PAY IS SMALL
BUT YANKSARE
NEVER BROKE

Paris. July 1.-(By maiD-With an
income of only s31- month and a
small extra percentage for foreign
service, many of the American SOL
diers in France have "all kinds of
money" In their travels and .rela-
tions with other armies. they have
picked up coins of many different
kinds, and the money of all the allies
is accepted virtually at face value in
this world metropolis. With a s10
bill, one can get considerably above
the normal rate of exchange in any
important store or restaurant in Paris
and English, Belgian, Greek and Ital-
ian money often is given one as
change. The recent growth OF the
American warehouse center in Rotter-
dam, calling for an increased number
of soldiers on guard duty, and sailors
on some twenty ships carrying relief
supplies from Rotterdam to Hamburg
and Danzig, has added Dutch money
to the list. Occasionally one gets
Portuguese coin. brought by the
army from Portugal and a little Swiss
money is also in circulation. Nearly
all the boys have German money, too,
but that is far below par.
One of the big jobs of the Ameri-
can Y. NJ. C. A. just now is money
changing. All the homeward bound
boys want American money only, and
at all the embarkation ports of the
" is seeing to it that the boys
get the full worth of their money
without having to pay exchange.
When the boys arrived here dollar

francs, but the "Y'' gave the boys
5.45 francs for their American money.
thereby saving about nine cents on
the dollar to them. As the rate went
up the "" paid more, and in send
ing home millions of dollars for the
boys it also gave them advantage of
the current legal rate.
1t is impossible to estimate the
amount of money saved the Ameri-
cans in these ways, but most of the
men in the A. Z. F. were benefited
directly, and all of them indirectly
as the service had great effect in es-
tablishing values. The fact that any
soldier could go to any Y. NJ. c. A.
hut and get full worth for his money,
established standards which were ac-
cepted in shops and restaurants.

CHAPTER I.
At Old Fort Armstrong.

1t was the early springtime, and my
history tells me the year was 1882,
although now that seems so far way !
almost hesitate to write the date. II
appears surprising that through the
haze OF all those intervening years
Intensely active years with mel
should now be able to recall SO clearly
the scene of that far-off morning of
my youth. and depict In memory each

realize yourself the stirring events re-
sulting from that idle moment, you
may be able to comprehend the deep
impression left upon my mind, which
no cycle Of time could wei erase.
was barely twenty then, q strong,
almost headstrong boy, and the far
wilderness was still very new to me,
although for two years past l had held
army commission and beer assigned TO
duty In frontier forts. Yet never pre-
yiously had ! been stationed at quite
so isolated an outpost Of civilization
as was this combination of rock and
log defense erected at the southern
extremity Of Rock Island, fairly ma
rooned amid the sweep of the great
river, with Indian-haunted land
stretching for leagues on every side.
A mere handful of troops was quar-
tered there, technically two companies
or Infantry. yet numbering barely
enough for one; and this in spite of
rumors daily drifting to us that the
Sacs and Foxes, with their main vii
lage just below. were already becom-
Ing restless and warllke. inflamed by
the slow approach of white settlers
into the valley OF the Rock. Indeed.
so short was the garrison Of officers,
that the harassed commander had yen-
tured to retain me for field service. In
spite of the fact that I was detailed TO
stan duty. had borne dispatches up the
Mississippi from General Gaines and
expected to return again by the first
boat.
The morning vas one of deep-blue
sky and bright sunshine. As soon as
early drill ended I had left the fort
enclosure and sought a lonely perch
on the great rock above the mouth of
the cave. Below. extended a magnin-
cent river, fully a mile wide from
shore to shore; unbroken in its vast
sweep toward the sea except for a few
small willow-studded islands a mile or
two away. Over there, In the near
shadow Of the Rock Valley, was where

/ bowed In acknowledgment, the
family arrogance of the man interest
ing me deeply. So evident was this
pride that this might be all the man
had left-this memory Of the past.

years younger. And the estate still

The smile of c~ondescension deserted
his eyes, and his thin lips pressed
tightly together.
Il regret not; many Of the later
years have proven disastrous In the
extreme" he admitted, hesitatingly.

Kirbyl I have been awaiting you.

others hand, and looked straight into
his dark eyes. They were like q mask.
The face was long. firm-jawed. slightly
swarthy. a tightly clipped black mus
tache shadowing the upper lip. 1t was
a reckless face. yet appeared carved
from marble.
Exceedingly pleased to meet you,"
he said carelessly. Rather a dull lot
on board-miners and such cattle.
Bound for st. Louis?"
"Yes-and beyond"
"Shall see more of you then. Well,
Judge, how do you feel? Carver and
McAfee are waiting for us down be-
low"
The two disappeared together down
the ladder and l was again left alone
