thongs and both men and posts landed
on the outskirts of the crowd.
Personally, Brown was not formidable.
With five feet eight inches of height and
smooth, boyish countenance, he was not
a dangerous looking man. But those who
had seen him glance down the barrel OF
a 45-Colt without so much as moving an
eyelid knew him as absolutely fearless.
Brown, while he associated with the bet
ter class of Americans on the Rand, was
on speaking terms with the rough element
and he utilized these to form flying
wedge, which at that time had just been
developed by the American football play
ers.
To get all these men under one flag he
hired the seven most desperate characters
on the Rand-Alec Love, Jim and Jack
Maloney. Nanny Garchel, "Butch" VIII
son. Jack Hidebrandt and Danger.
They were men who would fight at the
drop of a hat, and cut your throat and
take chances on escaping punishment.
Love. who is now serving sentence Tor
highway robbery. was good looking
man, well educated and quite gentlemanly
when sober. He had received a college
training in the States He wore red hair
and a red mustache, was very handsome
and massiveiy built.
Brown selected him for his captain, and
gave him carte blanche financially. Each
ringleader brought his particular friends,
and Brown promised them s25 day and
good bonus If they pushed him through.
When this regiment Of toughs made It's
first appearance in the little town. of
Klerksdorp, the citizens fed for their
lives.
When this company reached the camp
many firms, Immediately made overtures
to the men and tried to win them over
with drink and money, A number of
Americans started for John Hays Ham
mond's camp, but Alec Love stood IN
front with a drawn revolver and threat
ened to shoot the first man who left.
Brown found that the only way to hold

1t was estimated that on the day OF the
opening 1000 men occupied the camp, In
addition to many Beers who came from
all parts of the Transvaal to witness the
scene.
John Hays Hammond was then con-
sulting engineer for the Consolidated Gold
Fields Company, and he assumed olrec-
ton over nearly one thousand men, VINO
were expected to tear hole r1ght
through the mass and smash everything.
The whole camp was armed to the teetn'
Every man carried at least one revolver
and expected to use 1t, for 1t was ngnt
for big stakes, and each company prom
ised protection to its men. There was
practically no danger of arrest however,
for the Zarps, or .Boer policemen, trem-
bled with fear at that armed mob.
The plans of each company to effect
the coup were much the same. Barney
Barnato, J. B. Robinson Belt, the Joels
and every one interested in gold mining
in Johannesburg, great or small, took a
vital interest in the struggle, and put
forth every effort to gain the prize. Each
company hoped to push their man up
to the window first, purchase the license.
hand 1t to an armed rider and hurry 1t
off to the farm, where the engineers and
peggers were waiting to jump in and
stake off the richest claims.
Six firms even went SO far as to sink
strong wooden posts just by the window
and to these lashed men with ropes, so
that they could not be pulled away and
passed back over the crowd. But these
precautions availed nothing, for when the
struggle began sharp knives severed the

window a face covered with blood,

Now give me my license, or I'll sue the
Government for G1, 900. .000."
A sudden pitch of the mob nearly
pushed the plucky fellow through the
window and shattered his shoulder
blade, but he waited to hear the re-
fusal and have 1t witnessed. and then al
lowed himself to be passed out on. the
veIdt.
Out Of the thousands there he was the
only one who had the foresight to do this,
and though 1t took a long time he finally
received his indemnity. This amount has
been kept secret, but it is variously estl-
mated by the johannesburg papers be-
tween $4,000 and G75, 900.
During the entire time that the suit
was being tried, and it passed through
a number of courts, the flying wedge
hovered about Brown, many of them
not doing a stroke of work, all existing
on the hope of receiving their share of
the award, but as Brown left Johannes
burg before it was granted these choice
spirits were doomed to disappointment.

waited for the sign that Indian Jake
had promised to give up when the trou-
bic had subsided. He never failed in
any of his promises, and often Travelled
thirty miles to tell the boys that they
were shadowed.
THE narrowing details of my last
week in Indian Territory are forever
surging through my brain. We were
camping at a robbers rest cottage, pre-
paratory to moving into Mexico. Mr..
Dalton had come home sick. after
two months absence. The other boys
had gone off hunting for teams and
wagons to haul our provisions to this
new home. I was commissioned to go
to Ardmore, the nearest settlement, to
buy provisions for this long journey.
Our men never ventured near set
tlement. I expected to be gone two
days and was accompanied by one OF
the women and young fellow who had
been at the house for several months.
He had always seemed a little envious
of Mr.. Dalton, who was the leader OF
this band, but further than that no one
paid any attention to his disposition.
and they generally thought him a good
fellow.
upon this all-eventful morning, as
was about to start for Ardmore, ]
turned to bid my husband good-by'
and suddenly had the strange convic>
tion that. we would never meet again.
A fearful foreboding took possession of
me-. 1t was unlike anything that ever
felt before.
He saw the look of terror in my face
and with tenderness that was ever
his nature tried to quiet my nervous
fears. When We drove away from the
house was smiling through my tears,
but had a heavy, heavy heart.
MY feeling Of gloom soon developed
into suspicion as we rode along, and I
found myself staring at the driver in
most singular manner. Was l going
mad? Had my anxieties and the hard
ships of the past year affected my mind

and entered into the conversation, only
to fall back into this sullen revery.
Throughout this Journey my eyes were
riveted upon that man, and felt intu-
