CHAPTER XII.—Continued.
Along the road toward the ranch
buildings plodded two dusty pedes-
trians. one u blond youth bundled
thickly in sweaters, the other a fat
man who rolled heavily, and paused
now and then to mop his purple face.
Both were dripping as if from an im
mersion, while the air about the latter
vibrated with heat waves. They both
stumbled as they walked, and it wqj}
only bv the strongest effort of will
that they propelled themselves. As
they neared the corner of the big. low-
lying ranch-house, already reflecting
the hot glare of the morning sun, a
man's clear tenor voice came to them.
"The volley was fired at sunrise
Just at the break of day"—
"Did you get that?" one of the two
exclaimed hoarsely. "They're practic-
ing a death-inarch, and It's ours."
And as the echoes lingered.
His soul had passed away."
That's you, Wally!" wheezed the
trainer.
r"
"Into the arms of his Maker,
There to learn his fate"—
"Here, what are you singing about?"
angrily protested Speed, as he round-
ed into view.
"Oh, it's Mr. Speed!"
"Good-morning!" chorused Helen
and the chaperon.
"Welcome to our city!" Fresno
greeted.
GlaBB tottered to the steps. "Them
songs," he puffed, "is bad for a man
when he's trainin'; they get him all
worked up."
"We had no <dea you would ba back
so soon," apologized Helen.
"Soon!" Speed measured the dis-
tance to a wicker chair, gave it up,
and aanit beside his trainer. "We left
yesterday! We've run miles and tnlleB
and miles!"
'>ou can't be in very good shape,"
volunteered the singer.
"Oh, Is that so?" Glass retorted. "I
fay he's great. He got my goat—and
I'm some runner."
"And I'd be obliged to you if you'd
cut out those deeply appealing songs."
Speed glowered at his rival.
It was Helen who hastened to
smooth things.
"It's all my fault. I asked Mr. Fres-
no to sing something new."
"Bah! That was written by Wil-
liam Cromwell."
"No more of them battle-hymns,"
Glass ordered. "They don't do Mr
Speed no good "
"All 1 want Is a drink," panted that
youthful athlete, and Helen rose quick-
ly, saying that sho would bring Ice-
water.
"But the trainer barked sharply:
"Ntx! I've told you that twenty
times, Wally. It 'II put hob-nails In
your liver." He rose with difficulty,
swaying upon his feet, and where he
had sat was a large, Irregular shaped,
sweat-dampened area. "Come on!
Don't get chilled."
"I'd give twenty dollars for a good
chill!" exclaimed the overheated col-
lege man longingly.
"I would like to gee you a moment.
Mr. Speed." Roberta rose from the
hammock.
"Oh, and I've forgotten my—" Helen
checked her words with a startled
glance toward the kitchen. "It will
be burned to a crisp." She hastened
down the porch, and Fresno followed,
while Speed looked after them.
"He must bo an awful nuisance to
a nice girl. Think of a fat. sandy-
haired husband in a five-room flat
with pink wall paper and a colored
Janitor. Run along. Mtildoon," to
^'Have you heard from Culver?"
"Didn't you know about it?" Speed
swallowed.
Roberta shook her dark head
"He's In—he's detained at Omaha
for ten days. I fixed It."
The overwrought widow dropped
back into the hammock, crying weak-
"Oh, you dear, good boy!"
, "Ye . I'm nil of that. I—I suppose
1 d be missed if—anything happened
to me!"
How ever did you manage it?"
"Never mind the detaih). It took
some ingenuity."
Mrs. Keap wrung her hands. "I
was so terribly frightened! You see.
Jack will, be back to-morrow, and I
—was afraid—"
There was a call from Glass from
the training-quarters.
^ "How can I ever do enough for you?
You have averted a tragedy!"
"Don't let Helen know, that's all. If
she thought I'd been the head yeller
' I won't breathe a word, and I
hope you win the race for her sake."
Mrs. Keap pressed the hand of her
deliverer, who trudged his lonely way
toward the gymnasium, where Glass
was saying:
" 'The volley was fired at sunrise.'
That means Saturday, Ho."
I-arry, you're the best crape-hanger
of your weight in the world."
Larry bent a look of open disgust
upon his employer.
And you're a good runner, you are,"
Raid he. "Why, I beat you this morn-
ing."
The younger man glanced up hope-
fully. "Couldn't you beat this cook?"
"You're the only man in this world
I can outrun.
It seemed that a battle must be In
progress behind the screen, for, mln
gled with the gasping screams of tht
athlete and the hoarse commands ol
the trainer, came sounds of physical
contact. The barrel rocked upon It*
scaffold, the curtains swayed and
flapped violently.
"Stand still!"
"It's—it's as c-c-cold as Ice!"
"Nix! You're overheated, that's all."
'Ow-w-w! Ooo-h-h! I'm dying!"
"It'll do you good."
"He's certainly trainin* him some,
said Stover.
"Larry, I've got a crump!"
"It did harden him,'" acknowledged
Willie.
What's wrong with you, anyhow?'
demanded Glass.
"It's not me, it's the w-w-water!"
Evidently Speed made a frantio
lunge here and escaped, for the flow
of water ceased.
"It froze d-d during the night. Oh-h!
I'm cold!"
Cold, eh? Get onto that rubbing-
board; I'll warm you."
An instant later the cowmen heard
the sounds of a violent slappiug min-
gled with groans.
"Go easy, 1 say! I'll he black and
blue all—look out!—not so much In
one spot! Ow!"
"Turn over!"
"He's spankln' him," said Stover ad-
miringly.
Again the spatting arose, this time
like the sound of a musketry fusilade,
during which Uerkeley Fresno entered
by the other door.
"Don't be so brutal," wailed the
patient to his masseur.
"I'm pretty near through. There!
Now +et up and dress," ordered the
trainer, who pushing his way out

"Shut up!"
As Glass consented to do this, the
speaker mused, bitterly, "'Early to
bed and early to rise." 1 wish I had
the night-watchman who wrote those
words."
"Didn't you never see the sun rise
before?"
"Certainly not. I don't stay up that
late."
"Well, ain't It beautiful!" The stout
man turned admiring eyes to the east-
waid, and his husky voice softened.
"All them colors and tints and shades
and stuff! And New York on the other
end!"
"I m too tired to see beauty in any-
thing."
As if mindful of a neglected duty,
Olass turned upon him. "What are
you watting for? Get those dog-beds
off your hack." He seized the Black
of a sweater and gave it a jerk.
"Don't be so rough; I'll come. You
might care to remember you're work-
ing for me."

of the onlookers.
"How Is he?" demanded Stover.
"He—he's trained to the minute. I'm
doln' my share, gents."
"Sounds that way," acknowledged
Stover's companion. "Say, does It look
like we'd win?"
"Well, he just breezed a mile in
forty, with his mouth open."
'A mile?" Fresno queried.
"A mile?" FreBiio queried.
"Yes, a regular mile—seven thou-
sand five hundred and thirty feet."
"Is "forty' good?" queried Willie.
"Good? Why, Salvator never worked
no faster. Here he is now—look for
yourselves."
Speed appeared, partly clad, and
glowing with a rich Balmon pink.
"Good morning," said Fresno po-
litely. "I came In to see how you
liked the cold water."
"So that was one of your California
jokes, eh? Well, I'll—"

"My Very Dear Mother: You must
have been much surprised latterly to
have had so little news of me. Now
that the storm Is over I can tell you
that I spent five days within thirty
meters of Mm. les Boches, and that
this proximity prevented my sending
you any news. Here is what hap
pened: On the 16th we found our-
selves In the trenches of the third
line, 800 meters from the Boches.
The major assembled the company

up a little slope, indicated a wooded
ridge about 400 meters away, and said
to me:
" 'The battalion Is ordered to take
that ridge; Hfce Third and Fourth com

tomorrow afternoon.'
Chilled and Heart Troubled.
"At that moment I had a chill and
all day my heart was troubled,
prayed as I had never prayed before in
my life, and in the evening my cour-
age had come back. I slept all night.
The next morning we were to be in the
trench ready to move at half-past
eleven. We ate rapidly, and at five
minutes before eleven I started to as-
semble my company.

were about to start who4i directly over

Two thtusa-jd bombs were thrown

an infernal din. Uprooted saplings
were carried a hundred meters away
and thick black smoke covered every-
thing.
"Our machine guns began to take
part. Suddenly the voice of Lleuten

pany, forward!'
"Without a moment's pause I sprang
out of the trench, shouting:

meters ahead of them. Suddenly I saw
mound It was the Boche trench,
and at the same moment a bullet
whistled by my ear. I leaped forward.
I found a Boche, his gun still smoking
in his hand, with the Red Cross bras-
sard on his arm. He dropped on his
knees, crying:
" 'Pardon, kamerad.'
"Showing his brassard, he says:
" 'Sanitat. Sanitat' (hospital corps)
"I went on with my men. We passed
over the ridge and we stopped at two
hundred meters from the crest, as I
had been ordered to do. The Boches
were bolting on every side. Our artil-
lery fire had so demoralized them that
they had abandoned everything. Wo

up quantities of material, guns, ma-
chine guns, tools. Hero and there

Dig Themselves Into Trench.
"But it was no time to Jest. I get
my men together and tell them:
Go to work and build a trench
there.'
I was astonished to find myself so
calm. In front of us 50 chasseurs
guarded the construction of our trench.
Up to that moment I had had one man
killed and 20 wounded. Suddenly,
right In front of us a violent fusillade
began. Bullets whistled on all sides
and I saw the man ahead of me re-
turn, calling:
" 'Lieutenant, they are coming.'
"It was the counter-attack. We
Jumped into the trench scarcely yet
outlined, and 1 commanded the men
fire. Two hundred meters in front
of me 1 saw the Boches coming In
masses, shouting. 1 even heard the
cry: 'Vorwarts, vorwarts!' All my
men began to fire. The fusillade re-
sounded. The Boches, throwing them-
selves on the ground, returned our
fire. Thousands of bullets whistled by
our ears, but I paid no attention. Sud-
denly the Boches arose and continued
to advance. We continued to tire.
The Boches, in panic, ran away at full
speed, leaving behind them quantities
of the dead and wounded.
"My men continued to work at the
trench. 1 had them place In front of
the trench a barricade of barbed wire
taken from tho Boches, and we passed
the first night there. Note that I had
with mo only a sergeant. I did not
feel very big. The major had sent me
a note in which he warmly congratu-
lated me and expressly forbade me to
give up the position. I think that all
my life I shall remember tlmt night.
The Boches were constantly firing on
us, while digging their own trench 60
meters from us. My men were on
edge and I had a hard time to keep
them from firing. In the night the
Boches came again, but again were
quickly repulsed. What a night!
Frightfully damp, a flurry of snow and
terrible cold, and overhead the sounds
of the whistling bullets mingled with
the strokes of the spades and picks of
the Boches. The whole thing was Im-
pressive.
Fusillade With the Daylight.
"Daylight came, and with It a fright-
ful fusillade from the Boches. One
of my men was killed, another wound-
ed. I had in all ten killed and Bome
thirty wounded. We kept on working
at our trench and connected It with
the trench of the neighboring com-
pany. During the morning someone
came through a connecting trench and
told me the major wished to speak to
me. 1 arrived at his headquarters. He
shook my hand, saying:
" 'My boy. I am going to see what
I can do for you. But I promise you.
anyhow, to have you mentioned In the
orders for the day, which will give you
a right to the Croix de Guerre. All
the officers of the battalion admired
the way that you conducted yourself
during the attack, and 1 am happy to
congratulate you.'
