The Times Daily Short Story.

Bronzed as ne WAS py the sun or trop-
les, he looked under the spirit Of re-
bellion more like q descendant of the
Aztecs than the Irish and more like d
Spaniard than either
Instead Of giving vent to rage. as he
was bound to do by the traditions of
his race, Kelly picked himself up and
quietly called for corporal of the
guard TO take the mutinous recruit TO
the guardhouse. 1t occurred TO me that
he had been trying to prod the man in
to lnutlny in order to have the pleasure
of penning him up. AS Gallagher was
marched away noticed peculiar ex-
preston on his face, an expression that
denoted self condemnation. He was
evidently much dissatisfied with him-
self for letting the sergeant get the
better Of him.
We marched next day, and Gallagher
walked, with other prisoners, under
guard. We soon came upon the Mexi-
cans. and our little army deployed for
tight. The ordinary routine OF army
life vanishes with the sound of firing,
and Gallagher was in II with the rest
of us remember seeing one OF the
junior lleutenants telling him to "go
In" and he would help him by testify
ing to the fact on his trial for mutiny.
But that was the last saw of the mu-
tineer during the fight. and after II
was over no one saw him. He was
among the missing. When suggested
that he had died the death Of a soldier.
Kelly's wrath exploded.
"lilled, the spalpcen. Dye be think
in there was bullet fired by the
Mexlcans that would "a touched the
dirty spyf''
What do you mean, sergeant"
ooh. go long wild yez. Dye think OF
wouldn't know any o the Gallaghers?
The miserable spaniard didn't even
know how to spell his own Irish name
We laughed at the sergeant's preju-
dice against the poor fellow, who must
have been buried by those of another
corps who didn't know him, and
thought no more about the matter
Our work had now commenced in
earnest, and we had no time for any
thing but fighting till we had captured
the City Of Mexico. Our battery was
good deal cut up by the concentrated
fire Of several Mexican batteries on
the heights of Chapultepcc. Kelly
vowed that the Aztec. ms he had called
Gallagher, had come bacl from purga-
tory and entered The body Of the officer
commanding the battery that had done
US the most damage. When the fight
was over Kelly went up the heights,
and later we saw him coming back,
with body sIung over his shoulder.
When he reached the battery he threw
dead Mexican officer on the ground
and exclaimed:
"Oi knew Ord git i'm some time. It's
the spalpeon that was spyin' on us
under pretensc o bein' a Gallagher.
OF knew he was spy, but OF couldn't
prove IT,"
There, true enough, was the body Of
the man who bad called himself Gal
lagier in the uniform Of 4 major OF ar.
tillery IN tile Mexican army.
