II. i'm the Chair.
Townsend. Michigan. one Of the au-
thors Of the measure. said that the bill
presented ample occasion to bring into
prominence the agitator who desired
notoriety before his constituents. The
occasion. he snid. was equally fruitful
for that greed and selfshness born of
great power and nurtured by a desire
for financial gain. which would de-
ceive the Congress and the nation in
to believing that the curators of the
government are outside and beyond its
contract and that the problem is so
great and complex that only the rail-
roads can solve it,
| Taking up the merits of the bill.
Townsend said that it had the two
fold object of giving to the interstate
| commerce commission power to fix a
rate and to hasten and expediate the
| work of determining whether the rates
would stand or not. through the special
court created for the purpose of eXpi-
dition.
| There will be day. he said. in the
history of this country. when the peo-
pie would ask less. Tomorrow he
said. "They may demand more" be-
cause they had suffered long and now
We're demanding fair deal. LET the

"a HE day after the battle Wash

the wounded General Mercer the ex-
igency Of his pursuit of the flying Brit
ish and their subsequent pursuit Of
him having precluded him from giving
to his old friend that personal .atten-

Scotchman. Seymour received permits

ascertain, if possible, what had become
of Talbot.
The men Of MERGERS command re-
ported that they had seen the two Of
.fcers dismounted and fighting bravely,
after having refused to retreat. The
two young officers were very melan-
choly as they rode along the familiar
road. Lewis belonged to a Virginia
regiment and had known both Mercer
and Talbot well, and, in fact, oil the
officers who had been killed. The Of
fcers Of that little army were like a
band of brothers, and after every bat
tie there was a general mourning
for the loss OF many friends. The

thing was at stake It was not a time
for strategic maneuvers now, but for
men-nay, there were men there as
good as ever fought -but for a man
then. Providentially one was at hand.
Putting spurs to his gallant white
horse, he rode down the line In front Of
the Pennsylvania militia, waving his
hat and cheering them on.

gentlemen he cried gayly, giving the
view halloo! Galloping forward under
the fire Of the British battery, he called
to MERGERS shattered men. They halt
ed and faced about. The Seventh Vir-
ginia broke through the wood on the
flank Of the British. Hitchcock's New
Englanders came up on the run with
fixed bayonets. Moulder's Philadelphia
battery opened fire from the hill on the
opposing guns.

heart had gone through it, and it, and
the locket also, was stained with blood.
The letter was addressed to Seymour
Wondering, he broke the seal and read
it. It was brief note, written in
camp the night Of the march. It would
seem that Talbot had a presentiment
that he might die in the coming con-
fict; indeed, the letter plainly showed
that he meant to seek death, to court
it in the field. His mother~was to be
told that he had done his duty and
had not failed in sustaining the tradi-
tons Of his honorable house; and the
honest, soldierly little note ended with
these words:
AS for you, my dear Seymour, would
that fate had been kinder to you! We're
Katharine alive, would crave your per-
mission to say these words to her: Il love
you. 4Kats-Tve always loved you-but the

led in the damp, thick leaf mold. Be
fore Hardy could move, before the
smoke had curled away from his re-
volver, u second shot crashed through
the bushes behind him, and the head of
the Hawk rose above them, with Ellis
rifle leveled. The second body lay boot
to boot with the first, when the Indian
stole out into the open space, and
Bones gave long, quivering howl as
he lay down at his masters side and
licked fearfully at one upturned hand.
The Hawk stepped lightly past the de-
tective and raised Ellis head. There
was flask Of whisky In the latter's
pocket, and he uncorked it and forced
some between the close shut teeth, then
felt for the heart. 1t was beating softly.
The minutes passed. Silent and ex-
pressionless as craven image the
Hawk sat between the two bodies, his
knees drawn up tent-wise his rifle rest
Ing on them as he watched the trail
ahead. Once or twice he bent over Ell
lis and gave him more of the whisky
until at length he opened his eyes and
looked up at the patch of blue sky
shining through the tangled branches
overhead. Bones whined and crept
closer to him, and the Indian nodded
his head toward what lay on the other
side of him.
"DeadY' whispered Ellis, moistening
his lips with an effort.
The Hawk bowed grimly. There was
a long silence, and the full glory of
day had spread over the mountains.
The autumn sunlight lay warm and
pleasant where the frost had been an
hour before, and somewhere Oft In the
nils bird was singing madly.
Ellis turned his head and looked at
the hard, ugly face of the body.
Hawk" he whispered finally, "take
my hand, will you? You're white all
right. If he hadn't said she was mar
ried''-
Inc Hawk looked down in his face
minute after and laid the corner of n
blanket over it. When the party Hardy
mad waited for came down the trail IT
was sunset again, and they were laugh
ing and singing, for the long tramp
was nearly over, and each had a nile
and the thought of the one at home to
cheer. AT the turn of the path thew
stopped, and the music died away at
sight of the picture there. Two stark
silent forms lay side by side. and an
indian and yellow dog kept watch
beside their dead.
