toward the path that led to it. But
it was only her little brother Arthur.
He came running up the walk, nearly
breathless with haste and excitement.

he observed her, "the seventh regiment

But Susan was gone. With a face
from which every vestige of color had
fed, she reached her own room. So he
was going, she said to herself, and she
was the cause Of it. If he had decided
that it was his duty to go, it would
not have seemed half so terrible.
She thought of the strength and no
bility of his nature, the tenderness of
his heart. Never had he seemed so
dear to her. Never had she realized
how much, or in how many ways she
should miss him. She recalled her
dream, and felt that it was prophecy.

battle, as he would lay ere long.
And he was going without bidding
her. goodbye. She could not have it

AS she said this she arose, and tying
on her hat, and covering her light mus
lin dress with large, dark mantle
stole out of the house. She passed
rapidly along the nearly deserted
streets. until she came to the pleasant
little cottage where John lived with his
widowed mother. She had never been
inside Of it, but had often looked at it
admiringly, as it stood empowered in
fruit and shade trees, rose-b bushes and
clustering vines, and never before with
out thinking that sometime it was to be
her home as well as his.
She mounted the steps, and rang the
bell. Mrs. Albright came to the door.
Susan almost dreaded to look into her
face, feeling that she might justly re-
proach her with being the cause Of the
loss she was about to sustain, the sup
port and championship of her only
child. But to her relief her counte-
nance wore the same kind and placid
look that was its prevailing expression,
though she seemed somewhat surprised
at her unexpected appearance.

Susan rose to her feet as she heard
the sound Of that step along the hall.
and moment later the door opened
and John entered. The cold, stern look
faded from his lip and brow as he
looked upon her pale, agitated counte-
nance.

Special Agents to Investigate Their Land
~Stealings on the Ranges.
CHAMBERLAIN, s. D., Aug. 10
Trouble is brewing for the numberless
squatters who have for years persisted
in remaining upon tracts in the interior
of the coded Sioux lands without max.
ing entry. Commencing oon after the
opening of a portion of the Sioux reser.
walton in 1890. the violations Of the
land laws have been fragrant. Practi.
cally all of the violators are stockmen,
who have in many instances fenced
vast tracts of the public domain. They
have made no attempt whatever tc
make entry Of the land 50 held as re.
quired by law. The special agents who
will now investigate the matter are
provided with plats and records and
the squatters will be unable to deceive
them by insisting that they have made
entry. Tracts Of many thousands OF
acres in Pratt. Jackson, Nowlin and
Presho counties are now illegally fenced
and held ty stockmen in defiance OF
law. which prescribes severe penalties
for offenses of this character.

Teller that they had followed thus far,

be void OF selfish motives, and for the
sole good Of the people concerned. Sen
ator Teller had made an open bid for the
Chicago nomination, and to aid him
they had remained silent. Now be
