mean an expenditure of about $2ls,

Thought lie Mnd HeIIRre.

DR. Talmage used to tell story
about an old presiding elder who had
n great fondncss for tabasco sauce.
Not always able to get this on his
travels through his district, he car
ried a bottle of it with him. This he
always had placed on the table of
the hotel where he stayed.
One day an old rustic sat opposite
the venerable elder at dinner and
helped himself freely to the COM
pound He got a big dose of it-in
fact, it took some time for him to re-
cover from the effects. When he did
finally stop coughing long enough to
talk, he glared at the elder and said:
I've heard lots of preachers preach
about hellfrc, but you are the first
ever seen that carried it about with
him. ~. =. Tribune.

ment was true enough, however in
iudicious it might be to bruit it.
Mild-mannered commanding officers
sometimes amaze their subordinates
by most unlocked for and unwelcome
eruptiveness of speech when they
feel that an unwarrantable liberty
has been taken. Webb did not take
fire. He turned icy.
The quartcrmaster's safe can lre
opened at any moment, Mr.. Field"
said he, the blue gray eyes glitter
ing, dangerously. Il presume your
funds are there"
1T was because the quartermaster
would not open it at any moment
that | took them out and placed them
elsewhere" hotly answered Field, and
not until then did Webb remember
that there had been quite fiery talk,
followed by hyperborean estpange-
ment, between his two staff officers,
and now, as the only government safe
at the post was in the Office of the
quartermaster, and the only other
one was Bill Hays big "Phocnix" at
the store, it dawned upon the major
that il was there Mr.. Field had
slowed his packages of currency-a
violation of orders pure and simple
and that was why he could not pro-
duce the money on the spot. Webb
reflected. If he let Ray start at dawn
and held Field back until the trader
was astir, it might be eight o'clock
Before the youngster could set forth.
iiy that time Ray would be perhaps
a dozen miles to the northward, and
with keen-cyed Indian scouts noting
the march of the troop and keeping
yigilant watch for possible strag-
giers, it might be sending the lad to
certain death, for Plodder had said in
so many words the Sioux about him
had declared for war, had butchered
three rauchmen on the Dry Fork,
had fired on and driven in his herd
guards and wood choppers, and,
what started with Lame VOLTS big
band, would spread to Stabber's lit
tie one i'm less than no time. and
what spread to Stabber's would soon
reach "a host of the Sioux. More
over, there was another reason. 1t
would give Field opportunity for fur
thcr conference with inmates Of the
traders household, and the major had
his own grave reasons for seeking

The late Mr.. Augustus Hare lived

would welcome a chance to go again
with Capt. Ray, and now the chance
had come, so had the spoken order,
and, SO far from receiving it with re-
ioising, it was more than apparent
that he heard it with something like
disInay.
But Webb was not the man to
either explain or defend an order,
even to junior for whom he cher
ished such regard Field felt in
stnctively that it was not because
of wish expressed in the past he
was so suddenly hidden to take the
field. Rays senior subaltern, as he
has been said, was absent, being on
duty at West Point, but his junior
was on hand, and Ray really did not
need, and probably had not applied
for, the services of Mr.. Field. 1t was
all the majors doing, and all, rea-
soned he, because the major deemed
it best that for the time being his
young adjutant should be sent away
from the post Impulse prompted
Field TO ask wherein he had offended
or rallied. Reflection taught him,
however, that he would be wise to
ask no questions. 1t might well be
that Webb knew more of what had
happened during the night than he,
Beverly Field, would care to have
mentioned.

asked the major.
Il am ready now, sir" was the
brief, firm reply, but the tone told
unerringly that the lad resented and
in heart rebelled at the detail. ITO
whom shall | turn over the post
fund, sir?"
Il do not care to have you trans
fer funds or-anything, Field. This
is but a temporary affair, one that
will take you away perhaps fort
night"
Il prefer that it should be perma-
nent, SIR was the young officers
sudden interruption, and, though his
eyes were blazing, he spoke with eff
fort, his face still white with mingled
sense of indignity and indignation.
Gently, Mr.. Field" said Webb, with
unruflled calm, even while uplifting
hand in quiet warning. 1--WE will
consider that, if need be, on your re-
turn. Meantime, if you desire, | will
receipt to you for the post fund or
