More rifles stolen!" suggested
those who came running up. The gar
rison of Fort Curzon were well accus-
toned to night visits from the we'll
creased and slippery rifle thieves from
the hills.
But the word soon passed that
something precious than rifles
had gone this time.
Chubby was missing.
Then 1t was remembered how VEN
geance deep and dire had been sworn
against Capt. Donnelly, in that he had
procured expatriation to the Andaman
islands for the last pair OF rife thieves
who had been captured within the con-
fines of Fort Curzon.
The bugles blared out the boot and
saddle" Corporal MacBean heard a
scream from Janet that cut through
his heart like a knife. A red mist
shut across his eyes, and he rode
like a mailman toward the mountains
| ahead, losing all sense Of time in the
beat Of the wildly galloping hoofs.
The best horse in the garrison was
his.
The dawn broke in a swimming mist
OF b%lue-gray. Then the distant noun
tain tops grew pink, and Capt. Mac
Bean rode on with his eyes fixed on
q cloud of dust a mile ahead.
There were four of them. One, two
three, four, he counted. Then he re-
membered that he was unarmed.
A rocky defle opened around him
as he drew steadily up to the group of
horsemen that galloped wildly ahead
Of him. One Of them turned in his
saddle, and a shot came whistling
back. Then they all drew rein, and a
corporal's heart beat thick and fast as
he saw a white patch drop from the
saddle bow of the leader.
1t was Chubby, unframed; for she
ran a little way, then paused, and
perched herself on a small bowlder.
The horse beneath him Numbered
on. He saw the horsemen draw to-
gether, while four rifles were leveled
at his breast. A squirt of flame, a
sharp whistling about his ears, and
he was upon them. One horse rolled
over before his as he crashed into the
group and felt his outstretched hand
grip the beard and the jaw Of the man
he had marked. There was a sharp
Jerk. His knees frightened on the sad
die with a grip that twisted the mus
cles Of his thighs to writhing knots Of
eedhot iron. He heard a crash behind

Corporal MacBean sprans to his feet
like a shot. Then he saluted and
blushed down to his heels, for there
stood Miss Janet Sloane. in all the
glory of her white-stringed bonnet.
regarding him with a none too friend
ly look in her fine eyes.
Il beg YOU pardon, Miss Sloane"
said Corporal MacBean humbly and
ponderously. Il was not aware that
you were in any anxiety about Miss
Victoria, or I would have brought her
to you at once. | was just telling
missile that l was going to make her a

"A nice Noah's ark you'd make"

putting Ideas into that child's head!'
The rank injustice of this charge
reduced Corporal MacBean to the
dumb silence of utter establishment.
You are unkind, nurth." piped
Chubby's little voice. An you told
me that Corporal MacBean was so
brave an good only just now when
Private Doolan hollered."
Hold your tongue, miss, and come
along O. me at once!" cried Miss
Sloane, blushing furiously and Selling

you that no good'l come of you always

soldiers, learning their bad manners
and their impotence? | wish you a

Bean" she added. And I'll trouble
you not to go asking sneaking ques-
tons of a poor little innocent child
about people who don't want to have
anything TO do with the likes OF you!
A corporal, indeed"
Janet snorted Indignantly as she
disappeared down the other slope OF
the rampant. And Corporal MacBean
sat down again in despair, for he did
not understand women. One thing, he
decided, he must distinguish himself
con that he might have an opportun-
ity OF asking Miss Sloane t share his
lot As a sergeant.
The opportunity came n few nights
afterward. A half hour or so before
dawn three shots rang out. Then a
sentry was found lying curled up on

his horse upon his launches and
turned again. Two men lay on the
ground very still, and a small voice
cried from a neighboring bowlder: Go

The other two men had dismounted
and were crouching behind a bowlder,
which quickly sent forth two Jets of
