that he must have carried verbal orders

BlESF-GKER S SNYDER
The Colonel and the Soldier.
Col. Stephen A. Walker is tiu I'nited
.Mat- district attorney Ht er York city.
Walker had wered the Tnion in the in
nocuous position of assistant paymaster.
ne tlark day while Mr. Walker was
sitting in his ofliee wontieritifr ho lonu
he would lie compelled to " loaf," on the
ai-eount of the inability of 1'ncle taiu to
ty Ilia Iiova in blue, private soldier!
walked in and confronted him. The
.idier I-1oiiuh1 to a onnecticiit regi
ment. Iniairine the pay master's surprise,
when the follow inir conundrum was put
to him by the soldier.
" s-iv, w hen do ymi expect to pay n.
in. 11. anywav ? Wehavcn'l bad i i-eiit
now in three months."
The assistant paymaster glared at his
v isitor, and told him neither politely nor
religiously that it was none of his
business. This was far from satisfactory,
and the eoftlier proceeded :
" Hut it is my business, ami. and that is ;
I why I am here. The men are not treat-
j ed w ith justice, ami if tlie Tniled States
ain't able to pay them, why you can have
a draft on a New York bank for the ,
'amount due my regiment.
Of course there was no alternative left
to Col. Walker to regard the Cnnectictit ,
private as a crank. It remained only to
be sure just how dangerous a crank he
was.
"You'd 1 etter get back hi your camp ,
at once," said the paymaster. " Wlm
MVe you permission to come here, any-
way? Come, now get out, or 1 will ;
call tlie guard ami have you placed under j
arr.'-t. (lit !"
Suiting the action to the word the :
dou.dity paymaster arose and proceeded '
to " tire " the private. m i
" Hold on a minute ; lake your hand
oiH I tell you 1 mean what 1 say. I he- ;
long to the th Connecticut, and I can
afford to pay my regiment, if there's no
objection. Siuietliing might lo be done,
and I'm williiiL'to advance the money.
My mame is Klias Howe! "
This gave an entirely new aspect t the
case, and paymaster Walker grew ipiite
deferential. The man who stood before
hii.i was the famous inventor of the
sewing machine. He could pay his
regiment all their back pay: he had the
iiiiiiii'V loo. Colonel Walker thought, an
apology was demanded. The apology
was given and Klias received it with tin
air of a man who had but little to for
give. " Weil, colonel." saiii he, " wht-li this
trouble is over 1 want you to step. low n to
New York sometime and see inc! "
The colonel lived then in Vermont, and
w Ii-.-n the war w;is closed he managed to -tint!
himself in New York. He had
started a law office ; that is to say. he '
hehicd to occupy theotliceof a few friends I
of his. rii.siness was not very active,
i me day Walker thought he would step
in and see whether Klias Howe recalled
tin- misadventure of the war. Tw o years
had then elapsed. Klias Howe was there
and his memory was good. They sat
down together and talked. Howe was
from Massachusetts, Walker from Ver
mont Th;1 Howe machine company
had just been organized. Walker was
apiH.iuted its attorney. With an otlice
in ev. ry city, town ami hamlet in the
civilized world, no wonder the Howe
machine company was the foundation of
Walker's fortune. .v. ml Dn inil.-h.
