ming, deputy sheriff of Converse coun-
ty, and posse left Lusk on Wednesday
with warrants for the arrest of the In

creek Thursday morning. After read
ing the warrants. the Indians refused
to go with the sheriff, and drew a line
and told him if he crossed the line
there would be war, and backed it up
with their Winchesters.
Being outnumbered, the sheriff vent

Deputy Sheriff George Miller of Edge

o. R. & N. May Connect With Bur-
liEgtOn IN Idaho.
CONTRACT FOR Is MILES
ROAD To BUILD INTO LEWIS
TON, IDA, AT ONCE.
Burlington May Build West From
Montana and Connect-R. G. w.
Secures Contract-Ticket Scalpers
Regulated-Working Hours In
creased-To Cook Train Robbers.

The Oregon Railway & Navigation
horns in earnest in the effort TO cap
ture the business of the famous Clear
water country in. Idaho. Recently a
contract was let by the Oregon Railway
& Navigation company for the con-
struction of a line from Riparia, Wash,
to Lewiston, Ida, a distance of seventy
eight miles. The Anaconda Standard
sees in this move the possibility of an
other transcontinental line, the Oregon
Railway K Navigation extending on to
the Bitter Root and the Burlington
building west through Montana to
meet them. The Standard says:
"Theress a pretty well defined rumor
that when the Oregon Railway & Navi-
cation company strikes the Clearwater
valley it will not stop there. but will
proceed on up 10 the summit of the
Bitter Root, and there make a connec-
ton with the Burlington, which it is
expected will build west through Mon
tana. In many ways the interests of
the Burlington and those of the Oregon
Railway & Navigation are identical.
With connection such as proposed the
Burlington would have the advantages
of the transcontinental road and the
Oregon Railway & Navigation, while
having the advantages of the large To-
cal traffic, would have in the Burliug-
ton a large source of new revenue. 1t
would be an arrangement especially
favorable to both roads. In fact, the
two companies are logical partners.
I'm many quarters it is firmly be-
lieved the roads will make the connec-
ton. The Burlington has had many
engineering companies at work
throughout the west, and is in a posi-
ton TO start operations quickly"

TO COOK TRAIN ROBBERS.
Novel Plan Adopted By the Denver &
Rio Grande.


The Denver News, speaking of new
innovation on the new Denver & Rio
Grande engines, says:
"The new locomotives on the Rio
Grande have a hold-up cooker and the
first man with a mask over his face
who attempts TO induce the engineer
to stop the train will be fit to serve on
a cannibars breakfast table within
about one minute, for a horrible death
awaits him. Without being perceived
either the engineer or fireman can turn
on jet of steam and boiling water at
200 pounds pressure that will cook any
thing exposed back of the cab and
along the sides or top of the first car
The appliance is an inch and a half
pipe that connects with the boiler on
the fireman's side of the engine and
bends out through the top of the cab,
pointing backward toward the place
where hold-upS usually come from
Two valves can be turned as quick as
thought and send a Niagara of steam
and water at about $50 degrees tenn
perature that will cook anything it
comes in contact with. A valve worked
from the engineers side is actuated by
air. just like the air brakes, and is
connected with the same service reser-
voir. In stopping the train the engi-
neer can, without moving a finger, sud-
denly spread death behind him and at
the same time attend to the man be-
hind the gun. If necessary. he can
empty every drop of water from the
boiler and thoroughly kill the engine
so that orders to pull ahead to that
bridge cannot be obeyed. At any rate.
the train crew will find only one robber
to battle with after the little steam jet
begins TO transact business and the
rest will be fit for canning"

citing scenes are anticipated, owing to
the attitude of the premier. w. P.

a large number of the opposition mem
berS favor his impeachment.
In the meantime, the Afrikander
party is working up a pro-Boer agita-
ton and doing its utmost in this direc-
ton. An attempt to hold a loyalist
meeting at Worcester this evening was
frustrated by the Afrikanders, who
precipitated disgraceful scenes, forcibly
dragging the loyalist speakers from
the platform and eXpelling them from
the hall amid jeers and insults. 1t is
reported that several Dutch members
of the legislature participated.
The publication of the text of the
Transvaal franchise law now being de-
bated at Pretoria has accumulated the
bitterness between the two elements.
The military authorities here are pur-
chasing horses, mules and wagons and
preparing to forward supplies to Kim

The order of Elks is diffused through
out the whole country. 1t originated in
New York City in 1867, its founder be-
ing Charles A. Vivian, a ballad singer.
1t was first restricted to members of
the theatrical profession and to sing
ers. In the beginning it had only
thirteen members. Its scope, however,
soon broadened, and it admitted other
persons besides those to whom it was at
first confined. A social organization at
the outset, it developed into a benevo-
lent order having lodges in every state,
and having on its rolls representatives
of all the professions. First calling it,
self the Jolly Corks,'' it then adpoted
the name Benevolent and Protective
Order of Elks. 1t is one of the most
popular of all the fraternal orders of

George Sharp, Rough Rider, Re
turns to Salt Lake.

George Cutler Sharp, of the Smith
Drug Co., reached home Wednesday
evening from the Cuban tropics. He
left with Torrey's rough riders, but
when mustered out, still thirsting for
Spanish gore. the Denial George en-
listed in another regiment, and in time
was shipped across the sea from
Tampa. But George only did garrison
duty-that's all that was required of
the party of fine men, and as he quite
forgot his appetite, anyway, he re-
turns and terms the trip a jolly holiday.
He was at Camp Columbia, favorite
resting place for General Lee, and saw
many sights.
Mr.. Sharp will go into his former
position with the drug company.
On his return he found that four suits
of clothes, shirts and collars and sole
leather sample case had been ex-
tracted from a trunk he stored in a
barn on East First South during his
absence. The barn has been kept
under lock and key, and the trunk
was locked and covered in burlap Sc
curely sewed. 1t was found the same
way yesterday, but the clothes and
other articles are missing.
