NE more witness nppenred bo- foro this court that tiny ami with him the tnll, elderly civilian who had arrived from the cast Mr. Arnold enmc In with n very puzzled look In his face. "Thank you for coming, Mr. Ar nold," said Itlggs, with bluff civility. Tray take this chair, sir. As I have explained to you, Mr. Lowndes, your nephew could not be compelled to tes tify before a military court and need not make public admission hero of what ho told us at Ilawdon's demand during our Journey hither. I hopo this Is fully understood." Mr. -Arnold cleared his Ihroat, and ho began: "My unhappy nephew realizes with, I trust, genuine contrition mat ne nas been the cause of grave trouble, not only to lis. his kindred lu the east, but or to ymi military gentlemen In the Vest. Bo has, prompted, ns we must admit, by Mr. Mr. Rawdon, made a clean breast of his lamentable con duct and has pjomlsed Mr. Rawdon to repeat every word of It er to Colonel Button, but ns his" "Then we'll waste no time," said lllggs Impatiently. "We'll have him, In, and I can catch the afternoon train. Ah, come. In, Mr. Lowndes. Sit down, J sir." It was but n dejected specimen of a college bred man that sank Into the chair In front of Itlggs. "Mr. Lowndes," said Itlggs nbruptly, "there Is no need of going over tho entire story. I'll ask you to answer certain questions. Who was your ear liest friend In this regiment?' g The dreary eyes- turned, once moro t6"?sil Pb. ""1 the nervous' hands Btnrret jiie slouch hatln swifter revo lution, . JWIc, Lanier, sir." ' . . "IIow came that?' , ' . "I knew he. was ofiriy college fra- ternlfv before J entered college and was-bTIII "half flrunTi" Sonio one told him of Kelly's arrest and charged hltn with that and with running off tho Fosters' sleigh, lie dared not face the music. He forgot his precious mis sive to Porn Mnyhew until next day. Then the storm held him. Not until the lire night did he summon up cour nge to sneak home, lie had no money left and could buy no more liquor. He stole Into Lanier's back door to return the civilian suit and recover the caval ry blouse and trousers left hanging In Paffcrty's room. He could hear the lieutenant moving about overhead. Ho had to strike a light. Ho struck sev eral maU-hes, found the clothes, slip ped out of the "cits" nnd Into his own. He was cold nnd numb, lie know there was liquor on tho sideboard in tho middle room. The croze was on him, and lie risked It. He struck more matches nnd threw the burning stumps to the floor, drank his till, then stum bled away, intending to give himself up to his first sergeant for absence without leave. Hack round by way of the store nnd the east front he went, but before he could reach the bar racks came the appalling cry of fire Lanier's quarters his doing beyond doubt, nnd now, lu dismay nnd terror, he fled from the iost. Poor Cary had Lanier to plead for him before his trial, but three mouths' hard labor was the least the law would allow. (To Bo CoutinnecY) WOMEN'S HAm -M t l MRS.

""'i'tS, sir. llsLe made mo at home In M3 quftrfers-ani tent' "Shnred the best he had with you home, food, drink, even clothes and money I'm told." J'It "is all true, sir." lei OU IJUUHVICU WIIU Ul" uu.- Ing the campaign." "I lost money gambling, and he Wouldn't lend me nny more." "Did you ever pay what he had lent you?" "Not-yet. sir." "Even after your quarrel did he not aid you?" "Yes, at Laramie. I didn't seem to have any friend left by that time and bad to go to him for help when they wired me to come home." "In point of fact, ho enabled you to get $100 at Laramie?" "Yes; I gave my note and he gave his word." "What did you do with the money?" "Tried to win back somo that I had lost nt noker and lost most of what 1 had raised. I suppose I'd have lost all of It If Rawdon hadn't caught me play ing nnd pulled me out" "You owed him still more?" "Nearly 200, sir." "Did you go homer "I couldn't. I had only enough to bring mo to Cushlng, and they wouldn't send me nny more. I had to go to tho ranch and stay." with tho first cap he could reach, and I followed, knowing now it wasn't Are, but robbery. Then when I realized no life was In danger I remembered I Mas In arrest, dropped the chase and went straight to my quarters. Both bauds were bruised and left badly cut. I am sorry, of course, to have struck Sergeant Fltzroy, but the language ho used was vile, ami it seemed to mo the only way to convince him I was not Trooper Rawdon." "Colonel Button, have you nny ques tions?" demanded Riggs. "Why didn't you tell mo this?" de manded Button. "I should havo been glad to, colonel. Indeed, I tried to tho last time I was in the olllce." "Well, gentlemen," said the colonel, "wo Beem to havo stirred up n pretty kettlo of fish." Yet even Snnlllo dis owned complicity. Ho always had said Lanier was a perfect gentleman. And so ended Bob's urrcst. Rawdon lingered for a word with Cnssldy, Qulnlan nnd poor remorseful Rafferty; then followed, unhampered even by hla arch enemy, Fltzroy, who slipped away to tho stables three minutes after tho close of tho conference. But he was not even there when, along In tho spring, Mr. nnd Mrs. Rawdon camo out for n visit to Dr. Mnyhew Like Rawdon, ho had received his dis charge. Uullko Rawdon, there was serious objectlou to his ro-enllstmcnt. Even Snaillo dare not "tako him on" again. It was not until inld-Mny that the bodies of tho missing were feund save that of Cary. Cary, who, having been given up for lost, turned up most un expectedly tho very day thnt Fltzroy, applicant for rc-enllstment, was sum marily turned down. But Cnry came not of his own volition. Ho marched with u flip of tho guard. Cnry's story was simple enough. Rawdon and Lowndes had hardly got away on tho train when Sergeant Stowell and his narty came searching. flty llld. lie Kfvrjnv' Notice Is hereby given that the un dersigned will apply to the city coun-, ell of tho city of Medford, Oregon, at j the next regular meeting thereof, to bo held on October 18, 1910, for a 11 censo to sell splrltous, vinous and malt liquors for a period of six months at his place or business, at No. 22 Front street, North, In said city. 181 JOHN HARRINGTON.
