Boise, Idaho, May 4.-Owen
Barnes, formerly of Victor, Colo,
now of Goldfeld, arrived in the city
today. He. is a member of the
Western Federation of Miners and
was prominent in that organization
during the Cripple Greek troubles.
It is reported that be is to be wit
ness for the defense it the Meyer.
Haywood trials. He spent much
of the time today in visiting Mrs.
Haywood.
Several socialists are now in
Boise, who have b. en- sent from va
rious places to sit as socialist ju.
ry in the trial to report the pro-
ceedings to their home orgauiza-
tons.
George H. Shoaf, representing
the Appeal to Reason, who has been
in correspondence with Eugene V.
Debs, was asked today if the latter
still intended to visit Idaho to at
tend the trial of Haywood. He re.
piled:
HE has made no change in his
previous plans, to my knowledge.
I believe he will show up here nex9
week."
DO you think Dsbs would come
out here, after being advised by
one of the lie ,ding attorneys for the
defense to stay away if he had the
interests of the defendantsat heart"
was asked. Shoaf replied:
"Debs is not the scrt of man to
be dictated to by an attorney like
EE. F. Richardson or any other at
torney. Debs has mind fof bis
own and will probably do as he
himself thinks best"
This was in reference to the fsct
that leaked out some time ago that
Mr.. Richardson had made such
representation to Debs. The latter
had indicated to friends in the East
that he would not come, although
he had said frequently he would
come and, briog an army.

A STEER In HARNESS.
And a Main Guy in Plow Team
What High Priced Horses has
Brought Farming to.

Two horses and lusty steer har-
messed together and doing labor as
a plow team is an every day scene
on a farm in the north end of B n
ton these days. The steer works
in the middle, and according to all
accounts performs his part in the
ceremony with credit to himself and
satisfaction to his owner and equine
team mates. The caravan walks
right along as though it was not an
unusual but an ordinary arrange
ment and the land rolls over as sci
enti6cally and as swiftly ploughed
as if the steer was feeding on his
native heather and $500 horse in
his place at the plow. His horns
look little strange in a plow team,
and his mates must obviously cast
a sidelong glance out of the corner
of their eyes as they walk on aud
on meditatively and silently. Other
of the unusual is observable in that
the harness on the steer, for he
does 10: operate in the old ashioned
yoke, is upside down. The back
band is under his body and the bel
ly band over his back. The collar
is big end down. and the names are
wrong side up, for steer does his
pulling from above instead of a.
gainst his breast as a horse does.
Otherwise, the rigging is the same
FIR his steership as for the horses.
Meantime, the steer is worth $50
while the horse whose place be fills
probably went for $500 or $500.
The foxy owner is turning an hon.
est penny out of the transaction,
and somebody that badly needed a
work horse got him tor the price.
The only questionable thing about
the thing is what kind of matinee
would it be if the steer got a horn
mixed in one of his team mates
ears.

Boise, Idaho, May 3.-The jury
which will try William Hay wood,
first of the accused In the Saeunen-
berg case. will keep house during
the trial. The law of Idaho pro-
vides that euch juries shall be kept
together and in seclusion from pub
lie contact and the higher courts
have always insisted on q strict
compliance with the provision.
Therefore, rather than take any
chances with the publicity of a ho-
tel in this cese, Sheriff Shad Hodg-
in, responsible for the custody of
the Jurors, has hired a house for
them. The house, an attractive,
well-built structure, standing On q
neat lawn and garden, is just across
tie strest that TANKS the rear OF
Ada county court house and within
about 500 feet of the courtroom.
To make the daily journeys Of
the jury as direct as possible. the
sheriff has constructed a temporary
stairway from the rear ofthe second
story of the court house. Its upper
landing Is the platform of fire es.
cape and it is reached through the
ante.room of Judgs Words cham.
bera. The jury can, therefore, be
tax en- directly to the stairway with.
out leaving the rallied enclosure ot
the court room.
An official cook has been retained
and arrangement have been made
with local stores ioc good and va
ried supply of food. Four bailiffs-
two for day duty and two for nigh
ee1vice-will guard the jury. Ths
house will be carefully and con.
stantly watched. Entry to the op
en- lawn will be prohibited, one o
the day bailifs will remain at hom'
while the jury is in court, and th'
night bailiffs will do no sleeping
during their watch.
The courtroom is being partly
reconstructed. in order to incrsas'
the seating capacity both in ant
outside the rail. Two unusua
features of the courtroom are tina
the jury box occupies the space di
rectly in front of the bench that i
generally filled by the clerk and hi

chair is in the middle of the cham
Der, between the ends of counse
tables and directly in front of tn

faces the room, but its chairs ar
on swivels that may be swung a
round to face the judge. The wit

Many extra chairs and tables ar
