"Then you're Just the man we want" That afternoou as the Union Pacific express stood ready at tho TJnlon sta tion for the start there boarded one of the sleepers a burly, thickset, bluff mannered man In a huge fur overcoat, closely followed by two younger com panions. One of these latter, erect nd graceful In bearing, alert and quick In every movement, with clear cut and handsome features, was dress ed with care and taste, evidently a man accustomed to metropolitan scenes and society. The other, a youth of probably his own age. though look ing older, was sallow, shabby, with a dejected, down at the heel expression to his entlro personality that told In fallibly of failure nnd humiliation. "Better pull off that overcoat and make yourself comfortable. Lowndes," said the younger man. "You've a long Journey ahead." Whereat a tall, spare, elderly gen tleman in an adjoining section slowly lowered his newspaper and turned half round, while a tall, spare, elderly, sharp featured woman beside him in prim traveling garb sprang from" her tllEBE EXTEKED A TERT SELF rOSSBSSKD TOU.NO MJlX. seat and, brushing the burly man aside, precipitated nerserf upon the shrinking object in the corner.

Colonel Biggs, his Jeal ously regarded rival, was seated nt a little table. Lieutenant Lanier, some what pale, but entirely placid, occupied H choir to the left of that table, with Captain Sumter, as his troop command er and" counsel, by his side. Captain Snnllle was iu support of the post commander to cross question If he saw fit. Barker, the adjutant, was present, as n matter of course.

"Yes, Colonel Biggs; if this man's a soldier why isn't ho in uniform?" With perfect respect, at a nod from Biggs, tho newcomer replied, "My uniforms and pthcr belongings of mine were taken from my trunk in town duriug my absence." ' "You could bovo borrowed one," said Bundle truculently. "I told him ho need not," retorted Rlggs. "Mr. Bawflon, you were a duly enlisted trooper, I believe. ' Take that chair."
