| chairman will be very glad to receive
| suggestions as to names to go upon this
| committee, as it is desired to make 1t
| large and thoroughly representative. A
| special badge will be made for this
| committee. 1t will be printed on red
| ribbon, with silver lettering. with the
| flag at the top and the gold fringe at
| the bottom, the same as the souvenir
| badges. The badge of the special re-
| ception committee to meet the Volun-
| teers en- route will be on blue ribbon,
with bronze lettering, together with the
| flag at the top and the gold fringe at
| the bottom. Governor Richards, chair
| man of this latter committee. will have
| charge of the badges and all who in
! tend to meet the volunteers should see
| the chairman about their badges.
The ladies' committees will be fur
| nished with badges printed on white
| satin ribbon, with the flag at the top.
Anyone outside of Butte desiring the
| souvenir badges should send in their
orders at once by wire and they will
be forwarded.
1t is hoped that the ladies of Walk
erville will turn out and give all the as
sistance they can to Mrs. Broughton in
her work on behalf of the committee.
Chairman Mantle has perfected the
arrangements with the railroads for
bringing the rough riders here on the
cent a mile rate. 1t will be necessary
for the members of the several troops
at Miles City, Billings, Mssoula and
other points to present their discharge
from the regiment to the railroad
agent, or if they have not their dis
charge, then to present a letter from
the captain of their troop certifying
that they were members of the regi-
ment. The agent will then furnish them
with transportation to Butte and re-
turn, reporting same to the chairman
of the reception committee. The cap
tains of the several troops forming the
Montana squadron have been notified
of this arrangement and it is hoped
that all the members of the rough rid
ers who possibly can will avail them
selves of this offer and be here to join
in the demonstration and receive their
medals of honor.
1t is definitely settled that the volun-
teers are to arrive on Monday. the 2sd
instant. They will arrive in Butte at
$3.50 a. m. They will stop at Dillon for
breakfast about 6 o'clock a. m. where
they will be met by the special recep-
ton committee who will escort them
here The run from Dillon will be
made in two hours and a half.
Captain Treloar is arranging the
musical programme. On the arrival Of
the trains bearing the volunteers at
Butte the combined bands will play
Aud Lang syne,' which will be
the boys disembark. At least 200 in
struments will join in these airs.
There are now about 1000 badges out
among the ladies being made up and
sold, but there are still more to be
made up. Every lady who is making
badges should bear in mind that the
badges are for sale and should miss no
opportunity to dispose of them. The
committee would rather receive back
the dollars than the badges.
In dispOsing of the badges the motto
of the ladies should be: Let no man
escape" After next Monday morning
the universal Interrogation should be:
Have you a badge?'
