College Reception.

The Y. w. G.. A. and the Y. M. G..
A. societies of the College gave very
pleasant reception last evening to the
new students of the College and Acad
emy.
To aid in getting acquainted pictures
of apples were cut from paper and each
apple bore letter and number. Those
having apples bearing the same num-
ber sorted themselves from the crowd
and after comparing the letters on the
apple spelled out the name of an aD.
pie. The letters were then made the
beginning of line of poetry and all
the lines were made to rhyme. The
poems which were then produced were
recited to the audience.
By the time the poems were written
and read the new students felt much at
home. Ice cream and cake were
served. There were about ninety pres
ent.
The company then spent some time
talking and chatting with one another
and then broke up.
The receptions by the Christian AS
sociations is one of the pleasantest
functions of the whole year.

that to the annihilation of the attack

Dean wondered Folsom had not looked

A mile nearer the butte and, glanc-

Something told him he would find the
combatants beyond-that dead or
alive, Hal Folsom would be there
awaiting him. A glance at the com
manding heights and the ridge that
connected it with the tumbling, wood
ed hills to the north, convinced him
that at that moment some of the foe
were lurking there, watching the
westward valley, and by this time
they knew full well of the coming of
the cavalry to the rescue. By this
time, more than likely, they were

done. Surely not more than a dozen
were in the band, else that courier
could never have hoped to get in,
wounded as he was. The Indians were
too few in number to dare follow to
the ranch, guarded as, by almost God
given luck, it happened to be through
the unlooked-for presence of the
troops. No, it was a small band,
though daring one. It's lookout had
surely warned it by this time of his
coming, and by this time, too, all
save one or two who rode the fieetest
ponies and fingered probably for
parting shot at the foremost of the
chase, had scampered away behind
the curtain of that ridge. Therefore,
in long curve, never checking his
magnificent stride, Dean guided his

A WINDOW BOOKCASE.
Ornamental Piece of Furniture That
Can he Made at the Expense of
Very Little Money.

A window bookcase and writing
desk is a novel and useful piece of
furniture for almost any room, and
while it may seem an odd idea for
the establishment of Il window, its
adaptability can readily be appre-
ciated from a glance at the illustra-
ton, which was drawn from case
actually made and in use.
This is a piece of furniture that
any carpenter can make from clear
pine or white wood at nominal cost,
and it may be painted or stained and
vanished as a matter of choice.
An inexpensive one can be con-
structed from boxes and boards with
matched edges, a few feet of cornice
molding. some hardware, and with
the tools to be found in most any
home.
Two boxes of equal size are select
ed for the base, anG to the open sides

BABY'S CREEPING RUG.
1t Should BE Made of Strong Material
and as Large as the Nursery
VIII Permit.

The creeping rug has quite taken
the place of the creeping bag for the
baby, as the former allows more free
dom to the little one, who is less
hampered than by the clumsy bag
gathered about its chubby knees.
For the creeping rug some strong,
firm material should be used. Canton
dannel is sometimes employed. 1t
should be doubled and the edges
bound with bright braid or finished
with buttonhole stitching in colored
wool. Denim is even more desirable
than the flannel, as, having a smooth
er surface, the child can creep over
it more easily and not drag it up into
punches.
The rug is generally bordered with
a procession of animals, cut from a
contrasting material-cioth, linen or
cotton, and appliqued near the outer
edge of the rug. Instead of making
the animals from single bright color
of cloth, it is better to have the rug
of bright hue and the animals, as
far as possible, in natural colors. An
effective rug is made of blue denim,
with "A border of black cats in all pos
sible attitudes and antics.
AS to size, the rug should be as
large as the nursery will permit. Too
small rug is practically worthless,
because the baby is never on it.-N.

CHAPTER VII.

Lieut.. Deans orders required that
he should march his troop without un-
necessary delay to Fort Emory, there
to take station relieving troop f, or
dered to change to Frayne, which
meant, in so many words, to take the
field. Capt. Brooks, still wrestling with
the fever, had retired to his quarters
at the old frontier fort that stood so
dong on the bluffs overlooking the fords
of the Platte. The surgeon said he
must remain in bed at least week
so meantime the troop packed up,
sent its wagons ahead over the range,
bade God speed to L as it passed
through Ell route to the front, ex-
changed a volley of chaff and chewing
tobacco over the parting game Of

far enough to be an easy prey for
the lurking foe. Then, too, it occurred
to him that he must not leave the
ranch unprotected. Already he was
within long rifle range of the height;
already probably some beady eye was
glancing through the sights, and the
deadly tube was covering him as he
came bounding on. Three hundred
yards more and his life probably
wouldn't be worth a dollar in con.
federate money, and wisely the young
leader began to draw rein, and, turn.

companion, laboring along one hun.

him. Presently the trooper came

ride back, Wegner, and tell the
sergeant to take ten men around that
side-the south side of the bluff" and
he pointed with his hand; "the rest to
come straight to me-"
Oh, well was it for Dean that he
checked his speed, and as the young
dragoon went sputtering back, that
he himself drew rein and waited for
the coming of his men. Suddenly from
far out along the ridge in front, from
the very crest, there leaped a jet or
two of fire and smoke. Two little
spurts of dust and turf flew up from
the prairie sod dozen yards in front,
a rifle bullet went singing off through
the sunny air, Rabb, his handsome
bay, paved the ground and switched
about, and up on the crest, riding
boldly in full view, two 1.-THE, naked,
painted warriors, war bonnets trailing
over their ponies groups, yelling shrill
insult and derision, went tearing away
northward, one CT them pau3ing long

the foremost sergeant as he came up
to join his chief. They've got one,
anyhow"
Come on, then. and We'll get it

nearly thirty troopers stringing out
behind them, the two launched out in
chase.

An uprising was imminent, and the
Indians had already killed the govern

quested by the president to go to
Leech Lake and negotiate with the In
dians. ut was in the dead of winter,
the thermometer below zero, and the
snow deep. 1t was a journey of rs
miles through the forest, and it took

Falmouth, their chief, made violent
speech, to which tsle bishop replied
briefly, as follows: Il snail tell YOU

those cattle, you struck the Great
Father in the face. When you stole
those goods, you ceuRmitted crime.

Great Father will do, He has not told
me. If he does what he ought to do,
he will arrest those who have COM
mitted this crime, if it takes 10000

"As l expected" the bishop relates,
"the chief was very angry. and,
springing to his feet, began to talk

down. When he paused, | said quiet
ly: Falmouth, are you talking, or

TAKE HEART.

Though fearful storms have swept in
wrath
About thy toilsome, rugged path,
And thou hast ofttimes been cast down
And sore dismayed by Fortunes frown.
Faint not, but bravely bear thy part,
o fellow man; once moro take heart.
The storm is followed by the calm,
And winter gales by airs of balm.
Dark night gives place to sun-bright day;
Let Hope stiIl c ger thee on thy way,
Beyond the cloud still shines the sun;
Press on until thy work is done.
Perchance thou many times hast failed.
Some weakness over thee prevailed,
And thou hast faltered in the strife
And sadly rued thy blighted life;
Though great thy grief and keen thy
pain
o weary one, take heart again!
Dwell not upon thy mournful past.
Arise, and for thy right stand fast;
Be strong and brave fold not thy hands.
For thee still flows life's golden sands;
To better things sweet voices call
But God in love rules over all.

across the stream. And then while
strong arms lifted and bore the wound
ed herdsman to the porch, Dean turned
to the wailing mistress, who, white
faced and terror-stricken, was wiring
ing her hands and moaning and run
ming wildly up and down the walk and
calling for some one to Sc and save
her husband. Dean almost bore her to
a chair and bade her fear nothing. He
and his men would lose not a moment.
On the floor at her feet lay the little
card photograph, and Dean, hardly
thinking what he did, stopped, picked
it up and placed it in the pocket of his
hunting shirt, just as the trumpeter
on his plunging gray reached the gate,
Deans big, handsome charger trottng
swiftly alongside. In an instant the
lieutenant was in saddle, in another
second trooper galloped up with his
belt and carb.ne. Already the men
were leading into line across the
stream, and, bidding the trumpeter tell
Sergt. Shaughnessy to follow at speed
the young officer struck spur to his
horse and, carbine in hand, a single
trooper at his heels, away he darted
down the valley. c troop, splashing
through the ford moment later, took
the direct road past the stoclkade of
the corral, disappeared from sight a
moment behind that wooden fortifica-
tion and, when next it hove in view, it
was galloPing front into line far down
the Laramie, then once more vanished
behind its curtain of dust.
1.-TWO miles out there under the
butte" was the only Indication the
young officer had of the scene of the
fight, for fight he knew it must be,
and even as he went bounding down
the valley he recalled the story of the
Indian girl, the threats of Burning
Star, the vowed vengeance of her
brothers. Could it be that, taking ad-
vantage of this raid of Red Cloud, far
from all the reservations, far from
possibility of detection by count of pry-
ing agents, the three had induced a
gang of daring, devil-may-care young
warriors TO slip away from the Big
Horn with them and, riding stealthily
away from the beaten trails. to ford
the Platte beyond the ken of watch
full eyes at Fetterman and sneak
through the mountain range to the
beautiful, fertile valley beyond, and
there lie in wait for Hal Folsom or for
those he loved? What was to prevent? :?

his ranch. They had fished and sport
ed all about it in boy days-days when
the soldiers and the Sioux were all
