 IF ASSAULT I
CFrom Saturdays patlyl


 w. NJ. Boyd was found guilty by a jury at 10:+5 last night, following all all-day trial on a charge of as- sault with deadly weapon. The jury was out an hour.
 Denial of allegations of extreme cruelty inflicted on H. w. Bennett by w. NJ. Boyd and self-derense were items in the Boyd defense in his trial on d charge of assault with deadly weapon in superior court yesterday. Boyd declared that he did not inflict great wounds on the aged prospcctor at his camp on the Jersey Lily road and added that he threatened Ben- nett with the butt of shotgun to drive him away from the camp.
 The states case involved the al legation that Boyd had broken a shotgun over the person of Bennett, and witnesses testified as to the se- verity of Bennett's hurts. These in cluded Dr. McNally, who attended the case.
 Arguments were reserved for d night session and were notable chiefly by reason of the excellent ap- peal made by Louis H. Bunte, a young lawyer just admitted to the bar and making his first appearance before jury. The concluding argu- Incnt was made at 9;15 by County Attorney Sullivan.

From Sundays Daily)
 What Is booze in the law?
 Where is the line between non expert and expert testimony on the intoxicating quality of a beverage?
 Is white mule within the scope of things accepted in common knowl- edge?"
 Is the liquid in five 1-gallon bot ties introduced in the Mark Emmett case alcoholic liquor?
 Those are some of the questions put up to Judge Sweeney yesterday when state and defense clashed over the admissibility of the liquid in evidence against the man from whose premises in Miller valley of ficers testified that had secured a wonderful distilling outfit Judge Sweeney ruled.
 Dr. J. B. McNally was called by the state to. testify as to tests he had run on samples of the liquid. He told about the specific gravity and apparent alcoholic content of the bottles. '
 Sterling Hummer, a deputy sher- if, was oh the stand and the state asked him, to taste the liquid and tes- tify whether in his opinion it was booze.
 The witness. refused He wanted to know in advance what he was if anything.
 And there the case hung. The state held that it is permissible to put ill any and all kinds of testi- mony on the alcoholicability of given liquid The court recessed, read law books and decided with County Attorney Sullivan. But there were other conferences of counsel with the court in this case, which is Of an involved nature.
 The state successfully resisted at tempts by J. H. Morgan for the de- fense to show the reason Emmett came to Arizona. A night session was called and testimony was con tinued until after dinner.

T|SNEN PARTY
 STUMPS JURORS

Charlie Baker was alternately held
 up in front of a superior court jury yesterday as a cunning, interruptions booze salesman, too lazy to work and a detriment to an already over burdened Indian community; and as a man who has seen service in the American army on three continents, a sufferer. from tuberculosis, a de- cent government-sustained young man.
 And Charlie Baker sat at the table reserved for the defendants and al- ternateiy smiled and glowered.
 But whatever other effect the trial of the bootlegging case had it result ed in dividing the opinion of the jury for at late hour last night, the F men were still sitting around the table in the jurors room, rehearsing the evidence and trying to arrive at verdict.
 The trial began and continued with the courtroom literally sprinkled with aboriginal spectators. They came garbed chiefly in the Indians idea of civilized attire. There was little resemblance to the Smoki.
 The Baker case is an outgrowth of tiswen party that took place at the Kirkland Indian camp in April Frank Mosseye, storm center of that occasionally troubled community, was again an important but so far as the trial was concerned, an absent fac tor, But all the rest were there. Sam Tim and Helen Jackson and Sarah Hunt, not to mention numer- ous Apaches who remained nameless during the hearing.
 Sam Tim and Frank Mosseye travelled on a certain Sunday from Hillside to Kirkland, and arrived at Kirkland, they encountered other Indians who had been partaking of the fruits of the tulapai. According to some testimony, one man had con stunned a five-gallon can of tiswen. Another said that the can was only two-thirds full and that three had taken part in its demolition. It was attempted to be said that the five gallon man had then gone to the train and had seen Sam Tim and that he was able to see that Sam Tim was drunk. The county, thru its legal representative, MT. Westcr- vclt, ventufed the opinion that after a man had taken five gallons of tis- wen, he could not even see a train, much less a man dismounting there. from.
 At any rate, Frank Hosseye later was knocked down and hammered in a truly thorough manner. That is why, according to James Loy, coun- sel for Baker, Frank was so anxious to fasten the crime of bootlegging on Baker. He expatiated on the ven geful nature of Mosseye and cited killing that Mosseyc had been con cerned in.

SAM WOO AGAIN
 BEFORE COURTS

Sam Woo, aged retired Chinese camp cook, again confronted the federal authorities yesterday after noon. Hailed before United States Commissioner John A. Renoe Thurs day afternoon on a charge of violat- ing the Harrison narcotic act by the possession and transportation of opium, he was held on probable cause and released under bond of $500. Yesterday he was again ar rested by federal officers who found a section of copper coil in his room in house on South Goodwin street.
 Confronted with a charge of vio- lating sections } and 25 of the fed eral prohibition laws by the posses sion of liquor and of an apparatus designed for the manufacture of such liquor, the aged Chinaman who has lived i'll Prescott since retiring from his profession of construction and mining camp cook a year ago, pro tested his innocence.
 Still in Locked Room
 The arrangement of rooms at the South Goodwin street house where at least two Chinamen, one of whom is missing, were known to have been living, complicated the question of who was responsible for the presence in the house of complete still and coil, four gallons of fermenting mash and two gallons of finished product. There are four rooms ir the house, on the left ! room occupied by the Chinaman opening onto front porch and onto an adjoining room apparently used for storing lumber. Also adjoining this back lumber room and opening onto the front porch is Sam Wu's sleeping room. On the right side of the house, opening onto the front porch but unconnected with the other three rooms, is a room which was found locked. It was in this room that the still and liquor were found.
 A section of copper coil discover ed under heap of wood in the Iun Der room might have been left there either by Sam Woo, the missing Chinaman, or an occupant of the locked room. It was i'll this lumber room that three cans of smoking ojium, three cans of yen since and all opium pipe were found "Wednesday by the federal officers.

 Such was the evidence officered at arraignment of Sam Woo before Commissioner Rcnoc yesterday alter noon.
