to Jury In the Thaw
Case

NEW YORK, March 1S.-After
avhting an hour and a half against
the introduction in evidence of the
famous affidavit drawn by Attorney
Abraham Hummel at the request of
Stanford White, and with the alleged
consent of Evelyn Nesbit, charging
Harry K. Thaw, with having cruelty
beaten Miss Nesbit on several occa-
sions during their trip through Eu-
rope in 1908, Attorney Delmas for the
defense suddenly switched his tactics
during the Thaw trial today, and de-
manded that the whole alleged affi-
davit go into the record and be read
to the jury.
With the reading of the affidavit,
District Attorney Jerome announced
the people rested their case in re-
buttal
Attorney Delmas Immediately offer
ed in evidence the record of the trial
of Abraham Hummel on the charge of
conspiracy.
District Attorney Jerome did not OBJ
ject, and the defendants lawyer pro-
oeeded to read the entire record.
The affidavit specifies that on num-
erous occasions while in Austria,
Switzerland and Paris, Thaw is al
legged to have beat the young woman,
who was travelling with him as his
wife, until she swooned.
Attorney Delmas had not reached
District Attorney Jerome's remarks at
the Hummel trial when the luncheon
recess was ordered.
1t was to get District Attorney
Jerome's own words denouncing Hum
mel that Attorney Delmas undertook
to read the entire record of the trial.
When Hummel was on the witness
stand he datnied absolutely that in
drawing up the affidavit read today.
and which Hummel said he had die
tated, he had Miss Nesbit refer to
himself several times. At one place
she is purported to say:
Il have. received several letters and
cablegrams from Mr.. Thaw which |
have turned over to my counsel. Mr.,
Abraham H. Hhmmel."
Doctors Hammond, Jelliafe, Pilgarm
Pregory and White swore for the de-
fense this afternoon in answering the
prosecutions hypothetical question
Dr. Hammond, for defense, declared
Thaw did not know the wrong when
he killed White.

Robert Jones, of Bales & Jones, of

20 carloads OF cattle and hogs from
Sites this week to Spokane and in

points will be larger this year than
Tor Several seasons" said Mr.. Jones,
land the market is surely profitable
for the stockmen. The cattle win
tered well, and contrary to reports
made during the severe weather, the
losses have been small.
Reports received by US during the
past two weeks show the losses TO be
smaller than for many years, some
stockmen reporting less than per
cent
THE excellent condition of the stock
at this time of the year is dlAe to the
abundance OF grass last fall and dur
ing the winter, which prepared the
cattle to Withstand the cold weather

While Boosting For the

Rev. w. T. custer preached at the
M. f. church last evening on the fu-
ture of Lewiston. He took as his
theme ancient Capernaum and Its sub
sequent history.
He illustrated the great and ever
increasing resources contiguous to
Lewiston and its advantages. and de-
clared that If nothing else were de-
veloped, the irrigation schemes and
the Lewiston orchard tracts alone
would make 1t a city of $4,000 within
ten years.
But railroads are bound to come,
electric lines and water way Develop
ments" continued Rev. Mr. Custer.
But the chief factor in building up a
city is it's spirit. The general atmos-
phere of town. that which every
stranger feels as soon as he reaches
this place.
Whenever a spirit of helpfuneng
prevails, and all wRo come feel at
home at once and they realize that
those who live here are desirous OF
making all who come feel that this
should be their home, this spirit will
always win.
