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.

C.nsi Easily lie Mntie Fnscinhting and
v Luxuriant,
On April 2, 1910, Mrs. R. M. Wor
den, 5 St. James nve., Holyoko, Mass.,
wrete: "Parlslia Sago Is tho best hnlr
dressing I over used. It gave my
hair life end a gloss which no other
dressiug over did, besides stopping It
from falling out. It Is tho only dress
ing for up-to-date womon."
Parisian Sago Is guaranteed by
Cha. Strang to euro dandruff, stop
falling hair and Itching scalp In two
weeks, or money br.ck. It makes hair
grow lustrous and luxuriant. It is a
delightfully refreshing hnlr dressing,
not sticky or greasy, And wlli Imme
diately banish all odors. Largo bot
tle 50 cents at druggists everywhere,
and at Chas. Strang's. Tho girl with
tho luhurn l-alr Is on every pack
age. " '
"That
iioso?"
""'i'tS, sir. llsLe made mo at home

"Shnred the best he had with you
home, food, drink, even clothes and
money I'm told."

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
