posed to have a grand Christmas cele-
bration In the great mess hall, to
which would be invited all the menu
bers OF the troops at the station. The
captain and the lieutenant were, OF
course, foremost in the arrangements,
and to them was left the duty OF is
suing Invitations for those outside the
post. Ranchmen and their families,
merchants from the neighboring town.
well-to-do farmers and indeed every
available resident who might contrib
ute to the pleasure of the occasion
were hidden.
To Miss Landers came two invita-
tons, one addressed in the grabbed
back-hand chirography of the captain
and the other in the flowing, artistic
style OF the Lieutenant Which should
she accept? She determined to walt
on events and see where fate led. Fate
seemed very undecided at that point
Of the affair.
No word passed between the captain
and the lieutenant regarding the In
vitation to Miss Landers, nor was there
any discussion regarding the manner
by which she was to get to the cele-
bration. However. II was the inten-
ton of each to be her personal escort.
But the lieutenant reckoned without a
knowledge OF the intensity of the cap
tain's nature; for when he asked for
leave to go outside the post, the re-
quest came back with the curt indorse-
ment. Refused" That meant that he
must stay at the fort or be subject to
a period In the guard house.
The captain chuckled and patiently
rubbed the brass fittings of his big red
automobile He looked forward with
much pleasure to the coming ten-mile
trip across the smooth prairie roads in
the crisp winter evening, and he smiled
as he thought Of the discounted lieu
tenant, compelled to remain at the fort.
At dusk the devil wagon careened
out OF the high-walled parade ground
and swept down the slope to the bot
tom lands that led away up the Smoky
Hill to the Circle Bar ranch, where
Miss Landers was waiting for her es-
cort-wondering all the time which of
the twain would first appear. The
captain, well bundled against the pierre
ing cold, did not look to the south or
he would have seen a rider on horse
back making almost as good time as

his machine .or miles at velocity
that would have landed him in jail
In any city in the land.
The captain liked swiftness. That
was why he bought the automobile.
He ran It to the limit Of its speed
whenever he rode. So in love with 1t
was he that beyond the dreary monot-
onous daily routine, he gave little at
tention to the doings of the fort. He
had forgotten the annual club dance
and was for days unaware of the COM
ing Christmas Eve celebration. He
was coursing up toward Wild Horse
canyon when the arrangements were
made.
On that very afternoon as he round
ed the foot Of the canyon he came
plump toward lady riding almost as
swiftly as he, but mounted on hand
some brown Kentucky saddler. Hei
horse veered far to the right, but she
sat him like princess and showed no
sign of fear.
"Beg your pardon" exclaimed the
captain, hating his machine and lift
ing his fatigue cap. She came nearer
and then he knew her-Lieut Burton
had brought her to the dance-she was
daughter of a wealthy rancher.
Miss Landers smiled and came as
near as her restless horse would con-
sent to approach. Hero never saw
an auto before" she explained; then
rode on with another irradiating
smile.
The following week the red automo-
bile was at Miss Landers' door and
she went riding over the level plains
with the captain. He was radiant In
his happiness and was certain that he
had, with his advantage of equipment
and rank; outwitted his rival. But
the happiness was short-lived; for.
riding up by the haunted house on the
crest Of the divide few days later,
he saw two figures on horseback. one
of whom was plainly Burton and the
other evidently Miss Landers. After
that the contest became unfriendly,
and II was war to the knife between
the rivals.
So went the varying favors until the
approach of the holidays. The fort, as
a break in the dullness Of winter, pro

mas eve a favor to his subjects

"Your pleasure, Miss Landers,"
laughed the captain. He was feeling
very good-natured just now.
"The release of Lieut.. Burton-and
his presence here" came the quick re-
ply.
There was nothing for 1t but ODE
dience, and the captain gave the signal.
In a moment there came an orderly
with a young man in cowboy suit
Lieut.. Burton-and the crowd cheered
as he bowed low % them all.
"But--but--" began the captain,
wonderingly, "are you--are you"
"Yes," interrupted Miss Landers,
"you brought him here yourself. and we
thank you so much. 1t was very kind"
Lieut.. Burton bowed low again and
then took Miss Landers' hand. II. too,
thank you," he added; then in low
tone, the words being audible only to
the captain: Don't fuss so long on
the way with your auto next time--a
horse is swifter And, say" in almost
a whisper, "come to our wedding, will
you--it's the last Of January"

floor amid the maze of white dresses
and uniforms; the huge clock in the
