A UNIQUE
CHALLENGE
BY F. A. MICHEL

During the days when our regular
| army's only active service was in
western frontier forts. with an occa-
slonal brush with Indians. misunder-
standing grew up between Colonel
| Blakeslee, the commander of one of
these posts, and Major Truesdale, the
surgeon. Blakeslee was very over
] bearing man. He was good fighter,
! md as he was small In stature and of
swarthy complexion he acquired the
sobriquet of little black god OF war"
A surgeon in the army cannot be
called a noncombatant, for he must
expose himself to fire the same as the
lighters. Indeed, he has more need of
nerve, because, while he is buoyed
by the excitement of battle. he must
do his work with cool head. Never
theless Colonel Blakeslee in order to
be annoying to his inferior was always
making innfendos as to the unwarlike
work of the medical department.
Truesdale was obliged to bear these
slurs because he had no recourse
against a superior officer except pre-
ferring charges, and In his case there
were no charges 10 be brought forth
worthy of the consideration of court
martial
There is nothing more CALLING than
the petty elurs of one under whose
control is the subject of the persecu-
ton. Truesdale suffered the colonel's
innuendoes as men will endure a spat-
tering of bullets coming from shelter
they are not permitted to move upon.
The surgeon was man of great equi-
poise, and no one noticed from his de-
meanor that he was annoyed. Never
theless there was in his breast a smol-
dering fire. He would have challenged
his commander to end their disagree
ment at the point of pistol, but
challenge of a superior by an inferior
would be mutiny. Besides, dueling
has never been recognized in the Unit
ed States army, and without a more
tangible cause than the one in this
case a challenge would have reacted
upon the surgeon.
The colonel. not observing any ef-
feet from his slurs, began to infiict
upon his subordinate acts Of petty
tyranny for which any superior officer
can find causes without hunting for
them. The doctor bore them all with
out complaint, but fire was ready to
burst forth at any moment
Then came one OF those frequent
breaks Of the Indians from their res
ervation. and the command was or
dered out 10 drive them back. One
afternoon the little force Of white men
were confronting thrice their number
of Indians. The colonel did not feel
warranted in attacking them, especial
ly as he was expecting any moment
to be REINFORCED. While he was con-
sulting with his officers Truesdale rode
