It's the Strict Truth When We Say That
Genuine French
Kid Trefousse Gloves
are ld In Omaha only by Thompson Deldcn d Co,
These are made of genuine real kid skina and every pair
bears the name spelled out "Trefousse," not simply the
letter UT".
If you want the genuine real kid Trefousse, look for
the name. "We never advertise the facts other than they are.
No effort is made to confuse or mislead the public. That's
why we always advertise the strict truth. No guess work
about qualities, either. Trefousse & Co. sell a lambskin
glove which are sold to any dealer that wishes to buy. We
have them also. Our regular $2.75 Trefousse Lamb Skin
Gloves are advertised by some stores as "Special" at $2.79
reduced from $3.75. "We never have asked more than $2.75
and we don't use the much abused word "special" either.

Christian Science BUI Killed.
The senate this afternoon killed H. R.
K8, known as the Christian Science bill
and backed by the State Board of Health.
The bill required ait practitioners of Chris
tian Science to report contagtoue diseases
the same as physician, and attached tha
same penalties to them as to physicians If
they failed to report these disease. The
majority In favor of Indefinitely postponing
the bill was large. Epperson of Clay made
the principal argument against It on the
grounds It would give Christian Science
practitioners legal standing, which they do
not have now.
Many Bills Are Slaughtered.
Behind locked doors the senate late this
aftarhoon voted to indefinitely postpone all
bills not carrying appropriations except
those which have already ' been advanced
to third reading. The action afreets a num
ber of bills of more or less importance and
against which some powerful lobby work
has been done during the laat few daya.
At 6:30 o'clock the aenate went into execu
tive aesslon to consider the re-appointment
of Warden Beemer and after the appoint
ment had been confirmed and the executive
aeaalon closed it took up the question of
the Indefinite postponement of the bills
not yet acted upon.
The doors remained locked during this
discussion, , which was somewhat heated
and no reporters or spectators were ad
mitted. Senator Aldrlch made the motion
to indefinitely postpone all bills except ap
propriations not yet acted upon and Byrnes
of Platta offered a substitute to make It
only bills not on the sifting file. King de
manded a roll sail and' the substitute mo
tion was' lost by vote of 13 to 17. The
vote on the' Aldrlch motion was "a tie,
standing 16 to IS. Lieutenant Governor
Hopewell did hot care to decide the tie
so Senator Hanna changed his vote, carry
ing the motion by 1 to -14. Some of the
senators afterward explained it : waa ' an
overalght that the doors were not opened
after the executive session closed.'
By the action taken - by the noun and
senate In Indefinitely postponing all. bills
not on third reading, many important bills
were alaughtered, among them being the
Harrison bill ta reduce Pullman rates 9)
per cent; the Quackenbush reciprocal de
murrage bill; tha maximum freight rata
bill on oil; the stock yards and the live
stock commission blla. Many members are
not satisfied and an effort will be made
In the morning in both house and senate
to secure a reconsideration of some of the
Important measures.

RAPHE GETS AX INDORSEMENT
Prlends and 'Selganora Approvo His
t"nr- In Lealalatnra.
(From Staff Correapondeat.)
LINCOLN. ' April -.-t8peclal.)-W, B.
Raper ef Parent has bto presented with
the following from some of his friends and
neighbors: " v- . .
The undersigned, former rewldente of
Pawnee county, and old friends and neigh
bors of W. H Raper, would call your at
tention to the following editorial which
has appeared In the Unculn DeJly News:
"This legislature tins been notsble for
Its divided delegations, not with particular
regard to party lines, but ae to the way
the members have voted throughout the
eersion. In a good bi.n iostw, i.r i j,j e
sentatlves from the same county might
Just as well have paired on all questions
and gone home, for the record ahows that
they killed each other's votes, aa a general
rule.
"ITobahly the most pronounced division
In this list has existed between the Pawnee
men, Raper lining up at all times with the
progressive element, and Stelnauer putting
his vote Into the pot with the crowd that
wanted to back-track on platform prom
ises." In connection with this we wish to ex
press our admiration of the work of W.
B. Raper In this legislature. He has been
so .uniformly right and consistent In his
course during the Session that he haa at
tracted the attention and received the ap
proval of the general public here, and, we
believe. In all parts of the state. He haa
at all times stood for the welfare of the
public and for the redemption of the
pledges of bis party. In this he has often
been opposed actively by the balance of
the delegation from his county. His good
record under these discouragements again
proves his Integrity and fitness for pulllo
position.

CHURCH MERGER SUGGESTED
Baptists and IMsclples May I'nJte
Organisations as Result of
Present Discussion.
CINCINNATI, April I.-Wltb. a proposi
tion before it looking toward tha merger
of two great church . organisations, the
ninth 'annual congress of the DiSclples of
Christ met here today. .
At the 190S congress, in Indianapolis, a
committee of ten was appolited to make
overtures and formulate plan for "closer
relations" between the Baptist and the
disciples church. It is understood that tha
committees' report will advocate the
merger.
Refusal to merge the educational with
the home and foreign, missionary societies
of the church and a plea for 2,003 young
preachers to fill unoccupied pulpits were
t)e features of tha meeting of the Ameri
can Education srolety, which preceded the
opening of the congress. The society
merger propoaltgon was voted down almost
tmmedistely.
The merger 'was fought on the ground
tha mlsalonary society funds being given
for a speotrlc purpose cannot be applied
In educational purposes and that rompll
catlona likely would arise If the educational
work, comprising some forty Christian col
leges In various parts of the tijuntry,
should be placed in control of the mission
ary societies.
Beftjre the Educational society the short,
age' In the number of ministers was the
principal topic, it being shown -that there
ave about l.SiO.OOO members in the Chris-
tlan churches of the country and only
about 7,000 ministers. The vacant pulplta
already number over t.OOrt and the number
is constantly Increasing.

THAW VERDICT THIS MORNING
Liosxr Commission Will Ecport Iti Find
ing. U Court Early.
DEFENDANT IS IN FINE SPIRITS
Ha rnderaroes t lose Examination
for Two Honrs and Is
Elated nt showing; Ho
' Made.
NEW TORK, April 3. Tomorrow brings
another critical stage in the case of Harry
K. Thaw, when the slayer of Stanford
White either will be officially proclaimed
inaane and ordered sent to a state asylum
or his trial will be resumed before Justice
Fltagerald upon the finding of the lunacy
commission that the defendant Is at this
tlms capable of rightly understanding his
own position, of appreciating the nature of
the charges against him and of rationally
advising with hla counsel. The commission
completed Its work tonight and will be
be ready to report to Justice Fltagerald
tomorrow.
Thaw underwent a thorough mental and
physical examination' for more than two
hoars this afternoon. In this last crucial
test he was entirely alon before the com
mission, even the ' district attorney and
members of his own counsel being barred.
When the three membera of the commission
Davjd McCIure, Peter B. Olney and Dr.
Leopold Putsel had completed their final
examination they shook hands with Thaw
in a most cordial manner. He went back
to his cell with a light heart and declared
later to hla counsel that he felt the com
mission would surely declare him sane to
morrow The attorneys shared their
client's optimistic view of the situation.
District Attorney Jerome would not com
mit himself In any way. Thaw's counsel
declared they were ready to proceed with
the caae tomorrow, and believed Mr. Pel
mas might begin his summing up address
before noon. In that event they sa,ld Mr.
Jerome would address the Jury on Friday
and a verdict might be expected before the
week end.
There is little or no likelihood that the
report of the oommlaalon ver will be
made public If the decision favors Thaw,
Justice Fltagerald will merely order the
trial to proceed without any reference
whatsoever to the Interruption which began
two weeks ago. Should the decision be
against Thaw, Juatice Fltsgerald would
have to quote but briefly from the formal
finding of the commission in his order com
mitting the young man to an asylum. If
committed Thaw would have to remain In
the asylum until declared sane by the
superintendent of the institution. Then he
would be brought here and tried again.
Two Alienists Testify.
The last public session of the commission
was held this morning to hear the test
mony of two more alienists. Dr. rlefrn-
dorf of Mlddletown. Conn., for the orose-
cutlon, and Dr. Charles G. Wagner of
Blnghamton, N. T., for the defense. Dr.
Dleffendorf gave an academic decision
based on assumed facts and writings of
the defendant, and declared that Thaw was
Incompetent. Dr. Wagner said he had
talked with the prisoner almost dally for
nearly two months and has been unable to
find anything upon .which to predicate an
opinion of mental unsoundness nt this
time. He was not willing to go on record,
however, as specifically declaring Thaw to
be In every sense a sane man. He said he
had not sufficient facts before him, or suf
ficient time in which to reach so oosltlve a
conclusion. Dr. Wagner repeated many of
his recent conversations with Thaw and
gave the defendant's ideaof his predlca-
pient. Thaw declared that he realised his
position today, was serious. . He thought.
however, his attorneys, had made such
good prosrress during the trial that he was
tn a much better, position than when it waa
begun. He said he had no delusion now
mat ras act was an act of Providence.
' Thaw Questioned Abont Delusions.
When the commission began Its rrlvata
examination of the defendant,' the members
questioned him particularly about this ds
luslon and others from which it had been
testified he was suffering at the time he
shot and killed Stanford White. Dr. Putsel
or the commission conducted the brief
physical examination to which Thaw waa
subjected. 'He was given all the standard
tests of the reflexes, the onnlls of the
eyes, the Romberg test ror evidences of
locomotor ataxia, etc. Thaw la said to
have Undergone all tha tests In a thr
oughly satisfactory manner) The alienists
testirying ror the defense and who con
ducted a much more searching physics!
test than that undertaken by the commis
sion today declared they were unable to
find any abnormal traces. Dr. B. D. Evsns
said there was an unusual bump near the
base of the skull and told of Thaw's
fluctuating pulse, declaring It was the most
extraordinary he had ever met with in hts
medical experience. The rate of beats often
ould change four times in a minute.
Mrs. Evelyn Nesblt Thaw waa nresent
during most of the public sessions. At
torney Del mas was not present today, but
at the end of the inquiry Thaw aent him
a note by special messenger, telling him
to be ready to proceed with hla summing
up arguments tomorrow.

CHEYENNE, Wyo.. April l.-(Bpeclal.-The
annual meeting of the Wyoming Btock
Growera' association struck a rock at once
whan the applications ot a number of stock
men and stock qompanleM came up for con
sideration. Borne of the cattlemen objected
to the admission of sheepmen, but it was
pointed out that a large number of the
members owned sheep as well as cattle. A
vote was taken on the proposition to admit
aheepmen, and carried, . President Irvlna
voting elahty-elght proxies In favor of ad
mitting the L. U. Slleep company. The cat
tlemen called attention to the constitution
and bylaws, which provide that three black
balls are sufficient to reject an applicant
for membership, and that more than the
required number of black balls had been
cast. Some very bitter speeches were made
by the cattlemen, and these Were replied to
In kind by the sheepmen present, and also
by a number of cattlemen who took sides
with the sheepmen. The charge was made
that the sheepmen had attempted to gain
control of the convention so as to pass res
olutions against .federal control, leasing and
fencing of the public domain, but tha charge
was denied.
Application Withdrawal.
When it seemed that tha-stockmen would
come to blows and that nothing could avert
the transfer of the fights of the range to
the" floor of the convention hall. a repre
sentative c-f the I U. Sheep company with
drew its application for membership and
President Irvine quickly, declared a recess.
The discussions in. this eonvenftion .indi
cate clearly that, the feeling of bitterness
upon tha part of cattlemen . against , the
sheepmen is rapidly disappearing; and an
nually the sheepmen gather new converts
from the rankg of the cattlemen and soon,'
if these conditions continue, there will be
no feeling of bitterness between tbe two in
terests. It was noticeable that the only
ones who were at all bitter against the
sheep Interests were a few small owners
who are deepeet In their Ideas and who are
usually the last to admit their mistakes. At
one time these men threatened to disrupt
the organisation, to withdraw and organise
a new association, and they may do so yet,
although the action will in no way affect
the Wyoming Stock Growers association,
which is the oldest organisation of Its kind
In the state.
