captain. Still, no one offered to lead
the others and leave the room. After q
moments nervous rapping with his
knuckles on the desk Captain Chester
again abruptly spoke;
Gentlemen, am sorry to incom-
mode you, but if there be nothing more
that you desire to see me about shall
go on with some other matters, which,
pardon me, do not require your pres
ence -
AT this very broad hint the party
slowly found their legs, and with much
wonderment and not few resentful
chances at their temporary commander
the officers sauntered to the doorway
There, however, several stopped again,
still reluctant to leave in the face of so
pervading mystery, for Wilton turned.
'Am l to understand that Colonel
Maynard has left the post to be gone
any length Of timer" he asked.
He has not yet gone l do not know
how long he will be gone or how soon
he will start For pressing personal rea-
sons he has turned over the command
to me, and if he decide to remain
away Of course some field officer will be
ordered to come to headquarters. For
day or two you will have to worry
along with me, but l sha'n't worry you
more than l can help. I've got mystery
and mischief enough here to keep me
busy, God knows. Just ask Sloat to
come back here to me, will you? And,
Wilton, did not mean to be abrupt
with you. I'm all upset today Mr.. Ad-
jutant, notify Mr.. Jerrold at once that
he must not leave the post until have

Meantime those officers who had en-

to perform were standing or seated
around the room, but all observing pro-
found silence For moment or two no
sound was heard but the scratching of
the captains pen. Then, with some en-
barrassment and hesitancy, he laid it
down and glanced around him.

Two or three mentioned some routine
matters that required the action Of the
post commander, but did so reluctantly
as though they preferred to await the
orders of the colonel himself. Captain
Wilton indeed spoke his sentiments:

about getting two men Of my company

CHAPTER III.

The night before had been unusually
dark. A thick veil of clouds overspread
the heavens and hid the stars. Moon
there was none, for the faint silver cres-
cent that cleaned for moment through
the swift sailing wisps Of vapor had
dropped beneath the horizon soon after
tattoo, and the mournful strains of
'taps," borne on the rising wind, seem
ed to signal ''extinguish lights" to the
entire armament as we'll as to Fort Sib-
ley. There was dance of some kind at
the quarters of one of the staff officers
living far up the row on the southern
terrace. Chester heard the laughter and
chat as the young officers and their con.
voy Of matrons and maids came trip.
ping homeward after midnight He
was crusty old bachelor, to use his
own description, and rarely ventured
into these scenes Of social gayety, and
besides he was officer Of the day, and it
was {. theory he was fond of expound-
ing to Juniors that when OH guard no
soldier should permit himself to be
drawn from the scene of his duties.
With his books and his pipe Chester
whiled away the lonely hours of the
early night and wondered if the wind
would blow up rain or disperse the
clouds entirely. Toward o'clock light,
bounding footstep approached his door,
and the portal flew open as trim built
young fellow, with laughing eyes and
an air Of exuberant health and spirits,
came briskly in 1t was Rollins, the
Junior second lieutenant of the regiment
and Chester's own and only pet-so said
the envious others. He was barely a
year out of leading strings at the Point
and as full of hope and pluck and mis-
chief as colt. Moreover, he was frank
and teachable. said Chester, and didn't
come to him with the idea that he had
nothing to learn and less to do. The
boy won upon his gruff captain from the
very start, and, to the incredulous de-
light of the whole regiment, within six
months the old cynic had taken him into
his heart and home, and Mr.. Rollins
occupied pleasant room under Ches-
ter's rooftree and was the sole accredited
shafer Of the captains mess. To o
