a most miraculous escape was had
by the little daughter of Mr.. Solomon
Schultz, last afternoon. Two bicycle
enthusiasts, riding a tandem at a rath-
err fast rate of speed, ran into her
while she was riding on Myrtle
street.
The little girl was riding her wheel
ing towards town. About the time she
was half way of the block two young
men came down Stanton street on q
dark red tandem and turned to go out
Myrtle street. The little girl first
turned to the left thinking that she
would be able to get out of the way of
the .men, then she saw that she was
unable 20 get to that side and turned
to the right. The men also turned
twice and in zig-zgagiDg the crash came
The two men got off their wheel at
once to see if the little girl was hurt,
and as soon as they SAW she was not,
they mounted and left the scene.
The small light wheel was smashed
almost beyond repair. The front rim
was smashed, the spokes knocked out,
and the fork broken. The tandem was
only hurt as far as having few spokes
broken. 1t was hired to them
from the Ell Psso Cycle Co. Bovee,

would not hire them a wheel because
it was thought that the two men were
unable to handle it properly.

Mr.. Schultz told the reporter that he
thought his daughters shoulder was
dislOcated, and had sent a doctor down
there to attend her. He is looking for
the guilty parties and says that they
will be made to pay for the damage to
the wheel

peCOS Notes.

H. c. Zimmes and CHS Ritz have
recently added two new red sand stone
business hou es TO Pecos.
The canal system at Barstow was
sold recently for 81 500 to parties in
New Jersey, it cost 5000 600.
Pecos has fast finished a new two
story red sandstone school house.
Something she has needed for some
time.
A Mr.. Dunn has bought the old Sand
stone hotel at Pecos aud will put In q
big stock of goods at once. He is an
experienced business man.
During the past week there has been
quite q little furry in real estate in
Pecos and as a result quite lot of
property has changed hands.
The business of the late G. F. Thorn
ason was sold last week to J. <. Bowen
of Pecos and Joyce, Pruett 81 Co. OF
Roswell, and will be run under by the
firm.name of Bowen, Joyce & Co.
The election approaches and the
festive aztec is sad because there is no
pie in sight for him; very few officers
have any opposition and as there will
be no money spent as heretofore the
Mexican will not be in 1t.
Pecos has two newspapers now and
| two of everything else except post off,
ces aud 1t Is said some one wanted to
get up petition to have Uncle Sam
start another postoffice here for the
Convenience of those who do not like the
present Postmaster. All this is the
| result OF the old feud which has left a
deep seated hatred that reaches out to
such an extent that 1t boycots a man g
| business hence the necessity for the
man OF his own party to have an oppo.
| sitiOn business.

AT SANTIAGO.
Think Conquered Territory Should

of Spaniards-Shafter's Treatment

faction-Garcia's Course Approved

Santiago de Cuba, July 2S.-The Gu
bans here resent General Skaters at
titude in ignoring General Garcia and
in refusing to allow the Cuban troops
to enter Santiago. or to consult General
Garcia on terms of the surrender of
the city. General Garcia's action in
withdrawing his troops into the in
terror, his letter TO General Shafter ana
the resignation of his command, for
warded to General Gomez, are ap-
proved and applauded by all classes OF
natives.
General Garcia refused to accept a
subordinate place, insisting that he
was an ally. General Skaters an
swer. saying that this was q war be-
tween the United States and Spain, ir-
respective of Cuba's individual inter-
eStS, and President McKinley'S instruc-
tions with reference to the government
of the surrendered district, published
here yesterday. are interpreted as a
tacit avowal of American intention to
annex the island and not to grant in
dependence. This is opposed by the
Cubans. Senior Joaquin Castillo. presi-
dent of the San Carlos Cuban club, and
a brother of General Castillo. urges an
official protest to President Mckinley
without delay, saying: silence now
WOulO lIulCdIe our CONSENT 10 the
American attitude, which is a plain
breach of faith that Cubans cannot
possibly tolerate"
a meeting was held this afternoon at
the San Carlos club to discuss the
matter, and ii is probable that a pro-
test will be drawn up. which will be
submitted. 1t is understood that many
who were present at the meeting ia
vored the scheme of a protectorate by
the United States, with eventual an
nexation after five or six years; but TIE
protest is on a matter of principle,
main objection being the continuation
in office of Spanish officials appointed
by Madrid, on the ground that Span
iards, as a conquered nation, should not
be vested with authority over Cubans,
the allies and coadjutors of the United
States, and the representatives of a
free and independent people. Such is
understood to have been the tenor of
the meeting.
