were still se*treW?ous he could play no
more. It was some^imnut^s that they
sat thus, noitlter speaking: and as he fc
gfflfned his sclf^ntrol and began to" at
tempt some simple little melodies, Mrs.
Waldron returned:
**IIow very domestic you look, young ?
people! Shall we light the lamps?**
"I've stayed too long already,*' said
Miss Travers, springing to her feet.
"Kate does not know I'm out. and will
be wondering what has become of her
sister.** She Laughed nervously. ^'Thank
you so much &r the musici Mr.. Hay ne!
Forgive my running off so suddenly,
! won't you, Sirs. Waldron?** 6he asked,
["pleadingly, as she put her hand in hers;
and as her hostess reassured her she bent
i and kissed the girl's flushed check. Mr.
j llayno was still standing patiently by
; the center table. Once more she turned,
?and caught Iiis eye, flushed, half hesi
tated, then- hvld out her hand with quick
impulse: -
"Good evening, Mr. Eayne. I shall J
hope to hear you play again.**
And, with pulses throbbing and cheeks
that still burned, she ran quickly down
the line to Capt. Kayners quarters, and
was upstairs and in her room in another
minute.
This was an interview she would find
it hard to tell to Kate. But told it was,
partially, and she was sitting now. late
at night, hearing through her c'osed
door her sister's unmusicai lamentations
?hearing still ringing in her ears the re
proaches heaped, upon her when that
sister was quietly told tliat she and Mr.
Hay re had met twice. And now she
: was sitting tfiere, true todzerself and her
resolution, te?ing Mr. Van Antwerp all
aboutit. Can one conjecture-the sensa
tions with which he received and read
that letter?
"Mr. Jiayne, too, was having & wakeful
night. He had gone to Mrs. Waldron's
to pay a dinner call, with the result just
told. He had one or two ether visits to
make among the cavalry households in
garrison, but, after a few moments' chat
with Mrs. Waldron, he decided that he
preferred going home. S?ni had 'to call

thought, bearing nothing. The doctor
came in soon after he finished his solitary
dinner, chatted with him awhile, and
smoked a wziy at Iiis pipe. ' He wanted to :

matter^ and ]he found it liard work to be

"To the best of my belief you were the

agree with Carlyle: the men we live and
move with are mostly fools.**
Hay no's face was as grave and quiet
as-ever.

?JJlH^ne,**^akl: the doctor, ^sometimes
f^Rave* thought you did not want to talk
about i his matter - to any soul on earth;
but I am speaking from no empty curi
osity now. If you forbid it, I shall not
intrude:, but there are some questions
that, since knowing you, and believing
in you as ! unquestionably do. 1 would
like to ask. You seem bent on returning
to duty here to-morrow, though you
might stay on sick report ten days yet:
and I want to stand between you and the
possibility of annoyance and trouble if 1
can.**
"You are kind, and I appreciate it,
doctor; but do you think tliat the colonel
is a man who will be apt to let me suffer
injustice at the hands of amr one here?"
"I don't, indeed. He is full of sympa
thy for you. and I know he means you
shall have fair play; but a company
commander has as many and a* intangi
ble ways of making a man suffer as has
a woman. ?ow"do you stand with Hay
ner?*'
"Precisely where I stood five years
ago He is the most determined enemy
1 have in the service, and will down me
if he. ran: but 1 have learned a good deal
in my time Tlnnv is a grim sort of com
fort now in knowing that while lie would
gladiy trip nie I ran make him miserable
by beinj: too strong for him.*"
"You still bold the same theory as tc

court? Of course I haye heard wliat you
said to and of him.** *
**1 bave never changed in that re
spect.**
"But supposing that?mind you, I be
lieve he was utterly mistaken in what
he thought he beard ami saw?suppos
ing that all that was tcstimtl to by him
actually oa'tirrcd, bave you any theory
that would j>oint out the real criminal?*
-."Only one. If that money was ever
handed me that day at Battle Butte,
only one man could have made away
with it: and it is useless to charge it to
him.**
"You mean Hayner?**
"I have to mean Hayner. "
"But you claim it never reached you?**
"(>rtainry;**
"Yet every other package, memo
randa and all, was handed you?"
"Not only that, but Capt. Hull handed
me the money packet with the others
took them all from his saddle bags just
before the charge. The packet was sealed
when he gave it to me. and when I broke
the seal it was stuffed with worthless
blanks*"
"And. you have never suspected a sol
dier?a single messenger or servant?"
"Not one. Whom could I?"
. "Hayne, had you any knowledge of
-this man Clancy before?**
"Clancy! The drunken fellow we
pulled out of the fire?"
"3Wj?an*ef" '
"No: never to my knowledge saw or
heard of him, except when he appeared
as witness at the court."
"Yet he was with the?th cavalry at
that very fight at Battle Butte. He was
a sergeant then, though not in Hull's
troop.**
"Does he say he knew me? or does he
talk of that affair?" asked the lieutenant,
with sudden interest,
"Not that. Ho cannot be said to say
anything; but he was wonderfully af
fected over your rescuing him?strange
ly so, one of the nurses persistsjn telling
me, though the steward and Mrs. Clancy
declare it was just drink and excitement.
Still, 1 have drawn from him that he
knew you well by sight during that cam
paign; but he says he was not by when
Hull was killed."
"Does he act as though he knew any
thing that could throw any light on the
matter?"
"I cannot say. His wife declares he
has been queer all winter?hard drink
ing?and of course that is possible."
- "Sam told me there was a soldier here
two nights ago who wanted to talk with
me, but the man was drunk, and^ae
would not let him in or tell me. He
thought he wanted to borrow money.n
"I declare, I believe it was Clancy!"
said the doctor. "If he wants to see you
and talk, let him. There's no telling but
what even a drink racked brain may
bring the matter to light.**
And long that night Mr. Hayne sat
there thinking, partly of what the doc
tor had said, but more of what had oc
curred during the late afternoon. Mid
&ight.was called by the sentries. Ho
went to his door and looked out on the
broad, bleak prairie, the moonlight glint
ing on the tin roofing of the patch of
build) tgs over at the station far across
the dreary level and glistening on the
patches of snow that here and there
streaked the surface. It was ail so cold
and calm and still. His blood was hot
and fevered. Something invited him
into the peace and purity of the night.
He threw on his overcoat and furs and
strolled up to the gateway, past the si
lent and deserted store, whose lighted
bar and billiard room was generally the
last thing to close along Prairie axenue.
There was-not a glimmer of light about
the quarters of the trader or the sur
geon's beyond. One or two faint gleams
stole through the blinds at the big hos
pital, and told of the night watch by
some fevered bedside He passed on
around the fence and took a path that
led to the target ranges north of the post
and back, of officers', row, thinking deep
ly all the while; and finally, re-entering
the . garrison by the west gate, he came
down along the hard graveled walk that
passed in circular sweeps the offices and
and the big house of the colonel com
manding, and then bore straight away
in front of the entire line.
Ail was darkness and quiet. He passed
in succession the houses of the field offi
cers of the cavalry, looked longingly at
the darkened front of Maj. Waldron's
cottage, where he had lived so sweet an
hour before the setting of the last sun,
then went on again and paused surprised
in front of Capt.^ Rayner's. A bright
light was still burning in the front room
on the second floor. Was she, too, awake
and thinking, of that interview? He
looked wistfully at the lace curtains that
shrouded the interior, and then the clank
of a cavalry saber sounded in his ears,
and a tall officer came springily across j
the road.
"Who the devil's tliatT was the blunt
'military greeting.
\ "Mr. Hayne<" was the quiet reply.
"What? Mr. Hayne? Oh! Beg "your
pardon, man?couldn't imagine who it
was mooning around out here after mid
night."
"I don't wonder," answered Hayne.
A'iaui- ratlier given to late hours, and
after rcading'a long time I often take a
stroll before turning in."
"Ali, yes; I see. Well, won't you drop
in and. chat awuile? I'm officer of the
day, and have to owl to-night."
**Tljanks, no, not this time; ? must go
to bed. Good night. Mr. Blake."
"Good night to you, Mr. Hayne," said
Blake, then stood gazing perplexedly
after him. "Now, my fine fellow," was
his dissatisfied query, "what on earth
do ybu mean by prowling around Kay
ner s atthisdiour of the night?"
