Victor Moore, Nuckolls was asked why
he had attempted to set up In his de-
fense the allegation from witneses he
had summoned that Mrs. Rhein was
an immoral woman. The answer was
explosive: “Because that man brings
me into this court and tries to take
my liberty away, to throw me into Jail.
I am seeking to defend myself."
Asked about his record as a healer,
and the time ne became authorized as

The evidence of R. C. Davis, Nuck-
olls declared, was absolutely false. He
had never stated to Davla that Mrs
Rhein was immoral.
Attorney Moore asked: "Did you
ever read an article by Mrs. Eddy on
Slander?" and vigorous objections
from defendant’s counsel were sus-
tained by Judge Eylar.
Then reading from a book of Chris-
tian Science laws and regulation's,
Moore asked If Scientists were not
particularly warned against, judging
and condemning. This brought anoth-
er storm of objections, and Judge Ey-
lar, with a dry smile, suggested that
the case was being tried by the stat-
utes of the state of Texas and not by
the law's of Christian Science.
Nuckolls gave his definition of repu-
tation the general public opinion, and
volunteered: “I believe reputation
for chastity stands a long time, neigh-
bor. I would not try to say how long,
unless the judge orders me to. When
reputation for chastity Is oncj bad, I
can not fix a time to make it good."
Nuckollls was on the stand when
court adjourned. His declaration that
ho was seeking to defend himself
caused some demonstration from the
supporters of the First, church.
Once, when Counsel Jones, for de-
fendant, was arguing an objection
with opposing counsel, the court advis-
ed him to make his objections to the

resided on South Stanton street, died ........
at the Providence hospital last night
at 8:30 o'clock, as a result of injuries
received from one of the cars on the
Juarez line between Ninth and Tenth
streets yesterday afternoon.
It seems that Juarez was attempt-
ing to steal a ride by standing on the
fender on the rear of the car and
when atetmptlng to alight between
Ninth and Tenth streets was thrown
to the ground with such force that his
injuries proved fatal. The car was
moving rapidly and it is said that he
stepped from the fender with his
back to the car, and losing his bal-
ance. his head hit the ground with
such force that the blood spurted from
his ears and mouth. He was removed
to the Providence hospital, where he
received medical attention, but to no
avail. The remains were removed from
the hospital laBt night to the parlors
of a local undertaking firm, where they
are held pending arrangements for in-
terment.

were fined $15 each on a charge of
fighting. A charge of disturbing the
peace against Pat Dwyer was dis-
missed.
Samaniego testified that the Dwyers
had been the aggressors In the fight
in the saloon, and that both of them
were doing their best to beat him.
Pat Dwyer swore that he had tried to
separate the combatants, and that his
coat had been torn for his pains.
The arresting officer and the pro-
prietor of the saloon also testified. The
saloon man had not seen the fight,
because he had been busy in another
part of his place.

JUAN ESTRADA BADLY HURT BY
EXPLODING GAS PIPE.
Fourteen Year Old Boy Has Leg
Broken Twice and Hand Badly
Mangled Result of Hammering Sec-
tion of Gas Pipe Loaded With Pow-
der—Amputation May be Necessary.
With his left leg broken in two
places and two fingers of his left hand
badly mangled as a result of the ex-
plosion of a piece of gas pipe filled
with powder, Juan Estrada, aged 14
years, was taken to the Hotel Dieu
yesterday afternoon.
The lad Is a son of Pedro Estrada,
a funeral director ar 409 South Ore-
gon stre<et, and was playing with the
pipe in the rear of t'he Luitz drug
store at the corner of 4th and Stanton
streets when the explosion occurred.
The noise of the explosion was ter-
rific and was heard for quite a distance
from the scene of the accident.
After removal to the hospital he
received medical attention froili Drs.
Grace and Werley and at a late hour
last night was doing nicely. Until
the case has developed further It. is
not known if amputation of either
member will be necessary.

The ladies of the league are greatly
interested in this movement and have
set aside the sum of $190 to further
the cause. They hope to realize
enough from the publication of the
magazine to considerably augment this
amount.

Wife of Herbert Boies Dies From
Brain Fever in Waterloo—News
Kept From Father-in-Law.
A telegram received by Dr. Henry
F. Hoyt yesterday told of the death
from brain fever of Mrs. Herbert
Boies, In Waterloo. Iowa Mrs, Boies
is the wife of ex-Governor Boies' son,
and her illness, coming on the day

father’s illness here, kept him from
his father's bedside.
Dr. Hoyt will not give the nows of
the daughter-in-law's death to Govern-
or Boies until he shows a stronger

j be caused . by the shock.
The physician issued the following
statement last night of the favorable
condition of his distinguished patient:
“Governor Boies is a trifle stronger to-
night and is resting comfortably. He
had a had coughing attack this morn-
ing that left him weak, but has gained

Mr. Aires Dixon, claim agent of
the street railway company, has been
a regular attendant at the recent
shows visiting El Paso and it Is al-
leged that when the Red Feather com-
pany and Mr. Chas. Hanford were
showing here he ventured in the wings

of pursuading the street car company
to purchase- a complete suit of armor
of the most approved pattern, for each
and every motorinan and conductor
employed In El Paso, lie thinks it
will lessen their chances of meeting
with accident that is, if Mexicans driv-
ing cows retain their proficiency in
throwing rocks. f
For that Is where he got the Idea.
Our Mexican friend was driving ltossy
in from her pasture green—or what-
ever color you wish to call them—and
had managed to persuade tier along
until they arrived where the Park
street car line crosses the Texas and
Pacific railway- About that time a
ear arrived at the crossing, the con-
ductor jumped off the car and rushed
to the front to ascertain if they had
the right of way. Observing nothing
hut Pancho and his cow he gave the
motorinan the high Dali—or something
like that—and stood ready to catch the
car.
It was here that the Mexican dem-
onstrates] that when it comes to
chunking a few chunks the Hon. Mr.
Lajoe is a down aud outer. Seizing a
rock and doubling up in the most ap-
proved style, he let go. The rock-
struck Bossy's horn; glanced and ac-
celerated the conductor’s cowlick; con-
tinued Its curving way, broke through
the window guarding the motorman
and finally stopped by that broad ex-
panse covered by a blue, brass but-
toned vest,

Abdomen With Knife.
Joaquin Apodaca, driver of a scav-

men last night at the corner of Ninth
and El Paso streets and stabbed by

According to the driver's statement,

with a big knife, and Apodaca took
