READY TO ENLIST.


Active Service.
The war department at Washington
is preparing to meet any emergency "
demands that may be made on it on a.
count of change in the condition 81
affairs in the Philippines, and it is pos
sible that the Eutte rpue h riders and
volunteer infantrymen who were dspriK
ed of an opportunity to go to Cuisa,
may yet have a chance to go to battle.
The war department is making inquir-
les about recognizing the rough
riders, and Captain D'tisy Stivers Of
troop L, third volunteer cavalry, under
Colonel Melvin Grigsby has received q
telegram direct from the department at
Washington asking him as to what
number of the original troop was avail-
able for immed: late service, and whether
a sufficient nu nber of new enlis .ments
could be secu red here to fill up the
troop. Captain Stivers replied that
about 40 of the original troopers were
ready to re-enlist, and that the troop
could be filled and be ready for duty
on a days notice, provided they were
wanted for active service. He added
that for garrison duty, however, not
five men in Butte would enlist.
The fact that the query came to
Captain Stivers direct from the war
department at Washington. instead of
coming through the usual roundabout
way and through the herds of depart
ments, indicates the urgency Of the mat
ter. It is evident that the Philippine
situation Is the cause Of the query and
the boys Of troop l. would not be sur
prised to receive notice at any mo-
ment to re-orgalize and be ready to
respond to call to 6tuty. If given any
assurance that they would be sent to
the Philippines, and had reasonable
expectation of seeing; service, the troop
could no doubt be filled in day, but
it Is doubtful If, in view of the ex-
periences Of the riders and other SOL
diers in the southern camps, a dozen
men in Butte would volunteer if they
thought they were to be corralled in
some camp again.
Captain stivers' original troop had
a membership Of 81.

THREATENED WITH DEATH

There are many men in Butte who
took part in the great Occur d'Alene
strike a few years ago and became ac-
quainted during those stirring times
with +. L. Brown, a newspaper man.
known as BARBARA m from the fact
that he conducted a rabid paper of that
name there. After the settlement Of
the strike Barbarian" Brown went to
South Africa, where he has been in
volved in other sensational occurrences.
His friends and acquaintances will be
interested in the following thrilling
story from johannesburg regarding linn
which recently appeared in the New
York Sun:
Barbarian Brown, otherwise r. e
Brown, an American, has just received
an award of damages amounting to
nearly G60,G00 from the Transvaal gov
eminent. 1t is the sequel of the widest
sold-farm rush of South Africa. in
which Brown pursued the tactics of the
football field and had himself driven
through an immense mob Of lawless
rushefs by a flying wedge of 300 armed
men. 1t was an exploit of a football
captain and frontier American.
baIbdfldn Brown came to South
Africa with a reputation for nerve,
gained in the famous Occur d'Alene
strikes. where he took the part of the
mine owners and never receded from
his stand, though daily threatened with
death. He even edited a paper enun-
ciating his opinions, called the Bar
balian. This furnished the sohriquet
which chung to him when he reached
Johannesburg.
Once here Brown secured a place
with one of the most important mining
companies on the Rand. He was an cX-
pert consulting engineer and soon made
himself valuable to the company by
gobblins up the very richest claims on
the C1urchison range. 1t was as their
representative also that Brown planned
and carried out the mighty football

AMONG RAILROAD MEN
Snow Blockade on Colorado
Lines Is Lifted.
AGAIN RUNNING ON TIME
The Recent Cold Wave the Most Severe
in the Last Twenty Years-Passen-
ger Agents to Meet In Denver
to Form an Association

W. c. Mcbride, general agent of the
Rio Grande Western, yesterday receiv-
ed telegram from General Passenger
Agent Wadleigh informing him that the
snow blockade on the Midland & Dem
yer & Rio Grande had been remov-
ed and that all trains on the Western
were again running on time and max
ing through eastern connections. The
blockade had existed since last Friday,
and traffic on the Colorado lines had
been entirely suspended.
Mr.. Mcbride returned yesterday
morning from trip to Boise where he
met several Of the oldest inhabitants"
who told him that the recent cold spell
was the severest known in that part of
the country in 20 years. The thermon-.
eter at Boise registered degrees be-
low zero, which, Mr.. Mcbride declares,
is much colder than 40 below in Butte.
A meeting Of passenger agents will
be held in Denver Tomorrow to con-
slider the advisahility OF organizing an
association for all lines west OF the
Missouri river. 1t is generally under
stood that such action will be consider
ed expedient and that the association
will be organized then and there. The
Union Pacific is believed to be at the
head of the new plan, as Mr.. Lomax
recently declared that his road would
have nothing to do with the eastern as
ISOLATION, that the Union Pacific is a
western road, working for the west,
and has no business with the far east.
The directors of the Northern Pacific
are holding their monthly meeting in
New York. 1t is reported that the COM
pany intends to increase the dividend
on common stock this month, and that
this stock will be placed permanently
on better than a 2 per cent. basis. In
connection with this report Is another
that the Northern Pacific intends to
make some large land sales.
Northern Pacific continues to show re-
markable increases in earnings and the
low ratio of operating cost to gross
earnings that attracted wide attention
when the last annual report was issued.
In certain quarters the statements are
still severely criticised, but not by people
familiar with the physical condition
and actual operation Of the property.
A Great Northern official said to St.
Paul Pioneer Press reporter that the in
situation that the Northern Pacific
| had begun to feel the strain of cheap
operation for large net results was
mean and upwarranted. Northern Pa
| cific officials say they have experienced
| no strain and can continue to maintain
| the standard they have esta blished.
Reports and evidences of widespread
and cumulative prosperity in the West

monthly statements have strengthened

nearly cost him his life, for bullets
rained in the shanty from all sides and
the mob pushed harder than ever and
Brown was on the point OF giving up
his position when one CT those happy
inspirations which occur to men OF
quick thought and action urged him to
demand a license.
Here l am" he yelled at the fright
ened commissioner, sticking through
the window a face covered with blood.
Here's my good, hard-earnedd money.
Now give me a license or I'll sue the
government for G1,OOo.00O.
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 refu-
sal and have it witnessed, and then al
lowed himself to be passed out on the
veldt.
Out of the thousands there ne was the
only one who had the foresight to do
this. and though it took a long time
he finally received his indemnity. This
amount has been kept secret, but 1T Is
variously estimated by the Johannes
burg papers between c5O,000 and E76,-
900.
During the entire time the suit was
being tried, and it passed through a
number of COURTS the flying wedge how

doing stroke of work. all existing on
the hope of receiving their share of the
reward, but as Brown left Johannes
burg before it was granted these choice
spirits were doomed to disappointment.

NOR credits both companies with such

the Burlington have a firm hold there
and have spent millions of dollars get
ting it without yet receiving adequate
returns in revenue. 1t is certain that
the Northwestern would not extend

The map of South Dakota shows a
peculiar railroad condition in the alb
sence of any line west of the Missouri
river. 1t Is only possible to reach the
Black Hills from this territory by COW
ering an immense angle, the converging
point of which is Omaha or Sioux City,
or else by travelling across half of South
Dakota on a stage. Yet the Black Hills
