JOCKEY TODD, TORPEDO-MAN Jockey Todd was always sent with bis pair of bays on the perilous Journey of the torpedo-man.

They broke into a wild run, and the Custer- ites have a vivid memory of Jockey Todd's dash throug the town, He came down the main street ike a Whirlwind, and they held tueir breath, wait- ing for the explosion. As he rushed upon them they lived an age, But Jockey Todd sat on the Dox as carelessly as if he were winning a race in a awalk. In the post-office door stood a girl of twenty. She haarun out of tue street to avoid the team. She bad hardly tme to turn around before the bays shot past, yet her quick eyes noted the calmness of the Man at the linea, “ODI” she ened, “the Sandy f* ‘The Sandy was only a smail mountain stream that flowed tnto the Tuna, but the bridge had been torn up for repairs.

Leona Jervis went with the crowd, and when she saw Jockey Todd coolly answering questions she fell im love with Bim. Noticing her he remem Dered that he had seen her In the post-oilice door, and he smiled as ue realized her trightened look. Metting Lis gaze she blushed, and his smile mickly gave place to a scowl.

There were plates for two, and for some reason, when sue was washing them aiter the meal, Leona’s eyes became moist, ‘The next morning Jockey Todd went to the company’s office and resigned his position, giving 83 4 reason for leaving their employment that be Was afraid the glycerine would soon bumber him among Its victims If he did not stop Bandling it. A few days afterward he got work as a pumper ob @ lease on the hill Just above Leona’s home. He Could sit im the euyine-house* door and see her moving avout in the yard, One day Grip came home with the news that Jockey Todd had quit shooting wells and gone to pumping them.
