Death of Viclorio.
Void i pecial lo tito New Mexican
iiih1t Ii1i: of El Pao, Oct. 19, wc
lia ve tlic following particulars of the
fight in which Victorio. the scourge of
the Southwest, perished:
Colonel l'lidl rcccive.i yesterday
from Doclor Mariano Snmauicgo, a
prominent citirn of Paso del Norte,
an account of a tiirht hetweeu the
Mexican troops under command of
Colonel .foii'iuin Terrassas aud the
Apaches which resulted in the killing
of Victorio and the almost utter ex
tinction ot his hand. The news wa
conveyed to Doctor Snmaniego by a
letter from hi brother living at Cari
sal, who obtained the full particulars
from a young officer of Terraesas
troops, who had just come from the
ceiie of the light with a detachment
to escort a wagon train. The Mexi
can forces met the Apaches oil the af
ternoon of the Hth, hst Friday. Tcr
rassas immediately attacked them but
they retreated and took position on
two hills, caled Los Castillos, whiclí
they held against the advauce ofthe
Mexicans, until they were surround
ed when they gave up one of the hills
and retired to the other. Night com
ing on, Terrajas posted his men in
favorable positions, completely sur
rounding t !m Apaches and at sunrise
the next morning ordered auothcrad
vanec and attack. Caught like rats in
a trap, and unable to retreat, thejlndi
ans fought desperately, Victoria lead
ing them until he was killed. At nine
in the morning the light was ended
ami tiring ceased. All of the Apache
band who had not been killed were
taken prisoners, and all their stock
and cam) utensils captured.
The result of the tight is this, the
bodies of Victorio and several of his
Mib-eliieis were recognized. In addi
tion to the chief himself fifty warriors
and eighteen women and children
wi re killed. Seventy bucks, squaws
and pappooses were taken prisoners
and two hundred and eighty horses
and mulffl which had been stolen were
recovered.
The news when received here crea
ted a sensation aud iu Paso del Norte
and in the latter place there is talk oí
presenting Colonel Tcrrassas with a
testimonial of esteem for his conduct
of the campaign in Mexico. The fact
is fully recognized, however, that
while this victory is due directly to
( 'olonel Tcrrassas and hu command,
to the American troops who droyt
i he Apaches lrom New Mexico into
Mexico and prevented them from es
caping Tt rrafcas and returning, by
their vigilante, belongs part of the
credit.
Los Castillos, the twu hills which
were the scene of the tight, are loca
ted in lb" southeastern comer of the
State of Chihuahua, near the border
of the State of Coahuila. They are
rocky and high, presenting much the
appearance of artificial fortresses,
bene? their name, "the coatíes or
for tf--." id.
Married.
Yesterday, Dr. E. C. llenriques, of
this city, was married toMrs. Emelia
Otero de flaca, of the upper town.
The marriage was performed by Rev.
J. M. Cotidert, parish priest, at the
residence of the lion. M. A. Otero,
the uncle of the bride. The affair
was private, only a few intimate
friends witnessing the ceremony. The
bride was the wiiow of the late Don
1 ! o 1 1 1 to Baca, and is a lady of fine cul
ture, most amiable disposition aud
possessed of beauty and gracetnl ac
complishments. Dr. Henrique is a
successful young physic nn of many
good qualities, and has practiced Ids
professitu iu this city for the past
yea'". The twain after an early din
ner atMr, Otero's, took the train for
a bridal trip to Denver and the east.
We wish them a large measure of
happiness through life.
The sociable at the residence of
Ucv. Eastman, pastor of the Presby
terian church, last night was quite
largely attended. It was a most suc
cessful affair. The house was full of
people from both sides of the river
and everyone enjoyed himself or her
self rationally and well. It is good
for folks to thus meet together aud
gel acquintcd. It smooths out the
wrinkles and cares of life aud makes
men and women better, A splendid
lunch, saudwitches, cake, hot coffee
and cream, was served. The contri
bution box was passed and received a
good recognition. Such sociables will
re ievc the monotony of long winter
evenings There were too many pres
ent to enumerate.
Mr. W. (I. Ward commenced yes
terday to tear down the old Wagner
(louse for Messrs. Ilupe & Castle.
The force made a considerable im
pression on the old building.
Wttsr Work.
Mr. Chappel, of Trinidad, who put
iu water works for that town arrived
yesterday In this city for (he purpose
ot investigating the opportunity to
establish similar works here it he can
meet with proper encouragement. It
behooves us to give proper attention
to this matter at the present. It will
go a great ways toward making our
town attractive. It would be gener
ally beneficial in numerous ways, not
only in furuishiug to hand pure water
for all culinary purposes but it would
enable people at small expense to cul
tivate flowers, gardens, shrubbery,
beautify and adorn homes. It would
bo just the institution to make the
park successful and a blooming spot
where now the red dust whirls or the
deep and sticky mud appals alternate
ly. It has been the making of Trini
dad aud it is to be hoped that our en
terprising citizens will meet together
and extend to Mr. Chappel such in
ducements as will enable him to un
dertake the enterprise. Let us get
his views upon (he subject at a public
meeting and they will likely strike
our people favorably.
The Albuquerque Daily Journal
publishes the following excuse for not
appearing one evening: "On account
of the continued inebriety of typogra
phers heretofore in the employ of the
Journal, the paper could not be is
sued yesterday. The management has
now engaged sober, reliable men, who
arc on their way here from the East
and after their arrival the readers of
the Journal may expect its appearance
every evening at five o'clock ; until
then as often as the matter can be put
iu type." When our printers get
slightly inebriated or attend a hanging
bee, or get caught out on high ball, or
a big fire renders them tired, then we
set up the paper ourselves and go
ahead as naturally as if nothing had
happened. A man must be serene
and not swear but pull light through
until he strikes clear sailing again.
We don't blame the Journal for miss
ing an issue but it gives us an oppor
tunity to remark that the Gazette
has never missed an issue since it was
founded, though we havo occasionally
seen the sun riso on two consecutive
days without sleep. We have had ri
ots, bloodshed, death, fire, floods,
Bickness, calamity, occasionally lack
of paper or ink, broken presses, pied
forms and every ill to which a fron
tier printing office is heir to, yet the
old Gazette has ever gone forth on
time, as regularly as Mother Earth has
turned us each morning to greet the
blazing sun. Back of that regularity
no one but the managing editor of
a Mew Mexico daily can iu the least
comprehend the unending anxiety,
the ceaseless strain, tne constant aud
rapid work which brings it forth on
time. It would be Just as easy to un
derstand the magnitude of space or
the infinite divisibility of matter. But
keep good "uatured Brother Sprnd
ling, preserve your digestive organs
and husband the gray matter of your
brain, or else you will get badly rat
tled iu six mouths time.

Capt. Wilkinson showed us some
ore from the Homestake at a depth of
80 feet below the original discover.
From the amount of free gold in the
quartz shown, it does not look as
though the mine was a blowout. Such
incrustations of gold from such a
depth goes far to show that this is not
blow out or a blow in, but a veritable
bonanza. From our knowledge of
mineralogy, and any first class news
paper publisher in a mineral country,
is supposed to know as much as any
body, we would prontunce this with
out hesitation the richest gold mine
iu all the world and challenge a show
down.
