Tho litrht of tho old oomranndcr'o
military homo was his daughter Alice
his only child who enroo ns a ray of
sunshlno Into Ids life but a week be-
foro tho death of his beloved wife. At
tho tlmo our story opens AUco wns a
lovely sunny-faced little fairy of
eighteen full of life nnd splvit as
beautiful In her blondo loveliness aa
tho Illy bursting from lta bud. She
wan devotedly attached to her stern
old father who In her society laid
aeldo his air of military dignity nnd al-
lowed tho reflection of his really kind
heart to play in gonial smiles over his
soldierly face. He Idolized tho lovely
girl tho labt priceless gift from his dy-
ing wife ud to contribute to her hap-
piness and enjoyment seemed to be tho
ono loading aim of his life. Tho best
Instructors whloh money could secure
had boon brought from tho far-away

her cdtvoatlon in all necessary branches
was complete and she possessed a fine

treated all alike and camo to be looked
upon as a treasure which all might ad-
mlro but none need ever hopo to pov
sess a devoted child whose father so
filled every nook of her pure henrt thut
there was no room there for another.
One lovely morning In tho month of
September 1800 while returning from
a gallop down the vnlley of the Rio
Grande Miss Sanford rodo up a gulch
onto tho mcta about a mile bolow tho
fort. As sho came out upon tho higher
ground sho observed a young soldier
sitting upon a rock near the troll busily
engaged In sketching. Sho was her-
self a clover artist and passionately
fond of drawing from nnturc and her
Interest In tho soldier was at once
aroused. Ilo had not noticed her np-
pronch so deeply Interested was ho In
his work nnd she reined in her pony a.
few ynrdn distant from where he sat to
study him. Thero wns a pleased ex-
pression on her face when sho noted
thnt ho wns a hnndsomo young man
with n frank honest face neat and
tidy in dress and wearing an air of In-
tellectual refinement which seemed
sodly out of place In ono whoso lot wa3
cast among tho rough soldiers of the
ranks.lt must bo remombcrcd that I
write of the days Just following tho
close of our great civil war when the
ranks of tho regular army on tho
frontier were mailc up of rough Illiter-
ate men largely fished from tho slums
of tho eastern cities ninny of them
having fled to tho west nnd buried
themselves in the army under assumed
names to escape the consequences of
crime. Allocs Sanford hnd never dreamed
tho bnrraelcfl of tho private soldiers
sheltered a man of artistic tastes and
the spcctaclo presented of a soldier
wielding the pencil of the nrtlst wns
to Ijcr a revelation.
The Foldler becoming nwaro of her
presence glanced up from his work
nnd noting that It wns tho daughter
of the commanding officer who hnd ap-
proached him quickly arose to his feet
removed his cap and silently waited
for her to nddrcS3 him should sho de-
sire to do so.
"I am sorry I disturbed youM sho
said. "Will you permit mo to look at
the sketch you arc mnklng?"
"It is as yet far from complete" lie
quietly responded "and I fenr you mny
not bo able to form an Intelligent Idea
of what Its appearance will bo when
tho details arc filled in. I began it but
an hour ago."
lie handed her tho picture and sho
sat for some moments clo&ely studying
it occasionally casting her eyes nVn-oss
the Intervening desert to tho Frn Crls-
tobel rnnffc
"You havo chosen a beautiful study"
sho finally said "hi my cyos tho Frn
Crlstobel Is tho most attractive of all
tho rangc3 which surround us."
"I experience great pleasure In
sketching It" he replied. "This will
bo my third sketch of tho range and I
seem to never tiro of tracing Its bold
outlines and copying Its rugged details
of rock and pino."
Returning Uio plcturo with a
simple "thank you" sho rode home-
ward. Sho allowed her pony to walk
slowly along the trail nnd did not oven
chide him for stopping occasionally to
snatch a mouthful of grass ns ho loitered
along bo busy were her thoughts with
tho humblo private soldier whom she
had just left. She had seen in tho yet
crudo sketch tho work of n master
hand and sho wondered why It was
that one so gifted should Iks wearing
the uniform and performing tho duties
of a soldier. Ills manner woo thnt of
tho polished gentleman his speech re-
fined nnd pleasing and his general de-
meanor was widely different from that
of any of tho other soldiers with whom
she liad been brought in contact. Wliat
could a man of hb attainments bo do-
ing In tho ranks of the anny? The
question Unshed through her brain but
no reply followed In lta wako. A frown
swept over her face but aa quickly
vanished nt a rebuking thought.
"O no not crime" sho mused.
"Thoso clear eyes of hb mirrored a
clear soul. He must not bo classed
with those who lurk In tho shadow of
enlistment to escape tho searching
eye of justice. There Is a romance
strewn along hb trail of life. There

gent and refined?"
Thus cho inuscd until she reached
her home. Throwing tho rein to tho
orderly In wnltlng sho softly ontcred
her father's sitting-room and avoj:o
him from tho half sleep Into which lie
had fallen In his easy chair by a feath-
ery kiss on Uio cheflk.

"0 no papa none of those. I could

"A Mexican freak eh? And what

"JfO nor wnj It a Mexican. You arc d

came upon him while he wns sketching

asked it I might look at his sketch I

agine my surprlfo when I observed
that ho was an nrtlst of no ordinary

romantic llttlo brain to picture him a

waiting and I am as hungry as a troop-
er nftcr a hard day's scout. Attention

Gayly trilling' the air of "The Girl I

military step to the dining-room tho
old colonel mnrchrhg nftcr her with
tho precision of other days.

dbposlUon flashed softly from her
laughing blue eyes and the lingering
echoes of her low sweet voice re-
sounded In his cars In pleasing melody
long after she hnd gone.
Thero was a marked stir In tbo eo-
clal circles of the garrison when an
ofilcbl communication from the wnr
department to the commanding officer
advised him thnt Mr. Alfred Talbott
Vandcver a recent grodnn to from West
Point had been commissioned a second
lieutenant ond assigned to R troop.

under orders to report to Col. Sanfcrd
for duty.
At a border military post Uio officers
and their families livo In a lltUo world
of thclr-own. The social circle nt ono
of theso remote garrisons may best bo
described 03 a military family tho
members of which arc drawn Into
closo relationship by Isolation from tho
great busy world to tho eastward.
Within the limits of this circle tho
strongest tics of friendship arc formed
and tho frequent social parties which
servo as oases to break tho monotony
In the desert of gnrrlson life seem moro
as family gathering.-; than fashionable
affairs. A brotherly end sisterly feel-
ing exists nmonf Uio officers nnd ladles
whoso lot Is cast eo far away from Uio
borders of civilization nnd when by
thnt Immovable decree a mllltory
order nn officer b transferred to a dis-
tant post the departure of himself and
family If ho bo mnrried creates a
break in Uio family circle which Is ns
sincerely mourned ns would bo the de-
parture for a far distant point of a
member of a homo circle In private llfo.
Tho remaining members of a military
family suffer a senso of bereavement
which can scarcely be conceived by
those not familiar with garrison life
nnd the departure of a member b as
sincerely tnoumod as If bound to thoso
to whom ho bids nn Indefinite farewell
by tics of blood.
A prospective addition to Uio milita-
ry family b always a matter of much
comment When Uio accession Is to
bo that of an officer of more or less
ecrvico in the field hb coming b
looked forward to with grcot pleasure
for in almost If not quite every In-
stance ho will bo known to somo of

rated by the official order' and cent

of tho sorvice at widely separated
points. When It b announced at a
