A-Pleniy as Seven
Beasts Killed At
Matamoros
Approximately 4.000 citizen* of
two republics comfortably filled the
new Matamoros Bull Ring Thurs
day afternoon to cheer the per
formances of exponents of the na
tions 1 pastime of Mexico. Amer
icans celebrating the Fourth of
July composed a large percent of
the crowd.
With three Xajay bulls and four
from the Santo Domingo hacienda,
the three matadors had ample op
portunity to display their skill. A
Conception of the chance that the
fighters were taking was forceful
ly brought to the eyes of the spec
tators when Jose Salas "El Sirio”,
in attempting to make the kill on
the third bull, was gored high on
his right thigh, the wound narrow
ly missing a puncture of the ab
domen. The fight continued with
two remaining matadors in action.

Horse Knocked Down
| A genuine thrill was furnished
the spectators when the third bull,
apparently having sunk to earth for
the last time, leaped to his feet
when the puntlllero appeared, and
offered a few more minutes of
k fighting. Probably one of the out
I standing exhibition, especially for
I those in the lower tiers of seats,
i came with the fight waged by the
» fifth bull, who seemed to have a
k positive reluctance about staying in
the arena. The best coaxing which
matadors and banderilleros could
offer had no great effect, a* the
bull twice leaped the fence sur
rounding the arena and made
charging forays around the run
way.
Of great Interest to followers of
the Southern Republic's national
pastime was the appearance of a

spent 30 years In bull rings and Is
said to be the best picador in Mex
ico In playing the sixth bull, his

from the saddle. At that moment
the bugle sounded the signal for
the ring to be cleared and the

Miguel Gutierrez, and children.
Gutierrez was a well-known mata
dor recently gored to death. Sliver
coins were thrown into the a tna
by spectators, while matadors and
banderilleros gathered them in their
capes and presented them to the
widow.
Ramos Most Popular
Leopoldo Ramos, who came to
Matamoros from bullfights in Tam
pico. proved to be the more popular
with the spectators. Popular ap
plause determined that he was the
choice of the spectators to make
the final kill.
Originally planned to open three
weeks ago. the first fight in the
new bullring was halted by rain.
Thursday the fights were carrier on
under sunny skies until a light
shower drove many of those on the
shady side to the top tier under a
protecting roof, while Ramos was
playing the last bull.
It Is understood that a number of
persons were booked by city police
for throwing hats, bottles and oth
er articles into the arena. It is
against Mexican law to throw any
article into the arena during the
fight.

Rafael Lopez. Roman Guzman.
Manuel Gomez Blanco, Feliciano
Villarreal, and Jesus Melendez.

Public Sentiment
Must Be Aroused,
Governor Tells Bar
HOUSTON. July 5. (&>—Pleas for
law enforcement and for profes
Kional consciousness designed to curb
I activities of nondescript lawyers
were before the Texas Bar Associa
tion convention here Friday.
Saying that crime already has cost
tco much in Texas, Governor James
V. Allred told the attorneys Thurs
day that enforcement would be pos
sible only when public sentiment
L was aroused.
Ife* Before the governor spoke. H C
T Pipkin of Amarillo, president of the
f bar association, said that his “appeal
' to the rank and file of the bar as
\ sociation is that we shall, under the
goad of professional consciousness.
\ oreak the bonds ol lethargy and in
difference and that with renewed
I inspiration and determination we
Shall set ourselves to the serious
task of building up a great profes
eional organization.
Governor Allred, who recently us
ed Texas Rangers to close gambling
houses and saloons, said he consid
ered it the constitutional duty of the
chief executive to * cause the laws to
be enforced."
“Our self-respect, our need for
preservation demand, in the immor
tal words of James Stephen Hogg,
that 'the law’ should be enforced',”
ht said. “This can only be done when
public sentiment is aroused and
when they will demand it of local
officers. After all. the state gov
ernment is powerless finally to up
hold the laws In any community un
less the better element of our citi
zenship will back it up."
He expressed the opinion that the
new state police organization, which
he said would begin functioning next
month, woul! prove an effective aid
in the war against criminals.
Regarding the legislature’s fail
ure to enact laws recommended by
the bar association. Pipkin sa.d the
program merely had been delayed,
not defeated.
