poraps face turned red and white and
darkly purple in quick succession. The
farrier had risen to his feet at the
sound Of the soldiers voice, and the
two faced each other in the cozy little
parlor with, for the first time since
they were both recruits, fierce anger
in their eyes. The widow closed the
1oor and began to laugh and chatter.
"How funny, noww she cried. Here's
you two, whom the folks at the post
call the brethren, you're so thick and
such old friends, and you've never met
at my house before. How funny!''
So she Chartered, while her lips were
yet red with honest Fins kiss and
Healy's appeal crumpled in her pocket.
Old hearts are more slow to fame to
either love or anger than those that
are young, but once afire they burn
with the snap and glare Of fury. Healy
heard nothing, Of Mrs. Bells chatter.
His ears were full Of savage hum
ming, like the buzz Of Kaffir impi.
The farrier did not look at her. His
eyes were fixed on the corporars. In
the breasts Of both there blazed the
same primitive passion of jealousy
which maddens at times the stays of

each man for himself, with the thought
Of murdered woman and child to
steel his heart and nerve his hand and
direct his aim. The Indians were not
all EEyeady. Their arms were at hand,
and very quickly they realized that the
white men had, braved even the biz
zard to seek revenge and were upon
them. In tumult of yells and hasty
orders the chiefs sprang to repel the
attack. In moment all was a corner
Of hell-shout and curse and dying
yell, continuous crack of rifle and re-
volver, screech Of squaw, bark of dog
and crash Of falling tepee as some
headlong trooper charged madly into
it. Over it all, round it all, the deadly
wind shrieked and the snow fell I'M
ceasingly.
In the midst of it, right in the center
of the camp, two men came crash to-
gether and in that instant recognized
each other. In neither's mind was even
that charge the uppermost thing. With
sudden mutual curse their rage was
let loose. Healy extended his arm and
fired, not two yards from his old COM
rade. Old Fin, the farri1r, gave ter
rlble scream, and Healy saw him drop.
But even in falling the veteran sought
revenge, and his pistol was discharged.
The corporal felt sting in his side,
the noise all suddenly ceased, and he
also dropped inanimate from his horse.
In little separate room in the post
hospital the old campaigner came out
of the fever, out Of the delirium, weeks
after the fight on the Snake river. The
doctor was with him and a stiffly up
right and martial attendant.
"You've the constitution of a horse,
