the day prior to Heidelbergcr's death.

from Africa which led me to hope that

old home from an ignominious fate. Here

some ill-treatment that | took certain
steps which. indirectly, brought about the
tragedy.
In common with most old mansions
of the period the Hall has its hidden en-
frances and exits-though. in accordance
with certain ancient traditions the secret
of their existence is strictly preserved
among the family. With a view. there

DETENTION CAMP PLANNED.
Refugees From Matamoros to Be
Cared for Near Brownsville.

BROWNSVILLE, Tex, April 10
Plans for a detention camp for 1000
or 1900 persons have been made by
United States immigration authorities
here. To this camp the refugees from
Matamoros will be sent when the
Villa attack on that city begins AL
though Villa troops drew in clc SO to
Matamoros last night. the residents of
that city showed no signs of alarm.
The CarranZa monoplane at Mata-
moros has not yet been flown, although
apparently ready. An American auto
mobile repair man who was called to
Matamoros several times to help make
adjustments on the aeroplane was ac-
cused on his last trip Of being spy.
The monoplane lies In sight of the
American end of the bridge and the
automobile man backed away from
his accuSers about the plane until he
reached the bridge.
Villa troops investing Matamoros
drew in closer to the Carranza trenches
yesterday and Villa outposts found
shelter in the brush from five hundred
to eight hundred yards in front of the
defenses.
An American flag. carried by a Mex
ican-American ranchman on the Amer
lean side of the river, was fired on
from the Mexican side by men con-
cealed in the brush. The ranchman
was plotting a party of newspaper men
to ferry and the flag was intended for
use in the boat.
Ihe party by mistake appeared on the
river bank opposite the skirmish lines
and hoisted the flag for protection. Not
more than half a dozen bullets were fired
at them before they gained cover.
Juan Perales, a twelve-year-old Villa
cavalryman in the Red Cross hospital
here. died yesterday. He was the boy
who. Easter Sunday, promised not to cry
if a rabbit given him when his
wound operated on. An old rice mill
has been obtained by the Red Cross here
for use hospital in anticipation of
the next attack on Matamoros.
