CHAPTER I THE transcontinental limited, extra-fare train, the Big Chief, stretched its jointed length along the terminal tracks like a lethargic monster slowly stirring from sleep. The one huge gleaming eye in the front of its head blinked and peered into the distance, lesser eyes opened and closed speculatively; the monster groaned and snorted and hissed with startling suddenness at intervals; it stirred and waited and dozed again, always in an attitude of alert readiness to leap away. Men—looking small and powerless by comparison—s curried around it, swarmed over it and peered into its vitals, probed and adjusted and shouted to each other. Bells clanged, whistles screeched, locomotives panted and sighed, voices shrilled and echoed and reverberated through the vast expanse of the terminal sheds. Far down the platform near the gates the ostentatious round red sign on the observation platform of the Big Chief guided anxious passengers to their sections and a double relief. For they entered and found the little compartments which would serve them for living quarters for the next three days—and they had not missed their train. People swarmed through the gates and around the waiting monster like pygmies examning a Cyclops. Singly—in twos and threes—in groups. Laughing, talking, shouting, waiting leisurely ' or moving in haste. Kisses and embraces —tears. Greetings and farewells. On the observation platform a girl stood beside the railing with her hand raised in a gesture of farewell, smiling into a camera lens focused upon her. Its operator nodded and grinned broadly fit the girl, raised his left hand which held a photoflash reflector, grasped the camera bulb in his right hand. A white lurid light flared for a fraction of an instant tn which the glaring illumination* of the concourse was dimmed to a garish yellow. The infinitesimal click of the camera shutter was lost in the pandemonium of sounds surrsunding it, but the action had recorded the first incident of importance in Jaxie Cameron's exciting adventure in the interest of the Star-Trilwne. The girl laughed gayly and leaned over the brass railing to call to the 1 photographer. He grasped the camera, folded the tripod, tucked it under his arm and hurried over to peer up eagerly into her face. “I hope you got a good shot for the morning edition, Tommy.” She smiled down at him. “You know, I just can't believe yet that I’m going 'way out to the coast for the column, :an you?” “Nothing else is so real to me right now, Jaxie.” His face sobered instantly “Gee! but I hate to have you go!" “Why, Tom!” Her soft brown eyes reproved him, gently. “Well, of course, you know what I mean. Sure, I want you to go and have a swell trip and all that—but, Jaxie, be sure you come back to the Star-Tribune office the same as you left—my best girl!” His voice pleaded “Why, of course, you old half portion! What do you think,” she laughed, “that I'll elope with some handsome cowboy in chaps and ’’ “More likely.” he interrupted morosely, “that some of those movie scouts will snap you up as the greatest find of the flickers.” “Idiot!” she rebuked him fotjdly and patted the hand that rested on the rail, "Run along now and get the rest of your shots for the roto, so you’ll still be in the office when I do return. 'Bye, Tommy, and be good!” “ 'Bye, Jaxie darlin’, and ditto. Observers turned to each other with comments “Who is she —a movie star? “She might be —or an entry for the beauty contest on the coast, and winner of the title, even.” Shrugs, node, curious stares, admiring glances The photographer waved his hat and hurried away through the gates. Jaxie turned around to face a battery of eyes.

Other passengers had come out of the car onto the platform, also conj versing with those who were waitj ing to speed their departure. Sev- , eral had watched the incident from . inside the car. A man stood in the , open doorway. He pushed the screen j forward and came out as Jaxie faced him. Their glances met and ’ caught briefly as he held the door ] for her. When she had passed him . and entered he turned and watched j her progress through the club car to , the corridor. Passengers who had > settled themselves and their baggage earlier already filled the arm- . chairs and divans of the car Their I eyes followed Jaxie, involuntarily, I as she walked between them. She

was a magnet for eyes, in her smart : ' tweed suit with a soft beaver collar that embraced her shoulders gently < and formed a hollow for the smart i • off-the-face hat that framed her : lovely face as if proud to display its : ' charming features. In the corridor of the next car she i stepped aside to permit another girl I 'to pass—a girl who was very blonde, ' very pretty and very nonchalant. ' Her wide blue eyes appraised Jaxie i for a moment with an air of condescending hauteur, then she swaggered on into the club car. “Not bad looking,” Jaxie reflected, accustomed to cataloguing 1 people at a glance or a brief meet- i ; ing and converting them into grist : for the mill of her daily column. 1 ■ “But her clothes are imitations of i expensive models, and she isn’t as i genuine as she thinks she looks, i 1 She overdoes her bored-by-travel air, and betrays the fact that she never was on a train before in her ' life.” Jaxie’s progress was again re- I tarded by the porter at the entrance ' to her car. Staggering in pnd drop- i ping several bulky pieces of bag- i gage in the aisle, he began to stow i them away into the first section with 1 vicious and glowering thrusts, i Dunnage bags, they were, and two i battered khaki cases that looked as 1 if they had done service in a couple l of wars. A rattling of implements' < suggested miner’* tools. He surely could not be a wandering laborer on 1 an extra-fare train. The porter gave 1 the last parcel a final belligerent 1 kick under the seat with his foot I and stood aside to allow Jaxie to i pass. Her smile was sympathetic < and he grinned response. This lady, now. She must be < somebody, she must, his thoughts I ran swiftly as he worked. Cornin’ to the train early and havin’ her picture taken on the platform. Yes,

' sir! He would treat her right, he ■ would, and his thoughts leaped ahead to conjecture upon th* re- . suiting tip. One by one Mose appraised his i passengers—their baggage, their clothes, their manners. Mose was an enterprising porter. But human nature was the darndest queer thing! You never could be sure. A porter’s life was a constant guessing game, and nine times out of ten you guessed wrong. As a gamble, it had all the horses and dice in the world beaten. “Ah thinks ahm gonna be right ’bout dat gal, though,” he reassured himself. "Now dis heah bird, numbah one, he am gonna be left purty

much to hisself, what ah mean. Ahm not gonna be pesterin’ him wid de clothes brush and sich-lak.” He grinned appreciation of his own soliloquy as he tugged and shoved the last dunnage bag under the seat and recalled the little old man with the white goatee, clad in khaki breeches and high boots, whose queer luggage he had just accepted with mental disapproval. The little man’s voice arrested his meditation. “Get it all in, boy? Good! Now, I’m just hoping that no one shares this section for a couple of days.” “Well, suh, they suttingly wouldn’t be much room foh ’em if dcy did, ah’ll say,” Mose observed with a deprecative shrug, then almost collapsed into the seat when his passenger proffered a dollar bill for his services, and to suggest assurance of his privacy. Bowing and grinning his thanks, Mose backed into the passage and escaped. “Lawd-help-us,” he gasped to himself, “mistake numbah nine-hunderd-an’-ninety-nine — numbah one on dis heah trip. Mose, you dumb ox, you. Not even them swells in drawin’ room B done gib you dat much tip tonight!” But his ebullient thoughts shifted cannily the next moment, as he reflected. “Well, mebbe after all. ah’s right in de fust place. Guess mebbe dat ol’ bird figgers dis heah frogskin pays me foh de whole trip.” He had no further opportunity for conjecture, however, for just at that moment there was a sudden burst of shouts and laughter above the din outside, and minute pelting sounds, as of sleet and hail on the car windows and platform. A girl, laughing excitedly, dashed into tha corridor, holding her arms over her head in a protective gesture. (To be continued) Copjriffht. tilni Webstar.' Dbttlbuted bifii Features Syudfcate, Lao.
