A flippant young person once said
that two soubrettes might more
easily be reconciled to one spotlight
than two army officers to a ten-acre
lot. That may not be true, but GER

For Correspondents

The Press is always glad to print
communications on timely topics,
but here is a simple little require
ment it will have to insist upon.
This is that communications be
written plainly and on one side of
the paper only. Otherwise some,
body has to rewrite the matter be-
fore it can be set. and few news.
papermen are so happily situated
that they have the time for per
forming this labor, which would
have cost the correspondent nc
more effort in the first instance.

trary, and IL my health continues
good, shall remain at this post for
three years, when shall have
reached the age of 81. have no
intention of retiring, unless
should be appointed brigadier gen.
eral."
This quietly, though earnestly,
spoken ultimatum is Col. VIM. F..
Stewards answer to his persecu-
tors. 1t means that the old coast
artillery officer will keep up his des-
perate fight against the powers that
be at Washington, undaunted by
the narrowing life in the Arizona
desert. calmly facing the blistering
heat of summer and the cold win
ter blasts, quartered in the midst
of the crumbling ruins of fort
that was abandoned three years ago
because of inadequate water sup
ply, with negro, sick soldier and
pair of mules to bear him COM
pany and compelled to live on scrub
rations.
Such is the forced fate Of the
aged and distinguished army Of
ficer who rebelled against the auto
cratic command of Roosevelt to
get out" Of the army, his present
exile being his presidentially-im-
posed punishment for refusal.
IF there Is any charge against
the conduct of my Office I stand
ready to meet it," he said. 81 am
fond of my work and l have my
own ideas of what is to be expect
ed from an officer of my rank.
There appears to be no charge
against me, but perhaps preju-
dice formed upon the opinion of Of
ficers who consider me too strict
| disciplinarian. l am a strict dis
ciplinarian. I may also be dictator
ial and therefore obnoxious in GER
tain quarters. My life is serious
to me and my conduct Is based
upon a literal Interpretation of
army law.

an interview of any treatment &C.
corded me. l must not be under
stood as finding fault. l recognize
the authority of my superiors, and
to the best of my ability l am try
ing to meet this matter honorably
and do my duty, wherever that may
| call me-"
| There was nothing but candor
and patient acquiescence in the at
titude Of the old fighting officer as
he spoke Of his exile, outlawry and
public humiliation. But in his steel
eye and around his tight mouth
read the pain of his heart, his en-
barrassment, and, also. his fixed
purpose to stand by the flag of his
principle.
Col. Stewart, with soldierly pride,
hopes to retire with the rank of
brigadier general, which he may
have at the age of 81, or sooner
If conferred. He says. and appear.
ances do not belle. that he is in
splendid physical condition, and
there is no reason why he should
lay down his sword.
The president, without sustained
charges, cannot retire him until
three years hence, and Stewart ap
pears determined to stick it out in
the rattlesnake jungle.

CHAPTER XVI.
Tho Temperance Of an Old Friend

Wv NS&RPSof nv " MI ~ tSbtss
After supper the lieutenant and
Nadia danced twice together. the
young girls mood having apparently
changed to one Of buoyant, careless
happiness, her dark eyes smiling, her
lips uttering freely whatever thought
came uppermost. Outwardly she pic
tured the gay and merry spirit of the
night, yet to Brant, already observing
her with the jealousy of a lover, she
appeared distract and restless, her af-
fectation of abandon a mere mask to
her feelings. Perhaps these things
might have passed unnoted but for
their contrast with the late confidsn-
t4al chat.
He could not reconcile this sudden
change with what he believed of her.
It was not carried out with the prao-
ticed art OF one accustomed to deceit.
There must be something real infu-
encing her action. These misgivings
burdened his mind even as he swung
lightly with her to the music, and they
talked together in little snatches.
The last two waltzes ended, they
walked slowly through the scattering
throng. he striving vainly to arouse
her to the former independence and
intimacy of speech. Suddenly they
anne face to face with Mrs. Herndon,
and Brant felt the girls arm twitch.

slight complaint in her voice. I'VE

"Oh, indeed" Mrs. Herndon's *
preston was noncommittal, while her
eyes surveyed the lieutenant.
with your permission. OF course"
he said.
81 hardly think 1 have any need to
Interfere"
They separated, the younger people
walking slowly. silently toward the
door. He held her arm, assisting her
TO descend the stairway, his lips muir
muring a few c~ommonplaces, to which
she scarcely returned vel monosyl-
Liable replies, although she frequently
flashed shy glances at his grave face.
Both realized that some explanation
was forthcoming. yet neither was quite
prepared to force the issue.
81 have no wraps at the hotel" she
said, as he attempted to turn that
way. That was a lie also; let us
walk directly down the road"
He INDUCED in no comment, his
eyes perceiving a pathetic pleading in
her upturned face. Suddenly there
came to him a belief that the girl was
crying; he could feel the slight tremor
Of her form against his own. He
glanced furtively at her, only to catch
the glitter of a falling tear. To her
evident distress, his heart made in
slant and sympathetic response. with
all respect influencing the action. his
