GEN. RULkELEY WELLS

Boise, Idaho, May 20.-Among the
witnesses in the Haywood case who
arrived last evening is Gen. Bulkeley
Wells, of Colorado, who was in COM
mand of the train on which Meyer.
Haywood and Pettibone were brought
to Idaho from Colorado after their
arrest on extradition warrants.
Court opened at 1000 O'Clock to-
day, a1d the defense proceeded with
examination of jurOrs.
The number of talesmen available
to fill the constantly occurring vacan-
cies in the jury tnat is being formed
to try Haywood continues to shrink,
and it now seems certain that anOth-
er special venire of fifty or one nun-
dred talesmen must be issued early
this week. Some of the counsel were
of the opinion today that the last OF
the special veniremen would be
reached this afternoon, and that it
would be necessary for the court to
take AN adjournment to give time for
the sImmoning of a new special We
nire. Shortly before noon today the
defense exercised its fifth perempto-
ry challenge. Ten peremptory chal
lenges nave now been used, and %
talesmen remain to be examined.

The American Widow.

The widow in America has become,
in way. a dignitary She holds po-
sitlon peculiarly her own. Her wild
ow's cap becomes a sort OF crown
and her crope and sables robes OF
royalty.
The widow posses at once the
poise and dignity Of a married wo-
man and an Independence infinitely
greater than that OF the spinster. She
has her own backgroud and usuan,
her own pocketbook. That gives pow
err She Is used, besides, to r free in
terchange OF thought with men.
Experience has taugh her much OF
their ways and likings, In fact, in
America she has more scope to be
charming than women OF any other
class. And for widows to have ar
rived at this state argues n high de-
gree of civilization.
In less advanced countries the state
OF widowhood has no connection with
either charm or fascination. II means,
probably, the loss of both and re-
tirement from all the pleasures OF
life.
