PROBABLY FATAL.
Bloody Pistol Fight Between |
Two Gamblers

A Bloody Pistol Fight Between
Two Gamblers
At $50 o'clock this morning two
gamblers, named Jim Ellis and VIM
Merle, alias ''Pilot Point KID had a
fight in the Silver King saloon with
pistols and Merle was wounded in
the head, both eyes being gouged out
in the course of the bullet. Merle
was taken to the Santa Rosa hospital
after his wounds had been dressed at
Kalteyer's drug store by DR.. Oldham.
Ellis was Immediately arrested by
Officers Seffel and Schumacher and
placed in the county Jail, and a
charge of assault with intent to COM
NIT murder was made against him
before Justice McA llister. AS late as
l o'clock p. m. Merle was yet alive,
but the doctor attending him says the
wound is necessarily fatal.
From witnesses to the shooting it is
learned that Merlie and Ellis have
had a grudge against each other for
some time past. At the Turf saloon
previously they nearly came together
This morning Ellis walked into the
Silver King and went into the private
office. He found Merle inside and
what occurred there is not known.
Merle was heard to say, "I'll just set
you afire," and Ellis came out follow
ed by Merle who fired two shots at
Ellis as Ellis walked into the little
private Office near the safe. Ellis
then drew his nickle plated A calibre
pistol and replied with three shots,
one of which struck Merle in the
head, as described. Merle ran out
on the sidewalk and fell in the street,
where he was picked up and taken to
the drug store.
Ellis is from Illinois, and has been
dealing at the Ranch, while Merle is
from Pilot Point, Texas, where he
married a respectable young lady,
who is now with him. He has been a
prOmiscuous gaDester, not being en-
ployed as dealer, but going it, gener-
ally, alone. Both men are of small
stature.
