And hopo that wind or tide or sea
Some day may bo Induced by Fate
To bring some good thing here to me.
112 put off work, I make delays.
for what's the use of eager haste;
The man who labors all his days
Lets much sweet leisure goto waste.
I sit and dream day after day
Of things that might be brought to me
If Fortune turned a certain way
To put me next with Destiny.
What matter if I sit alone
And hope to reap rich crops galore
From tields that X have never sown?
Have such tilings not been done before?
I know the ringing brook may not
Sit still and yet keep getting on;
Kut work's a bore, and who knows what
May come before to-morrow's dawn?
The stars come nightly to the sky,
The tidal wave unto the sea;
AVhy may not something, then, if I
Keep right on waiting, come to me?

"Yes, sir," answered the boy,
straightening up to attention. Then,
scrupulously exchanging salutes, the
old soldier and the young parted com
pany, and the major returned to re
ceive flic reports of the old and new
officers of the day. These gentlemen
Were still with him, Capt. Chew, of
the infantry, and the senior first
lieutenant for duty with the —th,
when Hay came hurrying tip the
board walk from the direction of the
fctore. For reasons of his own, Webb
liad sent his orderly to the guard
bouse to say to the officers in ques
tion that he would await them at his
quarters instead of the little building
known as the adjutant's office, in
which were the offices of the com
mander, the record room in which
were placed the desks of the ser
geant major and his three clerks, and
the sleeping rooms of the special
duty soldiers. It had happened more
than once in the past that garris'on
stories of matter- not supposed to
be known outside the office had been
traced back to that desk room, and
now Webb's quest i< ns of his old of
ficer of the day, and his instructions
to the new, were riot things he cared
to have bruited a!out the post. He
•was listening intently to the captain's
icport of the sentries' observations
during the night gone by when Hay
reached the gate anil stopped, not
wishing to intrude at such a moment.
"Come in, Mr. Hay," said the com
mander, cordially. "This all will in
terest you," and, thus bidden, the
trader joined the soldiers three on
1 lie veranda, and some of the young
people of the garrison, setting tip
their croquet arches on the parade,
looked curiously toward the group,
jind wondered what should keep the
old officer of the day so long. Saun
tering down the walk, smiling radi
antly upon the occupants of the vari
ous verandas that she passed, then
beaming between times into the face
of her smitten escort, her black eyes
and white teeth flashing in the rare
sunshine, .Nanette Flower was gradu
ally nearitig the ma jor's quarters.
She was barely 20 yards away when,
in obedience to some word of the
ma jor, Mr. Hay held forth two white
packages that, even at that distance,
could be recognized, so far as the
outer covering was e mcerned, as of
ficial envelopes. She was too far
away, perhaps, to hear what was said.
"It seems," began Webb, to his of
ficers, as he mechanically opened the
first packet, "that Field took fire at
Wilkins' prowls about the bother of
keeping his funds, so the youngster
stowed his money with Tiny. He in
sisted on turning over everything
before he left, SO I receipted to him.
Let's see*" iie continued, glancing at
the memorandum in his hand. "Three
hundred and seventy-two dollars and
eighty-five cents post fund, and four
hundred belonging to enlisted men.
I may as well count it in your pres
ence,"
By this time the long, lean fingers
had ripped open the package marked
four hundred, and were extracting
the contents a sheet of official paper
with figures and memoranda, and
then a flat package, apparent!)', of
currency. Topmost was a .'fj treasury
note; bottommost, another of the
same denomination. Between them,
deftly cut, trimmed and sized, were
blank slips of paper to the number of
perhaps .'!0, and the value of not one
•cent. With paling foe s, the officers
watched the trembling fingers slash
•open the second, its flap, as was that
of the first envelope, securely
gummed not -ealed. A niekel or two
anil a few dimes slid out before the
packet i tune. It was of like con
sistency with first, i ml of almut the
Kunie .'line. Webb lifted up hi ; eyes
and looked (might into the a nut'ed—
a lino t livid 'ace of the trader.
"M) Coil! Major Wenb," eried Hay,
aghast and bewildered. "Don't lot k
nt me like that! No man on earth
lifts eier accused me of a crime. 'I his
tneans that not only my stable tmt
my saf has been robbed and there
is a tiait >r within ui) it *."

words eloquent, hail no ears for thone

trader's excited outburst. He only
saw her suddenly flinch, suddenly
pale, then sway. His ready arm was
around her in a twinkling. 11l a
twinkling she twisted free from, his
undesired clasp.
"Just tny foot turned—a pebble!"
she gasped.
But when, all assiduity, Tracy
would have seated her nil the horse
block and examined the delicate
ankle, she refused straightway, and
with almost savage emphasis, and
with rigid lips, from which all loveli
ness had tied, bade bins lead her
home, where, despite protest and ap
peal, personal ami professional, she
dismissed him ourtly.
CIIAI'TEB VI.
Ray's gallant half hundred, as has
been said, took the route for the
north at break of day. Before them
spread the open prairie; apparently
level and unbroken for full five miles
to the front and either flank, the dis
tant slopes and ridges bounding the
level expanse growing more distinct
with every moment, and presently
lighting up in exulting radiance in
response to the rosy blushes of the
eastward sky. Scorning the dusty
stage road, the troop commander
pointed to a distant height just visi
ble against the northward horizon,
bade the leading guide march straight
on that; then gave the order, "Bight
by twos," that lie might the more
readily note the gait and condition
of every horse and the bearing and
equipment of his rider. There was
still time to weed out the weaklings of
either class should any such there be.
liiding slowly along the left flank, one
after another, he carefully scanned
every man and mount in his little de
tachment, then, at quicker pace,
passed around to the eastward side
of the column, and as critically,
carefully studied them from that
point of view. A light of quiet satis
faction shone in his fine, dark eyes,
as he finished, for, next to his wife
and children, that troop was Bay's
supreme delight. The preliminary
look-over by lantern light had been
all sufficient. This later inspection
on the move revealed not a steed
amiss, not an item of equipment
either misplaced or lacking.
As has been said, Bay's senior
subaltern was on detached service.
His junior, Mr. Clayton, had joined
but the year before, and this threw
Mr. Field in comn and of the leading
platoon and to the side of the leading
guide. Now, as the senior officer
took the head of column and Mr.
Clayton fell back to the rear, the si
lence of the first inile of march was
broken and, though sitting erect in
saddle and forbidden to lounge or
"slouch," the troop began its morn
ing interchange of chaff and com
ment. Every mother's son of them
rejoiced to be once more afield with
a chance of stirring work ahead.
"It's time to throw out our ad
vance, Field," said Bay, in kindly, cor
dial tone, as he scanned the low di
vide still some miles ahead and reined
in beside the stern-faced young sol
dier. "Send Sergeant Scott forward
with three men and the same number
on each flank—corporals in charge."
lie had more than liked Webb's
adjutant. He had been bis stanehest
friend and supporter among the
troop and company commanders,
and was eager to befriend him now.
lie had expressed no wish to have
him sent 011 the hurried move, but
well he knew the post commander's
reasons and approved his course,
.'•till, now that Field was being re
moved, for the time at least, from
the possibility of an entangling al
liance that might prove disastrous,
in every way in his power Kay meant
to show the mortified, indeed sorely
angered, officer that his personal re
gard for him had suffered 110 change
whatever. If lie could succeed in
winning Field's confidence it might
well be that lie could bring him to
see that there were good and suffi
cient grounds for the post command
er's action—that for Field's own
good, in fact, it was a most desirable
move. The soul of loyalty and
square dealing him: elf, Bay had never
for a moment dream-d that, anything
other than a foolish escapade had
occurred—a ride by moonlight, per
haps, demanded of her devotee by a
thoughtless, thoroughbred coquette,
whose influence over the young fel
low was beginning to mar his use

pects. .lust what to think of .Na
nette Flower Bay really did not
know. Marion, his beloved better
half, was his unquestioned authority
in all such matters, and it was an
uncommon tenet of that young ma
tron never to condemn until she had
cause. Instinctively she shrank from
what she had seen of Miss Flower,
even though her woman's eye re
joiced in the elegance of Miss Flow
er's abundant, toilets; and conscious
of her intuitive aversion, she would
utter no word that might later prove
unjust. Oddly enough, that instinct
ive aversion was shared by her clos
est friend and neighbor, Mrs, I'.lake;
but, as yet, the extent of their con

CAMBRON COUNTY PRESS, THURSDAY, JULY 23, 1903
Without n word of reply, Field
reined out of column, glanced along
the* double tile of his platoon, nod
ded a signal "fall out" to Sergeant
Scott, and the men nearest him at
the front, merely said "advance
puard," and then proceeded to choose
his corporals and men for Hankers.
No need to tell Scott what to do!
lie had been leading scouts in Arizo
na long ere Field had even dreamed
of West Point. In live minutes, rid
ing at easy lope, carbines advanced,
three little parties of four troopers
each were spreading far out to the
front and flank, guarding the little
column against the possibility of sud
den assault from hidden foe.
And at this moment the situation
was grave in the extreme. There
had been bad blood and frequent
collision between the cattlemen,
herders, "hustlers"—especially hus
tlers and the hunting parties of the
Sioux and the Northern Cheyenne,
who clung to the Big Horn range
and the superb surrounding country
with almost passionate love and with
jealous tenacity. There had been ag
gression on both sides, then blood
shed, then attempts on part of fron
tier sheriffs to arrest accused or sus
pected red men, and equally deter
mined and banded effort to prevent
arrest of accused and identified
whites. 15y due process of law, as
administered in the days whereof we
write, the Indian was pretty sure to
get the worst of every difference, and
therefore, preferred, not unnatur
ally, his own time-honored methods
of settlement. In accordance there
with, had they scalped the sheriff's
posse that had shot two of their

young braves who had availed them
selves of a purposely given chance
to escape, and then iu their undis
criminating zeal, the Sioux had
opened fire from ambush on Plod
der's hunting parties and the chop
pers at the wood camp, who defend
ed themselves as best they could, to
the end that more men, red and
white, were killed. The Indians ral
lied in force and closed in about
Fort Keeclier, driving the survivors
to shelter within its guarded lines,
and then, when Plodder needed every
man of his force to keep the foe at
respectful distance, so that his bul
lets could not reach the quarters
occupied by the women and children
at the post, there reached him by
night a runner from the stage sta
tion far over to the southeast, on a
dry fork of tlie Powder, saying that
the north and southbound stages had
taken refuge there, with only ten
men, all told, to stand off some 50
warriors, and therefore imploring as
sistance. Not daring to send a troop,
Plodder called for volunteers to bear
dispatches lo Maj. Webb, at Frayne,
and Pat Kennedy, with half a dozen
brave lads, had promptly stepped
forward. Kennedy had managed to
slip through the encircling Sioux by
night, and to reach Fort Frayne
after a daring and almost desperate
ride. Then Kay was ordered forth,
first to raise the siege at the stage
station, then, either to hold that im
portant relay ranch or goon to re
inforce Plodder, as his judgment and
the situation might dictate.
He knew enough of the stout
adobe walls of the corral on the Dry
Fork, and of the grit of the few de
fenders, to feel reasonably sure that,
with ammunition, provisions and wa
ter in plenty, they could easily hold
out a week if need be against the
Sioux, so Ion;* as they fought on the
defensive and the Indians were not
strongly reinforced. He reasoned
that Slabber and his people were
probably gene to strengthen the at
tack, and that having an hour's start
at least, and riding faster, they would
ovt there somewhat ahead of hint.
lint one of his own old sergeants, a
veteran of "() years in the cavalry,
v.n.i now stationuiaster on the Dry
Fork, and all the Sioux from the
Platte to Paradise could'nt stampede
old Jim Kelly. Many a forced march
had Kay made in the past, and well
lie knew that the surest way to bring
liis horses into action, strong and
sound at. the finish, was to move
, "slow and steady" at. the start, to
move at the walk until the horses
were calm anil quiet, was his rule.
Then on this bright September day
would come the alternating trot and
lope, with brief halts to reset sad
dles; then, later still, the call upon

fleet-footed creature to innd gallop
! ill the effort to reach the cover of the
| projecting point of bluft across the
shallow ra\inc that cut iu toward the
! foothills. Stone, the trooper, lifted
I his campaign hat on high once, and
I then lowered his arm to the hori
zontal, hat in hand, pointing in the
direction the darting savage was
seen, and thus, without a syllable
having been spoken at the front,
word was passed into Hay that one
Indian had been sighted far out to
the northwest.
"They may try to hold us among
the breaks of the Mini Pusa," said
lie, to his still unreconciled second in
command. Field had been civil, re
spectful, nut utterly uncommunica
tive in his replies to the captain's
repeated cordialities. Any attempt
to even remotely refer to the causes
that led to his being ordered out
with the detachment had bt en met
with chilling silence. Now, how
ever, the foe had been seen and
could be counted onto resist if his
rallied force much exceeded that of
the troop, or to annoy it by long
range lire if too weak to risk other
encounter. The command halted one
moment at the crest to take one
long, lingering look at the JJOW far
distant, post beyond the l'latte; then,
swinging again into saddle, moved
briskly down into the long, wide hol
low between them and the next di
\ide, well nigh three miles across,
and as they reached the low ground
and traversed its little draining
gully, a muttered exclamation "book
there!" from the lips of the iirst
sergeant, called their attention again
to the far left front. Stone, tho
trooper who had reported the first
Indian, had turned his horse over to
the second man, as had the corporal
on that flank, and together they
were crouching up along the eastward
face of a billowing hillock, while,
straight to the front Sergeant Scott,
obedient to a signal from his left
hand man, was speeding diagonally
along the rise to the north, for all
three advance troopers had halted
and two were cautiously dismount
ing. Kay watched one moment, with
kindling eyes, then turned to his
young chief of platoons:
"Take your men. Field, and be
ready to support. There's something
behind that second ridge!"
CHAPTER vrr.
As Webb had predicted, even be
fore nine o'clock, came prompt, spir
ited response from Laramie, where
the colonel had ordered the four
troops to prepare for instant march,
and had bidden the infantry to be
ready for any duty the general m'glit
order. From Omaha—department
headquarters—almost on the heels
of the Laramie wire came cheery
word from their gallant chief:
"Coming to join you noon train to
day. Cheyenne 1:I!0 to-morrow.
Your action in sending Kay's troop
approved. Hold others in readiness
lo move at a moment's notice. Wire
further news North l'latte, Sidney
or ("heyenno to meet me."
Ever> body, of course, was aware
by eight o'clock that Field had gone
with Kay, and while no officers pre
sumed to ask if it was because Kay,
or Field, had applied for the detail,
no woman would have been restrained
therefrom by any fear of Webb. Well
lie realized this fact, and, dodging the
first that sought to waylay him on
the walk, he had later intrenched
himself, as it were, in his office, where
Dade, lilake and the old post surgeon
had sat with him in solemn conclave
while Kill llay brought his clerk, bar
keeper, storekeeper, I'ete, the general
utility man, and even "Crapaud," t lie
ha If breed, to swear in succession they
had no idea who could have tampered
with either the safe or the stables.
Closely had they been cross-ex
amined; and, going away in turn,
they told of the nature of the cross
examination; yet to no one of their
number had been made known what
had occurred to cause such close
questioning, llay had been forbidden
to speak of it, even to his household.
The offieers-of-tlie-day were sworn to
secrecy. Neither Wilkins nor the act
ing adjutant was closeted with the
council, and neither, therefore, could
do more than guess at the facts. Yet
that somebody knew, ii> oart at least,
the trend of suspicion, was at once
apparent to Webb and his councilors
I when, about nine o'clock, he took
Make and Dade to s>e those sig
nificant "bar shoe" hoof prints,
livery one of them hart disappeared.
"liy jovc!" said Webb, "1 know now
I should have set a sentry with orders
I to let no man walk <*~ ride about
I here. See! lie's used his foot to
smear this and • this —and here
again!"
