two would probably "have been a
stray dfummer for a grocery house
and old Squire Leonard, who used to
“e in congress, and who was the great
man of Manikee.
Dut, just the same, the fact that
the cannonball express did not stop
at Manikee made a deadly enemy of
the town against the railroad.
The town council passed the most
strict laws against the railroad run-
ning trains through the town at a
greater speed than 35 miles an hour,
and the town marshal, Jake Salters,
used to stalk the freight trains like
a deer hunter and arrest them every
time they left a freight train lying
over a crossing for a second over
three minutes.
Jake had a watch about as big as
a saucer and a star like a tin plate.
He would sneak down behind the old
mill and peek out at the freight
crew switching cars about in the
yard. When a box car would be left
blockading the street longer than the
time fixed by the town council of
Manikee Jake would converge on the
scene, waving his cane and holding
his watch as high as his head.
“Surrender, surrender, gul darn ye,”
the town marshal would command.
“Surrender, b’gosh. Ye’ve kept that
thar’ crossin’ clused for four minits,
and th’ law says’ ye shall only clus it
fer three minits. Come on, darn ye,
to jail.”
Jake would arrest the conductor of
the train and a brakeman or two if
he could find them and march them
down to the office of Squire Rubens,
wher Le perhag or

_ tor, suddenly,
“if that train stops here, whistle or
something, and see if you can get Pat
Harris, the boss of the wrecking crew,
to come over here. I want to talk to
him.”
The train stopped, and the brakeman
blew a sirenlike note that lured Mr.
Harris to the calaboose window, where
he had a long talk with the gentleman
behind the bars. Mr. Harris seemed
guite taken with the proposition ad-
vanced by the conductor.
“It’s a go, Tommy,” said the boss.
“The kellyboose is only about tin feet
froin the track, an’ twill be aisy. We're
a-goin’ now ten miles beyant, an’ we'll
come back about midnight an’ do the
trick thin.”
At about 12:30 o'clock the wreck
train came quietly back to Manikee.
The car on which is placed the big
crane stood on the track nearest the
calaboose.
A jail delivery had been planned, but
a jail delivery on a scale that would
have alarmed a hardened jail-breaker.
The door of the calabonse was too
heavy to be readily beaten in with an
ax, and, beside, a few blows would
have awakened the town marshal and
his vigilant staff, who were quietly
sleeping in their homes a short dis-
tance down the street.
The wrecking boss had a much better
plan. The great crane was swung out-
ward by the crew and the heavy chains
dropped down around the ecalaboose.
Then with much squeaking and groan-
ing the calaboose was lifted bodily into
the air and deposited on the freight
car.
The wonder and consternation in
Manikee the next day was something
startling. Who had stolen the jail? Ot
course the railroad company was un-
er suspicion, but nothing conld be
ven. The town council offered $25
ard for the return “of the Manikee
calaboose, stolen by unknown
on the night of May 8,” but no-
peared to claim the reward.
