Boys Are Displaced as Telegraph Mes.
sengers in One Office and Expert
ment Proves Successful.

"Did you ever see anything like II
In all your life?" Manager Fowler OF
the Western Union Telegraph office at
New Brunswick, y. j.. asked referring
to one of his messenger girls, referring
ing 10 the New York Herald. She was
turning the corner on the run with a
telegram in her hand which She was
on her way to deliver.
She was Annie Ford, pioneer OF the
messenger girl service of America. She
was smiling and the expression on her
face seemed 20 say "This is the life"
The girl fairly radiated with happi-
ness.
Miss Ford has had the place only a
few weeks. Just after she began duty
Violet Gallagher, 1916 graduate OF
the New Brunswick high school, joined
the Western Union forces. Both girls
took to the work like ducks take to
water
The girls went into the messenger
service because New Brunswick boys
who heretofore had been available for
messenger service are engaged In the
Industries now. Mr.. Fowler had
problem to solve and after much
thought offered positions on the mes
senger force 10 girls at 81 Il day. The
results have been most gratifying. The
girls are intelligent, Of pleasing APP
pearance, and their businesslike man
ner has made them great public fa-
vorites
The experiment seems n decided sue
cess and Is being watched by other
telegraph office managers The girls
are especially valuable since the zone
system has been put into effect and
there is a time limit for the delivery
Of messages. The girls work only in
the day time.

CHAPTER ~.
First Blood at caIabasas.

Nothing more than De SPANS an
nouncement that he would sustain his
Safeguards was necessary 10 arouse
violent resentment at Calabasas and
among the Morgan following. The
grievance against Elpaso was made a
general one along the line. His stage
was singled out and ridden at times
both by Sandusky and I.ogan-the
really dangerous men of the Spanish
sinks-and by Gale Morgan and Sas-
soon to stir up trouble.
All Calabasas knew that Elpaso, If
he had to, would fight, and that the &C.
centric guard was not actually to be
cornered with impunity. Even Logan,
who, like Sandusky, was known to be
without fear and without mercy, felt
at least respect for Elpaso's short
ened shotgun, and stopped this side
actual hostilities with him. Sassoon,
however, nourished a particular grlev-
ance against the meditative guard, and
his was one not tempered either by
prudence or calculation. His chance
came one night when Elpaso had I'M
wisely allowed himself to be drawn
into card game at Calabasas inn. FL
pasO was VIGOROUSLY a stickler for a
square deal at cards. A dispute found
him without friend In the room. Sas-
soon reached for him with knife.
McAlpin was the first to get the
news at the barn. He gave first aid to
the helpless guard, and, without dream

hospital at Sleepy Cat, where it was

will go over and get Sassoon."
The chief stage-guard. Bob Scott,
the Indian, was In the barn. He smiled
at Lefever's enthusiasm. "Sassoon,"
said he, "is slippery"
You'd better let us go along and
see you do it." suggested De Spain,
who with the business in hand grew
thoughtful.
Gentlemen, / thank you" protested
Lefever, raising one hand in depreca-
ton, the other resting lightly on his
holster. 1--WE still have some little
reputation to maintain along the sinks.

Spain, touching his hat. spoke: II am

She looked at him in some surprise,
and then glanced toward Lefever, who
now rode up. De Spain was holding
out his hand for the letter. His eyes
met Mans, and each felt the moment
was a sort of challenge. De Spain. a
little self-conSciouS under her inspec-
ton, was aware only of her rather
fearless eyes and the dark hair under
her fawn cowboy hat.

''If the stage is gone l will hold it tC

the letter inside her blouse and spoke
to her pony, which turned leisurely
down the road.

returned De Spain composedly. i've

Morgan's fist came down on the bar

"Any time you have real grievance,
Morgan, I'll be glad to consider it,"
said De Spain. when one of your

"All right" retorted Morgan. "If

Morgan almost caught his breath at

shots between the two he gave no
ground.

gin. And Sassoon and Gale Morgan
are good men to begin with" he added.
As the horses of the two men
emerged from the canyon they saw
slender horsewoman riding in toward
the barn from the Music Mountain
trail. She stopped in front of Meal
pin, the barn boss. who stood outside
the Office door. McAlpin the old Medi-
cine Bend barnman, had been pro-
noted from Sleepy Cat by the new
manager. De Spain recognized the
roam pony, but. aside from that,
glance at the figure of the rider, as
she sat with her back to him, was
enough TO assure him Of Nan Morgan.

De Spain joined his associates at
dark outside the gap. Neither Sassoon
nor his friends had been seen. The
night WIS still, the sky cloudless. and
as the three men with led horse rode
at midnight into the mountains. the
great red heart of the Scorpion shone

out when they rode between the noun

u. S. Warships
To Operate from
Brazilian Ports
Naval Bases in Southern
Continent Will Aid Hunt
for German Raiders
From TIE Tribune Bureau

Washington, June 4.-The fact that
United States and Entente warshipS
are now at liberty practically to make
naval bases of Brazilian ports will, 1t
is believed here, be of great benefit
whether Brazil takes any further step
or not.
As German sea raiders have enjoyed
greater freedom OF action in waters on
the South American coasts than else
where, it is not improbable, 1t was IN
dicated to-day, that the Moewe or any
other German raider putting out for
South American waters 10 prey upon
European-American trade will have to
cope with United States war vessels
operating from Brazilian ports.
Reports received here from all parts
of Latin America show that BraIlls &C
ton in resembling her neutrality decree
in favor of the United States has had a
decidedly favorable effect Tor the
United States, and the belief was en-
tertained that other Latin American
countries would follow Brazlls action:
Although Bolivia has the credit Of
being the first Latin-American country
after Cuba. to sever relations with Ger
many. Brazil, also excepting Cuba and
Panama. was the first practically to Pc
come an ally of the United States. Her
action, in the view of officials here
furnishes the most important link IN
the bond between the Americas, and Is
credited with having accomplished more,
than any other one act toward real
Pan-American solidarity. 90.
II is understood here that Brazilian
diplomacy is at work among the Latih-
American republics, promoting the
shirt of American unity and heartily
seconding the course taken By the
United States in its war with Germany.
Chill affords fair prospect of sooner
or later aligning herself with Brazil,
and once Chile acts it is regarded as
certain that Argentina also Will com
plete the solidarity Of the a. b. l.
countries. swinging by their influence
practically all the rest of the LATIN
American nations into line.
