next few years of his life might be
caught. Comforting to reflect that an
engineer is like soldier, never can
be certain about tomorrow. Time
enough to know that tomorrow meant
Tucson! What was that threadbare
proverb in the Overland Pacific that
Tod Marshall always keeps his men

necessary!
His eyes were resting on the banali.

"old town" Of its flavor. Were it not
for the beauty of the distant hills, the
Jar and rumble of the trains whose

confinement of an engine, who had

his own brain clear, receptive to big

cialization had always a fascination
for him. 1t was that which had
thrown him out Of his instructorship
into the firebox of a western engine.
1t had governed his course at college
to know one thing well, and then to
prove that he knew it we'll! Content
ed in the Mexican barracks, here he
was chatting, restive, after few
weeks of Tucson. For what was he
getting here? Adding what scrap OF
experience to the rounding of his pro
feSsion?
Retrospectively engineering could
hardly be said to be the work Of his
choice. Rather had it appeared to
choose him. From boyhood engineers
had always been, to him, the soldiers
Of modern civilization. To conquer
and subdue mountains, to shackle wild
rivers, to suspend trestles over dizzy
heights, to throw the tracks Of an ad-
vancing civilization along a newly
blazed trail, there would always be a
thrill in it for him. 1t had changed
the best quarterback of his high school
into the prlmmest of students at col
lege. Only for a short time had he let
his vanity sidetrack him, when the
honor of teaching what he had learned
stopped his own progress. A rut !
He remembered the day when it had
burst on him, the realization of the
rut he Vas in. He could see his Law

The engineers glance travelled around
the fleckless Office. A stranger to Mar
shall would get a wrong idea of the
man who worked in it! Those precise
files, the desk, orderly and polished,
the cleaning linoleum-and then the
man who made the negro janitor's life
proud burden! His clothes always
crumpled-spots, too, unless his Clau-
dia had had a chance at them! Black
string tie askew, all the outward Wis.,
ible signs of the southern gentleman
of assured ancestry. Not even valet
would ever keep Tod Marshall up to
the standard of that Office. What did
he have servants for, he had demand
ed of Rickard, if it were not to jump
after him, picking up the loose ends
he dropped?
Curious thing, magnetism. That
mans step on the stair, and every
man-jack Of them would jump to at

who would not swap his post for a ST.
necure so long as Tod Mashalrs one
lung kept him in Arizona, to Smythe,
the stoop-shouldered clerk, who had
followed Marshall's cough from San
Francisco. 1t was said in Arizona
he himself had met the statement in
TucSon-that any man who had ever
worked for Tod Marshall would rather
he warmed by the reflection of his
greatness than be given posts Of per-
sonal distinction.
Was it office routine Marshall in
tended him for? He admired without
stint Tod Marshall, but he preferred
to work by the side Of the other kind,
the strong men, without physical ham
dicap, the men who take risks, the
men who live the life Of soldiers. That
was the life he wanted. He would
wait long enough to get Marshall's in
tention, and then, If it meant-this |!
he would break loose. He would go
back to the front where he belonged

His clothes, of indefinite blackish hue,
would have disgraced an eastern man.

Rickard, smiling, put his book In
his pocket.

WOMEN ORGANIZE
NATIONAL BODY
FOR DEMOCRACY
Will Have National Headquar-
tiers and Branches in
Every State.

Initial steps in a national move
ment to organize feminine Democrats
in manner similar to that il which
were taken yesterday afternoon at a
meeting of representative women at
the Hotel Commodore. The gathering
was held under the auspices of the
Women's Democratic Club Of New
York at the invitation of Mrs. George
II. Childs, the President; Miss Mar
garet Vale. a niece of President Will
son, and Mrs. Ella O'Gorman Stan
ton.
A committee of prominent Demo-
slider ways and means of organization
and report to a conference to be held
at the Commodore on Jan. 8.
1.-The object of this movement" ex-
planned Miss Vale, lis to induce every
Democratic woman voter to become
actively interested and to do her part
in the building OF the platform of the
National Democratic Party
'-The organization is to be modelled
somewhat after the system Of the
committee in headquarters located in
some large city. New York has been
suggested, since 1t is tho largest and
wealthiest city in the country and is
the acknowledged Democratic strong
hold. There will he divisional head
quarters in every State and subdivls-
ional headquarters in every county,
town and district"
Mrs. ChildS was elected temporary
Chairman of the movement and chose
the following ladies as members Of
the Consideration Committee: Miss
Elisabeth Marbury, Mrs. oliver Harri-
man, Miss Ida Tarbell, Mrs. J. j.
Boylan, DR.. Josephine S. Baker, Mrs
G.. G.. SchiclS, Mrs. Ella OGOrman

Mrs. Robert Oliver, Miss Ethel Steb-
bins, Miss Laura Cauble. MS. Grace
s. Forsythe, Miss +. Sterling, Mrs.
Lillian II. Sire and Mrs. Charles l..
Tiffany.
Mrs. John Sherwin Crosby who Is
an executive of the WOmen'S Demo-
cratic League, asserted that at pres
ent there was no need for the fOTma-
tion Of a national women's Demo
cratic organization. Mrs. Stanton
took exception to this, saying that
the women Democrats were now
members of small organizations which
have no real power.
Mrs. Sire, who acted as Secretary
at the meeting, said that there must
be no attempt by the women Demo
Gratis 10 emulate the men voters OF
the same party.
TT is highly important" she said,
'-E5t We set the men an example"
~ the conclusion Of the meeting
airs. Crosby said that she would hold
a gathering this afternoon at the

Cussing the national campaign, She
said her meeting has the approval OF
