Maia waring carried a conversational

| chip on bis shoulder even at dinner par-

ties, and tonight it had been more than ordinarily in evidence. It was after din- ner and before visitors came dropping in, and the five ladies were chatting in the parlor, that Mrs. Mainwaring’s con- straint toward Mrs. Blake became mark- ed, as well as her frequent efforts at breaking in upon the cordial, friendly

| talk between that lady and her niece.

Finally, just after midnight, when it was time for all to be going to their homes, Blake, whose duty as officer of the day bad twice called him away, again was missing. Ray promptly threw his cape over his shoulders to escort Mrs. Blake, although she lived close at hand, and with merry chat and laughter

| the various ladies and their escorts were

trooping forth into the keen night air, when Mrs. Truscott, who was foremost, held up her band and said, ‘‘Hush! 1 hear something,’’ and her face took on an instant expression of alarm.

The wind was no longer violent, but it blew with steady force across the parade, and sounds from the direction of the guardhouse near the south gate or the stables along the east front were carried out to the waste of prairie stretching away toward the far, pine crested heights of the Elk range. Yet it was toward the guardhouse, whose twinkling lights could be plainly seen, that Mrs. Trvscott was gazing. Main- waring was, as usual, talking loudest of the party and was the last to cease. ‘*Nonsemse, Mrs. Truscott, you can’t hear the baby crying,’’ he almost de- risively exclaimed, whereat the lady stamped a shapely foot and spoke as her father, their old colonel, would have spoken when his wife was not present, and this tithe with effect.

Some one, panting, came running across the parade. It was the corporal of the guard.

‘Captain Ray,’’ he cried, ‘‘Captain Blake says please come to him quick at the south gate.’’

Ray went like a shot. The corporal started to follow, but. Mrs. Blake, alarmed and trembling, begged him to stop.

‘*What’s happened?’’ Mainwari=g. ‘‘ Who's burt?’’

But Mrs. Blake knew ber own mind, and without a word of reply started straight across the road in the direction taken by Ray.

‘*Oh, don’t go, Mrs. Blake.’’ ‘*Don’t Nannie.”’ ‘‘I’m sure it’s nothing serious,’’ were the various cries that followed her, but she never faltered. **Good night,’’ she cried. ‘‘I’m going Reluctantly the doctor called after her:

‘“‘Oh, wait, Mrs. Blake. go, I’1lI—I’ll escort you.’’

‘*Yes,’’ said Miss Leroy firmly, ‘‘and take metoo.’’ Saying which, she started her escort aimost on &@ run.

% night in a Iurid giare and as suddenly died out of sight. Away over beyond the edge of the bluff a dull, smothered, booming sound smote the wintry air, and something shook the windows and caused the earth to tremble. Thena carbine cracked and a sentry yelled, half stifled; then came a distant sound of crackling, like pistol shots; a trumpet pealed and sounds of rush and scurry followed. There was only one explana- tfon—the magazine.

CHAPTER X.

It was 11:30 that night when Cor- poral Judkins, posting his relief, came stumbling along the rough ground be- low the ‘‘bench’’ and turned into the flat between the quartermaster’s hay- stacks and the stableg No. 5 he had posted at the east gate and picked up the shivering sentry who for two mortal hours had been swearing and trotting up and down in vain effort to keep warm. No. 6, down among the shadows of the stacks and stables, was not 80 easy to find. When at last his challenge was beard, he leaped from the shelter of the very stack that had called forth

at stables, and, between oold and ex- citement—or something, was incoherent iu his formula for receiving relief, and nad to be sharply prompted by the cor- poral in turning over his orders. ‘*What's the matter with you, Scully?"’ snarled the corporal. ‘‘You tulk as if you'd been asleep. Turn over your or- ders, man, and don't keep us shivering here. ’*

Tho tall seldier who was to rolieve

“him stood patiently, with bis carbine at port. Silently he listened to the mumbled words: ‘‘Allow no one to ap- proach the stables or stacks with light- ed.pipe or cigar. Allow no vehicles to be driven to or from the stables or horses taken ont except in presence of a commissioned officer, stable sergeant or noncommissioned officer of the guard. Be on the alert for fires and keep special lookout for the sparks from laundresses’ quarters when they start their fires in the morning’’— And then Judkins cut him short.

“You've got ‘em twisted, but you know them all, don’t you, Hunter?’’

The tail recruit nodded.

‘‘Tuke your post,’’ said the corporal. ‘Fall in, Scully. Darned lot of use you'd be tonight. You smell asif you’d been drinking.’’

‘*[ wish I had, bedad,’’ shivered No.

Along the bluff to the westward the black bulk of the barracks loomed up against the star- ry sky. Between him and them were close at haa@ the huge haystacks, and then the scattered huts and cottages of the married men. In one or two ol these faint night lights were glowing.
