Lord Lunemouth is traveling for his health and has been advised to seek the glorious climate of California, but bas met with unpleasant experiences on the way. His train was held up by desperadoes in Wyoming, the passengers were robbed and his per- sonal losses consisted of some $200 in casb, @ superb watch and a handsome, silver topped flask, the armsof his noble house engraved on the stopper. The lat- ter he valued as a keepsake. Here fol- lows,’’ said Mr. Rawson, ‘‘a description of the arms.

It was yiven to me by a member of the house of Lancaster months ago. At the time of the train robbery it was not in my possession at all. For further infor- mation on that bead I must refer you to Major Mainwaring.’’ **House of Lancaster be blowed!’’ was that veteran’sexplosive reply. ‘‘It was in wy house right here at Ransom at that very time.

A remarkable winter, from a cavalry point of view, was that, the first which the old regiment spent at Ransom, but, like many other tkings temporal and most things military, it came to an end and people looking back upon it after ward declared they were rather sorry, after all, for there was so much to make it vividly interesting at the time and tc form topics for taik in the weeks t: come.

Between him and Mainwaring was patched a truce, based primarily on the latter’s admission that he had prgb- ably made a mess of the whcle business, but really couldn’t be held respoysib! in the face of such testimony as was 0! fered by prominent officers of the —ti: Messrs. Brady and Rawson. Then Blak apologized for comparing the head c the junior major to the wreck of th magazine, and peace with honor, thoug! not without difficuity, was establishe: so far as the men were concerned. | was, in fact, less difficult than in th: case of the women, for Miss Leroy had i¢ seems, a very pretty will of her ow: that Mrs. Mainwaring could neithe bend nor break.

It stung Mrs. Mainwea ing that her niece should have, as sh said to her and whispered to others, s little pride. The story spread in th regiment through what was whispere« not through what was said, and Mi Leroy, already popular, became a hi favorite forthwith. She had come to spend the winter but as soon as the holidays were ove and her precious post children had the Christmas tree and other Christma joys—even before the new year wu: fairly ushered in—she returned fron the morning reading one day and found irs. Mainwaring impatiently awaitin; her. There were invitations for dinner: etc., extending a week, even ten days ahead, and Mrs. Mainwaring wisbed t know which it was her niece’s pleasur: to accept and was aghast at the rep! Leroy most seriously up to Jan. 5, none for her after tha date, as sbe would then have to retur! to New York. Remonstranee proved utterly useless. The second week in January saw Mis: Leroy, accompanied to the station by most of the ladies and a few of thei: lords, safely aboard the east bound train, with old 783 and Jimmy Long in the lead. There were dozens of the chil- dren there to bid her goodby. There were even a number of enlisted mes, with whom she warmly shook hands before she took her seat in tha roomy Pullman. devoted friends, wevt with her as far as Omaha, where she was to join another party. Mrs. Mainwaring fairly dis- solved in tears as they kissed each other goodby, for, after all, Kate was the daughter of a long loved, long Jost brother, if she was headstrong and in- dependent, and never yet had woman left the dingy precincts of old Ransom so generally and thoroughly esteemed. But every one wondered for all that —even the mapy who would not give their thought expression—whether an understanding did not exist, whether she was not going with the expectation te? meeting somewhere the remarkable recruit by the name of Hunter, for Hinnter had Jeft on a month’s furlough just ten days before. Mrs. Mainwaring declared that Kate’s sole reason for going was that sbe was too conscientions. She found her health restored, no one remembered having heard of it as impaired, and she felt she must returu to her kindred in the east and resume her interrupted duties there. But Mrs. Stannard and other wise wom- n well knew that the main reason for ier going was that life with Uncle and Aunt Mainwaring was not as peaceful r congenial, despite their pride in and affection for her, as it should have been. And then there was s?ill another and more vital reason. ‘‘Everybody’’ wa: talking about ber interest in Troope: jjunter and his undoubted admiration for her. But Hunter had had to go back to duty wif® his troop, had met Miss Leroy only on the long afternoons and svenings when he, with two or three sther bluejackets, worked at the fes- tooning and decorating under her active supervision of the post assembly hall. Then he had had an interview with Ray, his captain, that brought matters to a climax. He applied for and received his furlough in the midst of the holi- days, left his kit with the first sergeant, his uniform with Murray, the oarpen- ter, and Butte in a snowstorm, the Pullman smoker, and familiar looking tweeds, traveling cap, and ulster, at which Jim Long stared in astonished recognition when as he alighted from his cab at the Junction a swell civilian stepped up and smilingly tendered hin @ cigar. Whatever clouds had lowered ove: the house of Hunter were wafied away the night of that decisive conference 0! the powers, when Stannard and Trus- cott demolished the theories of Main- waring and the aspersions of Brady and company. Even Conway had limpet cut of his buggy a few days later to say be, too, had been fooled. (He was des- tined to be fooled still more when a@ jai) delivery turned loose his seven star per- formers on Christmas eve.) Corporal Croxford and Trooper Elzey still main- tained their conviction of Hunter’s guilt until Mrs. Merriweather weaken- ed over her busband’s death and con- firmed bis whole confession. The Kid was enjoying a temporary relapse into virtue and was wearing a halo until pay day. Mrs. Merriweather, bailed out by Freeman, was living in temporary retirement in Butte, yet already begin- ning to ‘‘take notice,’’ and all Ranson was wondering what Trooper Hunter had gone on 80 days’ furlough for and betting twe to one that he never would come back, when he suddenly came.
