THE MEN were deciding on a plan of approach, Jack saw, and surely enough they were planning what he had anticipated. He waited until they were bunched together, then let loose with a driving tackle that piled them all up. He swung wildly, throwing punches right and left as fast as he could. Something caught him alongside the temple, and he crumpled. During the melee, nobody noticed the figure that slipped out and switched bags. The leader motioned to the ladder, shouldered the bag and went up.

The midnight shift came to the hopper on the coal cars that were to be loaded. The train pulled in under the chute and jerked to a stop. The foreman shouted orders until the chute was lowered, then pulled the release cord. Nothing happened. Jack did his work well. Just then somebody spied his prone figure in the dirt, and the foreman came over.

“Well, that dirty dog. Because he was fired, he tried to jam up the load.”

The men were muttering under their breaths. They were all for lynching him.

A barelegged boy fought his way into the mob. “Let him alone,” he shouted. “He tried to stop the guys that were going to blow up the battleships!”

“WHAT!”

Briefly he told the story, and when he pointed to the roof of the hopper and told the men that the criminals were up there; they howled with joy. They’d show them what happened to guys who stepped in on Uncle Sam!

Some went up the ladder, others, like monkeys, climbed the chute. The three men certainly didn’t expect an attack, and before they knew it were being battered all over the place. Hard knuckles dug into them, and eager men took over when the others got tired. They were a sorry looking trio when they were hauled down.
