Chapter 1. THE STRANGE MESSAGE
IT was a little way station on the transcontinental railroad in western Canada. Only one man worked
there. He had what railroaders call an "OS" job. About all he had to do was "OS" trains - telegraph the
dispatcher that they were passing his point.

Usually, nothing much ever happened around there.

Just now, however, the telegrapher looked as if things were happening - big things. His manner was as
excited as that of a small boy about to see the circus.

The thing which had flustered him was a telegram that he had just copied. It was addressed to a
passenger on the fast express train which was due to arrive soon.

The operator interrupted his routine work frequently to stare at the name of the individual to whom the
message was going. He scratched his head.

"If that man is the fellow I think he is - " He finished his remark with a low whistle of amazement.

Some minutes later, the brass pounder gave a start as if he had just thought of something. He got up
hastily and went to a row of shelves in the rear of the room. These held magazines. Due to the loneliness
of his post, the operator was a heavy reader.

He picked out and thumbed through several magazines which made a practice of publishing stories of
famous men. The cover design of one of these consisted of a large bronze-colored question mark.
