Hoping hat you will give the mat
ter the kindly and active consideration
which the nature of the object war
rants. we are. very sincerely yours.
The pupils Of the schools are re-
uuested to take particular notice of
the suggestion offered in the above let
ter which Is:
I'm case the children desire to make
contribution to the fund simultaneous
liz with the signing of their names. the
amount of any individual contribution
must be limited to 10 cents. The chill
dren need not give a penny unless hey
so desire. The essential object Is to Sc
cure all the signatures.
Superintendent Stapleton explained
his views on propositions relating to
subscription papers circulating IN
school rooms 10 the board of duca-
ton at its meeting Tuesday night. He
was opposed to such proceedings or
dinarily. but stated hat as this was
an extraordinary occasion he would
approve of the suggestion made by the
Maine monument committee. He de-
sired to obtain the views of the board
on the matter before he proceeded to
carry out the instructions Doc i'm

under the circumstances IL would be
proper to allow the pupils to contribute

but wished them to understand hat IT
was not COMPULSORY and that the chill
dren's signatures would be sufficient II
they were not prepared to make tie
contribution. ANY amount under 70

Fighting for "a sentiment.

The masses of the North will fight. and
fight hard and long. as we of the South
have had proved to us. Moreover, they
will fight for a sentiment as we also know
by eXperience-they will fight better for a
sentiment than for anything else. But
for the sentiment of theNorth about 1.-THE
old flag" and "the preservation of the
Union" South Carolina would now be "A
member of the Confe derate States of
America. That is a s~elf-evident propo-
sition. While that section utilized an
enormous immigration to recruit its ar
mics IL would have defeated the South
without much aid, because without ii,
it was still far stronger than the South.
Chicamauga. Gettysburg. Sh~arpsburg
and Fredericksburg proved its fighting
capacity. If W. do not recognize that we
can claim no credit for our own glorious
fighting for four years. and we would
have no excuse for our defeat.

SCHOOL FIRE SYSTEM.
To Teach the Young Idea How to Get
Ont of n Burning Building.

1t is very probable that the schools
of this city will adopt a popular method
now in vogue in the principal cities of
the United States. The proposition is to
train the pupils so that in the event of a
fire i'm the building they can make their
escape without confusion or panic. The
school board of trustees talked over the
proposition informally at its last meet
ing with Superintendent Stapleton, who
favors the plan. chief Mentrum of the
fire department, it is understood. offers
To instruct the pupils as to the proper
way to evacuate school rooms in emer-
gencies when their hasty exit is urgent

The plan is 10 have independent alarm

ton with the fire house by means of
separate and Independent wires. By
this arrangement. If a fire originates in

The morning and noon trains of the
Butte. Anaconda & Pacific yesterday
carried about $50 men and women from
this city to Butte and Silver Bow juno
ton. They went there to bid the VOL
unteers en- route to Manila an affec-
tionate farewell. -Four train loads of
soldiers passed through the junction
and the last section left for the South
shortly after s o'clock. Two trains
went from Camp by way of Butte and
two via Garrison. The Butte boys went
by Garrison and with the others
stopped for some time at the junction.
Butte sent two excursions trains down
to the junction. and for once during its
existence the little town had more visi-
tors than IL could comfortably handle.
So the throng spread out in all direc-
tions and took i'm the sights of the rail
o town and yards and bunkers. The
soldiers were all in high spirits and
glad that they were at last on the way
to Manila. They were sunburnt and
weatherbeaten. and the Anaconda boys
who left here with pink compilations
looked much different yesterday. They
looked like soldiers returning from war
instead of only making the start for
the scene of actual service.
There are not any large stocks Of
liquors and cigars in Silver Bow juno
ton. and soon after the multitude ar
rived there. cigars and beer were not to
be had at any price. There was a half
barrel of brandy in one saloon, and il
lasted 'ust long enough to give the
thirsty an appetite for more.
One jolly soldier. they say ii was

who assisted to take the man to the
city hall. Captain O'Brien and Officer
Powers were met on the way. and they
accompanied the first officers and their
charge to the Jail. There the China
man, after being thawed out and as
sured that he was in safe hands, num-
bled his story. which indicated that he
had been the victim of assault and rop-
berry.

he was assaulted by two negroes. who
pushed him in between the house and
went through his pockets, securing the

says he can identify the negroes.
Charley is the Chinaman who was
arrested together with three other men
a few weeks ago for smoking opium in
his house. No arrests have been made.
Charley has two ugly cuts in his fore

Enrce of "a Rine HuIIet.

In the English official regulations for
1898 II is stated that the mean extreme
range of the Metford bullet may be
taken at about $500 yards. although, with
a strong wind. 3. 700 yards have been OBJ
served. This bullets find their way through
joints of walls. unless the walls are made
very fine and set in cement. About $50

less protection than loose. When fired
into sand the bullet is found to be always
turned aside after it has entered a little
way.

ANOTHER REGIMENT IN SIGHT.
Montana's Quota Is small, but Volunteers
viii swell the Amount.

VIII Swell the mount.
The second call of the president for
5000 volunteers was announced yester-
day, and the action of congress will have
the effect of increasing the nations pa
triotism to the extent of raising an
army which will exceed i'm numbers the
amount required. Montana's apportion-
ment of the 5000 is 314. Already the
volunteers enlisted In the several cities
number more than that, and when word
Is spread that the president calls for
more men the lists will swell beyond
the quota by many hundreds. Ii is
more a probable that another regl-
ment will be organized in thiss state.
Anaconda has three companies in
course of organization. one OF which Is
cavalry. Yesterday five more men en-
rolled their names on Captain Murphys
list and Captain Causer of the cavalry
troop has q men on his list.
There Is be a meeting at s o'clock to-
night of the cavalry in the vacant room
adjoining Modini's cafe. About half "A
dozen men from the foundry and as
many more from the refinery have sig
niied their desire to join the troop, and
IL is thought that the captain will soon
have a full list.
Senator Mantle is persistently endeav-
oring to have the authorities in Wash
ington recognize Montana once more for
"A battalion of cavalry. N now that an
other call is made il Is very likely that
he will be successful. If so, the BoZe-
man boys will no doubt be among the
first to be mustered into service; then
Captain Causer's troop and others as
they offer their services.
