DEER FLAT

Whittier's "Snowbound" was
brought forcibly to mind during the
recent snow storm. The deep snow
naturally caused some inconvenience
but no damage was done. School was
closed Thursday and Friday. The in
terurban cars made more or less
(somewhat less) regular trips and Mr..
Paine, the mailcarrier, made his round
every day except Thursday.
Friday morning eight-horse teams
begin "To break the drifted highways
out. From every barn team afoot,
at every house a new recruit" This
indeed was a novel sight for this
neck of the woods. By the time the
roads and paths were made chinook
started up and soon filled the careful
" shoveled paths with water. making
It necessary for the pedestrian to take

the water.

Week of PRAYER.

The week of prayer will begin next
week and this is the most important
thing for the college man and woman,
in school days and after he has left
the school. The week of prayer is
held every year at the college and the
students do not have to be afriad to
come and hear the lectures given by
Rev. Barnum, of South Boise, who is
good fellow and comes here with
lots of Christianity behind him and
has the two Christian associations
backing him up and are going to
make this years week of prayer one
of the colleges most important
things. Whatsoever a man soweth
that also he shall reap" That is a
good example for some of the students
to take down andthink of it. An
other text is John $40: "For God sc
loved the world. that he gave his only
|begotten son. that whatsoever believetf
in him should not perish, but he that
have everlasting. life" Many people
and students are throwing the biggest

IN 1887 a lieutenant from the Mexi-
IAN army pursued a Mexican girl
across the border into the United
States, seized her, and dragged her
Jack across the line. The great Demo
crat Grover Cleveland was then Pres
dent of the United States. She was
a Mexican girl, but she was on Amer
ican territory, and he sent the Army
to the border, with instructions that
it should go, if necessary, to the City
of Mexico to seize the man who had
violated the integrity Of American
territory. The result of it was that
this lieutenant was given over at once
and was inca rcerated in the peniten-
tiary for 20 years. That decisive act
upon the part of that great Demo
crat established order upon the Dor
der Of Mexico for a decade to follow.
That was something, sir, the Mexi-
can could understand. He had no

VILLA FLEES TO
HIS OLD RETREAT
BANDIT CHIEF REPORTED TO BE
SURROUNDED BY AMERICAN
AND MEXICAN TROOPS.
II Bandit Makes a Stand it is Believed
Campaign VIII Soon Be Over, But
1t 10 Possible He May Hide
in Mountains.

Ell Paso, Texas.-After marching
more than 10 miles into Mexico in
record marching time of forty-two
hours, or at a speed of about thirty
three miles a day. the American pu-
nitive expedition has received infor-
nation apparently locating Francisco
Villa, the object of the chase.
Pancho Villa has been driven into
q trap by the rapid advance of the
American troops, according to the in
formation received here in wireless
dispatches from the front and in tele-
graphic messages to General Gabriel
Gavira, the Carranza commander at
Juarez.
Everything seems now to depend OF
the ability of the C~arranza garrison
to hold their end of the net On tire
sides the bandit is hemmed in by
strong Carranza CT umns, while on the
fourth the American soldiers are driv-
ing forward with amazing speed.
A dispatch from Washington says
Villa, fleeing with his outlaw follow
ers the advance of the United States
ex~peditionary forces In Mexico, has
reached his own country in the Guer
rero district, where high officers OF
the army said he may almost indef-
nitely evade capture. If the bandit
chieftain makes a stand, Washington
is satisfied the campaign will quickly
end; but il he leaves his followers he
can. military authorities agree, reach
q haven of safety in the nearby noun
tains in less than a days riding.
In the Guerrero district and in the
country adjacent to Babricora, Villa is
ut home. For years he operated there
in defiance Of the laws Of Mexico and
it's constituted authorities. The noun
tains to the west offer countless hid
ing places and routes of escape. If
hard pressed, Villa might, officials be-
lieve, abandon his men, don the garb
of a peon and flee so far into the south
that it would be exceedingly difficult
If not impossible to apprehend him.
