Graves he proceeded-the use OF a
handle to a mans name being regarded
in many far western communities at
that day as virtual admission Of per-

his name and fastened to the door.
Rand, swinging coolly along the corri-
dor, reading his dispatches, glanced up,
gave no sign Of recognition Of the
sheriff, but held out his hand to Graves,
whose face lighted with relief and hope
at the sight Of the staff officer

or introduce anybody else, Rand
whirled about and went striding slow

emily in another dispatch.

said he at the office, land order break

The colonel was not in sight Hhen
Graves, still accompanied by the sher-
iff and correspondents, came down to
the office. Nor did he reappear in the
hall. Graves, nervous, anxious, and
fretful, kept glancing at the main en-
trance, and finally led his faithful at

waiter came out to say that Maj.
Graves breakfast was getting cold, and
the other gentleman was half through
his'n; wanted to know if the majors
friends wouldn't excuse him long
enough to let him come in and get a
bite. The correspondents saw through
the scheme and took it all laughingly.
The sheriff said he'll go with him.
Rand looked neither surprised nor an
noyed when the big fellow came bulg-
ing in. He bowed civilly, but contin-
ued his engrossing work Of tearing a
territorial chicken to shreds, simply
saying they must excuse his apparent
haste, he had had no supper the night
before and long days work was
ahead and he was ravenous. The sher-
if grimly watched the well-known Of

to open talk on the subject of the rob-
berry. Rand listened with every mani

safed not a word Of his own. Sudden
ly pushing back his chair and tossing
his napkin thereon as he rose, he said:
"Now excuse me, major; finish your
breakfast, and I'll write letter or two.
Join me in the Office as soon as you're
ready"
OF course Graves was ready in three
minutes, and the sheriff also. Rand
looked up, nodded cheerily, and went
on with his letters. These he presently
read over, folded, addressed, and
stamped, with easy deliberation, and
by this time the correspondents re-

Rand went down to see Mrs. Hinkel,

at the fort when along about three p.

hours before the fight, and were under

CHAPTER TX.


A special engine and car took Rand.
the doctor, and certain hospital at
PENDANTS eastward TO Pawnee that
evening, but meantime, on his return
to town, the colonel had gracefully
surrendered to the press. He had so
much to tell about the action of Win
throp's command that it left little
room for his views or theories as to the
robbery. He won the hearts of cor
respondents by offering to take them
along with him and tell them all he
could on the way, and thus get time to
look into certain other matters with
which he was charged. He asked the
sheriff for description of the bills
found in Schramn's box, and the sheriff
allowed him to see the packet and make
memoranda for himself. He asked to
see Mr.. Lacy. In fact, he asked twice
to see Mr.. Lacy; but, though that gem
tleman had returned to the hotel at
noon, he could not be found. He had
gone out again after hearing that the
major was driving somewhere with Col.
Rand. Up to the, minute the special
was reported ready, Mr. Lacy did not
reappear, and when it was time to start
Rand told the telegraph operator to
send the following:

The run to Minden along the level
valley was made in thirty minutes, and
the agent was on the platform, green
flag hanging from the signal arm over
head The engineer, therefore, had
orders to stop anyhow. A little knot
of loungers had gathered, and with
genuine frontier curiosity swarmed
about the colonel as he took and
opened the kilograms awaiting him.
He read as he moved to the door Of the
station, and some of the party pre-
pared to do likewise. Once inside the
office, however, Rand shut and snapped
the door behind him and turned on the
agent:
. "You were ordered, believe to send
q written description Of the two men
who came to you with dispatch for
Paymaster Graves and lured him on
