Americans at the Front Give
Them Credit for Great
Bravery.


Americans who were in the front
ranks of Garibaldfs command when
the cuartel was taken declare that the
men who did the heaviest fighting and
were the real heroes of the defence of
the barracks were not soldiers of Ma
varro's command. but were volunteer
citizens who did not know what the
word surrender meant
Talking OF the final capture OF the
barracks and the streets leading up to
1t, A. A. Lea, who says that any old
place he hangs his hat is home sweet
home to him. but who chooses to hang
it in Ell Paso, says: we came into
town last night. and being wearied
from fighting the previous day. we laid
down to rest. At s o'clock this morning
we were far up into the town and had
secured considerable advantage.
About 10 o'clock we were within
half a block of the barracks. Navarro
sent messenger to Garibaldi and told
him he would like to have a talk with
him. Garibaldi sent back word that
he had no time TO talk and IL Navarro
wanted to surrender he had better be
quick about it, We waited for 20 min
utes and the messenger failed TO re-
turn. Then Garibaldi ordered that we
resume firing and we got at 1t with a
vim. We threw bombs into the build
ings near the barracks and into the
barracks themselves. For 40 minutes
the federals came back at us and came
back strong.

done by the Mexican government at a
great expense to keep the river from

building a line Of Notifications for the
rebels that extended from the adobe
house opposite the union station to the
Santa Fe and Stanton street bridges.

Charles Stevens who SAYS he was a
prisoner in the Juarez jail during the
siege, came to Ell Paso yesterday and
said that the federal soldiers de-
Tending the jail shared their last piece
of bread and their last drop OF water

diers defending the jail were for two
days practically without food or wa

The jail is in charge Of insurrectos
and is filled with prisoners-federal
soldiers. With these are two officers, L
Biquinto Gomez. first lieutenant, and
F. Dominique Gonzales. another lieu
tenant. The remainder OF the officers
are held prisoners in the barracks,
where they are being closely guarded

The Surest Way
To Remove Hairs
(From Health and Beauty Notes.)

(From Health and Beauty Notes.)
A new and simple powder is fast
supp1anting the electric needle for re-
moving superfluous growths from the

known as delatone, is the discovery OF
a famous Russian scientist, and the
ease with which it IS used and the
satisfactory results always following
favorably recommend it to persons
afflicted with hairy growths.
Get an original package of delatone
from nearby druggist and with some
water mix enough into a paste to
thickly cover the parts Let remain
two or three minutes. then rub off and

You may find delatone a trifle ex-
