The spectators out, the door closed and
locked, blinds down and the mice scared
back in their holes, the mayor said the OBJ
ject of the surroundings was to take into
consideration the part of the council in en-
PERTAINING the ST. Louis capitalists who
are to visit the city.
Mr.. Healy-The board of trade is making
arrangements to care fer the party in a
royal manner. 1t is intended
to give them an excursion on
the Wichita and Western and
also take them out over the Wichita s.
Colorado.
Mr.. Schuitzler-I think the council
ought to request the police commissioners
TO keep their eyes closed while the Mis-
souri, gentlemen are in the city.
This suggestion was followed by con-
siderable merriment which was finally in
terrupted by the mayor, who stated that
the board of trade had requested him to
appoint a committee of five from the coun-
Gil to be part of the reception committee.
There being no objections be would make
such appointment, and there being none
he proceeded to read names as folio VS.:
Glaze, Coffin, Healy, Barnes and Wight.
1t was suggested by Downing that IL
might be well to have one from each ward
when the mayor answered that he was
asked to appoint only five. This was fol-
lowed by the remark that the Sixth ward
should be represented and the committee
as named took both members from the
Fourth ward and scarcely a fair show.
This caused his honor TO drop Coffin and
put In his place Mr.. Mercer.

~ the veranda There had been
fortnight of getting settled" at the
new post, preceded by month of march
ing that had brought the battalion from
distant service to this strange Texan sta
ton. The new corners had been hospita-
bly, welcomed by the officers of the little
garrison of infantry and now, in recog-
milton of their many courtesies, the field
officer commanding the arriving troops
had been entertaining the resident Off
GERS and ladies at dinner The colonel
was host in himself. but preferred not
to draw too heavily on his reserves of
anecdote and small talk, so he had called
in two of his subaterns to assist in the
pleasant duty of being attentive to the
infantry ladies, and just now, at 11:45 D
m., he was wondering if Lieut.. Perry
had not too literally construed his in
structions, for that young gentleman
was devoting himself to Mrs. Belknap in
a manner SO marked as to make the cap
tain, her lawful lord and master, mani
festly uneasy
Mrs Belknap, however, seemed to en-
JOY the situation immensely She was
pretty woman at most times, as even
her rivals admitted She was beauti-
full woman at all times, was the verdict
OF the officers of the regiment when they
happened to speak of the matter among
themselves. She was dark, with lus-
trous eyes and sweeping lashes, with
coral lips and much luxuriance of tress,
and a way of glancing sideways from
under her heavily fringed eyelids that
the younger and more impressionable
men found quite irresistible when ac-
corded the rare luxury of tete-a-tete.
Belknap was big and boisterous man;
Mrs. Belknap was small in stature, and
soft-very soft-of voice. Belknap was
either brusquely repellent or oppressively
cordial in manner; Mrs Belknap was
either gently and exasperatingly indif-
ferent to those whom she did not care to
attract, or caressingly sweet to those
whose attentions she desired.
In their own regiment the young Off
GERS soon found that unless they wished
to be involved in an unpleasantness with
Belknap it was best to be only very mod
erately devoted to his pretty wife, and
those to whom an unpleasantness with
the big captain might have had no ter
rors of consequence were deferred by
the fact that Mrs. Belknap's devotee
among the youngsters" had invariably
become an object of coldness and aver
sion to the other danes and damsels of
the garrison. Very short lived, there
fore, had been the little fiirtations that
sprang up from time to time in those
frontier posts wherein Capt. and Mrs.
The Florida agriculturist., 1889-10-09

they did everything they could to be
civil to them, but not an invitation
would they accept, not one would they
extend; and so from that day to this
none of the officers have had any inter
course with the people at the ranch, and
the soldiers know very little more. Once
or twice year some very ordinary look
ing men arrive who are said to be very
distinguished people-in England; but
they remain only little while, and go
away as suddenly as they came" :"
And you have never seen any of
them?"
Never, except at a distance. Nor
has any one Of the officers, except DIR.
Qllin."
"And you have never heard anything
about the inmates and why they keep
up this policy of exclusiveness?"
1--WE have heard all manner of things
some of them wildly romantic, some
mysteriously tragic, and all of them,
probably, absurd. At all events, Capt.
Lawrence has told me he did not wish
me to repeat what had heard, or to be
concerned in any way with the stories
af1oat; SO you must ask somebody else.
Try the doctor To change the subject,
Mr.. Perry, see you have lost that mys-
terious little silken braid and tassel you
wore on your cap button. fancied
there was some romance attached to it,
and now it is gone.
Perry laughed, his blue eyes twinkling
with fun: ''If will tell you how and
where got that tassel. will you tell me
what you have heard about Dunraven
Ranch?"
Il cannot, unless Capt. Lawrence
withdrawS his prohibition Perhaps he
will, though, for think it was only be-
cause he was tired of hearing all our
con- lectures and theories.
''Well, will you tell me if can induce
the captain to say he has no objection?"
persisted Perry
II will to-morrow-if you will tell me
about the tassel tonight
SIS it positive promise? You will tell
me tomorrow all you have heard about
Dunraven Ranch if | will tell you to-
night all know about the tassel?'
''Yes-a promise.

to the compact. Graham Now for my
confession have worn that tassel ever
since our parting ball at Fort Riley.
That is to say, it has been fastened to
that button ever since the ball until to-
night; but I've been mighty careful not
to wear that cap on any kind of duty.
And yet you let Mrs. Belknap take it
off tonight"
"Why shouldn't l? There was no
sentiment whatever attached to it, |
haven't the faintest idea whose it was,
and only tied it there for the fun of the
thing and to make Graham, here, ask
questions.
''Mr. Perryr gasped Mrs. Lawrence.
"And do you mean that Mrs. Belknap
knows-that you told her what you have
just told me?''
''Well, no, laughed Perry. Il fancy
Mrs. Belknap thinks as you thought
that it was gage d'amour. Halo! look
at that light away out there across the
prairie. What can that be?''
Mrs. Lawrence rose suddenly to her
feet and gazed southeastward in the di
rection in which the young officer point
ed. It was lovely. starlit night. A
soft wind was blowing gently from the
south and bearing with it the fragrance
of spring blossoms and far away flower

by Perry's sudden exclamation. Mrs.
