some, already cursed with his fathers
sin-what comfort could he be to
her? He had gone away to enlist;
he was drunk when he did it.
There. was a creak at the gate,
click of latch, and the fall Of a foot
on the moonlit porch. She half rose;
she was not frightened. How she
knew who it was, God alone knows,
but she looked up, timidly, under
standing who was coming, knowing
who would knock, who would enter,
who would speak. And yet she had
never seen him but once in her life.
All this she knew-this child made
wise in the space of time marked by
the tick of the kitchen clock; but
she did not know that the memory of
his smile had given her the peace
she could not understand, she did not
know this until he entered-dUsty,
slim, sUnburnt, his yellow gauntlets
folded in his belt, his cap and sabre
in his hand Then she knew it. When
she understood this she stood up,
pale, uncertain. He bowed silently
and stepped forward, fumbling with
his sabre hilt. She motiOned toward
a chair.
He said he had a message for the
master of the house, and glanced
about vaguely, noting the single place
at table. She said he might give the
message to her.
ct is only that-if I do not incon-
venience you too much" he smiled
faintly-''if you would allow me
well, the truth is 1 am biIleted here
for the night"
She did not know what that meant
and he explained.
1.-The master of the house is alb
SENT" she said, thinking Of her
brother.
"Witl he return tonight?" he
asked.
She shook her head; she was

very sorry that we have trampled
your garden. If you are loyal the
government will indemnify you"
She spoke, scarcely hearing her
own voice: ct is not that am
loyal-it is only I wish to ask you
where my brothers regiment where
the 6Oth Maryland is"
''The 6Oth Maryland oh-why,
it's, in Kings brigade, Wolcott's Di-
vision; I think it's yonder." He point
ed toward the beechwoods.
"YOnder? Where they are fring?"
Again the cannon Numbered and
the ground shook under her. She
saw him nod, smiling family.
But around the house the last of
the troops had passed; she could see
them, not yet far away, moving up
among the fields toward the ridges
where the sun burned on the bronz-
ing scrUb-Oak thickets.
She stood a moment watching the
yellow dust hanging motionless in
the rear of the disappointing column.
Beyond Benson's Hill bugle blew
family; distant rife shots sounded
along the ridge; then silence crept
through the sunIit meadows, across
the leveled corn, across dead stalks
and stems, a silence that spread like
a shadow.
On the hair-cloth sofa in the par
lor she lay, flung face down, hands
pressed to her ears. But silence en-
tered with her, sitting the sob in her
throat.
When she raised her head it was
dusk. She sat up, peering fearfuIly
into the darkness, and she heard the
clock ticking in the kitchen and rus
tie Of vines on the porch.
When she had sat silent a little
while dreaming over the sins of a

 IS OPTIMISTIC

w. H. Whittlesey, the well known attorney of Seward. is a passenger on the Alameda enroute to his home town. Mir. Whittlesey was called East as a witness in the Frost trials at Chi cago. After the close of the trials he went to Washington and remained there until Major Strong's appoint ment to be Governor of Alaska had been confirmed.
 Mir. Whittlesey returns to the North very much impressed with the change for the better that has befallen to the lot of Alaska and Alaskans. The de- termination of the present administra- tion to adopt a progressive construc- tive policy looking toward the devel- opment and settling up of the terri tory has inspired confidence among investors and an era of prosperity is sure to set in.
 The need of opening. up the coal mines and the building of a govern ment road to the mines is recognized as the foremost necessity along this line and Mir. Whittlesey is assured that it will be carried out immediately or as soon as is consistent with sound business sense.
