' CHAPTER XIX "••
• That night there was rejoicing at the
new stockade. For over a week not a
courier had managed to slip through
in either direction. Alarmed for the
safety of the little garrison, the com-
manding officer of the post away up at
the gorge of the Big Horn river had
1 sent two troops of cavalry to scout the
slopes of the mountains and look into
the state of affairs at Warrior Gap.
They found countless fresh pony
traeks all along the foothills east of
the Greasy Grass and in the valleys of
the many forks of the Deje Agie—the
. Crew name for Tongue river—but not
an Indian did they see. They marched
in among the welcoming officers and
men at the bustling post to find them-
selves hailed as heroes. “We’ve been
cut off from the world for at least ten
days,” said the commandant. “Our
couriers have been killed, captured or
driven back. Even our half-breed
scouts rsfuse to make further trial.
They say Red 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 and says his requi-
sition for $10,000 was ordered filled, and
the money ought to have been here a
•week ago. All will have to stop if the
money doesn’t come. We’re safe
enough. The Sioux don’t dare come
within range of our breechloaders.
But we can't finish the barracks in time
for winter at this rate.”
t-hearted soldier was the com-
offleer at Warrior Gap. He
him now four strong com-
ntry and a troop of horse,
said, but one anxiety, so far
the fort was concerned—

and his braves
then were drawn away in search of
other game, and, light of heart and
foot, the troopers trotted back to the
waiting stockade, to meet there late
that evening, as the weird tattoo of the
drums and fifes was echoing back from
the rocky heights, the first messenger
through in nearly fifteen days—a half-
breed Sioux from a distant post along
the Platte, bearing a written message
from the commanding officer at Frayne,
which the veteran commandant read
with infinite comfort:
“Seven companies of infantry and
three more troops of cavalry are on
the way and should reach you by Sat-
urday week. The general seems thor-
oughly alive to the situation, and we,
too, are hoping for orders to move 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 Hal
Folsom’s ranch. Of course you know
the story of Lizette, and of course Red'
Cloud must have known that Burning
Star was head devil in that enterprise,
though Ghaska was the victim. I
take much comfort in the fact that it
was I who sent young Dean and his
troop round by way of the Laramie.
Folsom and his people would have
been murdered to a man if I hadn’t,
and yet I hear that absurd old ass at
Emory put Dean in arrest for not
coming directly home. Pecksniff
should have been retired teri* years
ago—for imbecility.
“We had a tremendous storm in
the mountains to the south two days
ago and a courier has just galloped
out from Emory, inquiring for news
of Dean. It seems he was sent with a
big sum of currency for your quarter-
master, and ordered to slip through
by way of Sweetwater, as Red’ Cloud
was known to he covering the direct
road. Somehow it leaked out before
he Started, and a gang of desperadoes
gathered to jump him at Canyon
Springs. The storm jumped them, for
two of their dead and a dozen horses
were rolled out on the flats. Dean
must have got through all right, for
Bat saw their trail fifteen miles above
us. Of course, he’ll have to make

Don’t Marry
Almost everybody remembers the cele-
brated advice of the London Punch, "To
those about to marry. Don't.” There
is in that advice the expression of the
feeling of many a mother who says, "I
hope my daughter
will never marry
and suffer as I
have.”
In ninety-eight
cases in every hun-
dred there’s no
need for this suf-
fering. Doctor
Pierce’s Favorite

eases which cause
wifely misery. It

night marches; but, unless Red Cloud
gets wind of his coming and corrals
him, he should reach you almost as
soon as this. Michel, the bearer, has
your dispatches and orders. Retained
copies are here. Good luck, old man,
and may we meet within the fort-
night and wind up Red Cloud once and
for all time.”
This was all, hut more than enough.
Riding night and day in wide detour,
Michel had madie his way to the late-
ly beleaguered spot, and what he
brought was joyous news, indeed.
Within the coming week the post
would have no more to fear. Within a
day or two the contractors, then,
would have their money, and that
would tap the sutler’s stores and joy
would reign supreme. Enviously the
soldiers eyed the artisans. Not for
weeks could their paymaster be looked
for, while the funds for the civilians
might reach them on the morrow,
provided Red Cloud did not interfere.
He couldn’t and wouldn’t, said the
commander, because fye and his braves
were all off to.the southeast, hunting
buffalo. He could and might, said
Michel that night at ten o'clock, aft-
er taps had sent the garrison to bed,
for by the time he left Frayne there
were other riders up from Gate City,
' ” the garrison'had learned that
was taking something like
fid dollars in greenbacks
the Gap, with only ten men to
t, and Maj, Burleigh was wild
with anxiety lest he shouldn’t get
through, and had been nearly crazy
since he heard of Dean’s narrow es-
cape at Canyon Springs. The officer
of the day who heard- this story told
it, with the teller, to the post oom-
munJer, and that veteran sat up
late and cross-questioned long. Mi-
chel’s English might be broken, hut
not his statement. The last arrival
at Frayne before he left was one of
Maj. Burleigh’s own men from Gate
City. He said the general and his
staff were expected- at Emory the
next day, investigating matters, for
old Stevens had got stampeded be-
cause his sergeant major was assault-
ed and old Folsom knocked out and a
drunken captain by the name of New-
hall had been making trouble and it
had all told on Maj. Burleigh, who had
taken to hia 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 at
davrn, full half an hour before the time
for reveille, theTe came a sharp knock-
ing at the door of his log hut, and the
imperative voice of the officer of the
day:
“Colonel, colonel, I say! There’s
sharp firing out here in; the hills to
the south!”
The peaks to the west were just ting-
ing with purple and red, reflected from
the eastward sky, and a faint light was
beginning to steal down into the deep
valley in which the cantonment lay
sleeping, when the veteran commander
came hurrying out, half dressed, and
hied him, with his attendant officer, to
the southern angle of the stockade.
There on the narrow ledge or platform
built under the sharp tops of the up-
right logs, were grouped the silent,
grave-faced guard, a dozen men, intent-
ly listening. Thither presently came
running others of the 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 be heardi the
pop, pop of distant musketry, punc-
tuated sometimes with louder bang as
of large caliber rifles closer at hand.
Little time was there in which to
hazard opinion as to the cause. One or
two men, faint-hearted at the thought
of the peril of Indian battle and hope-
ful of influencing the judgment of their
superiors, began the murmur of “big
hunt,” “buffalo drive,” etc., glancing
furtively at the colonel the while as
though to observe the effect. But an
imperative “Silence, yon idiots!” from
the officer of the day put sudden end
to their conjectures. Only a moment
did the commander listen. Then, quick
and startling, came the order: “Sound
to arms!” and within the minute the
stirring peal of the cavalry trumpet
was answered by the hoarse thunder
of the snare drum, beating the long
Out from their “dog tents” and *
ed log huts came the be-
wildered men. Often as the alarm had
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
frock coats and belting on their swords
as they glared about them for the cause
of the uproar, came the officers, old
and young, most of them veterans of
many hard-fought fields of the war
days—one or two, only, youngsters
fresh from the Point. At many a door-
way and unglazed window appeared
the pallid faces of women and children,
some of them weeping in mingled
fright and distress. In- front of 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-
voiced non-commissioned officers re
buked the laggards and. aided them
into their belts, and each first sergeant
took rapid note of his men. No need
to call the roll, a skulker would have
been detected; and kicked into the ranks
at the instant. Over under the rough
board shelter of the quartermaster’s
employes the workmen came tumbling

out in shirt sleeves, many of them run-
ning to the nearest officer and begging
for a gun and a place in the fight, for
now the firing was ioud and lively.
Down1 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. For five
minutes there was clamor, but no con-
fusion. Then disciplined silence reigned
again, all but the nearing volleying at
the south. Presently, at rapid trot the
cavalry, some 50 strong, came clatter-
ing up the stony trail from the stream
and with carbines advanced disap-
peared. through the main gateway in
a cloud of dust. Two companies were
told off to man the loopholes of the
stockade. Two others under the com-
mand of a senior captain faced by the
right flank, and! in double-quick time
danced away in the wake of the cav-
alry. Eagerly the watchers climbed
the wooden walls or to tne tower of the
half-finished guardhouse, and, as the
red light strengthened in the cast and
the mountain sides became revealed,
studied with their glasses or with
straining eyes the southward vista
through the hills. They saw the troop
form line to the front at the gallop as
It swept out over the open ground 400
yards away, saw its flankers scurry
to the nearest shoulder of bitiff, saw
their excited signals and gesticulations
and presently a sheaf of skirmishers
shot forward from the advancing line
and breasted the low ridge 800 yards
out from the fort, and then there came
floating back the sound of ringing,
tumultuous cheer as the skirmishers
reached the crest andi darted headlong
at some unseen object beyond, and aft
er them went the reserve, cheering too.
And now the sound of firing became
fierce and incessant, and messengers
came galloping back to the commander
of the steadily advancing infantry, and
they, too, were seen to throw forward
heavy skirmish lines and then resume
the march. And then, down over the
ridge came a little knot of horsemen,
made up of three men riding close to-
gether, the outer ones supporting be-
tween them the comrade in the center.
Before they were within 400 yards the
young adjutant, gazing through his
glasses at the colonel’s side, exclaimed:
“It’s Dean—dead or wounded!!” and
one of the surgeons ru6hedfforward' to
meet the party. “He's weak, sir, al
most gone from loss of blood,” ex-
claimed Trooper Conroy, himself bleed
ing from a gash along the cheek. A
faint smile, drifted over 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 $10,000 in that
packet. We had to fight our way
through,” and then the brave blue eyes
closed and strong arms lifted the al
most lifeless form from the saddle as
Marshall swooned away.

LIQUOR IN GAMP HAS
A BIG MAJORITY.
Washington, Dec. 6.—The house
of representatives today passed
the army bill by a vote of 166 to
133. Three Democrats, Messrs.
Hall of Pennsylvania, and Under-
hill and Olayton of New York,
voted with the Republicans for
the bill, and Mr. McCall, Republi-
can, of Massachusetts, with the
Democrats against it.
The proposition, to which some
of the Democrats attempted to
commit their side in cancns, an
extension of the present tempora-
ry army until July 1, 1903, which
was voted upon indirectly on a
motion to recommit, commanded
the votes of only about half the
opposition and two Republicans,
Mr. McCall and Mr. Mann of Illi-
nois.
Many of the Democrats, howev-
er, voted against the motion be-
cause they were not only opposed
to the reorganization bill, bnt be-
cause also opposed to the tempo-
rary army at its present strength
Quite a number of amendments
were placed upon the bill before
it was passed.
The liveliest fight was made up-
on a substitute offered by Mr.
Littlefield of Maine, for the can-
teen section. The substitute ab-
solutely prohibited the sale of
intoxicants at military posts. It
was supported by Messrs. Little-
field, Grosvenor, Rep., of Ohio;
Dick, Rep., of Ohio; and Hay
Dem., of Virginia; and opposed
by Messrs. SlaydeD, Dem., of Tex-
as, Fitzgerald, Dem., of Massachn
setts, Pearce, Rep., of Missouri,
Parker, Rep., of New Jersey, and
Bartholdi, Rep., of Missouri.
Large delegations from the W. 0.
T. U., which is in session in this
city, watched the fight from the
galleries. When the vote was
taken the prohibiting amendment
was carried by an overwhelming
majority, 159 to 51. Mr. Bartholdt
attempted to secure a record vote
in the house bnt the peonliar par-
liamentary status shut him out.
Following is the amendment to
the bill as offered by Mr. Little-
field:
“The sale of or dealing in beer,
wine or any intoxicating liquors
by any persons in any post, ex-
change or canteen or army trans-
port or upon any premises used
for military purposes by the Unit-
ed States is hereby prohibited.
The secretary of war is hereby
directed to carry the provisions
of this section into fall force and
effect”
Tfouim Women
The entry into womanhood is a
critical time tor a girl. Little men-
strual disorders started at that time soon
grow into fatal complications. That
female troubles are filling graveyards
proves this. Wine of Cardui estab-
lishes a painless and natural menstrual
flow, when once this important func-
tion is started right, a healthy life will
usually follow. Many women, young
and old, owe their lives to Vine of
Cardui. There is nothing like it to
give women freedom from pain and to
fit young women for every duty of life.
