Through the Camp of the Enemy.
A glance at my watch told me that
it was already within few moments
Of midnight. There was, however, no
diminution In the festivities, and |
waited in silence until / heard the
sentries calling the hour, and then
pressed my way back into the noisy,
crowded ballroom. l was stopped
twice by well-meaning officers whom

breaking away from them after the
exchange of sentence or two, urged
my course as directly as possible to-
ward where the specialized brigadier
yet held his post as master of cere-
monies.
We had been conversing pleasantly
for several minutes when Mrs. Bren-
nan appeared Standing SO as to face
the stairs, l saw her first coming
down, and noted that she wore her
hat, and had light walking-cloak
thrown over her shoulders. My heart
beat faster as l realized for the
first time that she intended to be my
companion.
"Oh. General, am exceedingly glad
to find you yet here, she exclaimed
as she came up, and extended neat
ly gloyed hand to him. Il have a
favor to ask which am told you alone

He bowed gallantly
II am very sure, he returned smil-
ingly, that Mrs. Brennan will never
request anything which would not
gladly yield"
She flashed her eyes brightly into
his face.

Bartender's Suggestion to Rough Look
ing, but Wealthy, Patron, Was
Meant to Be Kindly.

Tetlow is man of substance and OF
some standing. He even lays claim to
some literary ability, but he has care
less habits. If his wife didn't watch
him closely he would wear the same
suit of clothes from one years end to
the other. He never thinks OF getting
shaved until some one asks him II
he is trying to raise beard. Natu-
rally, he is apt to be misJudged by
those who have nothing but his ap-
pearance to go upon
Drinking whisky is one of his fads
He takes a drink when he likes 1t,
and that is rather frequently. and he
gets it wherever he happens to be.
The other day he was in front ct one
Of the new palatial hotels and thought
he would see what sort of refreshment
was served there. He asked for his
favorite brand and the bartender set
the bottle before him. Now Tetlow
is not a heavy drinker, although a
frequent one, so he poured out very
moderate amount.
The bartender looked his i'll fitting
and well worn clothes over and then
glanced at the shallow drink he had
measured out.
See here. old man." said the bar
tender, that's going to set you back
20 cents You might as well get your
moneys worth"
Tetlow slammed down ten dollar
bill, got his change and walked out,
leaving the drink untasted on the bar.
