When the Census Bureaus mascot cat

that many Of the female employees Of

bitter enemies.
But Tip has put himself back on

for the time being, at least, is the hero
Of the hour.
Since The assassination of the spar

sent him on his way yelping over the

SLOW JURY GETTING.

Boise. Idaho. May 16.-During the
one session of the Haywood trial held
today eleven talesmen were examined
before a satisfactory juror was found
to replace the one excused yesterday
on peremptory challenge.
As court adjourned today the de-
fense exercised its first challenge by
relieving Allen Pride, a farmer. who
testified during the examination that
he had invited to dinner the deputy
who served the summons. He and the
deputy discussed the case for some
time, the talk hinging particularly
upon Orchard. who is to be the prin-
cipal witness for the state
\ talesman was called to replace
Pride, but his examination was defer
red until tomorrow. AS the work of
the jury selection progresses. difficult
ties in the way of completing the panel
seem TO be Increasing. Today one after
another was excused because of strong
opinion entertained as to the guilt or
innocence of the men accused of the
conspiracy. One man was dismissed

against the state because of various
acts attributed to the prosecution dur
ing the past year.

, ed violent attacks OF asthma and had
obtained relief from the use OF chlora
hydrate and chlorofcrm; the affiants
believed. that on March II when Leicht
set out on his fatal ride he took these
drugs with him as a precaution against
a recurrence of asthmatic attacks.
This theory could be supported by
such testimony only as might be fur
nished by those who knew Leicht in
Shebovgan. The affiants had been
connected with the defense only dur
ing the brief time since the indic,-
ment of the defendant and had been
unable within this time 20 secure this
material and essential evidence. The
defendant ali this time had been in
confinement and had been without
means 30 secure this evidence. The
court was therefore moved to grant .
continuance Of the case until the Oc-
toner term.
EYTINGE'S INSANE HISTORY. O..
Further in support of the motion for
a continuance the affiants had been
informed that Eytinge had been an
inmate of the Dayton, (O) State hos
pital for the insane and that he had
been released but not on the ground
that he was cured or had recovered.
They further believed that the follow
ling physicians of DAYTON would tes-
tify that they believed him to be still
insane: Or. H c. Hahne. DE- w. f.
Crume. DR.. Schuster. DIR. II. c. Hus-
ton and DR. J. c. Ratcliffe. The ar
fiants also had reason to believe tnat
the following physicians of Columbus.
o.. would testify to the insanity Of the
prisoner: DR.. j. NJ. Thomas and DR..
II. f. Arnold.
There was also information that
Mrs. Lewis Seebohm. the prisoner 5
grand mother on the side Of his moth
er had been an inmate of an insane
asylum and that his fathers sister,
Pearl Eytinge. of New York. had been
an insane person in the Bellevue IN.
" Hospital for the insane. Testimony
in support of this information could
be. secured only from Ohio and New
York and in the short time since the
affiants had been connected with the
defense they had been unable to Sc
cure It
The motion for continuance was
overruled as TO both reasons for il
but in relation 10 the question of in
sanity the court said that the defense
might at any time in the course of the
trial avail itself Of section 1f4S of the
penal code providing for the trial by
jury OF the sanity of the accused pend
ing which the trial or the pronoun ing
of judgment should he suspended
The next move of the defense was 20
object to the entire yenire on th,.
ground that Sheriff HAYDEN. who had
caused it To he summoned had sworn
to the complain against Eytinge. This
objection was overruled and the Sc
lection of the jury was begun.

The Twelve Men Charged With the Defen-
dant's Fate Have Been Selected
Motions for "a Continuance Which Were Denied
Probably Indicate That the Defense Will Rely in
Upon the Insanity Theory.

Louis V. Eytinge yesterday went on
trial for his life. The day was spent
in securing : jury and considering the
interest in the alleged crime, the per-
sonality OF the defendant and the pub
licity which has been given the af-
fair, this was accomplished in a. re-
rarkably short time.
The original venire fo- the April
term consisted of fifty members.
There was a special venire of thirty,
not however expressly for this case.
OF the eighty talesmen. only forty-se-
Ven were examined. Eighteen were ex-
cusd for cause and seventeen passed
out on peremptory challenges leaving
the following who have. the fate of Ey-
tinge within their Keeping: Stepher
Phillips, c: NJ. Baum. Charles w.

against talking about the case
among themselves or with others
and against reading newspaper ac-
counts of the trial. The opening state
ments of the attorneys VIII be made
this morning and the great murder
trial viii be on.
MOTIONS FOR CONTINUANCE.
In the beginning the defense filed
motions anJ affidavits for a continu-
ance. One. of them was by the de-
fendant and the other was b. Judge
Baker and Alfred Franklin his artor-
neys. The affidavit of the prisoner
recounted his meeting with Jonn
Leicht on his way 10 Phoenix II de-
scribed Leichts physical condition, his
suffering from violent attacks Of
asthma and the ministrations 70 him
by the defendant and other strangers
on the train, The. purpose of the affi-
6avit was to show that Leicht was 4
sufferer from asthma and that further
proof of his condition in confederation
of the statements of the defendar:
could be furnished only by persons ltv-
ing in Sheboygan. Wis. with whom
the prisoner had been unable to com
municate since his Indictment on
April &c. Such proof as might be fur
nished by residents of Sheboygan
would support the theory that the
death Of Leicht might have been caus-
ed by heart failure. by the self ad-
ministration of chloroform or choral
hydrate with suicidal intent or by his
unwittingly- having taken an overdose
OF either or those. drugs for relief from
a violent attack of asthma
The affidavit of the defendants at
torneys also set forth the importance
of securing testimony from res dents
of SSheboygan with reference to the
physical condition Of Leicht. 1t states

Have no good reason for being proud
but here is one who is proud with an
excuse for 1t.
He is proud of the reputation he has
made here by selling the best tires that
ever spanned the rim of buggy, carri-
age or bicycle wheel, and he is equally
proud of his record as a repairer who
makes repairs that add to the value Of
a wheel or a buggy. He is now doing
something else to attract attention. He
is selling high grade bicycles at prices
that have never been seen in Arizona
