Be Given Tomorrbw Evening at

that showers are predicted for tomor
row the members of the Womans'

pone their Plaza Fete until Tuesday,

group pictures in a number of differ

star caste and it promises to be one of
the most unique theatrical events ever
seen in Santa Fe.

formance, have worked hard to make
it a success and they have assurances
that it will be greeted by a large aud

vicitim of a brutal assault last week
when he was attacked by Dr. Nathan
Bovd whom he was cross-examining

face was the only wound inflicted in
the encounter.

fight was in progress before Receiver
H. D. Bowman and Special Agent
Frank Grygla, of Santa Fe. Dr. Boyd

witness Boyd while being cross-examined
became angry at questions
put to him, and without a moment's
warning sprang upon Wade, striking
him a severe blow in the face. Spe
cial Agent Grygla Interfered at this,
juncture seizing Boyd and preventing
the latter from further attacking
Wade.
The unexpected assault brought the
examination to an abrupt ending. Dr.
Boyd at once left for his home in the
Organ Mountains, but will be arrest
ed on his return here upon a com
plaint sworn out by Special Agent
Grygla.
Attorney Wade who is much small
er than his assailant in addition to
his physical handicap is extremely
