his HEAD CUT UP.
r. A. Elliott Of Tres Piedras at Santa
Fe for Medical Attention.

F. A. Elliott, proprietor of the Elliott
hotel in Tres Piedras, was in the city
yesterday receiving medical attention
for an ugly scalp wound just back of
his right ear. The wound was infiict-
ed by J. p. Cam, proprietor of a sa.
loon at Tres Piedras. The assault was
made in the dining room of Elliott's
place and, according to his version OF
the trouble. was unprovoked. To
representative OF the New Mexican he
stated this morning that the cause Of
the trouble was a meeting called by
Elliott and other citizens OF the town,
for the purpose Of attempting to take
steps for the moral and general better
ment OF the place. That was few
days ago. and Elliott says that on the
morning OF the assault he was In his
hotel when Cam entered. Elliott
greeted him as usual. but Cam failed
to respond or acknowledge the greet.
ing. After a moment. Cam said that
he was going to kill some one this
morning, at the same time using vile
epithet. Elliott states that he said:
Ipu ubH want W uO ilht
that. the graveyard is full now" Cam
then accused Elliott OF talking about
him, which the latter denied. Yes.
you have" said Cam, and you are
the man ! am going to kill" With
this he hurled his cup OF coffee in Ell.
liotts face. The latter turned his
head and received the blow in the back
of his head. He was felled to the
floor and states that as he lay there In
a half conscious state, Cam attempted
to hit him over the head with catsup
bottle. Mrs. Elliott rushed up behind
Cam and selling his arms prevented
his doing any further damage. Others
had gathered by this time. and there
was no further renewal OF the trouble
Mr.. Elliott has attempted to get Cam
placed under peace bonds. but will
have to go to Taos county to do that
He left for Taos today. He says that
Cam claims that he carries a gun al
OF the time. and brags on his prowess
and has given himself the reputation
OF being an all-round bad man.

Victim Of a Painful Accident Late Yes
terday Afternoon.

Gertrude Zirhut. the little daughter
of Mr.. a,ld Mrs. w. J. Zirhut, living on
Arno street. had the misfortune yestef-
day afternoon at 8 O'Clock to meet with
very painful accident. While play
ing with Miss Alice McMillin. a school
friend. at the latter's home. Miss Zir-
hut accidentally stepped on a piece OF
broken glass goblet. II was one of
those old fashioned heavy glass tum.
blers and was very sharp. II cut
through the shoe. making CHASTITY
wound in the foot and severing the
main artery OF the foot. The blood
flowed profusely and had II not been
for the presence OF mind OF Miss Me-
Millin, who remembered that she had
been taught in her physiology class at
school that In cases where an artery
was cut, the thing to do was to bind a
knotted handkerchief or bandage
around the limb above the wound and
stop the bleeding. Miss Zirhut would
have suffered the loss of more blood
than she did. As II was she tainted.
Two physicians were called and an
operation was performed The severed
artery was taken up and this afternoon
the little girl is resting easy.
Miss McMillin was highly praised
for the part she took in the affair.
Late last night the injured girl was
able TO be moved to her home.

Preachers Are Glad
the Bill Passed.

Church people In this city are over
joyed at the passage through the leg

Rev. DIR. Van Osdel. pastor Of the
First Baptist church. said: 1T was
a glorious victory for good morals.
The law making gambling a felony
in Washington should close every
gambling establishment in the state.

that by the new law Spokane will

$3.50. 900. It is better for that money.
which comes from the people. TO be
kept in the homes Of the city than
for 1t to go towards keeping up the
salaries OF $50 gamblers. The law Is
good; and believe 1t will be rigidly
enforced"
1t is said on good authority that
test case will be made of the new
law to see whether it is constitutions
al. The best attorneys in the city
will be engaged to fight the case.
Rev. DIR. Lambert. pastor of the
First Methodist church. said: II can
see nothing bbut good in the passage
OF this law. To me 1t looks like
many poor families who have been
suffering from this curse of gambling
will again begin to get n regular in
come. The money will go for clothing

NO PROVISION FOR
CATHOLIC COLLEGES
Indignation Is Aroused Because They Are Not
Included in Cecil Rhodes Scholarships
at Oxford.

The Catholic people of Spokane are
indignant over what they consider an
unjust discrimination against Catho-
lie colleges. Six presidents of the
northwestern colleges assembled In
Spokane yesterday to confer with DR..
Parkin, commissioner for the Cecil
Rhodes scholarships.
According to the will of the late
Cecil Rhodes. these scholarships will
be awarded to maintain at oxford two
students from every state in the
United States and three from each
Canadian and British province.
Although there are three Catholic
colleges in the northwestern states,
none of them was in any way notified
of yesterdays meeting despite the
fact that they were entitled to u
representation.
Rev. ii. J. Collier, s. j., project of
studies at Gonzaga college, made the
following statement this morning:
"Fair-minded men will certainly not
deny that the way In which we were
treated yesterday is well-founded
cause for grievance. At the meeting
held yesterday to decide the best way
OF awarding the Cecil Rhodes schol.
arships we were entirely ignored
even though from an educational
standpoint our institutions are 6
credit to the state.
1.-THE first mistake made by the con.
The Spokane press. [volume] (Spokane, Wash.) 1902-1939, 1903-03-05

ference was to agree to award the
scholarship by rotation instead OF
by competition. Only that student
should be entitled to the benefit OF
Mr.. Rhodes beauest who can prove
that he, above all others, is the most
brilliant. AS 1t Is, only a student
who has influence behind him can Sc
cure a scholarship. l do not hesitate
to say that In many cases the United
States will be represented at oxford
by veritable ounces. Just imagine
how we shall stand In the eyes of
Englishmen when our foremost schol-
airs turn out to be anything but edu-
Gated.
I'm the second place, our colleges
were entitled to a representation but
were not notified OF the meeting. Why
was such action taken? Personally l
was delegated to represent Mount An
gel college. Oregon. 1t would appear
as If they were afraid Of our reputa-
ton as educators to submit the
awarding of the scholarship to COM
petition, and they knew full we'll that
we would urge the adoption OF such
a system. We can assure the public
that the students whom we would
send to compete for the prize would
not only DO credit to the United
States, but would be. In many in
stances, capable Of occupying a pro-
fessorship In that celebrated institu-
ton"
