heavy artillery. Mr. John IMVItt who
as Chief Clerk of the United mates
Ordnance Department and the writer
f this sketch (prmed a plan to cross the
river from Brownsville to Matamorns to
witness the Inauguration of the new
opera-house just then completed and for
which a genalne Italian opera troupe
had been engaged at heavy expense.
They elartcd at about 4 o'clock In the
afternoon for the " Heroic City"
for this Is what the capital letter
II" Implies which Is placed as a prefix
lo the nam Matamorns by all Mexicans.
If recollectloa be correot "Los Huge-
nots" was to be performed and tickets
were sold at $2 at which price the whole
bouse was sold out long before the per-
formance commenced. The party after
reaching the city In arlcklty caretella"
procured tlokets and then rMd attention
toward procuring lodging which after
little trouble was seoured with a
promise ot a good supper by Messrs.
Greeie and lllancblnl.
Having thus made provision foreverv-
tblng needed lor the temporal comfort
of the party a proposition to take a gen-
eral view of the oily was made and car-
ried out since the three tlrst named gen-
tlemen had never been In Matamoras be-
fore. The "plaza f lapllla" common
ly oanea .jackass piaza was visited.
Here the same uolque sights can be seen
In the way. of vendors of the Mexican
national dishes as the scene presents It-
self to the visitor or the Military plnza of
Han Antonio. The next point of Inter-
est was the Cathedral with Its perforated
steeples caused by the bullets of dlller-
ent besieging and besieged factions who
woaiu taao reiuge in anu near tois tem-
ple of worship. It had In the meantime
grown dark. The moon would net rise
until about 0 p. m. and the old-fashioned
oil lamps placed at a far dlstanoe
gave but poor Illumination to the
streets. The two oRlcers were dressed
n civilian costume. In order not to at
tract attention and were walklag to-
gether arm In arm followed by Mr. De-
Wltt and the writer. When In the street
next back of the Cathedral near the o'U
Gubernatorial Palace and Just before
earning Isto a glare of light streaming
out of a grocery store the party was at-
tacacu iroin toe rear; one oi me oiucers
and the writer received a bit with the
but end or a pistol in the back. While
simultaneously with the exclamation:
"Take that g tl d m you I" a shot was
fired bitting DeWItt In Iront on the left
shoulder the ball ranging down to the
heart and killing him Instantly : bo fell
Into the arms or his companion ex-
claiming "Oh Uod I am shot I"
iteport was at once made to police
headquarters by one of the party while
tbeotber two remained with their dead
comrade and friend whose body was
soon afler removed to the police station.
The two olllcers were taken In custody
and as soon as the third one returned
fiom a useless search after some Ameri-
can friends was also arrested at Green's
restaurant. They were then taken to
police beadquariers and searched all
articles or value and everything that
tueir Dockets contained taken awar anu
then locked up In the worst and mean
est uungeon in tne prison uy consid-
erable talklntr and the nromlse of re-
ward the guard furnished some two or
tnree Mexican unp tallow candles which
were planted Into the soft dirt floor
only half of which was covered with
loose brick. These were raised by the
trio In making small piles and placing
tneir nanukercnteis on mem as seats
since anything of that nature was con
splcuously absent.
The nlirht nassea on slowly and a
more miserable and bitter night full of
Ironical contemplation probably was
never spent by man. When dawn at
last made its appearance a further mom
lse of reward softened the descendant of
Montezuma an euard to est some coffee
fiom the establishment of Don lllan
cblnl which was brought to the prison
la the meantime the renort of the
shooting and killing of De Witt had
Soften across the Itlo Orande to Fort
rown and.Ilrownsvllle. Major-General
ueiiy oi me regular army wno was in
command of the fort at onoe took steps
to have us released. Colonel Branson
of the 62nd Keglment of Infantry was
sent over aooomnanled by two olUcers
of the stall and several non-cotnmls-stoned
officers and attended by Peter
-Nichols known nnder the sobrlauet

attorney and possessed of line llngulstlo

ait appearances was a naruenea anu
senile sinner but who. upon olose In
speotlen revealed the fact that there
were 10000 little devils dancing In his
dark eves.
Upon Inquiry what was the cause or
detention oi tne Americans tue only
aatwsr and excuse given was to have
them at the proper time as witnesses
for the examination In regard to the
murder. Colonel Brausen asked.
through the Interpreter Mr. Nichols
when this examination was to take
Dlace. The Alcalde with a peculiar
shrugglig of his shoulders and facial
gesticulation answered:
"Nolo puedo haoer hoy por ser muy
OOCUDkdO."
Colonel Bransen again asked could it
not be conveniently done to-day when
the already described features of the
satellite of Emperor m Maxlmll an
sttmed the transcendent features of Me-
llan deviltry
r answer said:
"I'ero lo pedra hacer manano o pasada
manana."
This was the straw that broke the
camel's back. Col. Bransen who was a
magnificent specimen of American
manhood stamped his case on the ce
ment floor. and.amDhasizlnareaoh word
told the Interpreter Mr. Nichols: "You

those men examined right now and li

This settled It. A wink with kls hand
and two words to an officer standing
near were sufficient. One of the Amer-
icans was at onoe brought Into the
office of the Alcalde a clerk was called.
