the light, covered wagon sped swiftly
homeward. Beside the fair charioteer
sat young officer of the infantry who,
vastly rejoicing that Dean could not 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 FASTENED
within doors. just as Elinor expected,
papa had not come home. 1t 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-
ton. he bent and kissed her cheek.
"By Joye, daughter, believe it's the
best thing 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-tipprd,
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 bellies strolled
aimlessly in the elfn hght-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-
slItation with Dean, the two officers
pacing slowly up and down. One or
two young people from the garrison
had spent a few minutes earlier in the
evening striving to be interesting TO
the girls; but Jessie's fearful l8es 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 Mr.. Dean ten min
utes of talk concerning a country Dean
knew all about, but that "Pecksniff
had never Reen. sit is a responsibility
own l should have expected to see
placed oE older shoulders" said he,
but prudence and-and, let me sug-
gest, cool-headedness-will probably
carry you through. You will be ready
to start"
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 com
mand, but I'll hope to have you back,
Mr.. Dean. Good-by." Then as he
passed Folsom the colonel whispered:
That's $4,000 as good as thrown
away"
'Ten thousand dollars!" answered
the trader in reply. what do you
mean?''
"That's what those boys are to run
the gantlet with. My-ah-protests
are entirely unavailing."
For a moment Folsom stood there
dumb. do you mean, he finally cried,
''that-that it's beyond Frayne that
they're going-that it's money they're
to take?''
Hush! Certainly, but it mustn't be
known. Every road agent in Wyoming
would be out, and every Indian from
the Platte to Hudson bay would be on
the watch. He's to take ten men and
slip through. The money comes out

Inc colonel turned away, and.
reckoning to his staff officer to join
him, stumped onward to the garrison.
The prolonged wall of the bugle aid
ed by the rising night wind, sent the
solemn strains of taps sailing down
the dimly-lighted valley. and with
staring eyes old Folsom stood gazing
after the departing officers, then
whiTled about toward the tents. There
in front of Dean stood Pappoose, her
hands clasped tightly over the hilt of
the saber the striker" had leaned
against the lid of the mess chest but
a moment before, her lovely face smil-
ing up into the owners.

won't you?" she was blithely saying.

the old trader to himself, 'are you the

most internal scoundrel?"

ty thousand. say, why, Burleigh's
bank account was at his service, etc.
1t all sounded large and liberal, and
Folsom, whose lot for years had been
cast with a somewhat threadbare ar
ray of people, content with little,
impecunious but honest, wondered
what manner of martial man this
was. Burleigh did not loudly boast
of his wealth and influence, but i'm
pressed in some ponderous way his
hearers with a sense of both. Yet.
ever since that run to Warriors Gap,
change had come over Burleigh. He
talked more of mines and money and
showed less, and now, only yesterday,
when the old mans heart had mel
lowed to him because he had first held
him wholly to blame for Deans ar
rest and later found him pleading for
the young fellows release, a strange
thing had happened. Burleigh con-
fided to him that he had a simply fab
ulOus opportunity chance to buy
out mine that experts secretly told
him was what years later he would
have called a bonanza" but that in
the late sixties was locally known
as Shanghai" twenty-five thou.
sand dollars would do the trick, but
his money was tied up. Would Fol-
som go in with him, put up twelve
thousand five hundred, and Burleigh
would do the rest? Folsom had been
bitten by two mines that yielded only
rattlesnakea, and he couldn't be
lured. Then. said Burleigh, wouldn't
Folsom go on his note, so that he
could borrow at the bank? Folsom
seldom went on anybody's note 1t
was as bad as mining. He begged off,
and left Burleigh disappointed, but
not disconnected. 81 can raise it
without trouble said he, ''but it may
take forty-eight hours to get the
cash here, and l thought you would
be glad TO be let in on the ground

to excuse me-" And so Burleigh.

off to the fort, where Newhan asked
for Griggs and was importunate, nor

LAUGHED DURING SERVICE.
Dublin Congregation Had a Merry
Time at the Minister'S
HumOr.
ITO Be Continued.

Religious services in Ireland are not
always solemn, according to the state
ment of an English clergyman. "The
only time ] ever heard congregation
laugh unrestrainedly during the reg
ular services in a cathedral" said he,
was back in the SOS, when l was a
resident of dear. dirty Dublin. On one
Sunday morning the archbishop of
Cork preached He was a splendid
man, an Irishman to the backbone,
and possessed of as fine a brogue as
ever distinguished a son of Erin. His
congregation was made up of the very
essence of fashion in Dublin, which in
those days was one of the greatest so
cial centers in the world. Notorious
~, people were living beyond their
means, for the income from the land
ed estates of Ireland had taken a big
tumble. But that made no difference,
and good dressing went as a matter
of course, and was one of the smallest
of the extravagances. The archbishop
gance, and spoke particularly of over
dressing as a prerequisite to attend
ance at church. His sermon was a bit
ter arraigament of the sin of debt and
the wickedness of setting the heart
on fashion and dress. He attacked
the overdressed women, and wound up
this particular reference this way:
"'Now, supposin' every one of We
every one, man and woman, should
stand up in this church, take off the
clothes We have not paid for, just
walkin' out with only the things on
your backs We have paid fora pEet-
ty lookin' lot of scarecrows ye'd be-
''There was pause until the real
significance of the suggestion had
percolated through the members of
his congregation, then some one snick-
cred. Everyone was picturing to him
and herself the real scene that would
occur should the archbishop's idea be
carried into effect, while wife looked
at husband and members of each fam
lily nudged one another. The ludi-
crous side was irresistible, and the
laugh was general"

QUESTION AND PROPHECY.

MaideI with the soft brown eyes.
DO lifs's songs outweigh its signs?
Hast tnou shrined life's better part
In the chancels of thy heart?
Have life's sweetest, noblest psalms
Gained thee with their boons and balms?
In the rosary of years
Have the beads been pearly tears,
Or have sadder things than these
Caused the plants when life should please?
Let thy eyes their wells unroI
That my glance may scan thy soul
In their mystic depths see
Things that were and are to be;
Sorrow with its gruesome touch
Hath not married thy spirit much,
Yet thy path in coming days
May not pass through flowery ways.
Gird myself for ills of earth
Life hath means as we'll as mirth-
For each JOY a grief is born.
Dark night comes as oft as morn;
BE thou ready, for some years
Sow in toll to harvest tears.
Yet for thee the sun shall shine,
Ills touch lightly thee and thine:
Skies which arch in blue above
Cor thy eyes show stars of love;
Therefore be thou not afraid,
lissome little brown-eyed maid.
There await such sprites as thee
Ills 70 mortal maid may fee,
But heavens gold can gild the guile
Helpless to resist thy smile
Maiden with the soft brown eyes.
Many joy before thee lies
If thou be but truly wise.
