J begged to throw tip tho job that Very night, but thpy held ino to lay confruct, and I had to go. Wo tvoro jumped not 10 mill's out of town, uud before any ono could draw a derringer every man of na wus covered. Th:- jndgo might hnvo known they'd shoot lii.u on Bight everainra that fjeascr trom Hermosillo was lynched, liut thoy never harmed the qnartrnnastur. " "Huh I The devil thpy didn't!" laughed the lieutenant. "They took hia watch and hia money and every thing he had on except his nndercloth lng. How long had yon been driving when that happened?" "Just eight months, sir, between Tucson nnd Grant." "And did you never servo with the cavalry before ? Vou rido ns though youhnd." "Most men herealxniti served on one side or other," Buid Gland calmly, as bis horso finished his long pull at tho water. "And your side was" " Confederate," wus the brief reply. "I was bom in Texas. Here comes the troop, sir." "Come on, then. 1 want to ask you about that trail to Crittenden as we ride. We make first for tho Ficacho pass from here. " "Why, that's south of. west, sir," an swered Bland. "1 had thought perhaps the lieutenant would want to go north ward toward the Gila to head off any parties of the Apaches that might be striving to get away eastward with their booty. They must have picked up something over at the Bend. " "They're more likely to go south ward, Bland, for they know where we've been scouting all the week. No, I'll march straight to the signal. There they must know where the Indians have gone." "Aye, aye, sir, but then you can only pursue, and a stern chase is a long one." Drummond turned in his saddle as they rode forth upon the dark f alda and gazed long and fixedly at the trooper by his side. Imperturbably Bland con tinued to look straight ahead. Queer stories had been afloat regarding this new acquisition. He mingled but lit tle with the men. He affected rather the society of the better class of non commissioned officers, an offense not likely to be condoned in a recruit. He was already distinguished for his easy maatwy of every detail f a cavalry man's duty, and for his readiness to go at any or all times on scout, escort or patrol, and the more hazardous or lonely the task the better he seemed to like it. Then he was helpful about the offices in garrison, wrote a neat hand, was of ten pressed into service to aid with the quartermaster or commissary papers, and had been offered permanent daily duty as company clerk, but begged off, saying he loved a horse and cavalry work too well to be immured in an office. He was silence and reticence itself on matters affecting other people, but the soul of frankness apparently where he was personally concerned. Any body was welcome to know his past, he said. He was raised in Texas: had lived for years on the frontier; had been through Arizona with a bull team in the fifties, and had 'listed tinder the banner of the Lone Star when Texas went the way of all the sisterhood of southern (not border) states, and then, being stranded after the war. had ' ' bull whacked" again through New Mexico; had drifted again across the Mimbres and down to the old Spanish-Mexican town of Tucson ; had tried prospecting, mail riding, buckboard driving, gam bling ; had been ono of the sheriff 's posse that cleaned out Sonora Bill's little band of thugs and cutthroats and had expressed eutiro willingness to officiate as that lively outlaw s executioner in caso of his capture. Ho had twice been robbed while driv ing the stage ncros3 tho divide and had been loft for dead in the Maricopa range, an episode which he said was the primal cause of his dissipations later. Finally, after a mnnniary dis charge he had como to tho adjutant at Camp Lowell, presented two or three certificateB of good character and brav ery in the field from officers who boro famous names in the southern army, and tho regimental recruiting officer thought ho could put up with an occa sional drank in alnnn who promised to make as x;ocd a trooper under the stars and stripes as he had mado under tho Btara and bars. And bo he was enlisted, and to the surprise of everybody hadn't taken a drop since. Now this, said the rank and file, was proof positive of something radically wrong, either in his disposition or his record. It was entirely comprehensible and fully in accordance with human nature and the merits of tho case that a man should quit drinking when he quit the army, but that a man with the blot of an occasional spree on his escutcheon should enlist for any other cause than sheer desperation and should then be come a teetotaler was nothing short of prima facie evidence of moral deprav ity.' "There's something behind it all, fel lers," said Corporal Murphy, "and 1 mean to keep an eye on him from this out. If he don't dhrink next payday, look ont for him. He's a professional gambler laying for your hard earned greenbacks." ... And so while the seniors among the sergeants were becoming gradually tho associates, if not the intimates, of this fine looking trooper, the mass of the regiment, or rather the little detach ment thereof stationed at Lowell, looked upon Bland with the eye of suspicion. There was one sergeant who repudiated him entirely, and who openly professed his disbelief In Bland's account of himself, M that Tf as Feeny, 'He CopRiOHr. 1893 SI CMMLC5". K.iUQs may have testimonials rrotn all Texas, " said he hotly, "but I've no use for that sort of credentials. Who can vouch for his goings and comings hereabouts before ho joined nsT I think Murphy's right, and if I was stationed at Lowell and belonged to his troop you bet I'd watch him close." Now, in all the command it would have been a hard matter to find' a sol dier in whose favor appearances were so unanimously allied. Tall, erect, sinewy and active, he rode or walked with an easy grace that nono could fail to mark. His features were line and clear cut; his eyes u dark hazel, with heavy curling lashes and bushy, low arched brows ; his complexion, naturally dark, was bronzed by euu and sand storm to a hue almost Mexican. Ho shaved clean all but the heavy mus tache that drooped over his firm lips, and the sprinkling of gray about tlia brows, temples and mustache waa most becoming to his peculiar style. One prominent mark hud he which the descriptive book of his company referred to simply as "salicr scar on right jaw," but it deserved mention more extended, for tho whitish streak ran like a groove from just below tha ear tip to the angle of the square, reso lute) chin. It looked as though in some desperate fray a mad sweep had been made with vengeful blade straight for the jugular, and, just missing that, had laid open tho jaw for full four inches. "But," said Feeny, "what could he have been doing, and in what position could ho have been, sitting or standing, to get a salier stroke like that? Where was his guard? A bowieknife, now" and there Jhe suggestion ended. But it was the scarred side of Bland's soldierly face that young Lieutenant Drummond was so closely studying as they rode out into tho starlit Arizona night. He, too, had heard the camp chat about this apparently frank, open hearted trooper, and had found himself more than once speculating as to his real past,- not the past of his imagina tion or of his easy offhand description. By this time, in perfect silence save for the occasional clink of canteen, the gurgle of imprisoned water, or, once in a while, tho click of ironshod hoof, the troop was marching in shadowy col umn of twos well out beyond the falda and over the almost dead level of the plain. Far ahead the beacon still blazed brightly and beckoned them on. It was time for precaution. "Sergeant," said Drummond, "send a corporal nnd four men forward. Let them spread out across the front and keep 800 or 400 yards ahead of ns. Better take those with the freshest horses, as I want them to scout thor oughly and to be on the alert for the faintest sound. Any of our men who know this valley well?" "None better than Bland here, sir," was the half hesitant reply. "W-e-1-1, I need Bland just now. Put some of the old bands and older heads on, and don't let anything escaps their notice." "Beg pardon, lieutenant, but what's to be the line of direction ? When we started it was understood that we were to take the shortest cut for Ceralvo's, and now we're heading for the Fi cacho." "No, we make for the pass first; that's the quickest way to reach the signal station, then we learn whero to strike for the Indians. Did you ever hear of their being as far west as the Maricopa range before?" "Never, sir, in tho whole time we've been here, and since the lieutenant joined they've never been heard of crossing the Santa Maria valley." "What on earth could tempt them ont bo far? There's nothing to be gained und every chance of being cut off by troops from Grant and Bowie. even if they do succeed in slipping by us." "That's more than I can toll, sir. The men say the paymaster's coming along this wek; they heard it from the quartermaster's train we passed at the Cienega three days ago." Trooper Bland was riding in silence ou tho left of tho detachment com mander r.s ha had beon directed. The sergeant had como up on tho other flank. "What men heard this?" asked Drummond, quickly. "Why, Patterson told me, sir, and Lucas and Quinn, ar.d I think Eland hero was talking with tho train escort and must have heard it." "Did you, Bland?." risked the lieu tenant, as ha whirled suddenly in his saddle arid faced tho trooper. "Yes, sir," was the prompt reply; "several of tho men spoke of it. It's about tho most welcome piece of news thoy could give to fellows who had four months' pay due. " In the isolation of this mountain scouting business, whon, as often hap pens, ono officer is out alone for weeks with no comrades or associates but hia detachment, it naturally results that a greater freedom of intercourse and speech is developed between the com mander and some, at least, of his party than would ever be the case in years of garrison life; and so it happened that for the moment Drummond forgot the commander in the man. "It is most extraordinary, ' he said, "that just when a paymaster is anxious to keep secret the date and route of his coming the whole thing is heralded ahead. We have no telegraph and yet three days ago we knew that Major Plnmmer was starting on his first trip. Better and Better. "Better than grandeur, better thin gold, - Better than rank a thousand fold, le a healthy body, a mind at esse, And simple pleasure that always pleat. " To get and keep a healthy body, use Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery, a remedy designed to not only cure all diseases of the throat, lungs and: chest, but keep the body In a thoroughly healthy condition. It eradicates all impurities from the blood, and over comes Indigestion and Dyspepsia.

By Jnpitert suppose he was and had but a small escort 1 What else could that signal fire meant Here! grt those men out to the front now at once; we must push ahead for all we're worth." And so at midnight, with steeds panting and jaded, with the pass and the Picacbo only fortr miles ahead, the little detachment was tripping noise lessly through the darkness, and, all alert and eager, DrumnfJ nd was riding midway between his scouts and the rqain body so that no sound close at hand might distract his attention from hails or signals farther out. Suddenly he heard an exclamation ahead, the snort of a frightened horse, then some muffled objurgations, a rider urging a reluctant steed to approach some suspicious ob ject, and, spurring hia own spirited charger forward, Mr. Drummond came presently upon the corporal just dis mounting in the darkness and striving to lead his boon companion, whom he could net drive, np to some dark object lying on the plain. This, too, failed, A low whistle, however, brought one of tho other scouts trotting in to the res cue. "Hold him a minute, Burke," said the corporal, handing up tho reins. "There's something out here this brute shied at and I can't get him near it again." With that he pushed out to ttie front while the others listened ex pectant. A moment later a match was struck, and presently burned brightly in the black and breathless night. Then came the startled cry ; "My God, lieutenant, it's Corporal Donovan and his horse both dead." And even there Mr. Drummond noted that Bland was ' about the first of the column to come hurrying forward to the scene. Ten minutes investigation threw but little light upon tho tragedy. Some stumps of candles were found in the saddlebags and packs, and with these the meu scoured the plain for signs. Spreading well out from the center, they closely examined tho sandy levol. From the north came the trail of two cavalry horses, shod alike, both at the lope, both draggy and weary. From the point where lay Donovan and his, steed there was but one horse track. Whirling sharply around, the rider had sent his mount at a thundering gallop back across the valley; then 100 yards away, in long curve, he had reined him to the southeast The troopers who followed the hoof marks out about an eighth of a mile declared that, nn wounded, both horse and rider were making the best of their way toward Moreno's ranch. Farther search, not 50 yards to the front, revealed the fact that at the edge of a little depression and behind some cactus bushes three human forms had been lying prone, and from this point probably had sped the deadly bullet. "Apaches, by God!" muttered one of the men. "Apaches, your grandmother!" was the sergeant's fierce reply, "Will you never learn sense, Moore? When did Apaches take to wearing store clothes and heeled boots? There's no Apache in this, lieutenant. Look here, sir, and here. Move out farther, Bome of you fellows, and see where they hid their horses. Corporal Donovan was with C troop down the Gila last week, sir. They were to meet and escort the pay master most like. It's my belief he was one of the guard and that the am bulance has been jumped this very night. These are road agents, not Apaches, and God' knows what's hap pened if they've got away with Patsy. Sure he was one of the nerviest men in the whole troop, sir." Drummond listened, every nerve a-tingle, sven while with hurried hands he cut open the shirt at the brawny throat and felt for fluttering heart beat or faintest sign of life. Useless. The shot hole under the left eye told plainly that the leaden missile had torn its way through the brain and that death must have been instan taneous. Tho soldier's arms and ac couterments, the horse's equipments, were gone. The bodies lay unmnti lated. The story was plain. Separated in some way from the detachment, Don ovan and his companion had probably sighted the signal blazing at tho pass and come riding hard to reach the spot, when the unseen foe crouching across A match was xtrvclc and hurried brightly in ihe black and breathless nlijld. their path had suddenly fired the fatal shots. Now, where was tho pip-master? Where tho escort? Where, the men who fed tho signal fire tho fire that long before midnight had died ut terly away? Whither should the weary detachment direct its march? Ceral vo's lay a dozen miles off to tho north west, Moreno's perhaps eight or nine to the southest. Why had the escaped trooper headed his fleeing steed in that direction? Had there been pursuit? Aye, 10 minutes' search over th&still and desolate plain revealed the fact that two horsemen lurking in a sand pit or dry arroyo had pushed forth at top speed and ridden away full tilt across the desert, straight as the crow flies, toward Moreno's well. Even while Drummond, holding brief consul tation with bis sergeant, was deliberat ing whether to turn thither or to push for the signal peak and learn what he could from the little squad of blue jackets there on duty, the matter was decided for him. Sudden and shrill there came the. cry from the outskirts of the now dismounted troop clustered about the body of their comrade. "Another fire, lieutenant I Look I ont here toward the Santa Maria." The sergeant sprang to his feet, shouldering his burly way through the excited throng. One moment more and his voice was heard in louder, fiercer tones;' "No signal this tjme, sir. By God, they've fired Moreno's ranch 1" CHAPTERni. 1 Shortly after sunset on this same hot evening the sergeant in Charge of the little signal party at the Picacho came strolling forth from hia tent puffing at ,J V' ft a Darterscr trner root pipe. - Boatnwara and a few hundred feet below his perch the Yuma road cam twisting through the pass, and then disappeared In tha gathering darkness across the desert plain that stretched between them and the distant Santa Maria. Over to the east the loftiest crags of the Christobal were still faintly tinged by the last touch of departed day. Southward still, beyond the narrow and tortuous pass, the range rose high and precipi tous, covered and fringed with black masses of oedar, stunted pine and juni per. North of west, on the line of the now Invisible road and far ont toward the Gila, a faint light was just twinkling. There lay Ceralvo's, and nowhere else, save where the embers of the cook fire still glowed in s deep crevice among the rocks, was there light of any kind to be seen. A lonely spot was this in which to spend one's days, yet the sol dier in charge seemed in no wise op pressed with sense of isolation.. It was his comrade, sitting moodily on a convenient rock, elbows on knees and chin deep buried in his brown and hairy bands, who seemed brooding over the desolation of his surroundings. Watching him in silence a moment, a quiet smile of amusement on his lips, Sergeant Wing sauntered over and placed a friendly hand on the broad blue shoulder. "Well, Pikey, are yon wishing your self back in 'Frisco?" "I'm wishing myself in Tophet, ser geant; it may be hotter, but it isn't as lonely as this infernal hole." "No, its populous enough probably," was the response; "and," added he, with a whimsical smile, "no doubt you've lots of friends there, Pike. " "Maybe I have, and maybe I haven't. At all events, I've hone here. Why in thunder couldn't you let me look into that business over at Ceralvo's instead of Jackson? He gets everything worth having. I'm shelved for his sake day after day." "Couldn't send yon. Pike, on any such quest as that. Those greasers have sharp eyes, and one look at your face would convince them that we'd lost oar grip or were in for a funeral. Jackson, now, rides in as blithe as a May morning a May morning out of Arizona, I moan. They never get the best of him. The only trouble is he stays too long; he ought to be back here now." ' "Humph! he'll bo apt to come back in a hurry with Pat Donovan and those C troop fellows spending their money like water at Ceralvo's." "Yon still insist they're over there, do yon, Pike? I think they're not. I flagged old Feeny half an hour ago that they hadn't come through here." "Who was that fellow who rode back here with the note?" asked Pike. "I don't know his name. 'Dutchy they call him in C troop. He's on his second enlistment. TO BS CONTntUZD.
