Blood-Cleansing
Spring Tonic
tJoetor* Strongly Advise That a Tonic
be Takes This Month to Enrich
the Blood and Brln? Iftresh
Vigor and Life to the
Entire Body.
Now when the gentle Spring days are
bere and the seasonable Spring showers
are revivifying all nature, and all plant
life is starting to bud forth in glory,
• xnany a man and woman does not feel
vhe joyousness • which s^uia be theirs
Rt this season. Rather they feel languid,
tired, have very little or no appetite,
ambition is gone, lack energy, enjoy
neither work nor rest Life in their
case at least is largely a burden, a
thing to be endured, not to be enjoyed.
All this simply means that the system
needs toning up, and each aad every
function of the body needs' stimulating
and strengthening. This once accom
plished, life again becomes a joy and
pleasure.
If your system is in need of a blood
cleansing tonic that will start the
whole machinery of the human frame '
running smoothly and naturally.^t is
your evident duty to seek out and find
some tried, approved and safe remedy
that will do the work of cleansing the
blood and building up the tissue with
out at the same time leaving any in
jurious effects.
Thousands of physicians prescribe
and indorse Duffy's Pure Malt Whiskey
as an Ideal Spring medicine, one that
does its work effectively in purifying
the blood, in strengthening the heart
action. In aiding digestion and in add
ing fresh vigor aiJa life to the entire
body. Large numbers of 'those who
have used Daffy's are most loud in
its praise.
Duffy's Pure Malt Whiskey is distilled
wholly frdm malted grain by a
expensive method which has never been
made public and this private process
insures quality and flavor. Its age,
softness, palatability and freedom from
those injurious substances found in
other whiskies make it acceptable to
the most sensitive stomach- It Is the
only whiskey recognized as a medi
cine.
It acts as an antitoxin on the system,
and destroys and drives out all disease
germs. It Invigorates the creates
new tissue and keeps the 'entire system
elastic and youthful; thus, health )s
enjoyed and life is prolonged.
Duffy's is the only absolute prevent
tive and cure of pneumonia, consump
tion, grip, bronchitis, asthma, stomachs
and nervous diseases, malaria and low
fevers.

Oscar King Davis
BOISE, Idaho, May 15.-— The work of selecting the. Haywood
jury progressed ".today in^o the peremptory ,arid' ; the
prosecution, exercising the first one, excused William Van Orsdale,
the Boise grocer who had been passeH^fo^
for the second place, in the box. The morning; : session;;brought''a
hard blow to the defense through the .loss of a juror on '--their 'own
examination, who would have made conviction - impossible. 'This
was Samuel Wingate,- who had been provisionally accepted J by ithe
state for eleventh place. '"],^ : ,^ r '- : J :: ' : - : '~:v
It was under examination by Attorney Richardson that
gate disclosed the fatal defect in his, qualifications— affixed and
stubborn opinion that Harry Orchard, VoneVof ; the most pVominent
witnesses for the state, the miner who has confessedtthathe^killed
Steunenberg and on whose confession the arrest: of Moyer, Hay
wood and Pettibone was based, was riot to be -believed under "oath:
Wingate declared that he could not even obey;, the instruction of
the court if it should require him to give any" credence to Orchard.
His opinion of Orchard was such that if the miner was tb\be-avwit-
ness it would certainly prejudice him <
against the state's case and undoubted
ly affect his verdict.
PAILS TO CORRECT BLUXDER
Richardson stumbled upon this ; dis
closure by accident, when he; was "go
ing four bells after Wingate . pn an
other line. Wlngate'had not seemed a
desirable juror to the - defense ; and
Richardson was working ~i for /some
cause on which to challenge. When he
suddenly revealed the fact that Win
gate would have been the very best
sort of juror that -Haywood possibly
oould havej he backed I with all dex
terity, but it was too late. Wingate,
who was manifestly,, entirely sincere
in his feeling about Orchard, kept go
ing back to it until he had -made it
very plain how 'he . stood. ..
Then when Richardson passed him
for cause Senator Borah promptly went
after him again and soon had . him ex
cused. It was a lucky discovery for
the prosecution, for the presence of
Wingate on the jury would have ren
dered the whole trial useless from the
start by destroying the" possibility of :
securing a conviction. • •
P. Burnes . -was provisionally ac
cepted by both sides in Wingate's place!
and then Samuel Russell, the" twelfth
man, was also passed by the defense.
That left the box full on provisional
acceptance at the noon recess. The
afternoon session saw one man dis
placed for cause and first \u25a0 per
emptory cnallenge exercised.
The court announced that it would
adjourn to tomorrow morning, on ac
count of the death of former Judge
Nugent, father of one of . the attorneys
for the defense, . and committees : were
appointed to represent, the bar at the
funeral and to prepare resolutions. \u25a0/••
PRAISES STEUXEXBERG '
' Attorney Richardson, '.'."'ln / beginning
his examination of Wingate," amplified
the line of questioning that >has been
followed \u25a0 by the defense heretofore by
referring to the Coeur d'Alene. troubles
in 1599 and asking whether the . tales
man had given any attention to that
matter and whether ne had formed an
opinion as to which side, was in the
right then, the state of the western
federation of miners. Wingate said |
that he had reached no settled con- j
elusion about it. but had approved the
action of Governor Steunenberg,' who
was "trying to protect the people."
. This answer seemed to decide Rich
ardson that Wingate -was not. the sort
of juror that the defense wanted, for
he continued the examination on that
line .for some time, going, into every
possible detail of *it and repeating his
questions in slightly modified form un
til he had, covered the whole range.
Then -he asked whether Wingate\ had
formed any 'opinion as between the
miners' federation ' and the. mlne : own
ers' association. Wingate said: no, and
Richardson asked about the credence
that he would give to the testimony, of
McParland and other detectives. That
was the first mention that had been
made of such testimony.
Wingate. replied that he "didn't take
stock in such reports," and that answer
led Richardson straight .into; the line
of - examination which resulted in the
loss of Wingate to -the defense. The
attorney took jj the alleged confession
of Harry Orchard and. asked If Win
gate had read about it. The talesman
said that he/ had, and \u25a0 Richardson
wanted to know if it had led. him to
form \any opinion as to the guilt- of
innocence" of : the three defendants, or
as to Orchard. ..
JVO FAITH TS ORCHARD
"No," . said Wingate, "not as to the
defendants or as to Orchard's guilt, but
as to- him.**" -r-i-- '.'•.,' \u25a0 . -.
There was nothing, to show what
sort of opinion this was, and Richard
son went on to develop ; It. /He
to know about it, . and very v soon
brought out - the statement \ from Win
gate that he "was prejudiced \u25a0: against
the . witness." Immediately Richard
son put, on the 'back pedal,: but.it was
too late. He had been going-, top speed
after what seemed to: be.; an- undesir
able juror, and the revelation that he
was desirable .had "come so- suddenly
and unexpectedly that It was impossible
to reverse on the instant >v : ;
The attorney paused a moment before
asking another « question ! and | Wingate
said, ~l would like to. tell just what-I
mean If this court would- let ( me." :
"Butyou can't,"-, pet in Richardson'
"I never Just knew the': reason for.. that
rule myself. but : it- is the- rule."
• Then i the '- line of the": 'examination
was; shifted a' little./ WJngate/^was
asked if ' be' would be willing to *accept'
Haywood for a' juror if. their situations
were reversed. But Wingate,? having
started " out to express \u25a0\u25a0 himself 5 about
Orchard, was not to be -deflected. :;
"I would.-" he said, ."with . the mlria
I've got about Orchard.*.' ~ ./'./; , '
- "Could you take .the, testimony .from

not I the slightest 1 : shadow of ~j doubt ; of
the thorough honesty.; of i Wingate or
as. to . his determination, of /character, j

M The-offer of settlement of ' the Austrian- Phoenix Insurance Company
|f has, been 'accepted by policy holders whose claims amount to over a million .
B ? dollars. By ; the .terms of the settlement the Company agreed to dls-
\u25a0 tribute a fund-of $650,000, provided 85 per cent. of the claimants accepted
li the v offer— the Company reserving from the fund an amount equal to 60
Hp per,: cent: of the face of. claims remaining unsettled; If the agreement Tras
S not signed by So per cent of claimants. the fund was to be $600,000. There
His some uncertainty as to whether, or not 85 per cent have signed. "Jhe
I total dividend from $600,000 would, as nearly as can now be stated, amount
H -to about 43 cents, of which 30 cents has been paid, 10 cents would be pay-
U able In 60-day drafts on May 10th, and 3 cents before July 31st. From

1 paid balances payable in twoequal installments on May 10th and on July
I -10th. —All signers of > the agreement have received 30 per cent of their
fl: claims. To avoid the necessity of two more payments, and to eliminate
