That night there Mas rrjolctnfrat the
nrw stockade. For over n week not a
courier had managed to slip through
In cither direction. Alnnned for the
safety of the little garrison the rom-
itinndins; officer of the pout away up at
the gorge of the Big Horn river hnd
ent two troops of cavalry to scout the
slopes of the mountains nml look Into
the atatc of affairs at Warrior On p.
They found countless fresh pony
-tracks all along' the foothills rust of.
tlie (Jrcnsy dross nnI In the valleys of
the many forks of the Deje Agle the
Orovr name for Tongue river but not
4in Indian did they see. They raurchrd
In among the welcoming officers and
men at the bustling post to find them
selves hailed as heroes. "We've been
cut oft from the world for at least ten
days" said the commandant. "Our
-couriers have been killed captured or
driven back. Even our halMircrd
scouts refuse to make further trial.
They say lied Cloud's people cover the
land in every direction. Our wood-
choppers only work under heavy guard.
The contractors freighters and. work
men threaten to strike unless they get
their money. The sutler refuses them
further credit. The quartermaster has
paid out every cent nnd says his requi-
sition for $10000 wiiKorrteied filled and
the money ought to lime been here a
-week ago. All will have to stop If the
money doesn't come. We're safe
enough. The Sioux don't dnrc come
At (thin range of our breechloaders.
Hut c can't finish the barracks In time
for winter at this rate."
A stout-hearted soldier was the com-
manding officer at WurJor flap lie
had with hint; now four strong com-
panies of infantry nnd u troop of horse.
He had he said but one anxiety so far
as holding the fort was concerned
some few of the officers and quite a
number of the soldiers as has been
told were bnrdened with their wives
and children. If these could only be
motcd under strong guard to Krayne
on the Platte he could snap his tlngcts
In the face of lted Cloud and his whole
gang until they too got breech-lond-er.
"It's only a question of time!"
ald he. "Sooner or Inter the Interior
department villi be fool enough to nrm
the redskins all over the laud with
magazine rifles and then there will be
lively work for the war office. Any
day" said he further "vc may ex
pect the coming of a whole regiment
from the Platte posts nnd then Mr. I.n
will have to light nut. Meantime If we
hadn't this trouble nbnut the workmen
and could get rid ot the women and
children we'd he alt right."
So back to the ltlg Horn rode the
squadron to report all safe at Warrior
flap barring the blockade nnd nlmost
on the same date out there started
ft'om Laramie on the long march up
the Platte and oter across the sage-
covered deserts a strong force of foot
and dragoons; and dp from tli" Sweet-
water far to the southwest came this
venturesome little party of ten
bringing the much-demanded money
nnd all the while with his far-riding
far-seeing scouts In every direction
Machpealota perched In the moun-
tains back .of the building post warily
watched the dispositions and dctly
work and laid his plnns accordingly.
Not a warrior was permitted to show
himself near the stockade but In a
sleepless cordon the miles out they
surrounded the (lap. Not a messenger
had managed to elude their vigilance
by day not one had succeeded In slip-
ping into the little camp by night.
Yet with every succeeding morn the
choppers and fatigue parties pushed
farther out from the stockade In grow-
ing sense of security and the Indians
let them come.
Full a week before the Laramie col-
umn could possibly reach the moun-
vi)bit however lted Cloud was warned
of their coming their numbers and
composition so many horse soldiers
so many "heap walks." Unmolested
the squadron from Fort C. F. Smith
the Big Horn Itlter post was permit
ted to retrace its steps. In fancied
safety born of confidence In that won-
derful new breechloader the little
command at the Gap was lulled to In-
difference to their surroundings. Then
ending large numbers ot his young
men to round up buffalo toward the
Platte but keeping still his stern and
vengeful eye upon the prey almost at
his feet the red chief made his final
and fatal plans.
There came a cloudless morning
when the cavalry troop escorted a
young officer tip the rocky heights to
the west finding everywhere Indica-
tions of recent Indlnn occupancy but
not a redskin barred their way. With-
out opposition of any kind without so
much as n glimpse ot the foe were they
permitted to climb to Signal Itock and
from that point) with powerful glasses
tho officers swept the glorious range of
foothills the deep valley of the Tongue
the banks of the Plney nnd the Crazy
Woman the far-spreading upland
prairie rolling away like some hear-
ing oceaa suddenly turned to earth
cast and southeast to the dim horizon
and there they saw or thought tbey
saw full explanation ot their recent
freedom from alarm ot any kind.
There to the south full thirty miles
away the land was overlaid by a dull
heavy dun-colored cloud and trav-
ersed by black streoks or blotches that
were recognized at onee as running
buffalo lied Cloud and his braves
then were drawn away In search of
other game and light ot heart and
foot the troopers trotted back to the
waiting stockade to meet there lalo
that evening as the weird tuttao of the
drums and fifes was echoing back from
the rocky heights the first messenger
through in nearly fifteen days a halt-
breed Sioux from a distant post along
. the Platte bearing a written message
' fromtbecommandlug officer at Frayne
which the veteran commandant read
.with infinite comfort
' "Seven companies ot infantry and
three more troops ot cavalry ore on
due way and should reach you by Sat-
urday week. The genual thor
oughly alive to the situation and we
too are hoping for orders to mote out
and help you give that infernal old
scoundrel the thrashing he deserves.
All has been quiet hereabouts since
that one party made Its dash on jlal
Folsom's ranch. Of coursa you know
the story of Mrctlc and of cotirso lied
Cloud mtiHt have known that Burning
Star was head devil In that enterprise
though Chaskn was the victim. I
take much comfort In the fact that It
was I who sent young Dean nnd his
troop round by way of the I.arainle.
Folsom and his people would have
been murdered to a mun If I hadn't
and yet I hear that absurd old ass at
I'mory put Dean In arrest for not
coming directly home. Pecksniff
should hate been retired ten years
ago for Imbecility.
"We had n tremendous storm In
the mountains to the south two days
ngo nnd n courier has just galloped
out from I'mory inquiring for news
ot Dcnn. It seems he was sent with a
bg sum of currency for your quarter-
master nnd ordered to slip through
by way of Sweetwater ns lted Cloud
was known to bo covering thu direct
road. Somehow It leaked out before
he started and a gang of desperadoes
gathered to jump him at Cnuyiiu
Springs. Thu storm jumped them for
tuo of their dead and n dorcn horses
were rolled out on the fiats. Dean
iiniKt hate got through all right for
Hat saw their trail fifteen miles above
us. Of course he'll hnvc to make
night marches; but unless lted Cloud
gets wind of his coming and corrals
him he should reach you almost as
soon as this. Michel the benrer has
your dispatches and orders ltetalned
copies nre here. Good luck old man
and n-iiy we meet within the fort-
night nr.d wind up lted Cloud once nml
for all time."
This wns nil but more than enough
Hiding night nnd day in wide detour
Michel had made his way to the late-
ly beleaguered spot and what he
brought wns joyous news. Indeed.
Within the coming week the post
would have no more to feur. Within a
day or two the contractors then
would hate their money and that
would tap the sutler's stores and Joy
would reign supreme. Kntlotisly tho
soldiers eyed the artlsnns. Not for
weeks could their paymaster be looked
for while tlie. funds for the civilians
might rcneh them on thb mnirow
provided lied Cloud did not interfere.
He couldn't nnd wouldn't said the
commando- because he and his braves
were all off to the southeast hunting
buffalo. He could and might said
Mlchc that night at ten o'clock aft-
er taps had cent the garrison to bed
for by the time he left Frayne theic
were other riders up from (late City
nnd nil the garrison had learned that
Lieut. Dean wns taking something like
fifty thousand dollar In greenbacks
up to the (lop. with only ten men to
guard It and MnJ. Ilurlelgh wits wild
with atiNlcty lest ho shouldn't get
through and had been nearly rnuy

cape at Canyon Springs. The officer
Tht outer onei supported their comrade Is tho

of the day who heard this story told
It with the teller to the post com-
ummlci'. and thai tetcrnn sat up
late nnd crnss-quehtliiucd long Mi-
chel's Kngllsli might be broken but
not nis statement. The last a ill mi I
at Frajne before he left wns one of
MuJ. Burleigh's own men from (late
City. lio said the general mid his
Btaff were expected at Emory t lu-
next day Intestlgntlng matteis. for
old Stevens had got stampeded be-
cause his sergeant major was assault-
ed and old Folsom knocked out ntid a
drunken csptuln by the name of New-
hall had been making trouble nnd it
hnd all told on Mnj. Burleigh who had
tnken to his bed with nervous prostra-
tion. So while the garrison went to rest
happy the. commanding officer waked
long and finally slept soundly and
might have slept late but that Just al
dawn full half an hour before the time
for rccllle there come a sharp knock-
ing at the door or his log hut anil the
Imperative voice of the officer of the
day;
"Colonel colonel I soy! There's
sharp firing out here in the hills to
the south!"
The penks to the west were Just ting-
ing with purple and red relleeteilfiom
tho eastward sky and n faint light was
beginning to steal down Into the deep
valley In which the cantonment lay
sleeping when the tctcran commander
came hurrtlng out half dressed nnd
hied him with his nttcmlont officer to
the southern angle of the stnekude.
There on the norrow ledge or platform
built under the sharp tops of the up-
right logs wero grouped tho silent
grave-faced guard n dozen men Intent-
ly listening. Thither presently came
running others ot tho officers or men
suddenly awakened by sense of some-
thing unusual going on. Far away
among the wooded heights to the
south echoing from the rocky pali-
sades to the west could Le heard) the
pop pop of distant musketry punc-
tuated sometimes with louder bangns
of large caliber rifles closer at hand
Little time wns there in which to
hazard opinion ns to the cause. One or
two men fnlnt-hearted at tho thought
of the peril ot Indian battle and hope-
ful of Influencing tho judgment of their
superiors began the murmur ot "big
hunt" "buffalo drive" etc glancing
furtively at tho colonel the while as
though to observe the effect. But an
Imperative "Silence you Idiots!" from
tho officer of tho day put audden end
to their conjectures. Only a moment
did the commander listen. Then quick
and startling came the order; "Sound
to arms I" and within the minute the
stirring peal of the cavalry trumpet
was auswered by the hoarse thunder
of the snare drum beating the long
rell. Out from their "dog tenia" awt
half-finished log huts came llf be-
wildered men Often ns the alarm !
sounded on the frontier there was a
thrill and ring about It this time that
told of action close at hand. Out from
the 'little huts hurrying Into their
fi'ock Coals and bcltlngon their swords
ns they glared nbout them for the cause
of thb uproar came the officers old
and joting most of them veterans of
many hnrd-fought fields ot the war
days one or two only youngsters
fresh from the Point. At many a door-
way and unglared window appeared
the pallid faces of women nnd children
some ot them weeping In mingled
fright and distress. In front ot the
log guardhouse the sergeant quickly
formed the two reliefs not on post.
On their designated parades the com-
panies rapidly fell In while stern-
tolcetl iioii.comnilsiilonrd officers re-
buked the laggards and nlded them
Into their belts and each first sergeant
took rnptd note of his men. No need
to rait tho roll n skulker would have
been dotcctcdiand kicked Into the ranks
nt the Instant. Over under the rough
board shelter of the quartermaster's
cmplojes the workmen came tumbling
out In shirt sleeves many of them mil-
ulng to the nenrest officer and begging
for a gun and n place In the fight for
now the firing was loud nml lltely.
Down-by the swift flowing stream the
tethered horses of the cavalry plunged
and neighed In excitement and the
mules In the quartermaster's corral set
up their Irrepressible bray. 1'or five
minutes there was clamor but no con-
fusion. Then disciplined silence reigned
again nil but the inuring tollrjlng at
the south. Presently ut rapid tiot the
cnuilry some .10 sttong came clatter-
ing tip the stony trail from the si renin
n nil with carbines ndwinced disap-
peared through the main gateway in
a cloud of dust. Two companies were
lol'l off to mini the loopholes of the
rtnekiidr. Two others under the com-
mand of n senior captain faced by the
right Hank iimli In double-quick time
danced nwny In the wake of the cav-
nlry. Eagerly the watchers climbed
the wooden walls or to the tower of the
hnlf-flnlsheil guardhouse and ns the
red light strengthened In the cast and
the mountain sides became rerulrd
studied with their glasses or with
straining eyes the southward tlsta
thioiigh the hills. They saw the troop
form line to the front at the gallop as
It swept out oer the open ground -(no
jiirils awuy saw ltn flankers scurry
to the nearest shoulder of bluff snw
thelrevclted signals and gesticulations
and prexeutly a sheaf of skirmishers
shot forward from the ndvanclng line
anil hrcusted the low ridge 81)0 ynidet
out from the fort nnd then there came
Hunting back thu soundi of ringing
tumultuous cheer ns the skirmishers
reached the crest and darted headlong
at some unseen object beyond nnd aft-
er them went the reserve cheering ton.
And now the sound of tiring became
finer nml Incessant nnd mehsengers
rami1 galloping buck to the commander
of the steadily nihmieliig Infantry mid
they too were seen to tlnow forwaid
heavy skirmish lines nnd then resume
the march. And then down over the
rldfrc came a little knot of horsemen
made tip of three men riding close to-
gether the outer ones supporting be-
tween them the comrade In the center.
Before thpy were within -J00 yards the
youlig adjutant gazing through his
glasses at the colonel's side exclaimed:
"M'k Dean dead or wounded'!" mid
one of the surgeons rushed forward to
meet the party. "He's weak sir nl-
most gone from loss of blood" ex-
claimed Trooper Conroy himself bleed-
ing from a gash along the cheek. A
faint smile drifted ocr the young fel-
low's pallid face as the adjutant too
galloped up. A feeble hand Indicated
the bulging saddle pocket. A faint
voice faltered: "There's $10000 lu that
packet. We had to fight our way
through" nnd then the brine blue.cyes
closed and strong arms lifted the tri-
moHt lifeless farm from the saddle ui
Marshall swooned away.

was the piling up of gold colnsatid then
knocking them over says Youth's Com-
panion. At times he washed hla handi
in gold eagles and half eagles. At the
end of the long seclusion he returned
to his I'oiintlng-ioomiinil in 12 montlm
confirmed the thoroughness of his re-
covery by making $500000. He died of
yellow feier In Cuba where he had
gone to louk after his sugar planta-
tion. A similar p.mslon far handling gold
coin Is now nml then exhibited by men

gustus S.iln In his "Life and Adven-
tures" tells ot a London Journalist who
(.peculated lu railroad stocks. Ills llrst
venture netted him $5000. Drawing it
in gold he repaired to n hotel emptied
tlie bags of gold lu the bed and went
to sleep literally in the sands of I'nc-

DEATH
begins in the bowels. It's the unclean
puces that breed infectious epidemics
and it's the unclean body unclean in-
sidethat "catches" the disease. A
person whose stomach and bowels
are kept clean and whose liver is live-
ly and blood pure is safe against yel-
low fever or any other of the dread-
ful diseases that desolate our beautiful
land. Some of the cleanest people
outside are filthiest inside and they
are the ones who not only "catch
the infections but endanger the livps
of all their friends and relatives. There's only one certain way of keeping
clean inside so as to prevent disease and that is to take CASCAfIETS.
Perfect disinfectant and bowel strengthened. All diseases are
PREVENTED BY J&
