 the defendant had been detained there
 but would bring the buggy over in | the evening. The witness at once
 sent one of his employees. Frank l Brown, after the rig and he brought | it back. The witness was asked if
 he could identify the women he had seen in the buggy; he did not think he could. Mrs. Button was asked to stand up. She did so, as she did a
 dozen. times after that, but the wit
 ness could not recognize her. Frank Brown testified as to what Hooker had related and to going to Tempe after the buggy and team. He could not identify Mrs. Button as one of the women whom he had seen in the buggy.
 Another witness was Mir. Buck, the proprietor of a livery stable at Tempe, where the team had been left. MT.
 Buck did not see it until about II
 o'clock. though he had been informed that the defendant brought it there
 about five o'clock in the morning. The latter part of this testimony was stricken out, and the prosecution or
 dered a subpoena for a witness who Couiu ltSlIN as lo lile eAaNt tune
 when the team. was brought to the stable.
 Marshal Brown, ldentifier.
 The next man was Ramon Valen- zuela. who is employed at George
 Boston's rooming house at Tempe.
 He said that on September 9 he had rented room No. to the defendant
 but he was unable to say who oc-
 cupied it. Sam Brown, the city mar
 shal of Tempe, had the way paved
 for his testimony. He said that on September he had occasion to visit
 in an official capacity room No. ?
 of the Boston rooming house and he found two women there. The wit
 ness was not asked as to the nature of the official duty that impelled this visit He was asked if he would rec ognize the women whom he had seen there. He said he would and Mrs. Button, who was sitting midway in the court room, was requested to stand up again. At that distance the witness could not recognize her. But on approaching her. he said, That is one of the women"
 A Classic Wink.
 Judge Baker. evidently with the idea of showing that the identified tion powers of the witness were not infallible, asked him if he would know the other woman. MT. Brown was positive that he would. Turning to the audience, Judge Baker said: Miss Florence, stand up" A young lady rose and Mir. Brown taking a good look at her. said. That's the ;- Miss Florence Brewster indulged in grimace at MT Brown. involving the elimination of her eye from the left side of the face. so thorough was the wink. The side of the face for an instant was left utterly shapeless. If she had made that kind of a face before the witness looked at her he would not have recognized her. nor would any one who had known her from the cradle.
 The last witness for the territory was C. Sanchez. an employe of the Club stables. who said that on Fri day before the shooting. the defend ant had hired a horse and buggy there. This was corroborative of the statement of the prosecution that on that day the defendant and Mrs. But ton had taken a buggy ride together. Then the territory rested and at the request of Judge Baker a recess of twenty minutes was taken that he might confer with his witnesses.
 Statement Of the Defense.
 Judge Baker addressed the jury in l a. lengthy statement. He said that l no effort would be made to contrOvert ! ha aT-fIannn of "a in gard to the frequent visitations of | the defendant at the Button house | It would not be denied that on Sep | tember the defendant. Mrs. Button, | Miss Brewster and a young man had | gone to Tempe together nor that on . the Friday before the shooting that l the defendant and Mrs. Button had f taken a buggy ride together. That | would all be admitted and there would be testimony to prove that there was not the slightest impro- priety in the relations of the defend ant and Mrs. Button. It would be shown that on the Friday buggy ride. Mrs. Button had invited the defend ant to her house on Sunday for din ner and that the invitation had been that she might have an op- to talk-.over an important matter with him. She was going to ask him to advance her money nec- essary to begin divorce proceedings against her husband from whom she lad been separated for eight months md who in that time had not con ributed to her support. It would be shown that that matter was dis ,ussed on Sunday and that the de- endant had replied that he would ake the request under advisement.
 It would also be shown that though he defendant had known Button for ong time and had been on friendly erms with him, his acquaintance with Mrs. Button had begun the day before he 9th of September. the date of the first buggy ride. The defendant had leen introduced to Mrs. Button by Miss Brewster, an estimable young ady who had known him for a long ime.
