We Lave just received 1,100 new style Hoys' Winter Suits and Overcoats, purchased on our buyer's recent trip to
New York and we make a very conservative statement when we say this is the most fortunate purchase of the year. Being

one-half price, in order to give his entire attention to spring and summer garments.
The overwhelming proof of this extraordinary value will be apparent to the most inexperienced eye, for in offering this
clothing as the greatest bargain of the season we are making only a very modest claim. The suits are made of pure
worsteds, Scotch cheviots, cassimeres and blue serges, in the latest approved styles. Colorings are the new shades of
brown, olive, elephant gray, etc., etc., and linings and trimmings are positively the best ever used for boys' clothing.
These suits sewed with silk and linen thread, all seams taped and triple-sewed, have padded shoulders, hand felled col
lars and haircloth fronts, in fact they are just as well made as men's clothing.
Overcoats are made of fine Scotch cheviots, cassimeres and blue chinchillas, in the correct styles for boys, as pic
tured above. The three-quarter length coats are wool lined and all are trimmed with
the very best material. The colors are the newest shades of brown, olive, gray, etc.,
in checks, plaids and striped effects. Any one of tllese garments will not only prove
a very beautiful but also a very useful Christmas gift and is sure to please both the
boy and the parent who pays the bill. They'll sell quickly, so be one of the first to
make a selection at this unparalleled low price of

OMAHA ORATORIO SOCIETY.
With the election of J. Q. Kelley, I. L.
Van Sant and W. C. Lambert to the
board of directors of the South Omaha
Country club against T. M. Sherwood,
K. V. Arnold and John O'llern of the op
position, the "dry" faction won a de
cisive victory in the annual meeting of
the stockholder! last night. The ques
tion of having a buffet at the club has
been agitated for some weeks and some
of tho younger members, as well as some
of the veterans, had worked themselves
Into a state of considerable heat over
the matter. On this question the candi
dates therefore naturally grouped them
selves Into two well-defined parties and
It was known that the election of cither
group- would be an expression of senti
ment for or against the buffet.
When the club was organised this policy
was laid down firmly, that there was to
Le no buffet and the club made Its
strongest appeal for members among the
clutss of people who would oppose the
buffet and the dispensation of liquor. It
was predicted that the finances of the
club could never be met. But the finan
cial report of the first year showed that
with hearty support as the club received
it was possible. With the reopening of
the question it became apparent that
large portion of the membership would
tuke firm ground against it. On the floor
of the session last night the question was
not argued directly, but considerable talk
was directed over the backs of the can
didates In that direction. A few re
marks of asperity were heard, due to the
excitement of the moment, but nothing
will mar the general harmony It is be
lieved. The club now has a paid-up membership
of 176 and during the last year has de
veloped more mature conditions. The
grounds will Improve rapidly each year
and the resort will be endeared to nu
merous people.
The report of the committees showed
advancement in all departments and
steadily more Interest In a wide range
suspicious ! of sports. The report showed that the
financial end had been met to all In
tents. It Is believed there is a deficit
of something like t cents.
The members offered suggestions to the
'board of directors as to how to couJuit
a more satisfactory cafe and improve
ments will be chiefly on the grounds

The South Omaha hog market handled
over 18.0UO hogs yesterday. This is the
largest ruu for many months. The com
mission men were pretty busy during the
entire forenoon getting the shipments con
signed and sold. The packers were liberal
buyers. Armour & Co. took nearly 1,500
of the receipts and the ether packers pro
portionately. The prices slipped down 10
to 15 cents per hundred, but at that of
fered a belter market than any of tha
river points. The heavy receipts brought
the year's Increase up to IW.Jus over 1907.
It Is evident that the receipts of hogs may
before the close of the year easily exceed
190? by 2&0.0U0. This will represent about
10 per cent gala for the year. If such Is
reached the commission men Willi feel
satisfied. The southern markets, howevsr,
iv ill show an increase of about 10 per cent
Sad Case ot Desertion.
A case of desertion of unusually pitiful
kind was brought to the notice of the
police Wednesday evening by the coming
of Mrs. Fred Snyder from Chicago to look
up her lost husband. The police made an
effort to find Snyder, whom she thought
was working at the Cudahy packing plant.
He got letters there sent In the care of
the company. When she arrived, however,
and Inquired for him no one of that name
was found on the payroll of the company.
He had evidently been working under an
assumed name and after sending the wo
man flO and directing her to come to
South Omaha he left her to shift for her
self. She has a boy and two little girls
and needs support more than usually at
present. The woman was almost in de
spair. The police referred her to the
county commissioners and It Is thought
they will provide transportation for her
to Dos Moines, where she has relatives.
Trace ot M Wslna; Ctrl.
The police have found a trace of Mary
Slegel, who was known here as Qreaslda
Pressenhoffer, a girl of 14 or 15, who took
Sl5 out of a trunk belonging to the people
for whom she worked, the family of A.
Closer, Thirty-sixth and U streets. They
run a bakery and had hired the girl on a
recommendation. After she had been a do
mestic a few days, while the family was
absent, she took $125 from the trunk and
disappeared. Since then the police have
been working on the case. They have re
ceived a tip that the girl Is In Tabor, 8. D.,
or at least can be traced from that point.

FIFIY YEARS' CHURCH LIFE
Lutherans Celebrate Anniversary of
First Church in Nebraska.
DR. KUHLMAN CHIEF SPEAKER
Northern Holland was the scene of an
evening's mental travel with Frank K.
Roberson Thursday. As usual, the beauti
ful pictures. Including both s'ereoptlcon
and motion views, were one of the most
satisfying features of the travelogue, tha
life of the common people being shown in
all Its qualntness, peculiarity of costume
and novel activity.
The usual topography of the country,
five-sixths of which Is wator covored and
below sea level, gave the lecture and pic
tures an added charm. Views showing
moving sails apparently In the midst uf
green fields aroused gasps of astonishment,
and many other scenes of human Interest,
architecture and buildings. Including the
quaint windmills, picturesque waterways
and the proverbial domestic and municipal
cleanliness, were thrown on the screen.
Mr. Roberson's route ot travel on the
trip which furnished the material for last
night's travelogue was somewhat out ot
the ordinary and beaten paths, having
been made In an automobile with the idea
of studying the country and peoplo, rather
than the cities, buildings and other points
more Intimately known at the present
time. A large audience testified to the
popularity of the travel lecturer and hia
subject with Omaha residents. Nxt
Thursday night south Holland will be the
subject of the travelrgue.
Wma Second Missionary Sent by the

Established Church.
Fifty years ago the first Lutheran church
in Nebraska was established In Omaha and
the first congregation was organised with
Rev. H. W. Kuhns as pastor and this
event is being celebrated in Omaha this
week by the Lutherans of Omaha and tlio
surrounding count, y. A meeting of tha
Lutheran ministers as well as the church
DeODle was held Thursday night at the
Kountze Memorial church, with Rev. Dr.
Kuh.man, the second Lutheran missionary
to Nebraska, as the principal speaker. A
banciuet will be held at the Rome this
evening.
Fifty years of Lutheranlsm In Nebraska,
as well as the fiftieth anniverBa.y of the
founding of the first Lutheran church in
Omaha, is being celebrated. On tho site
of the Omaha National banx in the Metho
dist church edifice on December 5, 1S58,
Rev. Mr. Kuhns organised the first church.
The follow. ng persons presented them
selves for membership at the organization:
Augustus Kountze, Miss Clementine
Kountse, Mrs. Adeline Ruth, Daniel Red
man, Mrs. Eliza Redman, Joseph Redman,
M s. Mary Jane Redman, Uriah Bruner,
George Stark, Miss Catherine Probst,
George Horsog and Dr. Augustus Rocdei,
after which on the same day were added
Mr. Frederick Schneider and Mrs. Lida
Schneider In all fourteen members.
At the dose of the sc. vice an election ot
officers was held, and the fifst council ot
the Lutheran church In Omaha consisted
of Daniel Redman and Uriah Bruner, el
ders, and Augustus Kountxe and Dr. Au
gustus Roeder, deacons. These officers
wero Installed on the following Sabbath.
At a subsequent meeting a committee was
aj pointed to draft a constitution and ac
cording to this con.stltjt.on the church be
came known as "Kmanuel's Evangelical
Lutheran church of Omaha."
Omaha was at that time only a little
Indian trading village and when Rev. Mi.
Kuhns arrived he could find only nine
Lutherans In the town. He was receiving
as missionary a salary of $500 per year and
the cost of the necessaries of life was so
high here then that at tho end of his first
year ho found himself $150 In debt. For a
number of years he managed to make ends
meet by the most rigid economy.
Erection of First Chnrch.
The second year the congregation wor
shiped In the Congregational church, then
located on the west side of Sixteenth
street between Farnam and Douglas. At
the end of tho second year tho congrega
tion numbered fifty people. A church and
parsonage was later erected on the site
of itlie Millard hotel, the church and
parsonage being completed within a year,
being dedicated on February 1G, 1S2. The
bell In the belfry, wl.ich was the first
church bell In Omaha, was for a number
of years used as a fire alarm bell.
In February, 1HK1, It was decided to build
much larger structure on the northeast
corner of Sixteenth and Harney street.
The Millard hotel property was sold for
$16,000 and with the proceeds the new
church was started. It cost over $30,000,
exclusive of the site, which was bought
for $7,000.
The corner of Sixteenth and Harney was
sold to Judge James Neville in l'ol for
130,000 and .With this mot ey the new and
beautiful edifice ai Twenty-sixth und
Farnam streets was built at a cost of
$100,000. The entire plant cost $124,000. The
present pastor. Rev. J. E. Hummon, ts at
