Washington, Nov. 3O.-The situa-
ton on the Mexican border has re-
Gently been rapidly growing worse.
General Steever has protested to the
war department against any reduction
OF the border patrol, such as was
about to be ordered. Many OF the
lesser insurgent leaders have devel-
oped great activity, adding their
quotas to the considerable force which
under General Salazar has been op-
Grating in the country between Colum-
bus, \. NJ, and Ell Paso. They have
thrown the whole border in that quar-
ter into a state Of disturbance and
unrest. Yesterday one Of the Rebel
bands struck a small town about fifty
miles south Of Durango and, after
wantonly destroying all the ranch
property in the n~eighborhood, practi-
cally exterminated the small garrison
Of about t~Wenty-four Federal troops.

Ing III man.
Garrick was the son Of an army
officer and was born at Angel Inn,
Hereford, England, in either 1716 or
1717. He was given a liberal educa-
ton, and when quite young took
part in amateur theatricals. When
he was old enough he set out to learn
the vocation Of a wine merchant, and
during his spare time he found a de-
light in taking sly peeps at the act
ing Of Colley Cibber, Quin and
Charles Macklin. all three Of whom
he later far surpassed in their pro-
fession.
He was established in the wine
business when he was twenty, but his
love of the stage came II to the
prejudice of his business. He was q
great friend of DR.. Johnson, the lex
icographer. and through him was in
troduced to a number OF important
| publishers and stage folk in London
He became warmly attached to Mar

doubt but that the displays of Earl

would have taken the grand sweep-
stakes prize for the potatoes raised
in southern Idaho and in the cen
trail part of the state did not com
pare with the ones raised here.
Superintendent Spoerry and pa
irons of the local public schools are
naturally quite put out on account
of the non arrival of the potato ex-
hibit from this county and tracer
has been sent after the shipment in
order that it may be found out just
where the delay occurred and who
was to blame for it.
Messrs Heathershaw and Irving
returned home Sunday and report
that they had delightful time at
Boise where they went at the ex-
pense of the state.
The first district prize for the
best exhibit of potatoes was award
ed to a Couer d Alene City boy,
Bryant Stove.

respected citizen of this community
died at his home on Main street of
Eatonville at 1890 today of heart

death came as a great shock to his
family and his many friends in this

$500 votes will he given to the
contestant who secures the most
votes in the intervening time
This means that every contestant
has an equal chance TO get this
additional prize which is one we'll
worth working for.
Some of the contestants have lost
heart this week when they found
cut how far the leaders were ahead.
But there is really no occasion to
give up so early in the game. The
leaders in the contest secured most
of their votes in a few days time
and it will only require 10 or IS
new subscriptions to about put the
lowest contestant up with the high
est ones. Contestants should write
to their friends out-of-town and
get them to subscribe for the Her
aid and there are a areat many
people in Boomers Ferry who have
been missed by contestants so far
who have solicited for new sub
scriptions. Many now taking the
paper will subscribe a year or two
in advance in order to help out
their friends. Then too, there are
many, many citizens of Passport,
Copeland, Porthill, Moravia and
smaller districts who do not take
the Herald and who would do so if
asked by q contestant. Now is the
time to get busy, work hard and
get your friends to work hard for
you. If you do so you cannot
help but be one of the winners i'll
