io^o«o*o«o*oe*oeoeoeo«oeoi A MAN’S A MAN By Arthur Colton Copyright, IMI*, by Arthar Coltou c througn the ora in hies There was the stone wall uot five rods away, all lined along the top with grimy faces. A thousand rilles within as many yards wanting uotblug lieiter tliau to dig a inuml bole lu him. He dropiied his head and closed Ills eyes. His thoughts were so stunned that tin' slowly lessening I'aimmiaile seem ed like a dream, ami lie hardly noticed when It had ceased, ami lie began to hear voices, cries of wouuded men all down the slope ami other men talking up above. There was a clump of trees to the right anil two or three crows In the treetopa cawing familiarly. Au hour or two must have passed, for the sun was down ami the river mist creep ing up the slope, lie lay on Ills back, staring blankly at the pale sky. A group of men came down ami stood on the rocks above. They eqilld prole ably see him. but a man oil Ills hack with his toes up was nothing particular there. They talked with a soft drawl. "Doggouedest clean up I ever saw." " I hey hain't no business to come up heali, yuh know. They come some ins tance now.” “Sliuah! We ain't huntin’ rabbits. What'd yuh suppose?” Then they went on. The mist came up white and cold and covered It ■ 'I over. He could nut see the wall a’ 'onger, though lie could hear the vo . . s. He turned on bls face and crawlei' along below the brambles ami rocks to where the clump of trees stood with i deep hollow below them. They were chestnut trees. Some one was sitting In the hollow witli his back against the roots. During the rush up the slopes and terraces Dinkey Cott fairly enjoyed himself, The sisirtiug blood In him sang In his ears an old song that the leopard knows, it may be. waiting In the mottled shadow, that the rider knows on the race course, the hunter In the snow—the song of a craving that only excitement satisfies. The smoke blew down the hill in liis face. He went down a hollow ami up the other side. Then something hot amt sudden came Into the middle of him, and he rolled back against the roots of a great tree. "Hullv gee! I'm plunked!” lie grum bled disgustedly. For tlie time he felt no pain, but his blood ceased to sing ill bls ears. Every thing seemed to settle down around him—blank and dull and angry. He felt as If either the army of tlie north or tlie army of the south had not treat ed him rightly. If they had given him a minute more, be might have clubbed something worth while. He sat up against a tree, wondered what hie chance was to pull through, thought It poor and thought he would sell it for a drink. The firing dropped off little by little, ami the mist was coming up. Dinkey began to see sights. His face and hands were hot. and things seemed to OMPANY A was cut up at An tietam so that there was not enough of It left for useful purposes, ami Deacon An drew Terrell became a member of a ceitain Company <!. which nleknain cd him "’Is Hulliness.” Company A ciime from Dutchess couniv. There was a little white church lu the vil lage of Brewster and a little white bouse with a meager porcli where that good woman, Mrs. Terrell, hail stood and shed several tears as the deacon Hulked away down the street, looking extraordinary In his regimentals. She dried her eyes, settled down to her aenlng in that quiet south window and hoped he would remember to keep his feet dry and not lose the cough drops. The deacon took the cough drops reg ularly, he kept his gray chin heard trimmed with a pair of domestic »da- aers and drilling never iwisuaded hitn to move his large frame with other than the same self conscious restraint. His sallow face had the same set lines. Bui no doorkeeper in tlie house of God the deacon's service In the meet ing house at Brewster—who should come perforce to dwell in the tents of wickedness would pretend to like It. Besides.

Imp faced, hardened little Bowery sprout put his left fist In the deacon's eye the first day of their ac quaintance amt swore for several min utes in tlie pleasantest manner poasi- ble. And the deacon cuffed him because lie bad been a schoolmaster In liis day and did not understand Imw lie would be despised for knocking Dinkey down In that amateur fashion, and the lieu tenant gave them both guard duty for fighting in the ranks. The deacon declared “that young man Cott hadn’t no moral Ideas” ami did Ills guard duty In bitterness and strict conscience to the last minute of it. ldnkey put his thumb to his nose ami offered to show the lieutenant how the thing should have been done, ami the big mau laughed, and both forgot about the guard duty.

What happened there was not clear to Company G. There seemed to be a deal of noise and hurrying about, can non smoke In the valley and cannon smoke on the terraces across the val ley.
