RAILROAD BUSINESS IS
INCREASING

Railroad business has been better dur
ing the past week than at any time since
the memorable rush of last summer and
fall. Everybody has been working, and
in addition to the regular force quite a
number OF additional train crews have
been set up.
The rush of business has been caused
largely by the tic-up on the Northern
Pacific, which has resulted in consider.
able business from that road being
transferred to the Great Northern. Tho
yards here have been full of cars during
the week, and trains have come an6
gone in quick succession.
Two dead engines which were bein,
sent to st. Paul from the coast wer'
headed off at Cut Bank and pressed int
service to increase the available motive
power on this division.

RAILROAD NEWS
Montana SQUIRRELS.

Engineer ]. D. Perdne was among the
crowd stalled at Cut Bank last week, and
according to the story which is being
told he put in his time very profitably.
According to the story, a number OF
ladies on the delayed trains asked Mr..
Perdue if there were any squirrels in
Montana. He informed them that this
state produced distinct species of the
squirrel family, and as the ladies were
then anxious to buy some of the animals
to take home with them, the engineer
volunteered to procure as many squirrels
as they wished.
Procuring string, Mr.. Perdue sailed
forth. He wandered out on to the prairie,
where the gophcrs were plentiful, and
making moose in the string he placed it
over hole and awaited the coming Of the
gopher. He soon had one of the animals
and the operation was then repeated un
til several OF the gophers were captured
Az the train he found ready sale for the
rodents at remunerative price, and so l
disposed of his stock. Then he went after
more gophers. No one seems to know jus
what the total financial returns were, bu
| the opinion seems to be that the protit
were quite large.
