Primes and other people at the Palace.
l think l saw you in the supper room.
There was much merriment at your
table. Mrs. Garrison seemed to be the
life of the party. Now, you left your
overcoat with the boy at the cloak
stand? ?"
No, Armstrong, that's the odd part
Of it. l only used the cape that even
ing. The coat was hanging at its usual
place when l returned late, with a
mass of new orders and papers. No!
no! But here, l must get back to the
office, and what wished you to see was
that poor boys letter. What can you
hope with nature like that to deal
with"
Armstrong took the missive held out
to him and slowly read it, the general
studying his face the while. The let
ter bore no clew as to the whereabouts
of the writer. 1t read:
March i, '9S.
1T is six weeks since I repaid all your
loving kindness, brought shame and sor-
row to you and ruin to myself by desert
ing from West Point when my commission
was but a few short months away. In an
hour of intense misery, caused by girl
who had won my very soul. and whose
words and letters made me believe she
would become my wife the month of my
graduation, and who, as now believe, was
then engaged to the man she married in
January, l threw myself away. My one
thought was to find her. and God knows
what beyond.
1T can never be undone. My career is
ended, and can never look you in the face
again. AT first thought should show the
letters, one by one to the man she mar.
ried, and ask him what he thought Of his
wife, but that is too low. hold them be-
cause I have a mad longing to see her
again and heap reproach upon her, but, if
l fail and should l feel at any time that
my end is near, I'm going to send them to
you to read-to see how l was lured, and
then. if you can. to pity and forgive;
'ROLLIN."
Armstrong; firm lips twitched I'M
der his mustache. The general, with
moist eyes, had risen from his chair and
mechanically held forth his hand.
Poor lad!" sighed Armstrong. "Of
course-you know who the girl WASP"
"Oh, of course" and Drayton
shrugged his shoulders.
well, We'll have to CO." and led on to
the misty light without.
over across the way were Tile heao-
quarters tents of a big parade. hope
fully awaiting orders for Manila. To
their left, separated by narrow space,
so crowded were the camps, were the
quarters of the officers of the -teenth
infantry, and even through the veil of
mist both soldiers could plainly see
along the line. Coming toward the gate
was Mr.. Prime, escorted by the major.
Just behind them followed Mildred and
the attentive Schuyler. But where was
Miss Lawrence? Armstrong had al
ready seen. Lingering, she stood at

look at any of the letters, sir?"
do l look as though l had time to
do anything?" said the chief, dropping
his hands and uplifting lined and hag-
gard face, yet so refined. "Anything
but work, work, morn, noon and night,
The mass of detail one has to meet here
is something appalling. 1t weighs on
me like nightmare, Armstrong. No,
I was worn out the night after the
package reached me. When next 1
sought it the letters were gone.''
How long was that, general?"
Again the weary hands, with their
long, tapering fingers, came up to the
old soldiers brow. He pondered a mo-
ment. 1T must have been the next
afternoon, think, but can't be sure"
"And you had left them-?"
in the inside pocket of that old over
coat of mine, hanging there on the rear
tent POLE" was the answer, as the gen.
eral turned half round in his chair and
glanced wistfully, self-reproachfully
thither.
Armstrong arose and going 10 the
back OF the tent, made close eXamina-
ton. The canvas home of the chief
was what is known as the hospital tent,
but instead of being pitched with the
ordinary ridge pole and upright, sub
stantial wooden frame and floor had
first been built and over this the stout
canvas was stretched, stanch and taut
as the head of drum. 1t was all intact
and sound. Whoever filched that
packet made way with it through the
front, and that, as Armstrong we'll
knew, was kept tightly laced, as a rule,
from the time the general left it in the
morning until his return. 1t was never
unlaced except in his presence or by
his order. Then the deft hands of the
orderlies on duty would do the trick in
"A twinkling. Knowing all this, the
colonel queried further:
You went in town, as I remember,
late that evening and called on the

Billy's tent front, her ear.inclined to his
protruding pate. He was saying some
thing that took time, and she showed no
inclination to hurry him. Miss Prime
looked back, then she and Schuyler ex-
changed significant smiles and glances.
There was rather lingering hand
clasp before Amy started. Even then
she looked back at the boy and smiled.
HIM" said the general, as he gazed,
"that youngster wouldn't swap places
with any subaltern in camp, even if he
is under charges"
There was no answer from the strong
soldier standing observant at his elbow.
But when the chief would have moved
Armstrong detained him. Zone more
question, general. In case you were
away and wanted something. you had
left in this tent, you would send an aide
Or orderly, or-would an order signed
by one of your staff be sufficient?"
Him, well-yes, l suppose it would"
said the general.

Economy Should be Observed.

The city has IL total Indebtedness OF
$l1 ,562,S2 an increase OF 1914 90 over
year ago, which, taken into consid-
Grafton with the amount OF improve
ment made and property owned by
the municipality, is a most creditable
showing. Although we are in spleu-
did condition the cherished hope of
the News is to some day not far dis
tant see the city entirely free from
debt. While the mar agement of al
fairs has been the best for number
of years, it would seem that lust now
would be the time to call halt as far
as possible as to getting further into
| debt and that henceforth retrencli-
ment should be the watchword until
II practically cash basis is reach ed.
The interest on present outstanding
warrants will amount to upwards OF
| $500 per annum. The revenues for
| 1902 with increased licenses and from
other added sources will perhaps reach
neatly $1,000 as against $lO,S76 for
1901. The citizens desire a business
like administration but will also APP
preciate the "pay as you go" system
where it can consistently be done.
The following from the Spokane
Chronicle is very much to the point:
Prosperity brings its own folly.
The last few years have given the
people of America splendid oppor-
tunlties to escape from at least II part
Of the load OF debt under which they
were staggering during the panic
days. In some cases the opportu-
nifty has been seized; in others the
period of abundant money has been
taken not as IL time to pay off debts,
but AS a chance to borrow mere
money and sell fresh interest bearing
bonds to help crush down the tax
payers when hard times come again
Ritzvile should learn from the
mistakes of others. The city and
county government should keep
watch of the dollars now as closely
as If the times of 1913 and '94 were
here again. The fact that the people
are prosperous and the valuation
OF property has greatly increased
does not relieve officials of the duty
of saving every cent they can with
out impairing the public service.
If possible this period when money is
plentiful should be made time for
the reduction of debt and in any
event, no plan to increase either
the city or county debt should be
tolerated if it can be avoided without
seriously injuring, the city's health,
happiness or development.
