Horace Malvern bowed awkwardly be
fore Marian Hastings.
The dear, old well-remembered
voice said cordially with that tender,
underlying cadence:
'Mr Malvern and have met be-
FORE, and he saw the old smile

explained to Tom, who nodded.

which dwelt in his memory.
Tom was delighted, and frequently
interrupted his wife to add his own
words of welcome, so that Horace
would have been dull indeed If he had
not realized that his coming was a
pleasure to both.
AS they bowled along he stole a
glance now and then at the beautiful
face beside him, for Tom was in front.
It was more lovely, but in the round

MEANS SHAEEUP
American Express Co.'S Increased
Business Involves Changes.
BIGGER FORCE FOR OMAHA
ReorERniEed Concern win Employ
Many More Men Here-May Come
bine with Pacific I'm
Joint offices.

A general shake-up in the office and
traffic forces OF the Pacific Express COM
paGg and an entire reorganization OF the
staff OF the American Express company
in the western division is predicted as a
result OF the transfer OF the business on
the Union Pacific railroad from one eX-
press company to the other.
The formal transfer. OF business will
take place April /. as announced by Vice
President L. w. Fargo, Of the American
concern. @. c. Taylor, general manager
Of the newly-created western division of
the company, is in Omaha on business,
but will establish his offices at salt Lake
City.
w hardly know just what the situation
is, said Mt. Taylor. Two months will
Intervene before our company takes over
the business Of the Pacific Express, and
we are not ready to announce any plans.
Our ne~wly-acquired territory will embrace
in the neighborhood OF 1000 offices, which
will naturally mean a much larger busl-
ness for us"
Talk is that the American Express com
pany will have to greatly increase its
working staff in Omaha by reason of the
transfer Although the Pacific Will CON
tinue to operate express cars on the Wa
bash and Missouri Pacific. the Union Pa
cific will take away 40 per cent Of that
trade. 'a
This will mean that the force Of the Pa
ciflc Express ompan win be cut and
additions made to the staff of the Amer
lean. There are about forty clerks EN-
ployed in the Pacific Express oompany's
offices at present. In addition to naming
more clerks II is also stated on good au-
thority that a division superintendent will
be appointed for the American in Omaha.
Railroad men figure that the American
will control the express business of between
5000 and 1000 miles OF track between the
Missouri river and the Pacific coast, This
will mean that upwards OF 800 or 100 mes
sengers, clerks and express agents over
the lines OF the Union Pacific will be put
on the payroll of the American Express.
Most of these, II not all, will simply be
transferred from the Pacific company to
the American and will be, literally, a part
of the business deal. Va
There is also ak that the American
Express agency in Omaha will be obliged
to seek larger quarters before long, owing
to the increase In business and the larger
number Of clerks. 1t is also limited that
the two companies may maintain joint Of
fices in Omaha. II this merger takeH place
it is probable the Joint offices would be
maintained In the Pacific Express COM
pany's building at Harvey and Fourteenth
streets. -,,,.
