CHAPTER XIV.

Another day Dean and Troop Cwere held in camp awaiting orders for spe- cial service, and no orders came. "OId Pecksniff' had an eye for pretty girls, trait by no means rare in sol diers old or young, and prettier girls than Pappoose or Jessie he had never met. Mrs. Stevens was accordingly bidden to invite them to luncheon that very day, and De an and Loomis were of the party, as were other young people of the post. and, despite the rising war clouGs in the north and the recent un- pleasantness at Emory and an odd manner indicative of suppressed ex- citernent on part of both Dean and Loomis, a very joyous time they had until the damsels had to drive home to dress for dinner. Folsom had named six as the hour. Burleigh, Newhall and the two bcys were mentioned as his guests. Burleigh accepted for self and partner, LooInis for himself, with ment al reservation. Dean at once had begged to be excused. After the morn -ing's sdisappearance of Burleigh and "Surly," as Miss Folsom promptly named the pair, Marshall had ridden into Gate City at the side of the Fol som carriage, and was welcomed by the old trader himself, who looked pained when told he could not attend the dinner. "Surely Col. Stevens will let you off" said Folsom, but that ob- viously was not theTesson.
 "I'm the only officer with my troop" said Dean, 4and so cannot ask

sat young officer of the infantry who, vastly rejoicing that Dean could Il ot go, had laughingly possessed himself of the vacant place, and to him Miss Fol som had to talk. But they parted from their escorts at the gate and hastened within doors. Just as Elinor expected, papa had not come home. It was near ly six when she saw him striding slow ly and thoughtfully up the road and she met him at the gate.
 Tell me what has happened, daddy" was her quiet greeting, as she linked her hands over his burly arm, and look ing into her uplifted. thoughtful eyes, so full of intelligence and deep affec- tion, he bent and kissed her cheek.
 By love, daughter, believe it's the best thing I can do. Come into the library"
 That night the moon beamed bright ly down on the wide-spreading valley, glinting on the peaks, still snow-tippad, far in the southern sky, and softening the rugged faces of the nearer range, black with their clustering beard of spruce and pine. The band played sweetly on the broad parade until after the tattoo drums had echoed over the plains and the garrison belles strolled aimlessly in the eliin light-all nature so lavishly inviting, yet so little val ued now that nearly every man was gone. Out in the camp of C troop men were fitting swiftly to and fro, horses were starting and stamping at the picket ropes, eager eyes and tilted ears inquiring the cause of all this stir and hustle among the tents. In front of the canvas home of the young com mander a grave-faced group had gath cred, two gentle girls among them, one with tear-dimmed eyes. Old Folsom stood apart in murmured conference with Griggs, the sutler. The regi- mental quartermaster was deep in con- sultation with Dean, the two officers pacing slowly up and down. One or two young people from the garrison had spent few minutes earlier in the evening striving to be interesting to the girls; but Jessie's fearful eyes and Miss Folsom's grave manner proved hint sufficient to induce them to with draw, each bidding Dean good night, safe journey and speedy return, and the hand-clasps were kind and cordial. The colonel himself had paid brief visit to camp, his adjutant in attend- ance, and had given Mir. Dean ten min- utes of talk concerning country Dean knew all about, but that "Pecksnitf' had never seen. Ut is responsibility own l should have expected to see placed on older shoulders" said he, but prudence and-and, let me sug-i gest, cool-headedness-will probably carry you through. You will be ready to start-''4-t s
 Ready now, sir, so far as that's con cerned; but we start at three.
 "Oh, ah-yes, of course--well-ah-- it leaves me practically with no conn mand, but I'll hope to have you back, Mfr. Dean. Good-by" Then as he passed Folsom the. colonel whispered: That's slopoo as good as throwni aMaY."

, came out into the sunshine, and with much deliberation and somewhat os- tentatious calm proceeded to where the orderly waited with the horses.
 You will see--the ladies out to camp, Loomis?" asked Dean. ''I must gallop on ahead.''
 "Ay, ny, go on, I reckon" s.
 But on this scene there suddenly appeared a third party, in the par tial guise of an officer and the grip of Bacchus. Lurching down the office steps, with flushed face and bloodshot eyes, came Capt. New hall.
 "GenI'm'n,'' said he, thickly, "le'm Introduce m'self. Haven't tn honor y'r 'quaint's. I'm Cam New (hic)1l.

For an instant the two young officers gazed at him in contempt, then turned abruptly away.
 Good Lord, Marshall" said Loom is, as they cleared the gate, If that's the only appreciation this days work will bring us what will the results be? You served him right, no doubt, but" and an ominous shake of the head wound up the sentence.
 But or no but" said Dean, tits done now, and I'd do it again.
 There was no dinner party at Fol- som's that evening. At two a messen- ger trotted out to the post with a note for Miss Folsom to apprise her of the fact, and without a word or change of color she put it into her pocket The garrison girls were bent on having them spend the afternoon, but presently Miss Folsom found a moment in which to signal to Jess, and at three they were driving home.
 "You will surely come out this evening and hear the music and have a dance," were the parting saluta- tions, as, with sl1illful hands, the young girl took up the reins.

 "Please come, Marshall" pleaded Jessie; but he shook his head.
 T must be at camp this evening, sister mine. We go to stables in an hour. You will come back, Loomis ?''
 "As soon as I've seen" and a sig nificant nod supplied the ellipsis.
 Something ominous was in the wind and both girls knew it. Loomis, usual ly gay and chatty, was oddly silent, as the light, covered wagon sped swiftly homeMard Beside the fair chariot teer
