Folsom only once. The veteran trader
had embarked much of his capital in
business at Gate City, beyond the Rock

to the new frontier town, occasionally
told him he had won a stanch friend in

fall the observation that it was be-
cause of a New York girl who had jilt-
ed him that Dean had for0Sworn So

but men who knew and served with the
young fellow found him an enthusiast
in his profession, Passionately fond of
cavalry life in the open, bold rider, a
keen shot and born hunter. Up with
the dawn day after day, in saddle long
hours, scouting the divides and ridges,
stalking antelope and black-tail deer,
chasing buffalo, he lived a life that
hardened every muscle, bronzed the

He Was Armed.

In the days when highwaymen were
more numerous and successful than
they are at present, it was the common
practice of the natives to travel I'M
armed and submit tamely to robbery.
With foreigners a different sentiment
prevailed. The author of ''Mexicans at
Home tells good story of a German
who travelled in that country. The
gentleman always carried arms, with
every intention of using them rather
than allow himself to be robbed. On
one occasion, when he was travelling by
diligence in the interior-he being the
only passenger armed-the coachTan
suddenly pulled up and announced that
robbers were in sight. The German
prepared to defend the coach, but the
other passengers begged him not to
do so, as this might compromise them.
Consequently, when the robbers came
up he jumped out, and going to the
side of the road, called out that they
were quite welcome to rob all the other
passengers, but that they would please
first take down his portmanteau and
place it beside him. This they did; and
when they had robbed the others, he
ordered thathis portmanteau should be
replaced, which was done. He then
took his seat in the coach, and the jour
ney was resumed.-Youth's Compan-
ion.

said he was glad to have a/talk with
a nerve doctor, for he thought there
was something wrong. Then he told
his tale, says the London Lancet, which
was that he was pestered' by gangs of
gypsies who appeared everywhere. He
said that he hadl just come in from
chasing them in his garden, for wher-
ever he looked out he saw them pulling
up his shrubs said: s'But the shrubs
are not removed; how do you account
for this?" He said: "Well, it is hard
to tell, but I still feel that they do it,
and when I awake in the morning I see
the same gypsies using my toothbrush
and my hairbrushes; jump up, only to
find that they have disappeared" He
admitted the absurdity of the whole
thing, but yet he said he felt it was

leaving he thought he saw his son in
the adjoining office, and told him to
put the things away and to lock the
safe. The son was a hallucination, and
it was only by accident that the son
discovered the state of affairs before
the others arrived next day.

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, 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 go
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 we'll, 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
prairie, the bivouac and buffalo hunt
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 chief
