: The chain gang is situated near the
Browns cross roads and is working
on the Ehrhardt-Bamberg road. The
writer has often spoke through these
columns of the much-needed work
on our road. and at last! we are. re-
alizing how blessed it is to wait. The
Lemon Swamp crossing is being
shortened and cut wider, till now it
presents a picturesque scene Of love
illness, not the narrow, bugaboo look
ing hiding place of former history.
We are glad to speak in thanks along
this line, as we have so often COM
planned of our neglected highway,
that we had begun to fear of being
termed chronic grumbler, but hope
to be able to redeem ourself on that
point long. before the accommodating
guards and our worthy supervisor has
left the Ehrhardt-Bamberg road TO
renovate in other districts. Thanks.

This is the whisper that has gone

down the Rio Grande. If it is true

it means that the revolutionists have
at their head a man superior in militia
ry training to any other man in MexA-

Gen. Reyes, once bosom friend %
Gen. Diaz, Is now said to be an exile
from his country. He was sent =
year ago to Paris, France, on q mil
itary mission" Since then no wor1
has come from him until today, when
the cautious words were sent from
Matamoras to Las Vegas. 1t was re-
ported among the Mexicans that no
had already taken passage for New
York and would reach Eagle Pass
withing ten days.
Reyes was the governor OF the
State of Nuevo Leon, the hot bed OF
revolution in Mexico. During the last
campaign for President of Mexico
some of his admirers proposed his
name as vice president.
Subsequent events appeared to
prove that Reyes, while avowing per-
feet amity and friendship for Diazs
was plotting for his downfall
Then it was that the stirring events
Of May, 1909, occurred. Reyes was
surrounded by troops and was to all
intents and purposes, prisoner Ho

sent on the foreign mission.

claim he has strong following IN an
