As Bucks Play Poker
Desert Section Hand Boss Returns
to Find Pluto Women Doing
Construction Work.

SAN FRANCISCO, July 19.-Piute
Indians as substitutes for Mexican
section hands were tried out in the
Nevada desert last week The Next
cans were deemed unsatisfactory be-
cause they would drop their tools and
rest the instant the boss" got far
enough away so that he could not hit
them with a shovel handle.
With the Indians on the job. how
ever, the work went along just the
same, boss or no boss.
Nevertheless the Mexicans are
again on the pay roll and the Indians
are taking their traditional ease.
After glowingly watching five days
of splendid work by his Piute b, cks
the section boss left them the other
DAY. Returning "a hours later he
found the suffragette members of the
Piute tribe doing the work on the
railroad, while the bucks were gath
cred in a poker game at one side of
the track.
