‘‘Don't shoot,’’ said he to the men round him. ‘‘Like as not you'll ‘it me. L'll catch the beggar livin. ”’

Simmons ceased shouting for awhile, and the noise of trap wheels conld be heard across the plain. Major Oldyae, commanding the horse battery, was coming back from a dinner in the civil lines; was driving after his usual cus- tom—that is to say, as fast as the horse could go.

The corporal was lying at full length in the dust of the parade ground, a rifle under him Some of the less cautious men ia the distance shouted ‘Shoot im! Shoot ‘im. Slane!’ :

But the major was destined to leaa tis battery afield for many a long day with unshaken nerve He was removed and nursed and petted into conyales- cence. while the battery discussed the wisdom of capturing Simmons and blowing him from a gun They idolized their major. and his reappearance on parade resulted in a scene nowhere pro vided for in the army regulations

Great, too. was the glory that fell to Slane’s share The gunners would bave mad¢ bim drunk thrice a day for at least a fortnight Even the colonel: of* his @wn regiment complimented him upor bis coolness and the local paper called him a hero—which things did not puff him up When tke major prof fered him money and thanks, the virtu ous corporal took the one and put aside the other But he had areqnuest to make and prefaced it with miany a “Beg: y pardon, sir.’ Could the major see his way to letting the Slane-McKenna wed- ding be adorned by the presence of four battery horses to pall a hired barouche? The major could, and so coule the bat- tery —excessively so It was a gorgeous wedding

And they hanged Private Simmens— npanged him as bigh as Haman. in bol low square of the regiment. and the colonel said it was drink. and the chap lain was sure it was the devik and Simmons fancied it was both, but he éidn't know. and only hoped his fate would be a warning to his companions, and half a dozen ‘‘intelligent publi- cists’’ wrote six beautiful leading arti- cles on ‘*The Prevalence of Crime In the Army.”

But not a soul thought of comparing the *‘bloody minded Simmons’’ to the squawking, gaping schoolgirl with which this story opens.

That would have beer too. absurd!
