wet blanket to garrison joys, etc., and
yet they really couldn't tell why.
He subscribed just as much to the
hop fund, though he didn't hop; to the
supper fund, though he didn't sup; to
the mess fund for the entertainment of
visiting officers, though he didn't drink;
to the dramatic fund, though he could
not act; to the garrison hunt, though
they said he couldn't ride. But he de-
clined to give cent toward the def
cheney bill that resulted when Sanders
entertained Steele at an all night SYM

box after box of cigars. ut was sense

brutal frankness. Half the money you
drank or smoked up in six hours could
have clothed and fed all the children in
Sudstown for six months. -
"Lord, but they were mad all
through!' said Hodge when describing
it. "There wasn't a name they didn t
call him all that winter.''
"And yet hear,'' said Mrs. Ire
maine, a woman Fort Worth loved and
looked up to as the .th did to Mrs.
Stannard, ''that for long time past
they have called him Sir Galahad in
stead Of Galbraith.''
"Oh, said Hodge, "that's one of old

CHAPTER III.

An unhappy man was Major Brooks
that gloomy month Of March. The news
from Washington via department head
quarters was most discouraging to Law
renee. He was both looking and doing
i'll. 1t seemed to ''break him all up,'
said letter from a friend in the adju-
tant generals Office, that so few could
be found to urge the secretary to do
something for him. What could they
do? was the answer. Admitting that
Lawrence had been grievously wronged,
"whose fault was it?' said the secre-
tary; mot mine.'' He had only acted
on the information and recommendation
Of officers to whom this work had been
intrusted. If they had erred, he should
have been Informed Of it before. "How
could you be informed" said the sena-
tor who had championed the poor fell
lows cause, ''when you resorted to
system that would have shamed Span
lard in the days of the inquisition or
the Bourbons with their lettres de cachet
and the Bastille?'' No one dreamed that
Lawrence was in danger until he was
done to death, and SO, out Of money, out
Of Clothes out Of hopes, health and
courage, poor Ned was fretting his
heart out, while tender women and
loyal friends were keeping guard over
his shabby army home and caring for
his two motherless lambs away out on
the far frontier, awaiting the day when
he should be restored to them.
It did not come, nor did Lawrence.
An old comrade of the Sixth corps, a
gallant volunteer brigade commander,
then III prosperous circumstances at
Washington, had given him the shelter
Of his home, only too gladly keeping
him in rations and cigars, as he would
have done in clothes and pocket money,
but he shook his head at whisky. "Fo
Gods sake, Ned, and for your babies
sake, leave that alone. It can't help
you. You never were a drinking man
before. Don't drink now, or your nerve
will give out utterly This and more
he urged and pleaded, but Lawrence's
pride seemed crushed and his heart
broken. Legal advisers told his friends
at last that restoration was impossible.
His place was filled. He had only one
course left if he would listen to nothing
but restoration to the army, and that
was to accept second ieutenancy and
begin over again at the bottom of the
list. They broached it to him, and he
broke out into wild, derisive laughter.

floating over the post that very day.
She had planned to drop in at the colo
nel's, where the Fraziers entertained at
dinner and music that very evening, in
hopes Of hearing accidentally something
definite, for Winn was one of those use
less husbands who never hear anything
Of current gossip. But women might
not talk if they thought she wished to
hear, and fate had provided her better
means. She saw here and now the op-
portunity and the man. It was Hodge
who had told SO much that was of vivid
interest to her; it was Hodge she had
been longing to meet for days, but VIM

reformed saloon" By this new
tangled cafe, the bishop means place
of resort for working men,

that would not be q saloon in the Am

A resort which set out nothing but but

sociability is an incident. Saloons are
not opened as social resorts or clubs;
