the library. It was Folsom's custom, when possible thing, to take brief nap after the midday meal, and Einor portunity now, if BurlciGh would only go, but Burleigh wouldn't. In monot- onous monologue his voice came float ing up to the second floor, drowsy, unbroken in it's soporifc flow, and the girls themselves, after the mornings s drive in the clear, bracing air, felt as though forty winks would be a bless ing. Could it be that Burleigh lin gered on in hopes of their reappear- ance below? Might it not be that if relief came not speedily Papa Fol som would yield to the spell and fall asleep in his easy-chair? Was it not Miss FolsoE:s duty to descend and take the burden of entertainment off those elder shoulders? These thoughts oppressed the girl, and, starting up, she cried:
 Its simply wicked of me staying here and letting poor papa be bored to death. Do come down, Jess, dear, unless you're too dreadfully sleepy. He acts just as though he intended never. to 90"
 And Jess promised reluctantly to come down in ten minutes, if he didn't leave; but she hated him, and had hated him ever since he spoke so of Marshall in the car three days before.
 The upper hall had been quite dark when Miss Folsom went up to inquire how Mrs. Fletcher was, just afte- luncheon. The door to her little room was tightly closed. The blinds in all the other rooms aloft were drawn against the glare of the sunshine in the cloudless atmosphere, yet now, as PaPpoose stepped suddenly out upon the 1anding, she was surprised to see that the upper floor was much lighter than when she went up half an hour earlier. The maid had not gone thith- CT from the kitcs en, and Mrs. Fletch- CT wished to doze. Who, then, could hase opened both blind and door and let in that flood of light? Impulsive- ly the active girl flew up the. winding

coming hands. It was moment De- fore they could let Ned tell his story, and than it came by jerks.
 ''We left there early yesterday morning, mum. They're all well now, 'cept Jake, and he'll come out all right, but we had a close call. A war party of Sioux jumped us "Wednesday afternoon, and they'd got away with us but for Eeut. Dean and his troop. They come along just in time"
 "Ned!" gaEped Elinor, you don't mean they attacked the ranch?"
 "Ne'ns. We was down the Laramie rounding up herses. There was dozen bucks in the party. It's tho first time they've come across in year that l know of, and they won't be apt to try it again. We shot two of 'sm and the cavalry drove 'em g running fight, so hard that thay had to leave one of their wounded behind them. He died in minute. It was-' and then Ned Lannion gulped and stumbled and chokcd in embarrass- ment. ~-'7
 "WEo was it?' demanded MT. Fol som, his rugged face pale and twitch- ing, his eyes full of anxiety.
 "Chasl-a, sir. You know.'
 Folsom gripped him by the shoul der. And Burning Star-did you see him? Was he there?"
 "Yes, sir; but those boys of Lieut.. Deans gave them a lickin' they'll never forget. The ranch is safe as ii it was here in Gate City, only Hal he couldn't come himself, and he knowcd you'd be anxious for full particulars, Ia ;,, xx,tt1 1,.1r They're out at the fort now.'
 "Jessie!" cried Elinor, in delight that overmastered the emotion with which she had listened to the tale of her brother srecent peril. "MarshalTs here -2lmost home. It's just as we said, Jess. Do come down. He was there just in time to save my brothers life to drive the Indians back to the river. Come quiclk-I want to hug you!" And her dark eyes fla shing with joy and excitement danced full upon the bulky form of the major, slowly issuing from the parlor door, then beyond as she went bounding by him, all eagerness to clasp her bonny friend in her arms and shower her with congratulations. And so it happened that both the girls were at the rear of the hall entwined in each others arms at the foot of the stairs when the ranchman an- swcred Folsom's next question, and then broke out with the abrupt an- nouncement: 1T never see a young of fcer handle his men better. We'd all been in hell by this time if it wasn't for him; yet, by God, sir, the moment he got into the post they clapped him in arrest"

that were in circulation, and most un- justly, doubtless, at-er-his expense"
 ''Who put them in circulation, Maj. Rurleigh?" asked Pappoose, her brown eyes studying his face as unfiinchingly as had her fathers gaze a moment be- fore.
 "Thaa, my dear young lady Ter cannot surmise. They are mostly inn aginative, dare say.'
 But Miss Folsom looked unmollifieo, Miss Dean agitated, and Burleigh him. self had many a reason for feeling ill at ease. Just at the time of all others when he most desired to stand on good terms with the wsll-to-do old trader and his charming daughter he found himself the object of distrust. He was thinking hard and far from hopefully as 9 moment later he hastened down the street.
 'Ten them to send up my buggy, quick" were his orders as he stepped within his office doorway. Then low ering his voice: Has Capt. Newhall returned?" he asked the chief clerk.
 "The captain was here, sir. Left word he needed to take the first train freight or construction, it made no difference-to Cheyenne and expected to find letter or package from you, and there's two telegrams in from de- partment headquarters on your desk. sir"
 The major turned thither with sol emn face, and read them both, his back to his subordinate, his face to the light, and growing grayer every mo- ment. One was a curt notification that S1C,coo woui.A be needed at once at Warrior Gap to pay contractors and workmen, and directing him to send the amount from the funds in his keep ing. The other read as follows:
 Have all transport ton put in read mess for immediate field service. Every wheel may be needed"
 This he tossed careleSsly aside. Over the first he pondered deeply, his yell lowwhite face growing dark and hag- gard.
 Ten thousand dollars to be sent at once to Warriors Gap! Workmen' s pay! Who could have given such an order? Who would have imagined payment would have to be made before July, when some reasonable amount of work had been done? What could 1aborers do with their, money up there even if they had it? It was preposter- our! It was risky to attempt to send it. But what was infinitely worse for him-it was impossible. The money was practically already gone, but-not to Warrior Gap.

CHAPTER x.

"Threa mortal hours," said Miss Fol som to her fond little school friend and chum that afternoon, have had to sit or stroll with or listen to Mai. Bur- leigh. I never once was able to enjoy the view. What made him hurry us away from the northeast point, doyou supposeT
 Did you notice that, Nell? l did, too, and was so interested in the view. Away up toward Laramie peak l could see something through the glasses that looked like lot of little ants crawling along together. It was just after that just after we looked through the glass, that he marched us round to the other side. The view toward Green river isn't half as pretty.'
 And now he's telling some in terminable story to father over their cigars. What shall we do if he hangs on? Father will have to ask him to drive with us to the fort, and there won't be roon."
 Unless Mrs. Fletcher gives up her seat" said Jessie, demurely.
 Mrs. Fletcher isn't going. A very different person takes her seat to-day, Jess. Father left a note for MT. Loomis at the hotel and he accepted. Now you see why I don't want Maj. Burleigh."
 It was then long after three o'clock. At five they wero to start, and Jessie could hardly curb her impa atience. The mail from Frayne, so said Folsom, would arrive that evening, and then surely there would be news of Mar Lo1 cJirnaH t0 their rooms after the bountiful luncheon served on their return. in order, as Pappcose expressed it, that the gen tlemen might have their cigars in peace. Mrs. Fletcher, after seeing that everything was prepared, had direct ed the servant to say to Mir. Folsom, on the return of the party, that she would prefer not to appear, and would be glad to keep her room, as she did not feel it at all necessary for the housekeePer to meet strangers, and Folsom felt 9 sense of relief. It was so much sweeter not to have any pre- siding genius othar than Pappoose, not that he was forSetful of Mrs. Fletcher's merits and services-Which were great-but it was plain to see that his daughter would have been happier had no such office existed as that created for this deserving and destitute widow. At three Miss Fol som had gone and tapped at the lady's door-her room was in the third story, overlooking the street-and was very civilly assured that Mrs. Fletcher stood in need of nothing, but, being wearied, she would like little sleep. ha aT-a n of tea Yet Elinor felt confident that the voice that replied to her inquiries came neither from the bed nor the lounge, but from the direction of the front window.
 At. three the cigars were smoked out and the host and his guests were in

The recent death of Mrs. Gladstone, widow of the great English states man, recalls the many services which she was able to render to her dis tinguished husband during their we'd ded life of nearly 60 years, says Youths Companion.
 comrade. She had An intelligent in- terest in the questions with which he had to deal, and he relied upon her judgment as well as her sympathy He rarely made an important speech in parliament without her encourag- ing presence in the gallery. She went with him on his political campaigns, and sat beside him on the platform.
 British electors are sometimes lit tie rough in expressing their dissent at political meetings. A character istic story is told of Mrs. Gladstone that on one occasion, when her hus- band had to address a hostile audi ence at an open-air meeting in Green wich, she won the day for him by standing at his side, with simple dig nifty, holding an umbrella over him as he spoke. The men who had gone there to howl down the orator cheered him and his wife.
 Lord Beaconsfeld. MT. Gladstope's lifelong political opponent, owed nearly as much to the sympathy and devotion of his wife as MT. Glad stone owed to his. If the lives of great statesmen were fully written, on their personal as well as on their public side. it would be found, in many cases, that they have been greatly helped by their wives.
 The rule is by no means universal Instances will readily suggest them selves in which wives of statesmen, by want of sympathy or of tact. have marred their husbands careers. It is probably not so difficult to live with . statesman as with men of genius Tn some other fields of activity, but axo do it calls for consideration. sym pathy and large degree of self-ef- facement With these qualities statesman's wife may well share his triumphs, for she has large part n winning them. ..
