    THE OMAITA DAILY BEE: SATURDAY. FEURUARY 25 1903.
THE IDEAL WIFE
Shapes the Destiny of Men The Influence of a
Healthy Woman Cannot Be Overestimated.
Seven-eighths of the
men In this world marry
ft woman Decanse the Is
beautiful la their eyes
because she ha the qtis.ll
tlee which, inspire admira
tion, respect and love.
There U s beauty in
health, which ia more at
tractive to men than mere
regularity of ' feature.
Tine influence of women
glorious in the possession
of perfect physical health
tipon men and upon the
Civilization of the world
could never be measured.
Because of them men hare
attained the very heights
of ambition ; because of
them even thrones have
been established and de
stroyed. What a disappointment,
then, to see the fair young
Wife's beauty fading away
before a year passes over
her head 1 A sickly, half-dead-and-alive
woman,
especially when she is
.the mother of a family,
is a datope to all joyous
ness in the home, and a
drag upon her husband.
The cost of a wife's con
stant illness is a serious
drain upon the funds of a
household, and too often all the doc
toring does no good.
If a woman finds her energies are
flagging, and that everything tires her,
dark shadows appear under her eyes.
' her sleep is disturbed by horrible
dreams J if she has backache, head
aches, bearing-down pains, .nervous
ness, whites, irregularities, or despon
dency, she should take means to build
ber system up at once by a tonic with
epeclflo powers, such as Lydia E. Pink
ham's Vegetable Compound.
This great remedy for women has
done more in the way of restoring
health to the women of America than
all other medicines put together. It is
the safeguard of woman's health.
Following we publish, by request, a
letter from a young wife.
Mrs. Bessie Atnsley of 611 South 10th
Street, Tacoma, Wash., writes :
Dear Mrs. Pink ham:
" Ever since my chiH was born I have suf
fered, a- I hope few women ever have, with
Inflammation, female weakness, bearing-down
pains, backache and wretched headaches. It
affected ray stomach so that I could not en
Joy my meals, and half my time was spent
i Dea.
"Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound
made me a well woman, and I feel so grate
ful that I am glad to write and tell you of
my marvelous recovery. It brought me
health, new life and vitality."
What Lydia E. Tinkham's Vegetable
Compound did for Mrs. Ainsley it will
do for every woman who Is in poor
health and ailing.
Its benefits begin when itsuse begins.
It gives strength and vigor from the
start, and surely makes sick women
well and robust.
Remember Lydia E. Pinkham's Vepe.
table Compound holds the record for
the greatest number of actual cures of
woman's ills. This fact is attested to
by the thousands of letters from grnlo
ful women which are on file in the
Pinkhain laboratory. Merit alone can
produce such results.
Women should remember that a cure
for all female diseases actually exists,
and that cure is Lydia E. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound. Take no substi
tute. .
If you have symptoms you don't
understand write to Mrs. Pinkham,
Lynn, Mass., for special advice it is
free and always hciprui.

How to Prevent Fire Lou,
OMAHA, Neb., Feb. 21, 1006. To the Ed
itor of The Bee: There has been a great
deal Bald and printed in regard to the tire
department and its needs, an well as Are
protection needed, but nothing has been
said about lire escapes and shutters. In the
recent fire at Eleventh and Howard streets
the shutters on the Klrkendall building
kept the Are out, the Are burning down
through the roof, and if the building had
been equipped with fire escapes on the front
and alley side, with ladders reaching to the
roof, the flro department could more easily
have reached same wfth their hose. The
damage that was done to the building and
the goods would thus have been prevented.
The small additional cost tij buildings for
the best fire shutters and for fire escapea
having ladders to the roof will xuve lives,
assiHt the firemen in fighting the tire, and
prevent conflagrations, which fact has been
proven may times. Yours truly.

SNYDER TEILS ANOTHER I ALE
Belf-Confewed Perjurer Saji Ha Lied in
Court on Thirsday.
HIS FIRST TESTIMONY WAS TRUTH
How Aeeuses Lalkhart, Raala and
Odell of Trrrlfylnar lllm Into
Glvla Contradictory State
ment to Coart.
Alva Snyder, the self-confessed perjurer,
has again retracted his retraction snd now
confesses that he was forced by threats
Into the commission of perjury on the wit
ness stand in the United States court room
Thursday morning.
Pnyder's last retraction was made Fri
day evening to A. W. Jefferis, one of the
attorneys appointed by Judge Munger to
Investigate the matter of tampering with
witnesses.
He said to Mr. Jefferis that the statement
that he made to District Attorney Baxter
In his office In the presence of Assistant
District Attorney Rush and Dave Dickin
son, and of which the latter made a steno
graphic report at the time, and to which
he (Snyder) testified on the witness stand
on Tuesday morning, was the absolute
truth and the whole truth. He now states
that on Wednesday he was coaxed and
brow-boaten by the two defendants, Lulk
hart and Ennls, and Odell and other wit
nesses for the defense, to change his testi
mony as he did on Thursday morning. On
Wednesday he went with the defendants
Lulkhart and Ennls and other of their wit
news to W. S. Summers office and there
made the statement sworn to on Thursday
morning. This was done under fear snd
threats made against him by defendants
and their witnesses, and he was so ter
rorized he did not know what else to do. In
the meanwhile Lulkhart and Ennls, he said,
"stuck to me like a leach. I was taken to
the theater and soaked up with whisky and
beer until I did not know what I was
doing."
In brief Snyder completely recants every
thing he swore to on the stand Thursday
morning, nnd stands by the rtory originally
told to District Attorney Baxter, and to
which he testified Tuesday morning.
Too Late to I'ae In Trial.
In speaking of this last retraction of the
witness Snyder, Judge Baxter said last
evening: "It is, of course, too late to do
anything In the matter now. I learned of
the retraction from Mr. Jefferis too late In
the afternoon to have It Introduced Into tho
testimony yesterday afternoon. Judge Mun
ger In questioning the witness Odell yester
day morning touched on the ground, but
the full nature of Snyder's retraction was
not known at that time. The testimony
given by Odell in answer to the question
ing by Judge Munger in a large measure
corroborates Snyder's confession of last
evening to Mr. Jefferis."
Snyder is held In $2,000 bail, which he is
unable to furnish, ponding investigation
Into his caso.
The fifth day of the saloon conspiracy
trial before Judge Munger began with W. 8.
Mansfield, government witness, recalled for
the defense to state the purposes for which
the bull pens were built In rear of the
saloons, which he said were for toilet pur
poses. Tom Dumond, a bartender, denied having
sold liquor to Orr or Featherlegs for re
sule to Indluns, and Joe Meaney, another
bartender, made a similar statement. Ed
Easton, a farmer, testified to the existence
of crowds on the streets of Homer on trad
ing days and the necessity of bull pens for
toilet accommodations.
Charles Meaney, a nephew of Joe Meancy,
was brought over' from the county Jail,
where he Is held under Indictment for sell
ing liquor to Indians. He is also
under indictment for conspiracy with
Lulkhart and Ennls, but Is' out on
bond under that indictment, having
been arraigned under this last indictment,
to which he pleaded not gtillty. Meaney
testified as to the conversation had in the
county Jail on Thursday of last week with
Lulkhart, Ennls, Frank Orr and John Lind
say, the latter one of the attorneys for the
defense.
John B. Lindsay also testified as to the
conversation at the county Jail on Febru
ary 16. Lulkhart first talked with Orr, but
the witness was too far distant to overhear
distinctly Just what was said between them.
Orr told witness afterward that he never
had a contract with Lulkhart to sell liquor
for him to the Indians.
Odell's Experience with Snyder.
At this stage of tho proceedings District
Attorney Baxter asked that William Odell
be recalled for recross-examlnatlon. His
examination was In reference to his ac
quaintance with Alva Snyder, the con
fessed perjurer, and his relations with him
while in Omaha. Witness stated that he
had gone back to Homer to remain over
Sunday, returning to Omaha Monday. Sny
der stayed with him Monday night at the
Dodge hotel, and witness paid the hotel
bill for both. He saw and talked with
Snyder on Washington's birthday as well
as with Ennls, Lulkhart and Rasdell and
one or two others. Witness did not think
that Snyder ate dinner with them at the
restaurant, but he remembered seeing him
and talking with him immediately after
dinner on the street car near the restaur
ant. Later, during the afternoon of
Wednesday, witness, Lulkhart, Ennls and
Rasdell went to Mr. Summers' office, and
while they were there "Snyder came in."
Witness was present in Summers' private
office when the conversation between Sny
der and Mr. Summers took place.
Examined by Mr. Summers, the witness
stated that it was Rasdell who said that
Snyder wanted to see Mr. Bummers and
that Mr. Summers replied, "To hell with
Snyder." Snyder was Insistent and came
into fhe private office and said to Mr.
Summers: "What I told you on the wit
ness stand Tuesday wasn't true and I want
to make It right." Mr. Summera told Sny
der to come back In an hour or two.
' Court Asks Question.
Judge Munger here observed that "This
looks as if taking on the nature of an in
vestigation," and he proceeded to question
the witness Odell. He asked Odell it he
did not pay Snyder's bill at the Metro
politan hotel and ask Snyder to come and
stay with him at the Dodge hotel. The
witness denied that he had paid Snyder's
bill at the Metropolitan, neither did he In
vite Snjder to go with him to the res
taurant thftt day, nor did they eat to
gether, nor did he pay Snyder's bill at the
restaurant. He further denied knowledge
of Snyder being In the restaurant 'Wednes
day or that Snyder had talked with him
In the restaurant It was after dinner
that witness met Snyder on the street in
front of the restaurant. It was after this
that the entire party went to Mr. Bum
mers' office. "Yes, a very short time
afterward," suggested Judge Munger.
Lulkhart Oenlee Everything.
Edward Lulkhart. one of the defendants,
was the next witnesa to testify. His entire
testimony was a general and specific denial
of all the allegations In the Indictment
charging him with conspiracy, or that ha
had ever sold liquor to Orr or Featherlegs
for the subsequent sale to Indians, or that
he had ever entered Into an agreement with
Orr. Featherings or anyone else to sell
liquor to Indiana, or that he had ever
knowingly aold liquor V an Indian not a
cltlsen. Referring to the conversation in
the county Jail of February It with Orr.

that nalthor witisa or Ennls had ever sold

"John Sides and the other fellows down In
the office said they would send me to the
penitentiary for two or three years unless
I testified that way, and that I do not think
that Lulkhart and Ennis knew that I sold
liquor to Indians."
Witness was cross-examined by Assistant
District Attorney Rush. He told of his
entering into partnership with Ennls; that
both of them were farmers at the time, and
that they thought saloon keeping would be
a good thing In Homer, and that they went
Into the business. Ennis moved to Homer
to take general charge of the saloon, while
he retrained on his farm, looking after It,
going home every Saturday night Ho
first saw Orr at Rasdell's saloon and after
ward saw him In his own saloon. He
heard that Featherlegs and Orr were boot
leggers, but never knew Orr gave or sold
liquor to Indians In bottles. Orr some
times bought a drink in his saloon, but he
never sold Orr any liquor to sell to In
dians. But little was evolved from the cross-examination
of the defendant Lulkhart yes
terday afternoon, other than a reiteration
of his general denial of all the charges pre
ferred against him. He stated that he did
not go to the county Jail on February 16 to
see Orr, but to see Charles Meaney, and
that his meeting with Orr there was simply
an incident.
Defendant Ennls on Stand.
Sherman Ennls, another of the defend
ants, was the principal- witness of Friday
afternoon. His testimony wns in all re
spects similar to thai- of his partner Lluk
hart, and related to' 'rhelr partnership ar
rangements. He gave a version of the visit
to the Jail on February 16 to see Charles
Meancy and the meeting there with Orr.
On cross-examination he stated that he
never saw more than one or two Indians in
the bull pens back of the saloons, and
denied that he had ever sold liquor to In
dians or that ho had sold liquor to any one
else to sell to Indians, and that he never
made any sort of an agreement with either
Orr or "Featherlegs" to bootleg for him.
He denied that he had ever Bald to Orr
that he had "Sides fixed" so that he would
not Interfere with Orr's bootlegging busi
ness. He admitted that there were some
pony races at Homer on tho Fourth of
July, 1903, and that there were lots of In
dians In town that day. He admitted that
he was indicted In 1903 for Belling liquor to
Indians and that he came to Omaha volun
tarily to plead to the indictment and that
he pleaded not guilty and gave a bond for
his appearance on January 4, 1904, and that
the case against htm was dismissed by As
sistant District Attorney Rush, and never
came to trial. He denied that he had ever
been arrested for selling liquor to Indians,
but that he had put In his voluntary ap
pearance without the form of arrest.
With, the conclusion of Ennls' testimony,
the defense rested its case.
Witnesses In Rebuttal.
Alonco Shaw, "Featherlegs," was called
In rebuttal to the denial of Ennls and Lulk
hart that he had been employed by them to
bootleg for them. The defense objected to
the testimony of the witness being taken,
and the court sustained the objection.
Mr. Bummers here moved that the court
direct the Jury to return a verdict of not
guilty for the defendants, as no evidence
had been produced to show that any act
charged in the indictment had been proven
against the defendants.
The court promptly overruled the motion.
Father Schell was then called by ths
government in rebutttak His testimony
was very bsief and was merely to testify
to the good reputation of the witness
George Ricehlll.
Mr. Summers asked him If he was not
talking with Ricehlll out In the hallway
Just before he wns called In to testify.
Father Schell replied that he did not talk
to the witness nor did he tell him what to
swear to.
With the testimony of Father Schell the
evidence In the caso was closed.
Argnlnents I'nder Way.
The case has thus far occupied six days,
during which forty-three witnesses have
testified for the government and defense
combined.
Assistant District Attorney Rush began
his argument to the Jury at 4:20 o'clock
Friday evening, and concluded at 6:10. Mr.
Summers will open for the defense this
morning at 9 o'clock and District Attorney
Baxter will close for the government.
Each of the speakers will be given three
quarters of en hour for his argument.
