know that bugle anywhere But they
thought he was raving, and he lapsed
again into his fever, thinking he was at
some great review.
But the lieutenant bent forward and
listened. Keep quiet" he said Lis
ten" And up the canyon, through the
heavy smoke of the rifles, came the
notes of bugle clear and distinct in
lop."
1t was rather 4 choking, feeble cheer
they gave, but it reached the regi-
ment.
''There they comet" yelled the SER
geant, excitedly. And they dimly saw
a dark mass in perfect order come
around projecting crag of the canyon
and move swiftly and steadily up the
great gulch A few shots met the ad-
vancing column. The Indians around
the circle were slipping away.
In few moments the colonel stepped
over the low breastworlz, went up to
the lieutenant, who was leaning dizziiy
against n rock, and took his hand. The
colonel did not say anything, for he
was not demonstrative man, and per-
haps he thought no words were needed
But he stood silent for several min
utes, and the men came up and stood
about looking with half-smothered
curses and wild faces on the debris
strewn bit of ground, on the cartridge
shells, canteens, torn pieces of cloth
ing, and on the pathetic heap in the
center. Gordon, the trumpeter, had
one of the bodies in his arms, and,
with his back to the moonlight, was
crying like boy.
Connors woke at last, with a rather
luxurious sense of weakness, with
dim recollection of some horrible
dream, but with feeling that it was
all over now, and that he was rather
happy and contented than otherwise.
HIS head felt cool, and though when he
tried to raise his hands he found tlsat
they were so heavy he could not lift
them six inches, the discovery some
how did not cause him much anxiety,
but rather amused him.
He must have slept again, for the
next thing he remembered was seeing
familiar little face above him, framed
in the long tresses of brown hair that
nung forward as size DeHI over nln
"Connors,' she said, little quaver-
ingly, as she softly strol1ed one of his
thin hands, and the touch was wonder
fully soothing to the invalid Con
nors, I'm so glad you're better. In a
few weeks we'll be going out to look at
the horses together again, won't we?
And you have done the noblest thing I
ever heard of. Connors, you're-you're
the goodest man in the world, and my
dearest friendI'' and she leaned over
and kissed him.
No one had ever kissed him before
Perhaps it was because he was very
weak, but he felt that he was crying.
''Pooh!" he said, family, with an ef-
fort to stop the tears running out the
corners of his eyes, 'me good!''-Fran-
els Parsons, in Harper's Weekly.
