IT was nine .o'clock In the evening Major TnllAferro nnd hi mirst were Bitting In bin office room chatting. A clatter of horse' hoofs was licurJ nt the front of the house 'iui'd "some one dismountt-d If another moment there was n trump 'l cntalry boots In the ball; all turned k the open door and there fltood Cap tnln Cameron Fltz Hugh. For n moment he regarded Mark mid Laura sternly; then adranclnst 11 few steps ho bowed low to Laura. "Captain," sold the major rlaliij;. "I upposo it Is useless to deny to title lady nnd gontlemnn that I deemed li my duty to uinko sure of their Ideu tlty before allowing them to pass. The family to which they claim to beloiiK Is known to you: therefore 1 sent to you for Information. I seo you lime answered my Inquiry In person, ir you vouch for them I shall bo happy to pass them In the morning, nnd shall apologize for their detention nt the samo time my excuse being tbo cnuxc wo serve." All eyes were Ozed on Fltz Hugh. Mark's nnd Laura's with III concculed anxiety. "This was Miss Fnln." sold Fltz Hugh. "She would not be traveling as any man's wlfo unless sho wero mar ried to him. If you detain thorn, you must do so ou your own responsibil ity." Doth Marie and Laura drew a sigh of relief. "I bare no desire to detain them," said Taliaferro, "after what you hove said, but It Is altogether too late for them to proceed tonight, The only amends I enn make for discommoding them Is to mnku thorn comfortable Mrs. Green, your room Is ready for you." Captain." said Mnrk. "may I beg a cigar I usunlly smoke at this time of night" viUfcro aro cigars, gentlemen," said Taliaferro, producing n box. "If you smoke, cnptaln," added Mnrk. "1 shall be pleased with your com pany." "With pleasure." All lighted cigars, nnd Mnrk nnd Fltz Ougli Ht rolled out on the vcrnndn "Cuptnln." Huld Murk as soon as they wero outside, "I havo never met n iniiti whom I have so udmlred, so honored, ns you, and yot I have robbed you of your loro. This lust act of kindness to her and to me, so woll Indicating your mnguunlmtty, Is more than ! can bear. 1 cannot accept anything more, even for her sako. I cannot stay here jo bo shielded by you nnd behind her "bkl'rts. 1 niu about to leavo this ve randa nnd fly to tho Onion lines. Thank God. I have met ouo who Is the soul of honor, In whose' charge I leave m wlfo. Oontldcr her under your caro. She will doubtless need all you can give tirrt for I never expect to seeher again. I shall doubtless be see hi cuplui captured before tomorrow noon. If you wero not my enemy. If you una Sot been my rival, I would love you as a brother." " "Vltbout Walling for a reply Mnrk left the veranda, and in another mo menl was lost In tbe darkness. Captain Fltz Uugh stood ns one pet rifled. Should bo keep tho secret Laura's secret? no leaned against a pillar of the veranda and passed bis band over his brow., lie could not stab Laura; bo could sot even betray tbo man who had left her In bis caro. no did nothing. Half nn hour hnd elapsed when Tal. lafcrro, who had been busying blm elf with somo papers, began to won der what had become of the two men De got up und went out on tbo veranda. "Where's Green?" ho asked quickly "Gone" - "Gone?" Tes, gone hnlf nn hour ago." "What docs this mean, CameronT "It menus that I havo been keeping from you what I can keep no longer or 1 would. This man Green is a Federal spy." "Cameron-my friend-great God- aro you a traitor? There Is something back-toll me, quick." "Twice beforo he has crossed my rath, no was taken and tried nt Chat tanooga. I was dotalled to dofend blm, I hnd never seen- blm before. He was found culltT and sentenced to be banged, but escaped. "When I met blm again It was at tho Fains' bouso. Laura Fain, tha wo man upstairs, then my betrothed, but sow bis wife, was concealing mm." "Well?" "I saw that she was Infatuated, with blm. She claimed him for her guest. "Wall, ko on." "I could not honorably Inform on blm."'

Ho walked away before me." "And you?" "1 permitted him." Taliaferro shuddered. He knew that bis fdond by bis act bad placed blm self In a terrible position. Cameron," ho said, "do you know you aro liable to be shot for this?" "I do." "I always told yon," the major went on anxiously, Impatiently, "that your notions of honor were absnrd, qulxot Ic" "Tho highest sense of honor Is never quixotic. It is best fitted for a Chris tian, a soldier and a gentleman." "And do you expect mo to let this py go?" "No. Protect yourself the causa Bend after blm. It Is I who bare con nived at bh escape, not you. Ton must not suffer." "Tho causo alone Is enough." "Orderly," ho called to a man stand Ing by tbo gite. Tbo soldier approached and stood at attention. "Go tell Captain Heath that tho man who was here this evening baa gone. and 1 want blm followed and brought back. Tell blm to send by all the roads." Tho man saluted and went away. "Cameron," said the major, after giv ing the order, "God grant that this act of yours may not be known. It will not be, for I am tbo only ono who knows of it, and It will never pass my lips." r'l am responsible for my act, and If it becomes known 1 trust I shall bnve courago to meet the consequences like man. Tho young wife who was left In my charge 1 leavo in yours. 1 would gladly protect ber mysolf, but I prefer to sparo bor the pain of being under ay protection. If her husband Is token and sbo needs me, send for mj." As soon as bo bad gono Taliaferro called a negro woman, and told ber to go to tbo lady's room and ask ber (If sbo bad not gono to bed) to como to blm, as bo bud n communication to make. "Madam," said the major deferen tially, "your husband has gone." "Where?" asked Laura, with a blanched cheek. "Ho wallrd away In the presenco of Captain Fltz Uugh, who would not do- tain blm or Inform mo that be bad gono till bo was obliged to do so." Laura clasped hor bands and mutely breathed a blessing on tho man who bad spared her husband for her sake. "How long has bo been gono?" sbo asked. "Moro than half an hour." "Dovo you ordered bis pursuit?" "I have." "And ho has a start of "Thirty minutes." "You'll never take blm. He bears a charmed life." "And now, madam, what can I do for you? My friend charged mo to aco that you havo every attonuon." "1 will go on and Join my mother." "Tonight r "Toulgbt-now." "Your phaeton shall bo at tbe door in fow minutes. You must accept my escort. Thoro will bo a guard be sides." In ten minutes Laura, Major Talla ferro seated beside ber, six stalwart cavalry men In gray about ber, was on ber way to Join ber mother. Mark know tbo direction of tho roaas leading from Anderson, and believed that be could avoid tbo pickets. Mat Ing bis way ovor a spaco covered with bushes and a low growth of umber, bo struck tbo road by which bo bad come that day at a point beyond tbo vedette. Then half a mile's run brought htm. out of breath, to n bouse. Tbe occu pants wero not asleep, and Mark sue ceeded by persuasion and threats In getting a horso to tako blm to Slack's, promising to send It back tno next any with liberal pay for its use. uo arrived at Slack's shortly beroro midnight, and his bono fell exhausted In tho yard. Slack received blm with a shotgun pointed through tbo cracks of tbo door. Mark made nimseir known and asked for bis uniform and his arms. Tho old man got thorn for blm, and taking them to tbe stablo Mark put them on. Then bo went to tho stall whore bis bono stood. Tho mare knew ber master when ho threw his arms about her neck and seemed as glad to see blm as ho was to see ber. "Ah, Madgo, my darllngl Once on your back, old girl, and the dovil may catch mo If be can." He lost no time in putting tbe bit in ber mouth and strapping on tha sad die. Then, putting bis foot In tbe leather covered stirrup, be lined turn self Into bis seat For the first time In ten days Mark felt the comfort of being In the saddle with his arms about blm. A few steps took bin oat of the bars: then, turning bis bone's bead in tbt direction from wblcb be bad ap proached tbe place wltb Souri, be rede away among tbe trees. Before going a fcnadMd 'yard be stooped and Ua- teaed.

Illdo on. bravo boys," said Murk; If you're after me, the faster you go in that direction tbe better I'll like It." In the light of the waning moon he trampled over the shadows of leaves as on a "crazy quilt" Ho crossed the Sequatchie by the ford over which 8ourl had guided blm. and took care not to head too far down the stream, ns ho bad done before. Then he cross ed the creek near the fallen log. He struck the road by which be had left Jasper Just south of tho fork at which Bourl bad halted htm. Without hesi tating a moment he struck out nt a brisk canter over tbe left of tbe two roads-thu one lending to Tracy City. Mark bad never experienced sucb sensations n now On bis own fleet horse, his carbine slung on his shoul der, his pistol nt his side, on tbo road to tbe Union on nips, a wife whom ho adored to Join him In case be should arrive safely-why should not tbe spirit witnin blm fairly glow with hope?
