two hitherto shining lights of the gar- rison and admirers of Mrs. Merriweath er (‘‘Could Mrs. Merriweather have gone with either of them?’’ asked some one of the ladies, ‘‘Or with both?’’ asked certain brutes am the offic —an finally, Li tel oes ,a ba nalian \ Irlt AAWSOD, Al tt f in quarters With an Irish orderly in at-

The way Stannard sailed in was char- acteristic. Brady had not been drunk on duty. He had taken advantage of the absence of Atherton and Stannard to relax the reins of kis self control, but had only got a good start when he sought and received aseven days’ leave from Major Mainwaring, which enabled him to meet Rawson at Pawnee. This was about ten days after the explosion. He was to have staid his week away, but in two days suddenly reappeared in Butte, full of whisky and information. Mainwaring, who knew him but slight- ly, received a dispatch saying that he had news of a most important character resulting from discoveries he had made at Pawnee and urging the commanding officer to meet him at the railway sta- tion on his arrival, which Mainwaring did, and then the very next night or- gered Hunter’s arrest.

“T always said that when Brady drank he could be depended upon to make an ass of himself,’’ said Blake, ‘‘and this proves it.’’ But what Brady’s revelations might have been Mainwar- ing refus2d to disclose. It was enough, he said, to hang Hunter high as the hayman, and the hay contractor, -in Mainwaring’s opinion, was the double dashedest scoundrel that ever lived. This statement s0 rejoiced Blake’s heart that be repeated it broadcast and was in the merriest of moods until he heard | that Mainwaring had forbidden Captain

Ray’s kaving an interview with bis im-

prisoned recruit. Then Blake boiled

over and made the odious comparison | between Mainwaring’s brain and the ' blown up building which resulted in his own summary confinement to quar- ters. Brady’s leave had still two days to run when Stannard got back, but Stannard had heard enough of his do- ings in Butte to warrant the immediate | action taken. An officer tvas sent with the post ambulance and orders to fetch him forthwith. Then and there Dana | waited on him with the major’s mes- | sage to the effect that he would give | bim 24 hours in which to scber up and face the music, and Brady had sense enough to know he had no time to lose.

Then another snarl bad to be disen- tangled in which Stannard could not help, cince it was purely domestic. Tbe veteran post surgeon had had a flare up with Mainwaring, all on account of Trosper Hunter. The doctor protested against his patient’s being put in the

RUATANGCUSe, GOCiaTiug wise : what the charges were he was entitled to humane as weil as medical treatment. Muinwaring said the man of his own volition had removed himself from hos pital and therefore deserved no consid- eration. The doctor said if Hunter were | kept in the prison room with the garri- son malefactors overnight he would | hold Mainwaring responsible for ill re- | sults that were certain to occur, which | staggered Mainwaring for a minute. | He finally compromised, ordered Hun- | ter sent back to hospital, but put in a | room by himself with a sentry at th door and another at the window, and orders prohibiting his being seen or spoken to by anybody except the doc- tors and the steward, unless it were himself or on his own written ordsr Then Mainwaring had to go home an face the women folk, and there for the

LvU

first time (Miss Leroy, shocked and stun ned, having gone to her rcom) did Mrs fainwaring have him to herself and

the identification of Hun

tell him of

as tho polite and helpful stranger of the

night on the train. Then, furthermore, did she add her plea to the doctor’s and finally admit that, much to her own «

tress and consternation, she feared ret was actually deeply if not indeed very painfully interested in this mysterious trooper. In justice to Pet, she must say

that that young lacy was probably un- aware of the feeling that bad. been grow- ing upon her until the denonement of that evening. She(Mrs. Mainwaring) had striven to wean her from the morn- ing services, but without success, and now she kyew not what had happened, for Pet bad shut herself in ber room and begged to be left undisturbed.

Which was more than Pet would permit the major to be next day, bow- ever, for she was up and on the lookout | for him on his return from stables. He marveled and was shocked at the pallor | of her face, the trouble in her eyes. | Without preliminary remark, she went | straight to ber subject.

‘‘Major Mainwaring, at what time and where may I see Trooper Hunter, as you call him, today:’’

‘*‘Well—I, I’m sure I don’t know, Kate,’’ for the major, like riany a lion among men, was a lamb among women. ‘*I—don’t think you—ought to wish to} see him.’’

**But Ide wish it, major. Moreover, , I should be ashamed of myself if I did | not.”’ And tbe reply conveyed all the more weight because of the calm deci- sion of her manner.

And so the first written order Main- + waring signed was one to permit the bearer to visit the prisoner Hunter, and at 10 o’clock that morning, when, pale, calm, but resolute as ever and smiling still despite her sleepless night, Miss Leroy entered the hospital for the cus- tomary reading, she sent the steward to tell Mr. Hunter that she hoped he | would be able to see ber soon after 11 and then indomitably went on with her self appointed task.

At 11:15 the post surgeon came, 8i- lently gave her his armas they left the big sunshiny ward and led her to a doorway up the corridor in front of which a sentry was pacing—a sertry who halted and presented arms as the doctor opened the door and ushered her in.

It was that night that Merriweather was brought back from town to the guardhouse, shot and stabbed, as has been said. Mrs. Merriweather bad fled during the previous night, and the ser- geant had been missing since reveille. It was the next night that Stannard re- turned and had Brady hunted up. Then tame new labors and honors for Sheriff Conway, and this time there were no troops to divide the honors of the cap- ture with him, for his prisoners were deserters al!—one from an overindul- geet husband. the others from a not too

—

indulgent Uncle Sam. Pawnee was the Mecca of the fugitives. Thither bad Mrs. Merriweather fied to a married sis- ter. Thither bad Croxford and Elzey followed, after having remained to cover her retreat and settle matters with the sergeant, which they had done only too effectually, for Merriweather’s days were numbered.

Two days later Stannard had straight- ened out affairs at the post in marvelous fashion (all save matters domestic— wherein, said he, no wise man med- died), and the man to start him on the right scent was that scapegrace, the Kid, whom he had disciplined time and again in Arizona days and appreciated at his true value. The Kid’s derisive and explosive laughter when told that Major Mainwaring had ordered Trooper Hunter confined as accessory to the mag- gzine robbery, etc., had been promptly reported to Stannard on his return, and that versatile young reprobate was sent for, marched to the adjutant’s office and collared by his old time troop command- er, for one of his several enlistments the Kid had spent with Stannard, and knew him well.

And this was what the Kid divulged.

Bvery one know he could nan a loses

A WORD

like 4 cowboy, and Croxiord had asked him, just for deviltry, to join him and ‘“‘some other fellers’’ in roping the swell, Hunter, on the midnight relief, and he was going to, but happened to hear that Merriweather was in it, and that set him to thinking. ‘\He’d beard the women talking about Mrs. Merri- | weather’s boasting that she had made a conquest of the swell recruit, and he | remembered Blerriweather’s black eve and the rumer that it was Hunter ‘laid him out,’’ and the Kid scented mischief and backed out. Then Oroxford came | and told him it would be best for him

| to keep his promise, as he might get the |

credit of it anyhow, which prompted | the Kid to tell them all to go to Baily- | hack. But when Elzey and Hughes later

came and ‘‘stumped him’’ to join them |

| in @ spree to town that night and dis- |

played their money he forgot Croxford’s |

| threat in the prospect of whisky and,

anything for a frolic, started with | them, only to run foul of the patrol just across the creek.

ut the moment he heard of Hunter’s being hauied out of the stream after the | explosion the whole plot dawned on him, and something more, for he re- membered the stories of forage and car- | tridges being sold in town and saw that if was planned to fix the guilt on Hun- ter, and, if not, to fix the crime of the

| assault on the sacred person of a sentry |

upon himself, the innocent Kid. Then Stannard would have cross questioned the two deserters, for such they were, despite staiwart protestations that they were only out for 24 hours’ fun, but de- tec ferreting their movements, warned him to make noattempt. Merri- weather might make an antemortem statement, but’ not these men. Neither would Mrs. Merriweather ‘‘peach.’’ She was In the county jail begging piteous- ly to be taken to her Danny and declar- ing he and she were only going to Paw- nee to see her sister for a day, and he must haye been waylaid in town.
