under which the witness wss brought to
. Boise to testify. Oulbblnnl said the de-
tectlves came to him and told him he had
' to come to Boise, and there wss no use
"trying to dodge It"
, "8o they were going to kidnap youT"
commented Darrow.
. "No, sir," said the witness; "they Just
told me I had to come."
Oulbblnnl got $200 to cover the expenses
of the trip. He told the detectives that he
knew of the case and was told to tell the
truth.
Oulbblnnl said Orchard told him he
lived by gambling at night. He slept dur
ing the day time.. The witness did not
know whether he discussed the Brsdley
explosion with Orchard or not. He talked
about It with everyone who came It.
Trace of a Letter.
The prosecution called as the next wit
ness Hull C. McClaughey. the assistant
postmaster at San Francisco, whe was
Interrogated as to a registered letter
Orehsrd Said he received from Pettlbene
while In San Francisco. Orchard said he
was going by the name of John Dempsey
at the time and PeWbone used the name
of J. Wolff In transmitting the letter
which contained POO.
Postmaster McClaughey produced the
registry records of the Sen Francisco
office which showed the receipt of the
letter In question on August IS. 19H. The
envelope wss postmsrked Denver, August
10. 1904.
The records showing the delivery of the
letter from J. Wolff to John Pempsey
were admitted in- evidence by Judge Wood
ever the protest of the sttorneys for the
defense -who objected en the ground there
'wns nothing to- connect the defendant
Haywoo with the matter. The receipt
signature "John Pempsey" was written
so badly that Haywood's attorneys In
sisted It be not read, hut submitted to the
Jury for their ' Inspection and Individual
conclusion.
The only questions put to McClaughey
on cross-examination had to do with whe
Ehe said she was subpoenaed by the Pinker
tons. "And did they tell you that Mr. Pettibone
was In business on Stout streetT' asked
Darrow.
"No, sir," replied the witness, who was
then excused.
This ended the tracing of the letter and
the proseoutton turned to the task of cor
roborating Orchard's testimony as to his
Experiences In the Vindicator mine at
Cripple Creek. Clarence L Harrah was
called to the stand. The witness worked
on a cage In the Vindicator mine In 1903,
at the time Orohard said he and s com
panion went Into the mine to set off a car
load of powder they had discovered. They
were discovered by a cageman, but drove
him back by shooting at him. Harrah told
on ths stand today of having discovered a
man in one of the tunnels. The man shot
st him and hs went back to his cage,
Harrah said hs saw only one man. The
Incident occurred 800 feet down. In the
eighth level.
Mate arch of Hlse.
On cross-examination Harrah said he re
ported the matter to the mine superin
tendent A search was made of the levr',
but bo one wss found. The militia later
in the night made a it'irci of 'he ei tire
mine, but found no one.
"Whe first talked to you about this mat
ter la connection with this csset" asked
Darrow.
"A Brian who said he wss a United State
deputy. came to the mill In Colorado where
I was working en Msy 11"
Harrah aaid he had nothing but the
-JIL.JJ Ullllll J M -J.USU -...!..'
man's word as to his authority. The dep
uty said It was his business to subpoena
people. Harrah could not remember tho
name the man gave. The deputy told him
to go to Denver to the Plnkerton detec
tive office. He talked with Mr. Prettyman
there and made arrangements to come to
Boise. Counsel for the state and defense
got into a wrangle over Harrah. Mr. Dar
row claimed the witness was trying to
shield the Plnkertons' connection with his
testimony.
Senator Borah said there was nothing of
the sort the witness could not understand
the questions: Harrah denied any Inten
tion to dodge anything.
During Harrah's testimony some woman
among the spectators gave an audible hiss.
Judge Wood said If there was any demon
stration of any kind In the future he
would clear the room.
Luncheon recess was taken until 1:80 p.
m., with Harrah stni on the stand.
MASCOT SUNG AT THE BOYD
Begjarer Prince Opera Company Be
gins the End of Its En-sagrinent.
rL
Last night at. the Boyd theater the Beg
gar Prince Opera company put on "The
Mascot," which will conclude the engage
ment of the company at the theater. The
opera ia one of the well known old timers,
Snd has some very pretty music, the
"Gobble" duet being one of its most beau
tiful numbers. Miss Blach is back In the
cast, singing Bettlna, the turkey tender,
with much feeling, although her voice still
shows the effect of her illness. Mr. Hunt
ington IS singing the part of Blppo, the
shepherd, and does It very well. The other
roles are well placed, and generally the
opera is well presented. It will run the
' rest of the week, with a matinee on Sat
urday.
Premier Stolypin Fear Plot to Form
Republic. .
DEMANDS ARREST OF LEADERS
Members Greatly Aroused at Aetlen
of Government, Which Is Aimed
t Social Democrat
Members.
I
ST. PETER9BURO, June 14 -Premler :
Stolypin today demanded that the lower
house of Parliament exclude from the
house all the members of the social demo
cratic faction, numbering fifty-five, and
sanction the arrest of sixteen ot their lead
ers, including MM. Alexlnsky, TSeretell,
Dehaparldse and Ozel, on the charge of
entering into a conspiracy to overthrow the
government and establish a democratic re
public. In continuing the premier an
nounced that unless the house Immediately
yielded the Parliament would be dissolved.
The press and public galleries were
cleared, the police and troops took pas
session of the entrance to the Parliament
building and the House went Into secret
session and debated the question. It Is
considered almost certain that Premier
Btolypln's demands will be rejerted.
The duma eventually declared a recess
until this evening without taking a vote
on the government's demand. There are
still forty speakers awaiting a hearing.
The streets outside -the Tauride palace are
filled with secret police, who, It Is pre
sumed, had orders to arrest the social
democratic members of the house when
they emergo from the building. The court
yards of the buildings In the vicinity of the
palace are filling up with Infantry, Cos
sacks and mounted police.
When the session of the lower house was
resumed the constitutional democrats, Poles
and group of toil decided to refer the
government's demand for the exclusion of
the social democrats to a committee, which
was a virtual rejection of the premier's ultimatum.

from enforcing the J-cent rate and max
imum freight rate laws he declared they
had violated an agreement with him not
to file application for an Injunction until
today, lie stated that he had no official
knowlodge of what action the railroad
companies had taken before Judge Mc
Pherson. "If the railroads did obtain an Injunc
tion from Judge McPherson yesterday,
then I intend to go into court and charge
them with fraud in their representations
to the attorney general's office,' he said.
"i understand the railroad injunction is
directed against myself and the Board of
Railroad Commissioners. We can in no
sense be made defendants. These arc
criminal statutes and must be enforced by
the prosecuting attorneys.
"In every county of this state the rail
roads can be Indicted If they fall to com
ply with the provisions of the 2-cent law.
They will also be in contempt of the stats
courts.

HE CAME FROM WY0MIN(
Affabl Son of Gillette Hits Chlcagi
and la Taken to See
the Slants.
It might have been the laat scene In s
drama the scene in which the stage man.
ager whistles to the thunder maker to stop,
and orders the property man to bring out
the sun snd filter Its rays through the lacey
trees. The seen was in Judge Fake'l
court, at the Harrlman street police station,
Chicago, and Judge Fake was thunder
maker and sun msker. Clifford O. Roe,
assistant state's attorney, was the dram
atist, who gave tbe thunder a place to
crash and the aim a place to shine.
John Paul of Wyoming wearing a carna
tion snd a sheepish look stood Defore tha
railing, looking curiously Into the face of
the court. He looked like the man who
bought the Masonic temple for 1600, and
then went over to see the "explosion on
the lake front."
He told Judge Fake that he came to Chi
cago last Friday from Gillette, Wyo., and
was standing In front of the Midland hotel
in Madison street when a man grasped his
hand, assured him they were old friends,
and Invited him to play pool In a place
bearing the name "Orpheum" In incandes
cent letters.
"I told him I didn't know much about
playing pool," stammered John Paul, "but
he -said that was all right; he would show
me' how."
"Did he?" ssked the court.
"Well, I should say he. did," muttered
John Paul. "After we had played one
game he suggested we play B0 cents on the
ten ball. That meant that whoever got the
ten ball in s pocket got 60 cents from the
other fellow. Of course, he always got the
ten ball in before I did, but that was be
cause I wasn't as good a shot as he was."
"We had played a couple of games when
a third man .came up. He wanted to Join
us. My friend said to me: 'He's an easy
mark; we'll get his money. We'll play for
125 s game and I'll divide with you If I
win.' " '
Paul and his partner won the first game.
Paul waa $12.50 ahead and it looked like
finding money to him. But then came the
rub. The supposed "essy mark," who the
police say was Jim Falrchild, who has a
police record, took the next four game and
John Paul was 78 rfhy.
"My pawner didn't half try to play after
that first game," Paul explained. "It wa
all fixed up between htm and the othei
fellow, I guess."
"Well," said Judge Fake, "you're nearly
as bad aa the other fellow. It's case where
the biter got bit. Tou thought you were
getting in on the ground floor, and so you
conspired with this man to get that other
fellow's money. Now, suppose he had
been Innocent it was unmanly on your
part; you were a conspirator. You thought
you had a snap, didn't you? If every fel
low out In Wyoming Is like you, I hope I'll
never have to go out that way.
"You'd better go back to Wyoming on
the first train," he remarked to John Paul.

you were, eh?" Chicago Tribune.

Gypsy Smith, the
Evangelist.
Gipsy Smith, the English evangelist who
sailed for home recently, preparatory to a
campaign in Australia, told the story the
night before he left at a dinner given tn
: his honor at tha Hotel Astor, New York,
I of the greatest conquest, la his opinion,
h had made tn this country on his tour
I of seven months.
I He said he bad preached 450 times, had
I answered Innumerable calls of various
kinds and had soen thousands stand up to
! profess a Christian life. The convert of
; whom he was most proud was a fashion
able woman In a western city, who had
come to his meetings with a secret that was
eating out her heart. He said:
"This woman waa not yet of middle age
and her life apparently had been given up
to frivolity. She led a society life. She
was extravagant In her dress and thor
oughly worldly. It must have been the
dreadful secret that she carried that at
tracted her to my meetings.
"Her friends were surprised to see her
go In. At the Qrst meeting she attended
she was visibly shaken. She came again
and the storm broke.
"She sought me out and unburdened her
soul. There was a motherless little girl
tn another city for whom she longed. Her
conscience was stirred.
"For all her married life she had been
concealing a great aorrow and sin snd she
bad gone into worldly affairs to sttempt to
forget it sil. She ssked me what ahe
should do.
" 'How can I ever tell my husband T she
asked. 'It may destroy our home. It may
kill me.'
'Where is your husband? I asked.
"She told me he was In Philadelphia snd
I said I would talk to tha pastor of the
church that they attended occasionally.
"That man had a long head. He told
the woman to telegraph for her husband
to com home at once. She did so and h
responded. She met htm with teara In her
yes, but a smiling face, for she had been
wrestling In prayer, and ssked him to com
to my meetings.
"He waa surprised at first that h should
j be called horn for auch a purpose and waa
not Inclined to ilk It. He saw that his
I wife waa worked up over th matter and
' h yielded to her entreaties to listen to m
becaus h feared the effect If li dlsap
! pointed her. H attended half a dosen
meetings snd th fervor reached him and
I ha became a ral convert.
I "In his enthusiasm he asked if there waa
anything he could do to prove his faith.
" 'Can you stand a great sorrow? asked
that pastor.
" 'Yea.' he said, 'gladly.'
( "Then with great tact the preacher told
about that motherless Utile on, while the
, wife sat by sobbing as If her heart would
break.
" 'Wife.' h aald, 'let us lake tne first
' train tomorrow and get that child. I hav
! sinned tn the sum way myself. I thank
