D. Haywood, secretary and treasurer of the miners organiza- ton. makes the best impression on first acquaintance. says Oscar King Davis, the Boise correspondent of the New York Times. He k Il big, sturdy fellow, with q square head and solid jaw. He has lost the sight of his right eye and has developed q curious trick of turn ing his face away as if to conceal his misfortune and rolling his left eye around to keep track of what is going oD. It gives him q queer, unnaturally furtve expression, not at all in keeping with his straightforward manner when personally addressed
 Haywood is a Sc ali,t and an ideal ist He is fond of readiu@ md devotcs much of his time to it, mt, king it both recreation and study. Ills friends say that although he is deeply concerned in making the most vigorous fight possi- ble t6 escape conviction. he has not lost sight of the fact that the death penalty in this case would make him d martyr of organized labor.
 But Charles II. Mover, president of the federation, and George A. Petit bone find no such compensation in their situation. They are both more praC tical men, desperately intent on mak- ing q winning defense. Mover WAS the brains of the Western Federation of Miners and it's chief organizer He $ of the labor leader type and always ex- tremely popular with the regular labor union man. He makes a fiery speech and carries bis audience with him. Ike has tie reputation of being the best man on his feet in the ranks of organ ized labor today. Pettibone in appear ance fits the description reported to have been given of him by Harry Or charl. He is a slight man, below the average height, with weak chin and tLc Es9od natured grin that goes with ii,

 Mover is a tall, dark man, with a narrow face and small, deep set eyes and high, long nose. His long lower jaw ends in sharply pointed chin and altogether his face gives the i'm pression of incisiveness which accords with his reputation.
