This delightful spot IS more easily
reached via the Union Pacific than BY

Roussillon
| Father Gi5ault returned to Fort kas-
kaskia and little later Captain Leon
ard Helm, jovial man, but past the
prime OF life, arrived at Vincennes with
commission from Colonel Clark au-
thoriZing him to supersede NJ. Roussii-
lon as commander and to act as Indian
agent for the American government in
the department of the Wabash. He
was welcomed by the villagers and at
once made himself very pleasing to
them by adapting himself to their ways
and entering heartily into their social
activities.
NJ. Roussillon was absent when Cap
tain Helm and his party came. Rene
de Ronville, nominally in command of
the fort, but actually enjoying some ex-
cellent grouse shooting with bell
mouthed old fowling piece on distant
prairie, could not be present to deliver
up the post, and as there was no garri-
son just then visible Helm took pos
session without any formalities.
81 think, lieutenant, that you'd better
look around through the village and see
If you can scare up this Captain What's
his-name," said the new commander to
stalwart young officer who had come
with him. II can't think of these
French names without getting MY brain
in a twist. DO you happen to recollect
the captains name, lieutenant?
Eyes, sir-Gaspard Roussillon it reads
in Colonel Clark's order, but am told
that he's away on trading tour" said
the young man.
"You may be told anything by these
hair tongued parlyvoos," Helm remark
ed. 1T won't hurt anyway, to find out
where he lives and make formal call,
just for appearance sake, and to IN
quire about his health. I wish you
would try it, sir. and let me know the
result
The lieutenant felt that this was
peremptory order and turned about to
obey promptly.
''And | say. Beverley, come back So
Der il you possibly can" Helm added
in his most genial tone, thinking 1t
great piece of humor to suggest sobri-
ETY. to man whose marked difference
from the men Of that time was his to-
tai abstinence from intoxicating drinks.
Lieutenant Fitzhugh Beverley was
Virginian OF Virginians. His family
had long been prominent in colonial
affairs and boosted record Of great
achievements both in peace and in war;
He was the only son of his parents
and heir to fine estate consisting of
lands and slaves; but, like many an
other of the restless young cavaliers
Of the Old Dominion, he had come in
search OF adventure over into Ken
lucky. along the path blazed by Dan
iel Boone, and when Clark organized
his little army the young mans
patriotic and chivalric nature leaped
at the opportunity to serve his country
under so gallant commander.
Intent upon his formal mission, Lieu
tenant Beverley stalked boldly into the
Enclosure at Roussillon place and was
met on the gallery by Nine. Ronssillon

their heads TO elect popuNst as

time had made the banks OF the county
the treasurer's bondsmen. But this
populist treasurer established a prece-

quire all county officials to obtain their
bonds from some surety company and
that the county pay for the same.

broker who has a country home on Long

quently spends some time in and about
his plants, sometimes doing little gar

thought he would water some plants, so
he called to his new coachman. who was
standing near watering can, and told
him to fill and bring it to him.

said the English importation, touching
his hat.
well. that's all right; bring that can
here"
BEG pardon, sir, I'm the coachman."
well, we'll, I know that. Bring the
can here. I want it."
The coachman touched his hat and still
made tho same reply. Then something
dawned on the broker.
"Oh," he said. $50 you're the coachman
and can't bring the can. Well. coach
man, go and have the black team hitched
to the family carriage and bring it here.
Have one of the hostlers ride on the box
with you"
The coachman touched his hat again
respectfully and went. Presently he
drove up in style.
"Now," said the broker, drive to where
that can is, and you, hostler, pick it up,
get back on the box, drive around to the
stable with the coachman, fill it with
water and have him drive you back
again."
1t was done, and the can brought

Now. hcstler,'' said the broker; ''you
may go. Coachman, you remain where

hours after the broker had finished water
