He made his escape, and in “On Haz
ardous Service” XV G Hex mol* tells of
the wi'A'ks that he was followed by se
etvt service men and small details of
Federal cavalry and how by his very
audacity and quick wit he escaped re
capture
lie hhindcre.l into a camp of them
one ui *:!•( • : at dawn and saw instant
|y that ret-eat was impossible; they
were ready to open fire with a dozen
revolvers Without hesitation he strode
up t«* the men and shouted indignantly
“You make mighty free with my
nils’ With all this wood round you
did not need to hum my fences ” Ho
seemed very angry.
“Who are you?” a corporal stam
inered
“The owner of the rails, of course!*
Vid then, apparently somewhat mol
lirusl. he went on: “Well, well! XYar
is war but don’t do any more damage
than you can help, boys.” He sal
down with them to their breakfast and
chatted with them pleasantly One of
them asked if hi* had seen Wat IV»wic
and described him accurately At the
description they all stared at him and
moved uneasily, in doubt as to what
was to be done. He tallied with the
description in every respect But his
insolence in walking up to them and
upbraiding them for burning “his*
rails made them doubt their own eyes
“Why, yes.” he drawled. “Wat Bo
wle was in these parts last week. I
know him well. They say he has gone
to the north part of the county, where
he hails from. I don’t know, though,
as to that.”
Then rising and stretching himself
he looked down into their doubt filled
eyes and laughed at them—laughed In
their very’ faces—and said:
"I'm glad you nil met me on ro’ own
land. You might have made trouble
for me elsewhere, for they all say I
look like him a lot Goodby. boys’
Good luck!"

American rail
roads are the fastest
and safest in the world.
The American trainman
counts his time in seconds.
Foreign railroad men carry no
such watch as the HOWARD.
Official inspection of railroad
watches exists in no other country.
HOWARD Railroad Watches(ferrr
getting) arc officially certified and adopted
by the time inspectors of one hundred and
forty of the leading railroads of America.
Better than that, their daily performance
is finer, more accurate than the most exact
I ing railroad requirements,
l The balance-wheelof the HOWARD
9 Watch is made of special hard-tempered
steel—will not knock out of true with the
jar and vibration of railroad service.
Every HOWARD is made and ad
justed as a fine watch. Cased and timed
in its own case by the HOWARD watch
makers.
The price of the HOWARD is flr^d
—railroad models $50 to $ 140—and a
printed price-ticket attached.
We carry this distinctive watch and
would like to show it to you.
