FIRST BAPTIST

We had a good day last Sunday,
though there was an element of
doubt in the minds OF some as to
whether there would be preaching
or not. We should cultivate the
spirit of going to church to worship
God, rather than to hear some one
preach Let US all be ON the job
next Sunday. Sunday School is at
9:45 A. M. Our Superintendent
is doing his best and we have a
corps of mighty fine teachers. We
need a lot more scholars, We
should have 125 every Sunday
The hours for preaching are II
A. M. and 7 P. NJ. We give the
public a most cordial invitation to
worship with Us.
Sam P. Gott, Pastor.

HARRY IHAW IS
 DEFENDANT IN
 DIVORCE SUIT St. Louis Woman Files; Ac- tion Against the Slayer of
 Stanford White. 2' ASKS FOR CUSTODY
 OF LITTLE GIRL Who Conducts Candy Store. Says Thaw Married Her Under Name of Harry K. Thaw Clemmons, and
 Took Child Away. 7,

St. Louis, April 12.-Another wife of Harry K. Thaw, who shot Stanford White, came forward today. She brought suit for divorce against him her name appearing in the legai pa pers as Mrs. Christina Thaw. She keeps a candy store in St. Louis.
 In the petition, filed by her, lawyer Verne G. Lacey, she asks for main tenance and for the custody of her child. named Lady Gwendolyn Clem. mons, for she ayers that Thaw mar ried her in Buffalo, N. Y., on Cocto. Der 6, 1902, under the name of Harry Kendall Thaw Clemmons.
 A month after the baby was born she says Thaw took the child away from her and she has not seen 1t since.
 The lawyer who brings this suit is reputable member of the bar here. It happens that Evelyn Nesbit Yhaw whom Harry Thaw is now suing for divorce, is in town filling a theatrical engagement. Nevertheless, the suit is not regarded as a press agent stunt for her. Her deposition will be taken tomorrow. She says she never heard of the plaintiff.
 Harry Thaw himself is said to be in Florida, at an address unreachable by telephone or telegraph.
 Lawyer Lacey, who is making more or less of mystery of his client, says she is native of Alton, H., and that she has. supported herself by her own efforts in St.. Louis for the past 12 years.

 Earlier in the day, the Germans at tempted two attacks, one in the Dead Man hill district and the other in the Caillette woods. In the former, de- spite the lavish use of flaming liq- uids and tear-produeing shells, they were repulsed at every point, accord ing to the French statement At the latter place, they claim considerable gains in several directions.
 The assault on the west bank of the Mouse was launched in the early morning. Strong forces carrying flame projectors advanced on the for est patch known as Caurettes woods, south of Cumieres. The attack broke down under the French machine gun and barrier fire. which poured from the forest in a solid sheet of flame

Here the French line which describes an arc about two miles in length from a point south of Douau mont on the outskirts of the village of Vaux. The Germans have suffered severely in attacks on the two Hanks, despite the use of noXious gas clouds, columns of fire and tear-shells, as we'll as continuous bombardment of high calibre shells.
 In their night attack, they appar- entity have made gains against both these Hanks and violent battle is expected to develop on the entire twomile front. the vital point on the northwest of Verdun, within the next 24 hours. On the opposite bank of the river, a great drive on hill No. BOA, as we'll as on the remaining po- sitions held by the French in the Dead Man region, is believed to be in pre- paration despite the repulses suffered by the crown prince in the last three days.
