HAYwOOD'S TRIAL.
May Result ia the Murder Of Idaho's|
Governor or the Chief Witness
for the Prosecution.


Boise, Idaho, May 3.--Counsel fol
prosecution and defense in the Steun
enberg murder case have settled
down to their final preparation work
and there is every reason for believ.
ing that the trial of William Haywood
will be commenced Thursday next
1t would seem that a majority oi
the community had assumed a judicial
attitude toward the case and had dis.
ciplined itself. But under the surface
there is a strong undercurrent Of ap.
prehension. Violence is the ever pres
ent fear. The position of the prison.
ers and their activity through years
of bitter warfare, the dissension over
their arrest in Colorado and removal
to Idaho, the rally of thousands Of
workingmen to their support and the
radical propaganda undertaken In
their behalf, together with the intense
feeling against the Mine Owners as
sociation, have served to make the
case in the minds Of thousands class
contest rather than trial for alleged
murder.
In few minds Is there belief that
Haywood, Meyer and Pettibone, their
friends or the men affiliated with
them in labor union circles would ap.
prove any violence at this time. Such
action, 1t is believed, would be fatal
error. But there is a general fear
that from the ranks Of the violent
radicals there may come a man or
men desperate enough to attempt as.
sassination, or that the agitation may
give sinister inspiration to some
crank.
Letters that threaten every form OF
violence are pouring into Boise from
all over the country and most Of them
are directed to Gov. Frank r. Good
ing, who Is made largely to bear the
brunt of all that this case invites. De-
tectives, police and friends of the
governor generally are on the alert
and he has finally altered his routine
movements to point Of Offering least
exposure compatible with the per
formance of duty. Gov. Gooding may
be in no danger, but he and his
friends live in dangerous atmosphere
Another man similarly marked Is
Harry Orchard, alleged to be the as
sassin hired by the three prisoners
and whose alleged confession Is the
basis of the states case. Perfectly
reasonable men here look at the wit
ness chair in the court house, shake
their heads and tell you that Harry
Orchard will die in 1t. They tell you
too, that IL he were turned out ol
prison tomorrow his corpse would be
found within week.

Boys Idea Of Breathing.

Prof. Emil Otto, the German cduca-
tor, read at dinner in Milwaukee
an essay on Breath" that a Milwau-
kee school teacher had given him as
curiosity.
The essay, the work of boy of
nine, ran as follows:
Breath is made Of air. We breathe
with our lungs. our lights, our livers
and our kidneys If II wasn't for our
breath we would die when we slept.
Our breath keeps the life a-going
through the nose when we arc asleep.
Boys that stay In room all day
should not breathe. They should
wait Til they got outdoors. Boys In
a room make careonicide. Carboni-
eide is the most poisonous of living
things. dead or alive"
