In the manor lsouse of plantation in Kentucky two Confederate generals rr.-t to arrange a plan of campaign against the Federal tnois occupying; a strong position not far to the north. Shortly before the interview was closed one of them took the memoranda that bad been accumulating, threw it iu u stove anil ignited it. Now. I'olly I'ajue. an inmate of the houe. was much interes-ted' in what had transpired between the two gener als. Her father was lighting as a colo nel in the Union army. Her mother and her sister were at house and. being ardent sympatlrizerr with the southern cause, were employed in conveying in formation of Union mow-mems to the Confi-derate authorities. Such was tlie singular division in the I'ayne family on the jjreat question then at issue. Isabel I'ayne, the elder sister, was engaged to Major I'owninir of the Confederate ar my, while Dolly was as good as en gaged to Captain J Vllnwes of tlie Union army, both men being wiili their re spective forces in the neigliliorliood. The generals had no sooner departed than Miss Dolly went into the room they had left and began a still hunt for something of imKjrtance they might have left behind to take to her lover, whom she was to meet that very night. Not a scrap of paper lay on the table, nor could she tind one on the floor. Looking into the stove she found one half burned bit. Withdrawing it, she saw nouiething written on it in pencil: B.'n ilix-iaion to attack before daylight. Turn enemy's left. As soon as attention Is drawn there J.'s brigade leaii on their right; then V.'n. then l..'s. All engaged as dawn opensi. This was every word. She turned the paper over, examined tlie back and held it up to the light to see if there were not some faint lines she could not otherwise trace. There was nothing more except '"2'.il" indented in the pa per by what might have been the wrong end of a penholder. It did not take Dolly I'ayne long to figure out from this that the generals had arranged for an attack on the I'ihI erals just before daylight, probably on the next morning, which was the of the month. Three hours later, just as tiusli was falling, she mounted her horse ami rode away from the planta tion. As slw? cantered out of the gate who should canter in but the Confed erate officer to whom her sister was engaged. Harold." said Isaltel as her lover was dismounting. "Dolly has gone off somewhere. I think to meet that con temptible Yankee she's infatuated with. I've ordered my horse and am going 1o follow her. 1 w ant you to po with ine." Major Downing consented, and the two set off at ouce. Koth Downing and 1'ellowes were lietween the lines and not under Hag of truce or anything to bar their condition as enemies. Dolly I'ayne was going on a far different quest than her sister a ml had armed herself with a revolver, which she car ried in her hand concealed by the fold:, of her riding skirt. Major Downing anil her sister, not expecting that she would ride rapidly, followed slowly, es pecially as they didn't care to make known their presence inopportunely. Suddenly on a rise in tin." road they saw the silhouettes of those sought. Turning into a wood, proceeded unseen till they came enough to hear Dolly's voice. "I looked everywhere for something more, but found nothing. This was the only scrap not destroyed."' "A very important scrap," said lowes. "Who were the generals?'' "I don't know their names." "Anil von re sure this paper placed in the stove by them?" Til stake my life on it." Isabel took iu the situation at once and whispered an explanation to her lover. "He shall never get back with that paper." saiil Downing and. riding for ward, snouted: "Throw up your hands:" Captain l-'ellowcs found himself cov ered before he could draw his weapon. You have the advantage of me." he said. "I suppose I must surrender." The Confederate proceeded to disarm his prisoner and while doing so felt viinething -old against the back of his neck and heard Dully say: "Shall I fire or do you give inV" Downing dared not stir. Fellowes. taking advantage of his enemy's handi cap, drew lus revolver, and the Confed erate was covered by two weapons in stead of one. Meanwhile Isabel, who witnessed the scene, wrung her hands and wept that she could do nothing to aid her lover. "Drop your pitoI." said Captain Fel lowes to his eneuiv. Downing' pistol fell with a thud. Is abel spurred her horse forward to pick it up. but she wa forestalled by her sister, i lien tol lowed a hurried confer ence lietween Captain Fellowes ami Doily, at the end of which Dolly cried out to her sister. "Throw- up your hands. Is; you're my prisoner." Isabel turned her horse's head to leave, but her sister rode tip Inside her and. seiz ing her bridle rein, detained her. The upshot was that Major Downing and Isabel I'ayne were conducted with in the Union line and held there until tlie expected attack bad taken place. Their detention was of short duration. for tlie Union forci" were drawn up in line of battle long befere day ready to receive the enemy. The Confederate generals, seeing that they hail failed to surprise tbe Union troops, soon aban doned the attempt. Often s!nee the war at reunions of the Fayne family the two brothers-in- law meet, and Fellowes never ceases to twit Downing on his failure to recover the paper. A for Mrs. Fellowes, she usually refers to her sister as "my pris oner. l'EKCIVAL SCOTT DUKW. they they near Fel- was How Much Do you lay by each year?
