The sheriff at Butte had a good sized posse in readiness by breakfast time and then started valiantly on the trail of Ray’s troop, passing through Fort Ransom about the time that Mr. Dana was mounting guard.

Other sheriff's officials went out to Minden with the division superintend- ent, and others stil? pushed on to Paw- nee, up on the broad plateau, to inquire for two cowboys, a tramp and a swell, all of whom had appeared there in com- pany just after the smash up at Alkali

All this by rapid telegraphing to and fro was developed before the posse started on its way, but not until after the despoiled train had changed engines at Butto, and then, according to the inexorable rules of the railway, Sad gone on again. .Jar- vis remembered that a very decent, qaiet fellow boarded the forward pas- senger coach at Pawnee with a ticket for Sweetwater, but he did not connect him with the tramp so lavishly provid- ed for by the ‘‘swell’’ the night of the collision. But, now they spoke of' it, they were about the same size and build, and, what made it significant, that fc)

All they discovered by noon was that such a party had been seen talking ex- citedly with a tall stranger in heavy overcoat and cap near the baggage room just after the train camein. The bag- gage man said that the man who pre- sented check for the trunk from Pawnee

Recruit Hunter’s pass was up at noon, and at 11:30 he jumped from a light wagon at the south gate and waa hailed by the corporal of the guard as he was striding briskly toward his troop quarters:

The tall recruit halted, turned and looked around, irresolute. It might be authoritative, it might bé mere practi- cal joke. At alleveuts the corporal was responsible, and soldier walked straight to where the noncommissioned officer was seated on a bench, near the hall door of the guardhouse.

“Oatch him out of watching distance of the little woman !’’ said one of them, with a grin. ‘‘Mind your eye, Hunter. She'll be making up to you vext,’’ said the other, ‘‘and we don’t want you to be found with your head in the horse pond, like Pat Shea.’’ And then it tran- epired that Trooper Shea had been a de- voted admirer of pretty Mrs. Merri- weather while she was still housemaid at the Freemans and that Pat's deyo- tions were equally divided between her and Muldoon’s saloon until one winter’s

‘*Why, it’s Mr. Hunter!’’ she ‘said.

Sure, I knew the step before I saw

a! Come ix, Mr. Hunter! The ser- _--nt’s gone to the commissary, and I expect him back every minute.’’

But the trooper’s blue eyes glanced only indifferently into the coquettish aud smiling face.

‘“‘I was directed here,’’ he said, ‘‘to report to Sergeant Merriweather, but I'll go on down to the stables and stop on my return. Thank you, no!’’ be con- tinued, with cold courtesy, as she again urged that he should enter, and strode away stableward with more than one pair of eyes from the laundresses’ quar- ters gazing after him, those of Mrs. Merriweather being clouded and per- plexed.

It had been a perfect morning, keen and frosty at guard mount, but warmer as the sum wheeled high toward the zenith, and Atherton had had the regi- ment ont for drill. The broad prairie northeast of the post was alive with prancing, high mettled steeds, with dashing riders, and not a few carriages and Concord wugons, filled with /adies of the post, all rejoicing at havirg the regiment once more at home. For near- ly two hours Atherton had had the seven troops in rapid movement here and there and everywhere over the plain, and now, the drill over, troop after troop came marching sedately and quiet- ly homeward to cool and calm the Jorses before reaching stables. In full ranks 50 men at least to each company, ib their trim fitting fatigue dress and with the silken swallowtail waving 2 the head of each little column, thsy looked wonderfully businesslike ar! serviceable. The easy, practiced seat oi every man, the nonchalant grace of every pose, the resolute, dust covered, sometimes devil may care faces, a!! seemed thoroughly in keeping with tho scene and surroundings, thoroughly 1» accord with the buoyant action of the mettlesome mounts. Accustomed from boyhood to the best of horseflesh, a born rider and judge, Trooper Hunter could not but see that though these frontier steeds might lack the dainty trappings and satin coats of the park and avenues of Gotham, there were life aud spirit,

in each of the seven columns. Standing by the northward gate, be keenly studied

| whom in the eyes of the —th there liv- ed no grander potentate on earth. Then, the next thing Hunter knew, the troop came tripping by the line of picket fence on which he leaned, gazing out upon the spirited scene beyond, and now it

was his turn. The teachings of the old days in the famous regiment, wherein

kid gloves when not on military duty, were fresh in his mind, as he had been well schooled in the first principles of soldier duty. Yet Hunter felt the blood was mounting to his temples and his heart was beating quicker as he faced the coming column, braced his heels to- gether and raised his hand to the cap visor as Captain Gregg came ambling by. The big troop leader. glanced curi.

Before avother troop could pass him by, be moved quickly away, 20 yards or more beyond the gate, where he still could have a good look at the re- turning solidery, but was himself be- yond saluting distance. One after an- other the seven separate compact little columns of fours marched steadily in and jogged on down the gentle slope to- ward the huge wooden stables. He was still gazing in some odd fascination after the last, the roan troop, when the sound of bounding hoofs, whirring wheels and gay laughter recalled his wander- ing thoughts, and, turning sharply to the prairie once more, his eyes fell upon the foremost of the rapidly nearing car- ria-7es.

People Who Have Used It

Say that Dr. Chase’s Syrup of Linseed and Turpentine affords wonderfully prompt relief for coughs and_ colds. Iiverybody has confidence in Dr. Chase, in his great recipe book and famous family remedies. They have learned by experience that it pays to insist on hav- ing Dr. Chase’s Syrup of Linseed and Turpentine instead of accepting the various unscientific ‘‘mix-ups” which some druggists offer as “just as good.”

Dr. Chase’s Syrup of Linseed and Turpentine contains many of the most valuable and most effective remedial agents for throat and lung troubles that science has discovered. It acts so directly and promptly as to be of incalculable worth in all cases of croup, bronchitis and whooping cough. It is so far-reaching in its effects as to loosen tho tightest chest cough and cure the cold of long standing. 25c a bottle: family size, three times as much, Gc. at all dealers’, or Edman- gon, Bates & Co., Toronto.
