Arizona republican., 1910-10-26

previously disagreed or quarreled over
 something that arose on the spot is
 not known. Indeed. 1t is not known
 whether Nolan or Carr struck the first blow.
 At any rate, Carr picked up a large rock lying on the lawn and threw it with terrific force at Nolan, striking
 him just above the right ear Nolan
 staggered and fell to the ground. Carr
 walked out of the grounds, turned
 westward and was last seen going | down Central avenue, toward the city True to their Indian nature, not one
 of the pdpils who witnessed the af- fair called an official or offered to help Nolan. Alone and unaided, he
 made his way to the hospital, fully five hundred feet distant There a nurse bandaged his head, immediately afterward calling L. J. Holzworth. dis ciplinarian of the school. who went to his evening meal only few minutes before the two boys met, with such deplorable results.
 It was possibly fifteen minutes after Carr struck Nolan that MT. Holzworth reached the bedside of the injured lad At that instant Nolan was stricken with eonvuisions Every muscle in his body grew rigid and he went through horrible contortions
 Holzworth immediately telephoned Dr. Smith. temporarily employed to do the surgical work of the school Dr. Smith rushed out in his automobile and was followed by an ambulance, in which Nolan was taken to St. Joseph's hospital. He was on the operating table an hour and half after he was injured. During all that time he went from one convulsion to another and it was feared that he might die at any instant.
 AS soon as the ambulance left for the hospital, Disciplinarian Holzworth came to the city and notified the pol ice and sheriffs office. He was able to learn absolutely nothing of Carr after he was seen striding down Gen. tral avenue, with Phoenix as his ob- vious immediate destination.
 Telegrams and telephone messages have been sent out in all directions, giving a description of the fugitive and asking every one to be on the look out for him. It is only natural to sup pose that he will make for his home at Yuma.
 When Carr left the school he was dressed in one of the gray coats con- mOnly worn by students of that in- stitution. MT. Holzworth was unable to recall what kind of hat or cap he wore. He is. sixteen years old and looks even younger.
 tA ha | from Yuma four months ago. Mir. Holzworth has had little to do with him but is of the opinion that, on the whole, he has been a we'll behaved student
 Nolan. on the other hand, has a bad record. Last year he ran away, 1 shortly after he became a student at the Indian school and walked to Pres cott It was thought, however. that | he went the other way toward his | home at Gila Crossing As the river was in flood at the time he left, 1t | was suspected that he had been ! drowned in attempting to cross. The l Indian school authorities went to a 1 great deal of trouble and expense to | prove to his parents that he was not | dead. A man was even sent to the border line of Mexico. where 1t was a boy answering his descrip- | ton had been seen. This trip as well | as all other efforts, proved fruitless, and the runaway was given up as | dead. His parents grieved as much'I as it is possible for Indian parents to | grieve over lost son. Two months | ago Nolan surprised his old friends and teachers at the Indian school byl into the grounds, dressed like a Broadway dude in natty gray suit | and white cap. He said that he had | been working on a sheep ranch near Prescott but that he was tired of toll and ready to return to his studies.
 MT. Holzworth is not at all sur | prised that none of the pupils notified | him immediately that Nolan was hurt pr attempted to stop Carr To have done either thing, he says, would have been contrary to their nature Some of his assistants might have called him had they witnessed the fight but Tor any of the other pupils to have lone so would have been most un- usual It is rarely that one can be induced to tell of a fellow pupils wrong doing.
