HARVARD IN REVOLT.
Because President Eliot IL Hostile to
intercollegiate Athletics.

CAMBRIDGE. Mass, Feb. 16.-President
Eliot has touched of a vsritable bombshell
in his annual report. where be deals with
the subject Of athletics. He proposes three
radical changes, . follows: No freshmen
shall be allowed to participate in any
intercollegiate event; no one shall be al
lowed 10 compete more than one year in
any line of intercollegiate athletics; inter-
collegiate contests shall take place but
once in two years. For great while the
president has been declaring his opposi-
ton to intercollegiate athletics At q
Phi Beta Kappa dinner last spring he
declared himself opposed TO theta. This
is declared 20 be the most unpopular move
the president has ever made. and there is
= strong movement TO call a mass meeting
which will protest against the presidents
proposed changes. The indignation Of the
students appears TO be general.

Mr.. GerlaCh says New Mexico and
Arizona are booming, mechanics
and laboring men earn from $3.50

THE MASS MEETING.
The Strikers Have the Sympathy of
the Public

Inc otrlRerS ddVe Jne sympathy OF
the Public.
Convention hall was crowded to
the walls last night as a result of a
call for a mass meeting to consider
the present strike of employees on
the San Antonio Street Railway
company. The meeting was pre-
sided over by Joseph Cameron, and
Theodore KunZman was chosen
secretary.
Immediately after the meeting
was called to order and an an.
nouncement made for anyone hav-
ing anything to say regarding the
strike to step forward, there were
calls for Gray. Mr.. A. A. Gray
responded and made an enthusiast
tic speech, advising the strikers
not to commit any violent deeds
and telling them that they have
the sympathy of the public.
Mr.. Gray was succeeded by Pop.
ulist, 7. J. McMinn, who also ad-
vised them to keep within the
law. The next speaker was Alder
man Jack Daugherty, who told
them the people were with the
strikers. Attorney w. E. Cox fol-
lowed Mr.. Daugherty and then
spoke Mr.. Dugan, carpenter.
G E. McGinners spoke next and
then the following resolution was
adopted:
Whereas, The conductors and
motormen recently employed by
the San Antonio Street Railway
Company have seen fit to exer-
else their rights as American citi-
zens to protest against the wrongs
and hardships enforced upon them
by the management of said cor
poration, and
Whereas, The compensation be-
ing paid the said employees is not
commensurate with the services
they render and their demand for
uniform scale of wages of $3.50
per day is universally accepted as
just and eq uitable, and
Whereas, the present Ubiquitous
practice of the said corporation of
employing incompetent men and
irresponsible boys to operate cleo
trio cars is calculated to result in
serious damage to life and property
and menace to the public; there
fore be it
Resolved, that we, the citizens
of San Antonio, in mass meeting
assembled, do hereby denounce the
oppressive action of the manage
ment of the San Antonio Street
Railway company in refusing to
pay it's employees living wages.
Resolved, That we extend to the
men now engaged in the struggle
against said corporation for fair
and remunerative wages our heart
felt sympathy and promise to rem
der them such assistance as lies in
our power to further their cause.

AT THE GRAND.
EFFIE ELLSLER.

The production of Doris" Robert
Drouet's play, bv Effie Ellsler, this
season, will be very finished one.
Great care has been shown in the
selection of competent players. The
idea that forms the basis OF the plot
in itself is subject that has re-
ceived widespread discussion and
has claimed the attention of
thoughtful men and women in all
ages-the moral right of a divorced
woman to marry while the first
husband lives. The incidents of the
play occur in an English village, in
and about the picturesque home of
the old rector, who, with his good
wife are two of the most admirable
characters of this charming play.
The ether personages OF the play
are well drawn and modelled much
after the type Dickens has made us
familiar with. The auther has not
overlooked the fact that good
comedy is an important factor in
successful play and has provided an
abundant supply of clean, whole
some fun that all can appreciate
and enjoy. The heroine, Doris is
just in line with the class of char
acters Etfie Ellsler has always been
associated with, yet essentially diff
ferent from any in which she has
ever appeared. The engagement OF
Miss Ellsler and her excellent com
pany at the Grand opera house Mon
day and Tuesday, March 18th and
18th will be thoroughly appreciated
by our play goers. "Dorris" will be
given on the opening night and
"A woman's power" the following
night. Seats now on sale at popular
urices

SURPRISES Never Cease,

The old belief that the leigh class OF
tailors are always the last to come down
IN prices and in spite Of hard times
adhere to the prices established ten
years ago IS smashed into a cooked
hat. Our reporter called Tucho ok s
store yesterday and to say that he was
surprised would he putting it mildly
Woolens just received from this and
the other side of the ocean which you
could not touch for less than S3j 90 OF
1000 q year ago they sell now at from
S25 90 to 30 90 Trousers which you
cant get for less tnan $40 in any other
first class house, they sell at 81 Upon
reporters inquiry they gave the follow
ing reasons for the reduction
In the first place we have bought
the goods at a reduction because we
bought in large quantities and for cash.
Second, in our long experience in the
business we have found that it is oasier
TO sell three suits at s25 than one at
$40; and last but not least we believe
that we viii capture big per centage
of the money which is now being sent
east for clothes. as this will practically
dolaway with the excuse that the
tnilors in Pueblo are too high" VIZ

THE CITY COUNCIL.
1t Takes Action on Several Important
Measures.

AT the regular meeting of the council
"Wednesday night Mayor Dempsey ex-
planned that inasmuch MS the annexa-
tion question was pending in the courts
that 1t was necessary to have an ordin-
ance pass first reading repeating all
notice of election in case the injunc-
ton against holding an election in
Pueblo would stick. Alderman Fisher
made motion 10 that effect and the
ordinance was read.
The election of the following officers
of the fire department was confirmed
Chief, Harry Moran; assistant chief.
Albert Pugh; secretary. W. j. Darnell;
treasurer. w l. Rees.
An ordinance submitting the question
OF voting 100000 in sewer bonds at
the April election was read the frs,
time
Alderman Fisher said it had come to
his knowledge that the city weigher
hhu reluseu 10 pay the sth'e scdie III
specter for officially examining his
scales and therefore the city scales
have not been iospected On his motion
Attorney Lennard will look into the
business.
Alderman Kirk moved TO have the
street commissioners clean up the
alleys, which motion prevailed
