would, they could never persuade her
to talk. She was allowed to wander
about the buildings, along the halls to
the girls rooms, and no midnight feast
was considered complete without some
of her mullins.
Late on a winters afternoon, after
she had sold all her mullins, one of the
girls saw her coming out Of Mary's
room. The girls wondered at this,
knowing that Mary was in another
building going over some German COM
position. With basket on her arm
the woman wandered to the campus
with her usual slow, uncertain step,
and, sitting down by tree, unfolded
with tender fingers a worn silk muff1er.
Some of the girls who were watching
her recognized this as one Mary had
worn Oh snowy days. With trembling
fingers the woman caressed the silk,
and, folding it, put it in her bosom
again. One girl then went up and spoke
to her, and it was but short time
before little group gathered. 81 saw
her come from Mary's ROOM said one,

Just then Mary came across the cam
pus, and, seeing the girls, went toward
them. AS she came up to them the
woman looked up appealingly, nervous

down her cheeks.
After the girls had told that they had
suspected the woman Of stealing the
scarf, Mary spoke up. Girls, she said.

Mary stayed through the college
year. She was graduated with high
honors and was voted to be one of the

call.) Of course she understood that
if it hadn't been for Jessie none of
the cadets would have taken the
slightest notice of her, a mere chit,
with three years of school still ahead
of her. But all the same it was some
thing to live over and over again, and
dream of over and over again, and the
seashore seemed very stupid after the
Point. Next year-next June-when
Marshall graduated Jessie was to go
and see that wonderful spot, and go
she did with Pappoose, too, and though
it was all as beautiful as Pappoose
had described, and the scene and the
music and the parades and all were
splendid, there was no deliriously
lovely hop, for in those days there
could be no dancing in the midst of
examinations. There was only the one
great ball given by the second to the
graduating class, and Marshall had so
many, many older girls to dance with
and say good-by to he had only time for
a few words with his sister and her
shy, silent little friend with the big
brown eyes to whom he had been so
kind the previous summer, when there
were three hops a week and not so
many hoppers in long dresses. Still,
Marshall had one dance with each, and
introduced nice boys from the lower
classes, and it was all very well, only
not what Pappoose had painted, and
Jessie couldn't help thinking and say
ing it might all have been SO much
sweeter. if it hadn't been for that odious
Miss Brockway, about whom Marshall
lowered altogether too much, but, like
the little Indian the girls sometimes
said she was, Pappoose looked on and
said nothing.
All the same, Mr.. Dean had had a
glorious graduation summer of it,
though Jessie saw too little of him,
and Pappoose nothing at all after the
breaking of the class. In September
the girls returned to school, friends
as close as ever, even though little
cloud overshadowed the hitherto I'M
broken condolences, and Marshall
joined, the cavalry, as old Folsom had
suggested, and took to the saddle, the
as though native and to the manner
born. They were building the Union
Pacific then, and he and his troop,
with dozens of others scattered along
the line, were busy scouting the neigh
borhood, guarding the surveyors, the
engineers, and finally the track-layers,
for the jealous red men swarmed in
myriads all along the way, lacking
only unanimity, organization and lead
ership to enable them to defeat the
enterprise. And then when the whist
ling engines passed the forks of the
Platte and began to climb up the long
slope Of the Rockies to Cheyenne and
Sherman Pass, the trouble and disaf
lection spread to tribes far more nu-
merous and powerful further to the
north and northwest; and there rose
above the hordes of warriors a chief
