Marathon. town of 500 people 200
miles east of El Paso. Texas. was under
heavy guard Friday owing to the re-
port that band of sixty armed Mexi-
cans had crosse d the Rio Grand from
Mexico.
Scouts sent out yesterday have brou-
ght in word that the Mexicans are
scattered into numerous groups and
they are making their way into the
ChisOm mountains on the Texas side of
the river. 1t is now thought that they
are gathering for raid into Mexico.
Armed bands of Mexicans have been
crossing the Texas at Boquellias and
other places along the river for sever
al days, it is reported.
Last night entries were posted at all
of the approaches in the town and the
citizens slept in their arms.
Marathon is about 100 miles from
Rock Springs, where the burning of
Antonio Rodiguez took place.

D.. Rock PIeased With In
eeees& Drawn

The meetings that were held by C.
W. Rook At Julesburg, Ovid and Sedg-
wick resulted in q committee Of four
being appointed from exch section of
the district. This committee with some
other interested parties went to the
head Of the intake ditch on Tuesday of
this week and prospected for water.
Repeated borings were made: levels
taken and general look over that Sec
ton Of the country taken.
There was found to be q very large
amount of water in the gravel strata
reaching within four or five feet of the
top Of the ground and holes bored in
to this strata were filled in few sec.
onds.
The general outline and composition
of the country is about the same and il
is thought practical to construct under.
flow bitches at the head of all the ditch
es of the district.
From all Indications it looks yer,
promising to secure hundred secont
feet in each ditch, a conservative es
innate. This amount flowing constant
ly would give US much better water
supply than we usually enjoy.
The committee is. to go to Kearney
Thursday and general meeting of al
water users and others interested is
called to meet at Ovid at 3 o'clock Sat.
urday to hear the report of the investi-
eating committee as to the advisability
of continuing the investigation further.
All interested should be present to hear
this report and to take part in the ac.
tion on the matter

Messing Escapes

Messing who is being held for trial
at the next regular term of court broke
Jail and successfully made his escape
Wednesday. A large party of citizens
turned out for the search, but darkness
came too soon, and the hunt had to be
abandoned.
1t has been frequently argued that
persons held to answer crime be treat
ed with more consideration than they
usually receive, but men as rule who
are bound over to answer serious
charge can not safely be treated with
any liberties, such as the use of the
corridors of the Jail. This incident will
serve useful lesson and officers here
after will not be severely criticised for
using some severity in the care of
prisoners.

Good Roads

Good roads mean progress and pros
perity. a benefit to the towns and an
advantage to people who live in the
country. Good roads, like good streets
make habitation along them most de-
sirable; they enhance the value of the
farm lands, facilitate transportation,
and add wealth to the producers and
consumers. They economize travel;
they save wear and tear; they beautify
the country; they aid social; religious,
educational and industrial progress.
They mean the economical transporta-
tion of marketable products; they have
a money value for our ordinary concep-
tion
Good roads mean prosperous farm
ers and more cultivated farms. By re-
ducing the cost of transportation they
enable the farmer to market his pro-
duce at lower price and at larger
profit.
The truth,ef tAs dschratiee Of Chaa,
Sumner fffy ySars Ag6 that 'stks Two
greatest forces for the advancement of
civilization are the schoolmaster ana
good roads,, is emphasized by the ex-
prance of the intervening years.
