CHAPTER III.

Amid the stirring scenes OF 62 tnare
was not much time for cavalry 1nan to
indulge in romance. but Harry Winthrop
found ar opportunity to make brief axct71'-
sion to the spot where he had been struck
down by the unseen foe, for he could not
disabuse his mind Of the belief that Kate
Frcbishan's presence had been areality and
not the .phantasy Of delir;um, as Gordon
Grey had maintained so stubbornly.
All, yes, caught upon thorn on q bush

chief, stained and torn; but, when lie read
the initials K. +. on its corner, more
precious to him than the costliest one the
peasants Of Belgium ever wove on their
swan down pillows, he was sure Of Ii.
So Kate was there after all. end this WAS
the mute witness that her love for him was
not dead; else, why had he been SO tendsrly
treated, if her intercessions had not pre-
vailed2 Night and day with n lovers fervor
he wore the dear relic next his heart through
many month Of wild adventure.
To Gordon Grey's surprise he returned to

check.

sir, said the incorrigible lad

"News should think sol The best OF
news. Fighting joe Hooker has licked the
Rebs at Williamsburg and pursued john

"That is grand, indeed"
"Ah, but I've better story to tel you
than that. Stonewall Jackson and Eweu
are comming up the valley in force, and
We'll see some real fun before the STOW
falls"
"That threatens Washington" said
Harry, gravely. "I see Johnstop's move;

would. Jackson's raid turned the tide OF

It is not difficult to recognize Henry

Loads Carried by ynynrcnrs.

something like thousand miles, from
Lapoint over to the head waters of the
Mississippi, and down the latter to Fort
Smelling, at mouth of Minnesota river.
We made several portages, the longest
being nine miles. We had along two
trunks, aHh provisions and bedding for
four persons for one month. The load
which our two voyageurs carried was
certainly $50 to 200 pounds each. They
made seven miles in one day, going over
the ground five times-i. e., thirty-iive
miles. Three-iifths Of the distance they
were loaded, and two-fifths going hack
for another lead. Their plan was to take
the heaviest load first (about 200 pounds).
and carry it about mile or mile ana a
half, put it down, so back for another
load of $50 pounds, carry this a mile or
mile and half beyond the first deposit,
then come back, take up the first deposit
and carry it the same distance beyond,

the night; then. last Of all, they went

buffaloes.
The buffalo hunt, which was conducted
under the direction Of Gen. Sheridan,
was q very successful affair. The de.
tails were executed by Buffalo Bill, who
was a great favorite with Sheridan.
During the hunt a grand war dance was
given by Spotted Tail and his Indians.
1,400 in all, who had been brought down
from their agency by Buffalo Bill to en-.
tertain the visitors. On the return from the
hunt the grand duke and Gen. Sheridan
took seats in double seated open carriage
drawn by four splendid cavalry horses,
which were not much used to the harness.
The driver was Bill Reed, an overland
stage driver. On the way in the grand
duke frequently expressed his admiration
Of the skillful manner in which Reed
handled the reins. Sheridan informed
him that Buffalo Bill had also been n
stage driver in the Rocky mountains, and
thereupon his highness expressed desire
10 see him drive. Buffalo Bill was i'm ad-
vance, and Sheridan shouted out 20 him !;
"Cody, get in here and show the duke
how you can drive. Mr.. Reed win change
places with you and ride your horse. /"
''All right. general" responded Cody,
and in a few moments h0 had the reins
and the horses were dancing over the
prairie.

PURIFY YOUR BLOOD.

Impurities In the blood produce diseases.
Bodily and mental health depend upon
healthy condition OF the blood. The blood.
particularly in the spring and during the hot
summer months, becomes clogged with Inn
purities, which poison ii and generate dis
ease. A harmless blood purifier, without a
particle Of mineral poison In 1t, such as mer'
curry or potash, is necessary TO remove these
impurities and to restore the healthy tone OF
mind and body. The best purifier and tonic
known TO the world Is Swift's Specific ls.S.s.L
In regard TO Its wonderful purifying and
Ionic powers we give few testimonials as

take bound, and not touch the ground

duke and the general were kept rather
busy in holding their positions on the
seats, but when they saw that Bill was
keeping the horses straight in the road
they seemed TO enjoy the dash. Bill was
unable 10 stop the horses until they ran
into the camp where they were to obtain
fresh relay. The grand duke said he
