CHAPTER Ii.

About Fort Clark there were many log
structures, inhabited by laborers, traders
and Indian loafers, who are to be found
hanging on to every military post in the
West. AS may be imagined, these fell
lows-nine tenths of them were men
were neither desirable neighbors nor
agreeable companions.
Runaway sailors, from the whale ships
touching at the Sound; fur-traders, who
snapped bad whisky for good peltry; adj
venturous prospectors, who had come
from California to find gold in the Cas-
cade Range and wound up at Fort Clark
broke! lumbermen out of employment
Indians, haIf-naked as to clothing, but
wearing full dress coats of paint; these
made up force larger than the regular
garrison.
At that time one of the most conspicu-
Gus characters in the territory was
Judge" Loring. The title was given
from the fact that in addition to his du-
ties as factor and superintendent Of the
fur company, he was the man to whom
all the differences Of the people were re-
ferred Being a man Of fine education
and large intelligence, his decisions gaze
general satisfaction, and he was uniye4
sally popular and respected.
Judge Loring was a large, well-preserv-
ed man of fifty. His wife had come with
him to this land, and died within twenty
four hours after presenting him with
daughter, their only child.
An Indian woman took the mothers
place, so far as that was possible; but
being a beautiful, healthy child, Florence
Loring grew up like a lily surrounded by
sunfowers. Her father was jealousy
watchful of her, giving much time to her
education. But as she neared woman
hood he felt that he must part with her,
and send her to q place where she could
have greater educational advantages than
the wilderness afforded.
In her fourteenth year she was an ac
complished rider, and could handle an oaI
as we'll as any youth on the Sound. She
could speak half a dozen Indian dialects
and conversed With the French voyageurs
in their own language. With all this she
was a slender, graceful, childlike crea
ture, whom fattery could not spoil noI
association make rude.
Florence Loring was the idol of the
hunters, and the Indians looked up to
her with a feeling akin to idolatry. The
| sun of the summer climate was i'll her
hair, and the blue depths of the sky
concentrated in her eyes The tint OF
the seashell was on her cheeks, and the
pearls between her ruby translucent lips,

There is very little difference be-
tween a pound and guinea only Il
shilling, and yet keen business man
insists that the shilling shall be consid-
cred. After Thackeray's series of lee
lures on the -Four Georges had been
delivered in London, Willert Bea1e says
that he called upon the novelist, in
Onslow square, with a check for two
hundred and fifty pounds.
whats this, w. By cried Thack-
cray, reading the check. Pounds? Our
agreement says guineas, and guineas it
must be-
You are aware that the lectures so
far have involved very heavy losses"
said Beale, apologetically.
That's not my affair" said Thack-
cray. II don't know what occult means
you have to protect yourself from loss.
Guineas, w. B.. Guineas it must be,
and nothing less. l must have the shil-
lings."
And the shillings were sent him i'm
mediately.

Commercia1 Isolation.

In an article deprecating the growing
conviction in the South that the same
kind of protection which has built up
the manufactures and wealth of the
world would be also good for that sec
ton of our country the New York
Times warns them that they lin so
doing lose sight of the fact that the
logical result of protection would be
commercial isolation
Logic is defined as the science of the
distinction of true from false reason
ing. II the result of the Dingley tariff
has effecSed the commercial isolation or
this country the logical result OF de-
veloping the manufactures and wealth
of the South might be it's commercial
isolation. But the article in question is
headed Increasing Exports from the
South but the increase as shown has
occurred since the Dingley tariff went
into effect, and we all have been as
sured that if we don't buy we can't
sell
The fact is there is no logic in, about
nor anywhere near the assertion that
protection leads to commercial isola-
ton The editor of the Times has ap-
parently mistaken Mr.. Gladstone,s ad-
vice that we grow more cheap cotton
and wheat for logic.

he considered the most gloomy exile i'm
aginable.
The recruits were sent out in charge OF
Lieut.. Sheridan, afterwards distinguished
as a general officer. AS class, they
were not desirable companions; for in
that day the ranks of the regular army
were not filled with picked men.
1t is Just to say that few of them
were bright, romantic and well educated;
and these, with two exceptions, had en-
tered the service when recovering from
the effects of a prolonged dissipation.
These exceptions were Colin Morton ana
young Englishman named Robert
Bracebridge The latter was about Col
ms age, and splendid specimen of ply
steal manhood
Robert Bracebridge, though the soul of
candoE never spoke Of his own past, nor
inquired into that of Colin Morton, for
whom, from the start, he showed the
warmest attachment.
The friendship and constant companion
ship of these two men subjected them to
the ridicule Of their rude companions;
but, satisfied with each ether, they bore
all comments with great good nature. Be
fore the long march had ended at Fort
Clark they were great favorites with otli-
GERS and men.
AS every old settler in Oregon and
Washington Territory will remember,
Fort Clark was on a little peninsula that
shot into a picturesque arm of the Sound
some forty miles north of the present
beautiful town of Seattle. Timber being
abundant at this point, and sawmills I'M
known, the buildings were Of huge logs,
and the stumps from which they had
been cut marked every perch of the clear
ing with unsightly monuments.

COLIN MORT ON ENLISTS.

Still, the location had unsurpassed at
fractions. The deep, blue waters of the
bay; the picturesque headlands; the vast
seas of ever green forests; the neighbor-
ing fresh water lakes; and the towering
lines of the Cascade Mountains to the
east, formed succession of ever varying
and ever delightful pictures that were
intensely novel and attractive to all with
a love of Natures best work in their
hearts.
Lieut.. Sheridan. after turning over the
recruits to Capt. Phelps, the commandant
at Fort Clark. went to Fort Van Couver
on the Columbia river. There he sub
seQuently distinguished himself in bat
tie with the Indians: but. before leaving
he called the captains attention to re-
cruits Morton and Bracebridge
They are evidently gentlemen by birth
and education" he said, land they will
be the better soldiers for it,
From the first these young men deter
mined to do their whole duty; and though
much of their work was onerous. and, at
times, servile, they never complained, but
obeyed every order promptly, and with
that cheerfulness that is ever so delight
full in a subordinate and pleasant to Il
commander.
Their conduct attracted the attention
of Capt. Phelps, and after they had been
at the fort about month. he one day
sent an orderly to summon them to his
headquarters. The young men entered his
presence and stood uncovered to learn
his wishes.
My men" said the captain, THE praise
Of Lieut.. Sheridan has caused me to
watch your actions with more than ordi-
nary interest, and am happy to say that
so far your conduct warrants the praise
of my friend"
The young soldiers bowed in acknow-
edgment of the compliment

The census office has issued a bulletin
concerning the urban population Of the
country. 1t shows that 2S,411,699 pcO-
pie in the United States live in cities and
towns Of over 1000 population. This is
37.3 per cent Of the entire population,
gain of almost per cent since the cen
sus Of 1890, when the percentage was
500.
Compared with the returns of 1880 the
report shows a gain in the urban popula-
ton Of the country of more than third
in percentage and Of considerably more
than double in actual numbers.
There were in 1880, $50 places of more
than 1000 persons each, with an aggre-
gate population of 12,936,1 or 25S
per cent of tho then population.
About one-half of the urban population
of 1900 was contained in cities of over
100000 persons. There were thirty
eight of those cities, with a combined
population of Il, POS, BAT. There are now

shan sixty at the time of this second
marriage. his son, naturally enough, did
a0t favor it. But his opposition vanished
when he found his father so determined
as to make the consunmation essential

Colin Morton treated the woman who
had taken his mothers place in his faith

CHAPTER I.


The place is called Fort CLARK"
though there is no fort there, at this time,
and hardly the remnant of a ruin of its
ence military structures. A generation
ago, Fort Clark stood on one Of the arms
eff Puget Sound that runs east to the
snOw-capped Cascade Range.
Within the memory of men not yet old,
Washington TerritOry-then the extreme
northwestern section Of our vast domain
was in the hands of wild Indian tribes;
and while now and then whale ships from
the Northern Pacific came to anchor in
the fine natural harbOrs, the only white
men of whom the natives knew anything
were the hunters and trappers in the en-
ploy Of the great fur companies, and the
small bodies of troops in the scattered
forts.
Officers and soldiers looked upon a res
fdence in that territory as sort of exile.
The little garrisOns were wholly depen-
dent on themselves for society and
amusements; and when the officers and
men did not happen to be congenial, mis-
cry, heart burning, and bad blood were
the consequences.
When the very best society in New
York City heard that Colin Morton had
enlisted as a private soldier, it was pro-
foundly moved and greatly shocked at
such conduct on the part Of one Of its
most brilliant young ornaments.
Only to think" said Il lady leader of
fashion, here is Colin Morton, young,
wonderfully handsome, finely educated,
and with the certainty of great wealth
when his father dies, gone off and en-
listed as a common soldier! Why, it is
positively too shocking to think about
without becoming indignant His friends
should interfere and have him sent to a
unatic asylum without delayn

ton, and he trembled and turned pale: for
Mai. Germon was his step-mother cous-
in and a nephew of Lawyer Herrod.
Yes Do you know him?' asked the
captain, puzzled at the young man evil

HE was one of the groomsmen when
my father mG FRIED Miss Herrod, the ma
jor's cousin replied Colin.
''Why, he should befriend you for that
very reason said the captain.

proach."

you have begun and l will see you

The captain led the young sergeants IN
to another apartment, where they were
introduced to Mrs. Phelps, charming
young lady with beautiful baby in her
arms.
After this the young men went to their
quarters, whittier the news of their pro-
motion had preceded them, and where
they were congratula ted with the hearth
ness that is peculiar to soldiers.
