JURY NOW
 HAS CASE
 OF KRAUSE

Late this afternoon the Krauae ldd- naping case was given to the jury. This case has engaged the entire at. tenuon of the court for the past thirteen days. The work of securing the jury was started Saturday morn Ing, April 10th and was completed at i1:20 the following Tuesday. Since that time the Government has been introducing evidence, it even being necessary to hold two night sessions in order to finish at this time.
 Yesterday afternoon when the eyl- dence for the Government had all been put before the Jury. the de- fense introduced the deposition of J. II. Edwards. an expert on signatures from the Dexter Horton Bank, of Se- atte That closed the defense and the arguments started.
 Assistant District Attorney J. Fl, ! Reagan opened for the Government and talked for an hour an ten min utes. He summed up the evidence clearly and forceably, telling how Christie had been enyeigled away from his work by Krause, how the search for him had been conducted and of how Krause had then disap- peared. He told of the arrest of Krause ln Seattle and of his denying his Identity at that time to the Se- attle officers.
 Several times Mir. Reagan made re- marks which were objected to by the defense and they interposed stren- uous objections. After Mir. Reagan had explained his remarks they were allowed to stand
 Mr. Krauczunas, for the defense, opened for that side of the case and talked for an hour and three quar- ters last evening and then court ad. ] journed until this morning. The jury was remanded to the charge of the bailiff and was lodged at the Alaskan Hotel for the night
 This morning Mir. J. Graton O. Bryan. for the defense presented the closing arguments for. Krause He talked for an hour and a half He iaid great stress on the fact that, &C., cording to him. the Government had made no proof of intent to commit the crime, except the act itself He attacked the evidence of the different Government witnesses. especially Mir. Taschek. the hand writing expert; MT. Hewitt. the typewriter expert; Mr. Crowther. the civil engineer who had seen Krause through his instru- ment: and Mr. Pelo. who had also seen Krause at Douglas the morning after the disappearance of Christie.
 District Attorney Smiser fiinisred the arguments and in clear and free manner laid the connecting links Of the evidence before the Jury. He is a finished speaker. Mir. Smiser call. ed attention to the fact that while Mir. OBryan bitterly attacked the ex- pert testimony introduced on behalf of the Government, the only evidence the defense produced at all times was lthe deposition of an expert.

American Soldiers Suffer in Mexican War; Bitter Gold on Night Rides; Men Press Cars
 Against Horses Bodies to Stop Aching

to his demand and Captain Wells was fired on.
 The Americans swung Into action as fast as their tired horses would take them while the Villa band seat tered, all in flight some in twos and threes. sniping as they retreated from rock to rock The Villa forces this messenger said, formed three times as if to make stand against the Americans. but gave up each time without Q fight, and continued their retreat. The Americans follow ed, riding a short distance, and then dismounting to fire. 1t was difficult for Americans to overtake Villas men because of the long march the cav alrymen had made to reach Guerrero. For this reason the machine gun platoon was unable to get into ac- ton at very close range. From a hin these guns swept an area about 2,OOO yards wide and 2,O0O yards deep. Observers with the guns saw horses in the distance lying prone where the guns had sprayed their fire.
 The machine gun men also followed the retreating bandits, but on account of their long search march had diff ficulty in keeping up with the fresh horses of the Villa followers.
 A cavalry officer, who has been out riding the trails of the bandits returned today. had not tasted ba- con in 15 days. His troops did not meet any of the bandits, but partici- pated in many long chases which helped to run the Mexicans into con tact with other American forces.
 My most prized article of. bag gage" the officer said, '1 think was an old sock. When l had coffee, kept this in the sock. When I had tobacco and no coffee, l turned the sock tho other side out and filled 1t with tobacco. One side for each but not enough of either to keep even one side working all the time.
 yesterday obtained some match es, took them while the other fel- lows wasn't looking, because I knew he could not need them half as much as we did out on the trail"
 His men and himself the officer said, had worn out much of their clothing, according to ordinary stand ards Of wear in their hard rides, They like thousands of other cavalry men, were patching their shoes with the extra leather from their stirrups, which made excellent sole leather.
 ''This is the only suit Of clothes have along" the officer said, "and I wore out the seat Of my trousers a week ago. So made new seat out Of my shelter half"
 Two men use one tent and each carries half. called shelter half
 These tents are about a yard high at one end. sloping to the ground at the other end Most of the fast rid ing cavalry advance columns are without such tents at present, having used them for other purposes, or discarded them to tighten burdens when they got the trail of some squad of Villas bandits
 "A good many shelter tents in our force" the officer continued, "have been used to renew trouser seats"

Mrs. Wilson the 35th
First Lady Of the Land

Mrs Edith Boiling Wilson is the
thirtyfifth first lady OF the land, al
Though Mr. Wilson is the twenty
eighth president OF the United States.
Exclusive Of Martha Washing on,
who held court at 8 Franklin square
New York, and later at lahilade PHI
the White House has had 50 mistress
es. Mrs. Wilson will be its thirty
third strictly speaking.
Some Of our presidents, as Jefferson.
Jackson. Van Buren, and Arthur, have
been w,,dowers, who never called up
on nieces or daughters to assist in
bearing their honors. BY an unwrit-
ten law there has always been wo-i
man to share the White House throne
? Twice the White House has seen
three mistresses in a single term.
One Of our pres dents was a bach
elor and another married after his I'M
auguration. In the latter case the
sister reigned till the wife appeared.
Abb gail Adams, wife of John Ad-
ans, second president Of the United
States, was the first mistress of the
White House. This vas ii the year
1890.
With jefferson new reign began,
but as he was a widower, Dolly Madis
son, wife Of the secretary of state,
was called upon to act rs hostess.
I She kept the position during Jeffers
sons term and also during that Of
her husband.
President Arthur q widower. was
assisted by Mrs. McElroy.
Rose, the sister of President Cleve-
land. gave way before his W fe, and
Carol ne Harrison's death made Mrs.
Mckee, her daughter, first lady Of the
land.
The death Of Mrs. Woodrow Wilson
made the eldest daughter, Miss Mar
garet Wilson, nonainally the first lady
OF the land
And thus Mrs. Wilson becomes, by
actual count, the thirty-fifth lady as
