he used the party machinery
to further his personal schemes." The state
ment concludes:
The position we have assumed 1s In the
interests of the republican party. We
know our duty and the obligations we are
under to the party of this state, and we
would be recreant to our duty as party
men if we permitted Mr. Nledringhaus In
be elected senator, and so hellevilig, we
have voted against him and will continue s
tu do.
When Thomas K. Nledringhaus was
shown this signed statement he said he
had no comment to make regarding it.
