I) , .. mm "Eg BTIIL BKEiTHES." written bit letter after tbat memora ble night of the fight with Malouey In camp. Hhe speedily wrote Paddy the fol lowing epiwtle: "My dear old Irish Paddy, my Irish Pad dy O. That Mr. Mike Maloney wants to marry me, and to Leave the finht and warring people or you'll be to blame, for love has fairly drove me silly, hoping you're the same." e e e "Tlppernry guard, once Hgain yon are to fnce the demons of destruction Inder (he nm-t dMiigerous conditions." Colonel Downs It wan who spoke. It was In the black new of midnight on tbe Ixittletleld of the AlHue. Around bim clustered sturdy survivors of tbe attack on the Bridge of .npnleon 111. A hoarse, hearty chorus of "Aye. ayer with cries r fiire. were wit you!" was the response. A nlubt at tack on a Uei'umn i.nti'osl hidden la i stretch of wihhIm hud ticeu decided on. Creeping, crawling, sliding on their OouiRcbs, the regiment stenllhily mov ed Into the danger roue. Oeruntu sen tries were cut down by silent bltidea. The Uernnins, unsuspecting any dan ger, were sentid around a Bre drink ing coffee, ruling bread and telling torlea of the war. Suddenly a crush of rifle shota waa beard. Four or live members or tbe outpost fell deiu! or dying. Tbeir comrades selied guns, and a san guinary conflict ensued. At last tbe survivors of the German troop, out numbered, were dispersed In confusion. At roll call by the tlrst sergeiiuU ot the different companies of tbe Tipper ary guards the name of Patrick ttoo ney, Compauy U. received uo answer. Patrick Itoouey was oltlolally listed and published as "missing." Daya later, when Molly received tne new, she became prostrated. Her grief waa inconsolable. Michael sought to comfort her. He waa now entirely well and ready to return to war. "Don't think I want to take advantage of a soldier who may still be alive,'' he aald at parting. "I'll make no more kv to you uiitll I find out whether Paddy is alive or dead, I'll take my cbuncea agninst him If be ia alive." Scouting duty fell to the lot of Michael on his return to active service. Kleeing from a party ot Uerniau troop er near teruutt wuo uuu rnugui glimpse of hlui, Michael Bought shel ter in what appeared to be a deserted farm building. In the aeuil darkuesa ha saw two figure. He raised bia ri fle. They raised their wen pons. "Who are yeJ" asked Michael tensely. "Ue'a an Irishman sure by his voice," Michael heard one say to the other. "That's good enough fer us." Reassured. Michael lowered his rille and stepped warily forward. Could It be possible? ies. surely enough before him were Paddy Koouey and George Murray of the Tlpperary guards! The two rivals for the hand of Molly Molloy gned st each other In amine-ment. I beitnl you were killed." said Pat rick. "I thought you were ded." answer ed Michael. "I had a narrow escape. responded Patrick. 'Kleorse Murray and meself have been hiding hereabouts for weeks. The Dutchmen have been so thk-k around ua that we couldn't get back to our lluea. Tea. and they're after me now. They saw me come this way," said Michael, "amr'-xoddenly he paused acd peered through a wiudow "and here they ciime no" he Mclaimed excitedly. The other two men followed the di rection of Michael's gate. Sure enough. ward the h ilina pl.-i--. Maloney "s brain wai Working quick Iv. He waa stniKgliug with his Inner self. rtnallv be spoke in solemn tones: "Paddy Rooney. you and I wu old time school friends. You won the heart of of Molly-Molloy -the girl I love too." Tbe soldier's voice broke. "But she - loves you-a ud - I'm- going - to save you." He paiid. then went on 'The (Jernians only saw one man come this way. If they shoot one limn thev'll pass on. The other two will be safe." "What do yon meanT gned Pat rick. "1 mean this, me bhoy: I'm going to go outside, if the ;eruiniis get me. why, they get me. that's all. And Mol l.v Molloy will uot lose her Paddy. I m doing this for .Molly." "No. no!" cried Patrick, springing to ward him. Hut tbe move was too late. Michael swung tbe door open and sped along the roadway, which wound along the foot of tbe hill. llooney and Murray looked anxious ly through the window. They heard volley of rifle shots, and they saw .Michael Maloney. private of the front rank of tbe Tlpperary guards, fall headlong Into a dltoli. Tbe scouting troopers, sera mhlcd down to the road way and turned the body over on Its hack to make certain that the man was dead. One of them raised his rifle and with a violent thrust drove his glitter ing sword bayonet through the throat of their victim. "Wlr wollcn en sicher mnchen!" (we will make surei he grunted. Soon the troopers disappeared in the distance. Patrick turned to Murray, tear Mtreaming down Ills cboeks. 'I've neerd." hesnid chokingly, "that blessed is he who gives bis life for a friend!" AFTERWORD. Yes, it is a long, long way to Tip perary, but Paddy Kootey expect to make tbe trip as soon as the war is over. Paddy aiid Murray inude their way to their lines the day after Michael Maloney 's untimely end. Their story of the Tlpperary lad'a heroic sacrifice wag received with many expressions of regret and admiration from his former companions in arms. In a long letter to Molly the sad story wag told by Paddy, and over in the little cottage by the emerald green hunks of the river Suir n lieiitiiiful young girl witb sparkling black eyes and wavln; black hair is watching and waiting for her soldier hero Pad dy. And lie it known to theeiitiriworld the Tlpperary hid Is no longer plain Paddy Koouey. He Is now r'irst Lien- tenant Patrick Rooney of Company O, Tlpperary guards. If you please. That title waa the reward given bim for his gallant work in the capture ot tbe Bridge of Napoleon 111.
