forward with easy assurance. Marie
did not look at Hardy. 40 she fol-

The president addressed vandervyn:
Captain Hardy has declined to ask
for clemency. I have decided to gus
tain the findings OF the court-martial.
In the face Of all this. he has had the
temerity to make q charge OF fraud
against your Indian contract"

"The signatures are genuine. They

charged Hardy.

somewhat better than that of a cash

"You deny the charge" the president
stated rather than inquired.

agreed vandervyn. He looked slgnlfl.

Condemned.

The court-martial began Its session
at nine in the morning, and the trial
of Hardy was over before three in the
afternoon. Vandervyn testified to the
suppression by the accused Of the ex-
istence of the developed mine and Of
Redbear's misconduct.
Hardy's statements In explanation
of his actions were as brief as they
were cold and dry. Acting as civil
officer. he had considered the question
of Withholding any mention Of the
mine as a matter within his discretion.
When Intercepted whether he had not
taken advantage of this suppression
TO enter the contest and win the mine
for himself, his bald admission Of the
fact, unaccompanied by any explana-
ton of his motives, was received by
his officer judges with marked gravity.
The other charges were far more
serious, and he opposed them with
vigor. He denied emphatically any In
tention to desert or to remain perma-
nently absent from his proper duties
without leave, and showed the tele-

resignation and application for leave
of absence would be at once favorabiy
acted upon by his commanding officer
ot Vancouver barracks. This. In some
circumstances, might have been con-
sidered sufficient excuse for his con-
duct, But his refusal to explain his
reason for taking advantage Of his Sc

Influenced the members Of the court
70 doubt the statement of his purpose
in coming to Washington.
Though the court-martial adjourned
without rendering it's findings, he left
the courtroom ten years older In ap-
pearance than when he entered. The
recretful, commiserating glance OF the
most friendly of his judges seemed
MAINLY to indicate what would be the
findings. The thought Of voluntarily
resigning from the service had been
hard. To be cashiered was almost I'M
endurable.
Yet he walked out with his back
straight and his head well up. He
went directly to the White House and

when the sharp-eyed man to whom
Vandervyn had spoken came around
beside Hardy and murmured a few
words In his ear. Hardy looked him
in the eye, bowed, and quietly started
to move away. The man followed him
until he had left the White House.

the room.
For q long moment Hardy stood with
the decree Of his fate slowly crumplins
In his hand. His eyes were fixed on
vacancy. Doubtless he was seeing the
years Of soldierly comradeship and
duty that now lay In the past and the
vision Of the career to which he was
to have given the utmost Of his pow

Hardy drew himself up. opened the
envelope, took out the document and
read.
As Marie saw the look Of blank In
creduli.y that came into his face, her
eyes flashed under the lowering veil OF
their long lashes. He stared up Mt her.

Marie lowered her eyes. The presi-

Mr.. Vandervyn, there can be no ques-

witnesses than yourselves and the In

"Your excellency evidently has not

Hardy met the presidents look OF
