honor of their distinguished
guest, Hon. George II. Murphy,

large, who was in Matamoros on

The handsome parlor at the con-
sulate lends itself very appro-
priately to social functions, and
the numerous beautiful cut flowers
which adorned it last evening
made it even more attractive than
usual. Besides the guest of honor

mander of Matamoros, Rafael

AN IMPORTANT ARREST
Two Men Charged With Riverside Park
Assault and Robbery.

The police this morning arrested
one Pancho Monies, who is charged
with the crime of assault and
robbery against Juan Rios, which
was committed last Thursday night
in Riverside Park. The evidence
against Monies seems very strong,
as Rios identifies him as his as
sailant, and other witnesses affirm
that they saw him following the
old man from the station. Monies
is suspected of other crimes and
has the reputation of being a
professional smuggler. He has
already served one sentence in the
penitentiary and it looks as if he
would have another chance to earn
his living by hard labor in that
same resort.
Another man, who is charged
with being an accomplice of
Monies in the Riverside Park
crime, was also arrested this morn
ing and put in jail with Monies.
Both will have an examining trial
TOMORROW.
