"The only difference between the re-

Colonel Roosevelt was plainly dis

Mr. Graham had approached the
colonel so quietly that for moment
or two there were few that were aware
he had been challenged.
You're a busy man, colonel" the
lawyer said, land we will excuse YOU"
Explaining later why he challenged
