DULUTH, Minn,, March 19.-The gen.
eral land office has affirmed the Validity
OF the Jim Hill scrip as applied to selec-
tlons of land in the Rainy Lake district

Vided for by the grant upon which the
scrip was based, and on the further
ground that the selections were not
made In good faith. but for the benefit
OF A. 5. Cruise, Hutchinson. Beyier and
others, to whom it had been sold. The
commissioner denies both claims and
dismlsses the contest The land in
Volved is supposed TO be the most yalu-
able in the Rainy Lake district.

While the fight was raging the house
and quarters" were both in flames,
fired by the shells from n Confederate
gun. But for the strenuous efforts of
the detachment guarding the prisoners
in the barn that structure would have
also been reduced to ashes. 1t therefore
came about that when the battle was
over and men began to bring in the
wounded the barn was the only shelter
to be had. The prisoners were turned
out and the place given up to moaning,
groaning men and those who sought TO
succor them. The sounds of battle had
been heard in the Federal lines, and a
brigade of infantry arrived about 8
o'clock in tho evening. While their
services were not needed, the half dozen
surgeons sent out with the column had
work to last them the long night through
and far into the next day.
1t is a grim sight, a field hospital like
this, and they arc grim men into whose
hands the wounded fall as they are lift

or crying. The flight of a snowflake in

too, have longed for battle in which
the infantry should have no part, and
the oft expressed wish is about to be
gratified.
There Is no advantage Of position.

but every piece is silent a charge by

Two or three times he had led them in

He would test them now, and they

Boom! Boom! Boomi The Confeder-

CHAPTER xxx.

II Is within an hour of sunset on q
winters day. An inch of snow covers
the earth like royal carpet, and dark
and ragged clouds drive fast across
cold blue sky.
In front of Rest Haven, looking to the
south, the hills recede and leave an al
most level plain on which there is no
greater obstruction than an occasional
tree or bush. A creek which has its
birthplace in tho mountains meanders
across this plain, but divides it about
equally. The plain is large enough for
5000 cavalry to maneuver on, and along
its edges are dozen spots on which
field artillery can be posted advanta-
geously.
Attention, now, for you are going to
witness one of the grandest sights in war
"A cavalry fight! Only a few of the
Confederates have appeared in sight,
but Custer has Guessed the situation and
is preparing for it. While he is issuing
orders and the squadrons are moving
and the artillery galloping into position,
one of his aids is hurrying up thesmovo
to abandon the house. Wrapped in her
bedding instead Of shfoud, the dead
woman is borne to an ambulance by
troopers with uncovered heads and rev.
erent mien-troopers who will be shout
ing like devils and wearing the looks of
madmen half an hour hence. Marian
goes with her dead, Royal Kenton into
an ambulance by himself. The vehicles
take the road for the Federal lines.
You are a noncomhatant and had
better go with him, the officer said to
Steve Brayton as Kenton was ready to
go.
"Scuse me fur diiferin with yo', re-
piled Steve, but if 1t won't do no per-
tick Ter harm I'll stay and see this fuss
over with. It's goin to be a right smart
scrimmage, take it, and as it'll prob
ably be the last font I'll sec I'll sorter
hang around. Thar's that ole niger,
though-don't leave him.
Uncle Ben stood in tho midst Of the
hustle with bundles and packages in his
arms and at his feet He was told TO get
into the vehicle with Kenton, and next
moment six horses were galloping gun
over the spot whore he had stood.

the keen edge of Marian s grief had been
somewhat dulled by lapse Of time and

was better SO. Kenton was not held for
exchange under the circumstances, nor
did any one wish him to become rene
gadei by joining the Federal service.
After the marriage the bridal couple,
accompanied by Uncle Ben, went north
and there remained till the close of the
war. Steve Brayton was asked to go
nay, almost commanded-but he replied
"See yere, Yank, I've bin thinkin and
thinl,in, and make it ont this way:

give him his title as lieutenant. Did the
match please Uncle Ben? Hear what he
