GORED BYA BULL,
BUTCHER IS DYING
James DriscoII, 81, Terribly
Wounded at Benning
Road Plant.

Following an attack and goring by
a vicious 2,100-pound white Holstein
bull in the stockyard of the Washing
ton Abattoir this morning. James Dris-
coll. sixty-seven years of age. a butcher
employed by the plant, of 1911 Benning
road, is in a dying condition at Cas-
ualty Hospital suffering from COM
pound fracture of the ribs and severe
CUTS and bruises, with accompanying
great loss OF blood.
Charley Creek. colored. of 75S 12h
street southeast, saw the bull trampling
and goring its victim and ran into the
stockyard with an electric box, used to
control animals by shooting current
into their bodies. He chased the bull
into smaller pen and sought aid for
the PROSTATE man.
Rushed to Hospital.
Driscoll was rushed to Casualty
Hospital in an automobile belonging
to Edward Kirby of Benning road.
where it was stated he has slight
chance for recovery
According to attendants at the
abattoir. Driscoll went into the stock
yards this morning to get a drink of
water when the bull, which he did
not know was al large. saw him and
made for him. Before he had time
to get out of the yard the bull was
upon him and knocked him down.
At the hospital, it was said that
Driscoll was gashed and bruised all
over. the body and is in comatose
state. being unable to talk. An X-ray
photograph is being taken to locate
the exact extent of the injuries and
in hope of possibly saving his life.
Creek is employed as a cattle killer
at the abattoir, and the electric box
is part ct the equipment used by
which. when a button is touched, will
project strong current of electricity
into the animals they come in con-
tact with.

SWEEPS HOSPITAL
By the Associated Press,

ROME, May 1S.-A disastrous fire
swept the historic hospital of Santo
Spirito. one of the most ancient and
picturesque charitable Institutions in
Rome. early today. Collapse of the
pavement isolated the chronic ward
Sixteen bodies have been extracted
from the burning ruins.
The institution accommodates near
~ 5000 inmates, and includes a hos
pital. lunatfc asylum, founding home
and a refuge for aged and infirm per-
sons.
The fire broke out shortly before
midnight in the laundry. At first it
seemed Insignificant, but it spread
RAPIDLY to the neighboring wards.
each containing thirty chronic suffer-
ers or inf1rm patients, who were
seized with panic. The shrieks of the
sufferers mingled with the cracking
of the flames ,while the atmosphere
rapidly became dense with smoke
Nurses and doctors quickly cleared
the next ward three of the patients
crawled out. Neighboring f1remen
rushed to the scene, but at the mo-
ment of their arrival the electric
lights were extinguished. adding to
the horror of the situation.
Pavement Gives Way.
AS the immense wooden beams of
the hospital fell there was a heavy,
grinding noise and the pavement col
lapsed. burying twenty Of the chronic
patients and rendering access to the
wards impossible.
Carabineers, royal guards, nurses
and doctors made heroic efforts to
save the patients, rushing through
the smoke and fire and bringing out
twelve, all of whom. however, were
dead from suffocation.
Several of the rescue parties were
injured The two wards were de-
stroyed, but the firemen saved the
rest OF the buildings.
The mayor and the prefect hur-
ried to the scene and assisted in
calming the terror r-stricken patients
who were saved, and who lay on the
floors waiting to be moved to the
surrounding institutions.

guarding the border they dashed
across the line at noon and began a
mad schamble for claims.
Lands on all sides Of the area had
been assigned to indian tribes, and
that which was opened to settlement
had been divided into 160 acre tracts.
Oklahoma derived its appellation as
