The trial of the Haskell-Hearst libel suit which probably will begin next January in federal court Is expected to open to public view a large and Interesting collection of photographic reproductions of letters stolen from the office of the Standard Oil com pany at 2f Broadway, hints of which havo been given by William Randolph Hearst In his campaign through the east. It Is said, however, that Hearst hss read only a few of hundreds of letters of which he Is in possession and that many or them will be offered as evidence for the defense In the libel suit here. Another Interesting feature of the big trial will be the depositions of John D. Rockefeller's lieutenants, which will prob. ably be taken by one or both sides to es tablish or refute the charge that Charles N. Haskell stood in close business rela tions with the oil trust. John D. Archbold Is expected to be one of the principal Wit nesses and his evidence will, Without doubt, be taken by deposition instead of In per son, because of the distance from New York. Archbold's name was attached to roost of the letters read by Mr. Hearst during the campaign and his evidence In the libel suit will be heard with consider able interest by the whole country. Clarence J. Shearn, Hearst's New York lawyer, Is the attorney for Mrs. Howard Oould, whoso divorce case Is attracting the attentlonof the public. The Oould case has kept Mr. Shearn so busy ho has not had time to prepare an answer to the Has kell petition and this led him to ask the answer day be postponed. John W. Battin, Hearst's local attorney, has secured a postponement of the answei day until December 7. Mr. Battin says the case cannot be tried until the January term, because of the large number of depo sitions which will have to be taken at var ious places in the country. That Mr. Hearst could wipe out the entire case in one blow If he wsnted to take ad vantage of technicalities Is the opinion of Mr. Battin. The law requires that In suits against transients the petition must be filed and service had while the defendant is in the county In which the suit is tiled. Mr. Hearst was served on the Overland Limited from the west immediately after It stopped at Union station. The train was three hours late and did not arrive In Omaha until about 11:30 p. m. The suit was filed la district court about 10 o'clock that night. As the Overland Limited requires only about forty minutes, to cross the county It Is believed the petition was filed before the train reached the county border. Mr. Battin has communicated these facts to Mr. Shearn, but the latter has paid no attention to them. From this It Is Inferred that Mr Hearst will make no effort to fight the suit on technicalities. Mr. Hearst's collection of Standard OH letters, some of which will be Introduced In evidence In Omaha, are said to have twen secured through two young men who worked in the Standard Oil office. Ono of them was a colored office boy and the other a file eh rk. The boys. It is said, would ex tract the letters from the files about the time tho office closed, take them to Mr. Hearst's office, where they were photo graphed and then return them by the time the office opened In tho morning.

Speaking of his health, "Uncle Lafe" recently said: "I guess I ought to live to see 95 at least, for I enjoy perfect health.

Thousands of men and women, who have passed the four score mark, tell the same story as Mr. Lemons about what Duffy's Pure Malt Whiskey has done toward renewing their youth and keeping them vigorous, hale and hearty and in possession of all their faculties.

This wonderful remedy has been ex tolled throughout the world for what it has done for suffering humanity.

Parry ot Ban Francisco, assistant grand worthy president of the grand serle of Eagles, stopped over in Omaha Monday night to see John A. Tuthlll In reference to hotel accommodations for the annua! meeting- of the grand aerie which Is to be held in Omaha next year. After a trip around the business center of Omaha, during which time some of the hotels were visited, Mr. Parry said tha Omaha was far better prepared to handle the thousands- who are expected at that tlms than he had anticipated. , "All over this country Omaha clubs are being formed, by means of which the Eagles are saving their money for the trip to Omaha," said Mr. Parry. "And 'we will swoop down upon you by the thou sands. 1 am sure that after we have gone the people of Omaha will be glad we came. Kansas City has an Omaha club ot 1,000 persons and the Eagles of San Francisco organized an Omaha club the night after they returned from the annual convention at Seattle this year. "San Francisco will send a fife and drum corps ot twenty-five persons and more than enough to fill a special train hive al ready signified their intention of coming from Han rranclsco alone. Omaha is cen trally located and ths convention at Omaha is apt to draw mors people than a national political convention." . Uo to the ton fere nee of National Re source Conservation Board aad Corn Rxposltloa la December. I No, President Roosevelt Is not using the big stick on the National corn exposition, neither will he unconsciously Interfere with that great festival by calling the second J meeting of the governors of various states on the matter of the national conservation of resources. While a second meeting of the governors has been called by the National Conserva tion Resources commission for December 8. In Washington, there will be no conflict with "Governor's Day" at the National corn exposition. The date of that day will be so settled that it will suit the conven ience of the governors and may likely be immediately upon their return from Wash ington. Positive assurance of their attendance here has been received from several gov ernors, Including Sheldon of Nebraska, Hoch of Kansas. Cummins of Iowa and Crawford of South Dakota. Governors Buchtel of Colorado and Johnson of Minne sota have also declared that they Intend to to como and there Is every likelihood that they will be here. Expressions of Intent to come if possible have also been received from half a dozen others their letters read as if the writers meant what they say. Country Lift Commission. The second r.vek wiii see the Country Life commission recently apiolntd by Pres ident Roosevelt at the exposition. This body whose commission has created so much discussin will meet the governors in Washington the week before and will tell them what was observed In their swing around the circle for the country life Investigators aro now hard at It and are this week finding out whether southern farmers have bath tubs or not and how often the farmer's wile gets a new hat. Offices of the Corn exposition are being flooded witli entries In various classes of the premium list and among those received Tuesday morning were nine entries, the first In their respeclve classes, from the Iowa State college of agriculture, of Ames, Ia. Word was also received from that Institution that Miss Neala Knowles, an authority on nutrition, will give a series of lectures In the Model Kitchen department of the exposition. Miss Knowles' battlecry Is that "proper feeding of children is the foundation of good citizenship." She will talk upon a variety of themes relative to her main subject, upon almost everything In fact except how to fatten children with out feeding them. NO TROUBLE OVER, THE FENCE Samuel Baaman Withdraws Ills Ob jections ta the Corn Show Enclosure. Opposition on the part of Samuel Bauman. proprietor of the Oma hotel, to the closing of Fifteenth street tor the Na tional Corn exposition, his been with drawn. With complete understanding on each side of the position of the other, the question has been amicably ended. The difference arose originally because of a lack of such' understanding, and with mutual enlightenment the matter Is ob viated. It may be stated that there was no disposition on the part of Mr. Bauman either to hold up the exposition or to stand In the way of a project whose welfare Is of Interest to every citizen. On the con trsry, friends of Mr.. Bauman assert that he Is as public spirited as the next man. With due recognition of the exposition officials of his position In regard to the closing of Fifteenth stnwt, all opposition, is withdrawn. ECOJiOMV OIL UAS BIHNER.
