CHAPTER 70
Mr.. Chadwick's Special

OF course, as soon as the skip-Out
Of the four hold-up men gave us a
free hand we knew 1t was up to us to
get busy and do something. 1t was a
safe bet that the AleXa was carrying
her owner, and in that case Mr.. John
Chadwick and his train crew were
somewhere back In the hills. without
an engine, and with a good prospect
of staying put" until somebody should
go and hunt them up.
We've got to find gu what they've
done with Mr.. Chadwick" Mr.. Nor
cross broke out. And then: ut can't
be very far to where they have left

a question at the two women: "Will
you two stay here with Jimmie while
l go and see what l can find in that
gulchT"
They both paid me the compliment
Of saying that they'd stay with me.
but the young woman suggested that
it might be just as well If we should
all go up the gulch together. So we
plked out In the dark, the D0ss help-
ing Mrs. Sheila to hobo along over
the crOss-ties of the spur, and the lit
tie girl stumbling on behind with me.
We had followed the spur track up
the gulch for maybe a short quarter
of a mile when we came to the en-
CINE. As we had feared 1t might be,
the big machine was crippled. There
was a key gone out of n of the con-
~necting-rod crank-pin straps; n
miserable little piece of steel, maybe
eight inches long and tapering one
way. and half an inch or so thick the
other; but that was a-plenty. We
couldn't make a move without II.

place. Then, with one to boost and
the other to pull, we got our two
passengers up into the high cab. !
threw a few shovel-fuls of coal into
the firebox and put the blower on /;
and when we were all set, the boss
opened the throttle and we went care
fully nosing ahead ove the old track,
feeling our way up the gulch and keep
ing n sharp lookout for the Alexa as
we ground and squealed around the
curves.
1t must have been four or five miles

we found the private car, pushed In

his lost engine, he didn't let 1t inter-
fere with our welcome. Mr.. Chadwick
seemed 10 know Mrs. Sheila ut any

called her by name. Then he grabbed
for the boss and fairly shouted at

all that, you know.
The explanations, such as they were
came later. AS a matter of course.
the talk jumped first to the mysterious
hold-up and KIDNAPPING and the reason
why. There had been no violence
the pistol shots had been merely
meant TO scare the trainmen-and
there had been no attempt at robbery;
for that matter. Mr.. Chadwick hadn't
even seen the kidnapers, and hadn't
known what was going on until after
II was all over.

CIVIC ORDINANCE IN JAPAN
All Houses Have Tablet Telling Name
Of the Responsible Dweller
Within the Walls.

In japan you can learn a good many
things about the resident of a house
merely by looking at his door. Ac-
cording to police regulations, says a
writer in Chambers Journal the en-
trance to every residence must have a
small wooden tablet affixed to 1t. This
tablet has the name and the number OF
the house on 1t, and on another tablet
is the name of the responsible house
holder. who In many cases Is an In
FAINT. a younger brother Of a relative.
Sometimes. though rarely, the names
of other inmates are placed over the
door, but there is no police regulation
that requires 1t. except In the case OF
boarding houses, which have TO place
their boarders' names outside for all
to see. A person fortunate enough to
possess a telephone always has the
number proudly displayed over his en-
