VICTORIA, March 20? Although it
uaj beeu suggested and was general
ly believed to be the l'?*:t, that the
tlriush Columbia and Alaska Railway
company, failing to secure the time
extension, and approval of rou?e
, hanges, asked of the legislature this
:?0Si4ou, would abandon their chark>r
of 1910, such, is very far from the in
tention, is the statement made with
omphaiiis by the new officers of the I
^rporation, in Question.
The original promoter of this com :
i any at the time the charter was so J
. oruii and its president, up to a few j
mouths ago, was Jean Woukensteia, a
A a i street stock brokgr. who had vi.t
ited Victoria in connection, with tho |
project cm several occasions. He re
cently disposed of his interests anti
.ilso of the interests of the Wall street
?vup associated with him, to Messrs.
o. C. Harris, of New York; George
A. Kyle, of Portland, and former Ma
jor Kalph .Sruailes of Greenwood, uow
u member of the railway contracting
iTui of .Messrs. L. M* Rice & Com
pany, of Seattle, which firm is at
present engaged in the building cf
the Kettle River Valley line. By the
ttrms of the charter the company has
until autumn of the present year in
which to expend 10 per cent of Its
capitalization, and instead of aban
doning the special charter under '
which it is now authorized to oper
ate. Messrs. Harris & Smailes an-i
nounce that they will begin work in
he spring and qualify for the reten
tion of the charter by the construct
ion expenditure demanded. Opera
tions will probably be inaugurated be
fore the close of March, forces be
ing put on both at Vancouver and
at Fort George, the Terminal City or
Lytton being alternative western ter
minals according to the terms of the
charter at Fort George the northern
and eastern terminal.
By a revision of the company's
plans, the projectei line beyond Forf
George has been swung to the right
lbout to seek a connection at the
Albertan boundary and to develop
coal, mineral and timber territory in
Northern Cariboo. With the Ameri
can promoters of the new line it is
understood that well known British
Columbia capitalists of this city and
Vancouver have recently identified
themselves, announcing a fixed in
tention to carry to completion the
ambitious undertaking.

Ben Atwater, who came over the
Chilcoot August 29, 1SSG, boun.l for
tlie Fortymile, has met with a serious
accident, and is now at the Takotna
post, in a helpless condition.
Ou. September IT last "Uncle Ben,"
as he is familiarly called, accident
ally shot himself with a double-barrel
ed shot-gun. The charge parsed thru''
the palm of his right hand, shatter
ing the fingers, and lodged in tha
left forearm. The wounds were
dressed by Dr. Green, commissioner
at Takotna, who has done all that
medical skill could do for the un
fortunate man, but the injuries re
ceived were so severe that Atwater
is absolutely dependent upon others
for every serv ice.
Unfortunately Atwater has no re
sources, and he has been compelled
to depend upon the kindness of
friends until arrangements can be
made to send him outside by the ftrst
boat.
Mr. Atwater bears an excel!? nt rep
utation among those that know him.
He was one of the founders of the
Order of Pioneers, and is a Free

possible to send him out to Boise,
Idaho, where he has sons and a
daughter who could look after him.

"Thnnk yon, Aguirre. but I hardly
think I want to set? one of your bull
fights. I have heard enough about
them to make me sick of the thought"
I had seen every other kind of light,
from messenger bo.\s op to hull moose
| and buffalo, and Aguirre felt that I
would forever regret It If | loft Mexico
without at least onre witnessing the
national sport.
J reluctantly con^onicd to urcompftny
blm, and after our dinner, insie.id of
taking the usual si ? u r-e went to
the ring. I had tfJe;i r. -J . I* , torle*
of such fights. nr.i a'-, t ... .. r>s ?f
three had been flnl^ied ' v .1 id-red if
nny writer had ev?>t t : c ,. ir?,, , r
to describe the ridicnl. r and funnv
stunts that ? r??|> out ?iur.i-s th.' course
of the fights.
1 he first bull that was nve.;sod went
through the ordinary course of sprouts,
first goring a broken down race horse
which had seen service on many of the
tracks in the States and was used in
the bull ring only because he was a
thoroughbred. Finally the bail was
put to death by a stab between the
shoulders, which paralyzed his spine.
The second eniruut was a little black
fellow full of lire, which had been I
especially raised oti the big ranch of
Governor Tlrazzos Between the torll
(pern and the rinc thert* was a short
alley, just wide enough to allow the j
bulls to get through without nibbing
the hair from their flanks leaning
over the hoards which formed the
sides of the passageway was a Mexi
can negro, who. w?ien the little bull
was shoved out of the torll. Jabbed a
fishhook "barbo" Into his left shoul '
der, which madden*) the animal to I
such au extent that he hardly knew j
which way to turn. <o eager was lie to
locate his enemy.
The crowd at this time was going
mad and from oil sides could be heard
frantic cries of "Cobardo. podrido
putrefaccion" (coward, rotten, rotten
ness>. and "EI toro <w i.merto" (the bull
is deadi On the contrary, lie was
very much alive and showed It a few
moments later After he was chased
into the toril the torero, whose name
was Albertis. ap|>enred before the
president's box, as Is the custom when
n failure is made, to explain himself 1
and ask for another chance before he J
was condemned The opj>orinnlty wns
given, nnd the result was only a repe
tition of the former attempt, except j
that the bull was prevented from |
notching him by betters who were arm- |
ed with long pikes and prevented the J
beast from scaling the fence.
Springing ten or a dozen yards I
toward the center of the ring, the
frenzied creature stopped short, spread
his front feet out us far as he could (
and madly pawed the ground. In his j
shoulder the wicked barb still stuck. |
and to It were fastened a big yellow j
rosette and a half dozen red stream- I
ers trailing the ground
Presently a volnntwr novice torero I
?bullfighter on footi jumped over the
feuce on the north side of the ring and
advanced a few feet toward the defiant
bull One flaunt of the torero's red
bandera (banner) and the bull lierame J
a demon. With head down he rushed 1
at the novice, who meanwhile had
lost his nerve, fair he stood quaking
with fear when he should have been
advancing to meet the onrushing anl
mal. V\ hen the latter was only twenty
yards away the volunteer dropped the j
bandera and espada iswordi aud put
for the fence as fast as lie could go.
The fence wns about four feet high,
and ttie torero cleared It In a straight
way dive.
1 he poor bull wns not so fortunate,
although ne was gntue enough to at
tempt the fence in his mad effort to
catch Ids tormentor lie landed on
top of the boards and stuck 'Mbere, J
with his hind legs in the air. until
he was released by some attendants J
who ventured from the other side of
the ring
I took n heap of fin out of the antics
of my little hero, the bull, and was
having a good laugh all to myself while
the mob was going wild with disgust
at the cowardice of Albertis when
Aguirre advised me to suppress my
mirth or there would be trouble for
both of us.
When order wns restored the little
black bunch of muscle, brawn and grit
was brought Into the inclosure for the
third time, but it took the efforts of
two toreadors (bullfighters on horse
back) and a professional foot fighter to
beat him. and his defeat was then due
only to the fact that he was exhausted.
Aguirre told me that It was bad
form In Mexico to laugh at anything
, la a bullfight but the death of the bull,
but I remarked to him that In all
America he would not find a gringo
who would not instantly grasp the
funny side of that particular bullfight
and carry it home so that others might
! laugh too ?Denver Republican
