Willis, of the governors staff, to the

especially as, by the time he managed
to get word to the powers and secure
his release, it was nearly four o'clock.
I am inclined to think that Lieut. Fort

And Private Hull? He sent word TO
his first sergeant that he would like
to be exchanged, and that gentleman
accomplished the desired end sending
another man to take his place, UNI
known to any other save the sergeant
and corporal of the guard.
His relief having arrived, Private
Hull fastened to the tent of Lieut.

Phil saw Dorothy on the trip down,
but she did not see him. She was very
quiet and did not look as if she were
enjoying herself hugely. AS matter
of fact, she had been tortured by con.
science ever since sending Phil that
note, and could not help wondering
how she could excuse herself to him.
She had not really arranged to go with
this party; they, the others, had talked
some about it, but she did not remem-

circus Midway; and in the evening,
Chester, the next town on the river be-
low Midway, was to furnish fireworks
and grand ball, after which the visit
ors from Fairfield and Midway were to
return home by steamboat, along with
more fireworks.
The evening of the third, Private
Hull, having permission from his cap
tain to be absent, hurried up town
and mp Locust avenue to the Porter
abode to tell Dorothy that he would

Dorothy, who was beginning to feel a
bit ashamed of herself for having had
such good time while Phil had been
shut up in camp, was delighted, and
for two hours talked of little else than
what they were to do next day. The
more she talked the more Phil thawed,
and it took them much longer to part
at the gate than usual; and Private
Hull went back to camp more in love
than ever, and Dorothy went to sleep
feeling a real good girl.
OF course, next morning, before it was
fairly dawn, the small boys were out
with their firecrackers and toy cannons;
then the old six-pounder at the court
house greeted the rising sun with a
resonant "Boom!'' and volley of
weeds; then at the blacksmith shop
some old soldiers began firing off an
camp doomed out over the lake; the
rafting of small arms and freN:acker
explosions became almost incessant;
and soon the Fourth of July was ready
for business, and everybody, dressed in
his best suit of clothes, was out on the
streets, accompanied by his family, all
looking patriotic, cheerful and ex-
pectant.
At nine a. M. Dorothy, with a bevy
of other girls and few staff officers,
was in the balcony of the leading hotel
waiting for the procession. After what
seemed an hour, but was really twenty
minutes. it turned the corner down by
the mill. The veterans and the local
6remen followed the first band; then
came in a barouche the governor and
two other state officials. Another band,

To say that Dorothy was mortified
would hardly express her feelings. Her

Whereat Dorothy proceeded to weep.
This was too much for jim. After
doing all he could to calm her, he rose

Good morning, Miss Porter,''' he
said, saluting. did you meet Miss
Briefly? She was TO tell you, believe,
that we will start on the three o'clock
boat"
"Why-why, I don't understand, Col.
Willis. Who are we?''
The colonel looked at her reproach-
fully. ''You don't really mean to tell
me you have forgotten the arrangement
we made day before yesterday? It was
understood, I believe, that you, Maj.
Woods, Miss Briefly and myself were
to constitute party"
Which was more or less true. Doro-
thy remembered, now, that there had
been something of the kind spoken of,
but she had not thought of it until now.
What was she to do? She looked up at
the colonel, and, Maj. Woods and Miss
Briefly meeting them just then, some
how she allowed herself to be convinced
that she lad promised to go with them.
But what to tell Phil? She could not
see him, and he was to call at two
o'clock. So she sent note-it was a
short one, because she knew she could
explain, Or excuse herself, much more
easily when she saw HIM.
A little darby brought the note to
Phil. He resd it three times, looking
puzzled, then displeased, then positive
ly angry. Then he turned and called
to the first sergeant.

The corporal of the guard had re-
ceived orders to add another sentry on
the lake shore, as there had been much
trouble on account of the boys going
outside the lines to battle. and, having a
liking for Phil. whom he knew, he
placed him last in the relief, in order to
give him this desirable post. IF ssssrs

or not. So long"
Fifteen minutes previously Col Frank
Willis, aid-de-camp to his excellency,
the governor, had selected cave near
this spot as an excellent place in which
to battle. He had left his clothes
about three rods inside the line, and
was now splashing in the cool water
beyond the point.
Presently he finished his additions,
and started to return, on foot, and was
almost at the line when voice called:
Halt! Who goes there?''
Now, Col. Willis was a'nice chap, but
he did not know much about war or
anything pertaining to it, so he an

With anyone else, Private Hull would
have been more lenient: but he knew

A SPOKANE TRAGEDY.
A Notorious Man Shot and Killed in
the Pacific Hotel.

SPOKANE, July 13.-Bob Masterson, one
of the most notorious desp eradoes in tn
west, was shot and killed instantly at the
Pacific hotel yesterday, while he was at
tempting to rescue his son-in-law, Harris,
from Deputy Sheriff Rowles of Whitman
county, who had Harris under arrest on
charge of horse stealing. At the first pistol
shot, about O'Clock, large number of
guests rushed from their rooms, and, as
the bullets flew about the halls, they
rushed panic-stricken to the street, where
they were met by a large crowd, anxious to
find the cause of the trouble. The excite
msnt ran high, and when John Burke, of
Tacoma, well known bank director, came
tottering down stairs, with blood stream
ing down his face and neck, the crowd be-
came frantic, and the bOlder ones made a
rush for the second story, where the shoot
ing occurred. During the struggle, old Bill
MastersOn, who has been a notorious char
acter in eastern Washington, was killed,
and John r. Eacho, ranCher, who was
sworn in as a special deputy in Whitman
county, to assist in the capture of the gang
of horse and cattle thieves, was shot twice
in the back of the head with a gun, causing
afracture of the skull. Rowles was badly
wounded also.
