Life Is Passed in Boise Court.

Boise, Idaho, July %. Jones H
Hawley, leading counsel for the State
of Idaho, presenting the first OF the ar
guments to the jury in the case
against William d. Haywood, closed
Saturday after speaking for nearly
eight hours, distributed over three
sessions of court
From time to time Haywood took
copious notes in a small book and fire,
quently made suggestions to n or
other of his counsel, sever of whom
were in court.
Throughout the day Mr.. Hawley
used an almost conversational tone.
The analysis of testimony in contra
diction of Orchards story concluded
frequently with the denunciation OF
witness after witness as a willful per.
jurer.
E%xonerates Rank and File.
Mr.. Hawley's peroration was impress.
sive. He said he did not charge that
a majority, or even hat many of the
Western Federation of Miners were
criminals, but that the evil deeds OF
the officers and the scum of the organi.
zation had brought discredit on the
rank and file.
With the utmost elaboration the
leading counsel for the state charged
willful perjury against several wit
nesses He argued the truth ri Or
chard's story and said that two men In
particular might have been brought to
contradict him, but that the defense
was afraid to produce either Pettibone
or Adams, and he said Adams haC
been brought to Boise from Jail in
Shoshone county in order that the de
Tense might use him as a witness.
White to the lips, Clarence Darrov
sprang into action.
THE statement is false and counse
knows it," he shouted.
Hawley took a step closer TO the de
tense table and sock his finger close t,
Darrow's face, and said:
When counsel says that, he utters
deliberate falsehood."
The atmosphere here was charge,
with danger. Sheriff Hodgins stoo
up alert, and his deputies drew i
closer, but Judge Wood, with a shar
command and insistent warning, patel
ed up a temporary peace.

Defense Rests It's Case.

Boise, Idaho. July pa day Of ar
guments on the admissibility OF points
of evidence followed the announce
ment from the defense that they had
no further witnesses to offer in behalf
of Haywood. The jury was not
brought into court, Judge Wood hav-
ing been informed by counsel of their
decision to rest without offer of sur
rebuttal. Clarence barrow spoke for
an hour and a half in the morning
session. Senator Borah replied in the
afternoon and was followed by E. F..
Richardson. Judge Wood will proba-
bly, his decision this morn
ing.

by proof of the deportation of miners
and the employment of detectives in

HawIey Addresses the Jury.

Judge Hawley, leading counsel for
the state, spoke for two hours and hf'
teen minutes at the afternoon session.
Mr.. Hawley's address was at times ell
~oquently impassioned, but yet a plain
analysis of the case. He character
lied the case as the most important
ever given to a jury in the United
States" He denounced the defendant
and his alleged demonstrators as the
worst band of criminals that ever in
tested any section of this country"
Calls Orchards Story True.
Mr.. Hawley described Orchards
story as truthful, not only because OF
the manner in which it was told, but
because it had been corroborated in
every important detail. Mr.. Hawley
concluded with the statement that al
ready he had shown enough to con,
Wet, and that any juryman not willing
to convict on the evidence connecting
the conspirators with the blowing UP
of the Bunker Hill and Sullivan con.
contractor in 1899 and the explosion al
the Vindicator mine in 1903 alone
sought only to rid himself of an un'
pleasant duty to his state"
Mr.. Hawley will continue his arsu'
ment to-day.

John Franklin RiXey.
John Franklin Rixey was born in
culpeper county, August 1, 1854, a
son Of Presley I2lXey, wealthy
prominent and influential citizen OF
the county. Mr.. Rixey was a boy of
very tender years during tho War
between the States, but he had most
vivid recollections of the stirring
scenes enacted in and around Culpeper,
which was one OF the most important
points In several OF tho campaigns of
tho Army of Northern Virginia. Young
Rixey got his primary education In
tho common schools of the neighbour
hood. and then went to the University
of Virginia, from which institution he
graduated with honor. He entered
upon the practice Of the law at Gull
pepper, and from the first took an
honorable position among his breth-
rem.
He was Commemorative Attorney
OF Culpeper county for twelve years,
and to this day citizens of the county
speak Of Mr.. Rixey as having been q
model prosecutor, asking for convic-
lions where he thought the accused
guilty, and asking the jury to acquit
when he did not think the evidence
warranted conviction. The result was
that Culpeper juries came to have
such confidence in him that 1t was
hard to win verdict of acquittal

There are three critical stages in d
woman's life which leave their mark
in her career. The first Of these stages
is womanhood, or the change from u
care free girl to budding womanhood,
The second Is motherhood, and the
third is Change of Life.
Perils surround each of these stages,
and most of the misery that comes
to women through Ill health dates
from one or another Of these inn
portant crises.
Women should remember that Lydia

carried thousands of young girls over
the critical period of puberty, has
