A Hoodooed Station
(By Franz Huber)

! ~ HE prettily situated station Of
AIitterwaId, might easily have
= been a paradise to a young rail-
roadman who had just been promoted
to the position Of station master there,
of it had not been hOOdooed from the
very day it was opened.
The first passenger who got out Of
the train there opened the door OF his
: compartment too early and fell down
underneath the wheels which crushed
! his legs.
Later on a young man who was sell
ing tickets did not sell these as they
were numbered, but picked them out
from the bottom Of the neat little piles
and thus was enabled to put quite a
snug amount Of money into his own
pocket, until he was found out and dis
charged.
Near MitterwaId station also lived
railroad StOTekeeper who was SO eager
in his work that he worked also nights
and robbed the locked freight cars un-
til one day he was nabbed by the rail-
road detective DOrner who had been
smart enough to lock himself up in one
of the locked cars billed to Mitter-
valid
All these incidents ruined the reputa-
ton of the little station until nobody
wanted to live in the pretty rooms built
for the station master. To put an END
to this the manager Of the road made
Michael Sachmann, a man known for
his sterling character and honesty, sta
tiOnmaSter at MltterWald.
He was permitted to choose his own
assistant and his choice fell upon Karl
Himmel young man of 10, whom he
had known since he was a child
For four months these two worked
together and nothing happened, until
one morning Himmel had just been re-
IeVed by his superior. Sachmann- A de-
layed passenger train was expected
and as a freight was due from Nle Op-
pOsite direction, Sachmann, who was
making up the account Of the station
had to hurry out to attend to the sig
nal and send off the trains.
Just at this moment Himmel re-
turned to the office where he had for
gotten a book. He picked n Up on the
telegraph table and suddenly stopped
The statiOnmaster had left the cash
box open. The young man fought
hard struggle with himself to over
come the temptation, but he had just
lost a whole months wages gamb-
ling, and his evil instincts conquered.
After glancing cautiously around and
seeing that Sachmann was busy out
side he picked up one hundred
marks bill and ran out without having
been seen.
Sachmann returned to the office,
sent a telegraph message to the next
station and again sat down at his
desk without the least suspicion Of
what had happened.
He had just started to make out
his cash report for the general Of
flee when a man who had arrived on
the passenger train and whom he had
taken to be an ordinary passenger {
came in.
The man greeted him in a friendly
manner and introduced himself; My
name is Franz Wiegand from the gen
eral auditors office. 1 have come to
audit your books"
Sachmann willingly turned books,
bills Of lading and cash over to him.

GOOD MUSIC AND COMEDY
IN NTHE HEARTBREAKERs

GOOD MUSIC AND COMEDY
IN STHE NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. 50
Recipe-Talle a clever travesty on
the plot Of Romeo and Juliet, warm
over a rapid fire Of wholesome COM
edy, stir in melange Of snappy tOpi-
cal songs with a frOth of bright, new
costumes. Serve hot with a lettuce
leaf of laughter on the side.
This is the "Heartbreakers" as
played by Mort Singers company,
headed by George Damerel as the
head heartbreaker at the Ell PasO
Sunday evening. If plot, music, clean
comedy and original business" make
a musical comedy the "Heartbreak-

for Os-Aple week to have the Heart
breakers here. It brings back re-
minders of the Wizard of o. and the
Red Mill of the days before the de-
cline of musical comedy.
THE Heartbreakers" was the pleas

prettiest bit in the piece and Miss
Wallis song numbers were equally eff

A chimney sweep is not the Fat
test" part in any play and q chimney
sweep in evening clothes sounds as
funny as a funeral But Edward
Hume, as the comedy chimney clean
er, got every laugh there was in the
book and many of his own. Without
resorting TO the least trace of rough
stuff Hume kept everyone laughing
from overture to finale. He was
funny looking, his eccentric acting
was funny and his lines gave him a
chance to create a bit of original
comic character sketching which
chance he took and made a winning
with it in every scene. The father
who resembled Alfred Henry Lewis
and the emotional husband of Mrs.
Newlywed added their bit to the even
ing of laughter.
The ''Heartbreakers" is well staged
cleverly cOstumed and has none Of

MIN Sachmann went up to the desk.
You must have forgotten to make

Impossible said sachmann with a
smile.

ditor,'" try if you can find any mis-

Sachmann sat down and went over
the accounts very carefully while the
auditor buried himself in a newspaper.
For a whole hour he worked without
finding any mistake.

Sachmann stood for a moment as f

his head and left the office.
Eight years later the people Of Nit
