EXclamaIlOnS OF SURPRISE Cdulo iioH
the mems lips.
"How do you know thisT asked the
paymaster, peering sharply at the youth
through the gloom.
IL overheard the robbers when they
were planning the robbery in their cabin
on the creek.
'What is your name. and where do
you liver
Dan gave his name and place of resi-
dence.
will you explain just how you hap
pened to be in the locality of the robbers
cabin you mention?"
Dan gave brief account of his trouble
with the cattlemen and of his starting
to the MaImaton river settlement: of the
discovery of the cabin in the woods the
overhearing of the robbers plot; of his
capture by the robbers and his subse-
auent escape from the stranger and in
toxicated woman, emitting that part OF
the story that referred to the plot to de-
fraud himself and mother.
1t was plain that the paymaster and
lieutenant were impressed by the youth S
story.
This is an unpleasant situation OF
affairs" observed the lieutenant. 1T is
fortunate that obtained re-enforcements
at Scott"
1T is, indeed. | don't think they'll
dare attack us with our present
strength"
Nor l. But now that we are in
formed as to the intended attack, it will
be easy to form some plan to defeat
them"
do you know how many there are Of
the robbersF' asked the paymaster, ad-
dressing Dan.
About twenty, as near as | could find
out from their conversation" replied the
youth.
That is pretty strong force. II
must be a band of the Missouri guerrillas
who have escaped to the unsettled re-
gions of Kansas"
The paymaster and lieutenant then
held consultation for several moments.
Then the former turned to Dan and
said
I'VE feel grateful to you for the i'm
portant information you have given us,
and shall see that you are properly re-
warded."
IL thank you. but | do not wish any
reward, answered Dan. Il have only
done what was my duty to do, And now,
If you please, I'll go on, for wish to be
at the Fort early in the morning"
"Wait a moment" said the paymaster,
and going to the ambulance he climbed
to the inside. Presently light cleaned
from between the curtains. In few
moments he returned and handing Dan
two envelopes, he said:
Zone of these is for yourself, the other
is addressed to Captain Parker, who is
now quartered at Fort Scott. Deliver
this letter to him, and if You need a
friend rest assured that he will not hesi-
tate to render you any service in his
power"
Il thank you," said Dan. II may find
it necessary to ask his aid in some busi-
ness matters at the Fort" and then bid
ding the men good night he continued
his journey
The column Of troops moved on, and
Dan was soon alone on the dreary stretch
of prairie road.
AS he quickened his pace and hurried
on in the direction of the Fort he felt a
hghtness of heart he had not experienced
since leaving home.

cowboys, seeing that the officer was nc

further deception was useless.

lieutenant, land shall remain here to

1t was plain to the cattlemen now that
ly perceived the uselessness of keeping

With muttered imprecations they

and the officer ordered his men to move
forward. A few minutes brought them

given warm welcome.
And who can describe the JOY of the
little garrison on seeing Fanny Riggsby
descend from the ambulance. to be
clasped in her mothers arms. They
had missed her from the house and all
feared that some great evil had befallen
her.
When at last they learned of the dan
gers she had passed through for their
sakes, the settlers crowded about her
and clasped her hands warmly in theirs,
while tears were seen ON more than one
bearded cheek.
1t was now long past midnight, and
Lieutenant Hawley ordered a halt for
the remainder of the night.
I'VE will remain here till daylight
he said. land by that time the settlers
will be collected and be on hand ready
to defend you against any attack that

| His words were received with a cheer
by the garrison. who now felt that the
great danger that threatened them had
passed.
Thank God for his mercy and good
ness" said Mrs. Riggsby reverently,
while the tears ran down her cheeks.
He has not forsaken us in our hour of
need"
"Amenr responded one of the settlers
earnestly, but while the Lords been

Hawley warmly. She's brave, noble

Daylight was gust breaking over the
great prairie when company of nearly
a hundred mounted and armed settlers
arrived at the inn.
But it was found that the cattlemen
had withdrawn their forces during the
night. and the settlers were, for the time
being, complete masters of the situation.

Recipe for Beauty.

A pretty woman must first of all
have clearlv-ent regular features.
She must have full, clear oyas She
must have skin that is above re-
proach. untouched by rouge and
powder. She must have glossy hair
that has never known the touch of
bleach or dye. She must have q
white, expressive hand, preferably
small one, but not OF necessity, II 1t
is well kept and white.
She must know how to put on her
clothes, or she loses half her beauty.
She must fully understand what best
suits her in the way of Embarrassing,
and cling close TO that. A woman
may have all these attractions, and
unless her own personality is charm
ing, unless she has tact, it dawns on
you, after you have seen her once or
twice, that she isnot apretty woman.
The most fascinating women to men
usually have less than half these
regulation charms. Boston Gazette.
