LETTERS THREATEN

ing that the trial Ct William Hay.
wood, first OF the accused, will be
commenced on Thursday.
Letters that threaten every form
OF violence are pouring into Boise
from all over the country by hun
dreds, and most OF them are directed
TO Governor Gooding, who is bearing
the brunt of all that this celebrated
case invites.
Detectives, police and friends OF the
Governor and constantly upon the
alert to block the blow and, at the
insistencs OF family and friends, he
has finally and under protest, alter.
ed the routine movements OF his life
and work, at least to point Offer
ing the least exposure compatible
with the performance OF his duty.
Governor Gooding may be in no
danger from any source, but he and
his friends live every hour In the chill
atmosphere OF danger, and to them
the tragedy is ever real.
HARRY ORCHARD MARKED.
Another man similarly marked, in
the belief OF many men, is Harry
Orchard, alleged to be the assassin
hired by the three prisoners, whose
alleged confession is the basis OF the
States case.
Perfectly reasonable men here look
at the high witness chair In the coun-
ty court house, shake their heads
seriously, and tell you that Harry
Orchard will die in It, They tfllyou,
too, that II he were turned out tf
prison his body would be found with
in week.
Harry Orchard may live to die on
the gallows for his confessed part In
the murder OF Steunenberg, but such
ls not the belit OF all the men In this
community.
This same apprehension offers q
difficulty from the standpoint CT the
prosecution in securing jury.
This has been a man-killing coun-
try, and under the shadow OF o

In Paris the women who might be

they have had a vogue for making up
their faces to simulate a deadly pallor
of skin with wildly red lips and now
this fad has reached this country and
been taken up by some of the eastern
women. But PariSiennes have discover
ed a new color scheme and are seen, it
is said, in numbers on the boulevardes
with their faces panied a pale mauve,
their lips purple and their hats swathed
in dropping chiffon wells of lavendar or
