It is all well enough in the regiment, where people understand it and are prepared for his nonsense, but many strangers are completely deceived at times, and TtiaTTiTn never so much as remon it possible to exist in nose days. Social conditions have changed, too, and in the gathering of our troops in larger garrisons a great many of the unpleasant features of the old life have been eliminated entirely. Indeed, I wish you might stay and Bee more of us. But you are coming again, are yon not?" "If wishing will bring it about I shall be with you again with the coming summer or early in the spring. I have promised Mrs.

Holden that I will return to her if only for a fortnight." The enthusiasm excited among the girls and apparently shared by all the women nresent when this announcement made ought certainly to convince Miss Guthrie that they most reluctantly part with her now and most pleasantly anticipate her future coining. The clamor of voices ia such that for a time no one is conscious of the fact that out i on the parade the regimental line has formed, and that the band is already trooping down the front. Berrien had taken his position as commanding officer. Several subalterns, whose heads were kept rigidly straight to the front, found their eyes wandering furtively over toward the major's quarters. In couples and groups a number of the ladies come sauntering forth, gathering opposite the center nearer the colonel's house, from which point they generally watched the dosing ceremony of the The New Adjutant General of Kansas Has a Eecord in Colorado.

He is Under Contempt ol Court Not a Fine The Denver Version. lor Denver, Jan. 18. The Daily Republican prints the following: W. H.

Artz, who aspires to be adjutant general of Kansas and just appointed by the populist governor, Lewelling, left this state rather hurriedly and under ur ent circumstances over a year ago. His home was recently in Colorado Springs, where he was engaged in the practice of law. He was licensed to practice in the courts of El Paso county. October 17, 1889, and It was in May 1891, that he was charged with practices which caused him to be fined $1,000 for con tempt by Judge Campbell- Contesting the right of the court to assess such a fine, and pending the appeal of the case, he was released on bonds. At this point he made good use of his opportunity to quit the state.

Judge William Harrison, Judge Ira Harris and Attorney T. A. McMorris at once instituted proceedings ia the su preme court for disbarment, but Artz having fled the state no service has yet been secured upon him, and the proceedings are still pending. All the papers, with his record in Colorado Springs, are on file in the supreme court. If he ever returns to Colorado, which he very probably will not, he will be snapped up for leaving his bondsmen in the lurch and will be served with a copy of the papers in the disbarment proceedings, and both cases will be pushed against him.

The case of importance in connection with his leaving the state, was that in which Cog Watson was charged with having raped the little daughter, Alice, of E. C. and Alice Strott. Artz was retained by Watson to defend him. According to the papers on file in the supreme court, and they are a copy of the records of Judge Campbell's court, where a fine of $1,000 was assessed, Artz wrote certain letters to the parents of little Alice Strott, and saw them personally, offering them bribes to quit state, taking with them their little girl, and thus destroying the evidence against his client.

The matter was brought to the attention of Judge Campbell, and he at once assessed a fine of $1,000, Artz to be committed until paid. An appeal resulted in the giving of a bond, and no more is heard of Artz and his whereabouts until he turn up in Kansas as a disciple of Jerry Sunpson. He is a great populist leader and holds the position of chairman of the county central committee of the county in which he has resided since he ned Colorado. WEEK'S MARKETS.

WEDNESDAY. cations do not favor the adoption of any silver legislation at this session.

The house this week voted down Rep resentative Crain's joint resolution changing the date for the meeting of congress to December 31 and for the in-avguratton of president to April 30. Friends of the quarantine bill, which passed the senate, are already actively at work in the bouse, and they nope to get special order for its early consideration repsrted from the committee on rules. The bill authorizes the president to sus-pene immigration and the importation of merchandise whenever he deems it necessary to keep out contagious and infee-tious diseases. Ex-Speaker Reed has been keeping rather quiet this session, but he made a little speech in the house the other day in which he stated a truth that ought to carefuliy studied by the democratic leaders of the present as well as of the next honse. He said: "If the house wants to do business, it can always find plenty of time to do it in; if does not wish to do business, it can find eternity not to do it in." The house committee on the Colum bian exposition is hearing both sides en the proposed repeal of the law enacted at the last session prohibiting the open ina of the world's fair on Sunday.

Both sides are presenting strong arguments from their respective points of view, but it appears that the Sunday openers ure a little ahead when one converses with members of congress. The committee will almost certainly report in favor of Sunday opening. SENATORS CHOSEN'. Sew York Selects Mnrphy as Hiscock's Successor. Albany, N.

It is thought that the man has at least one comrade who has been Hying with him in the dugout. PROBATE COURT CASES.

Everybody respects Rolfe, yet among the younger officers are several who feel no warmth of friendship for him, and, as between man and man, garrison girls can only side with the youngsters. Their story cf their slight differences is sometimes told again and again; the elders' seldom, for theirs would hardly be believed. Little by little the chat and laughter subside. 'Oh, why doesn't she come back?" pouts Miss Berrien. "The ambulances will be here in less than half an hour, and we won't see anything of her." A chorus of girlish voices echoes Winifred's views.

Mrs. Berrien and Mrs. Parker at this moment come forth from the house and look expectantly up the road. "How long they are!" says Winnie again. "What can keep them, "Packing, I doubt not, my child." "But the wagon's gone, trunks and alL It can't be that." "Still, I would not fret about it, Win nie.

Has she not promised to come next spring and pay us a long "Yes, but who knows where we may all be next spring, or what may happen meantime? Every paper we get is full of stories of the ghost dances among the Sioux, and if there should be another Indian war" "Nonsense, Winifred! Don't think oi such a thing. After all this regimen', has had to suffer in Indian battle, you don't suppose we, of all others, would be sent from here to a winter campaign in the northern department? We've seen the last of such troubles, God be thanked!" Major Berrien, his interview with thi officer of the day ended, has just started to rejoin the group on the veranda when he hears his wife's pious words. He whirls around sharply. "Oh, captain, there's one thing I for got to tell you." And the saber of the officer of the day clanks against his leg as Captain Porter faces about. The younger officers go on with their blithe chat; but Mrs.

Berrien has known hei lord twenty long years, and no soonei has the officer of the day departed thai: she hastens to join him. "Dick," she falters, "surely you dc not believe that there is any chance of the Twelfth going, even if there should be trouble? Dick, tell me." "Berengaria, beloved inquisitor," he begins, "I didn't even know there was a row anywhere." But she rebukes him by a single glance. "Tell me, Dick," she persists, and clings to his arm. "You don't think, after all we've been through, that, now that we are so' happily settled here, there is a possibility of such a thing? It isn't only for myself now. It's it would mean more to Winifred than either of us dreams of." He looks at her in silence and amaze.

Then then comes sudden distraction. On the Btnlluess or night there rises a scream of terror a woman's voice up lifted in the expression of an awful shock and agony. Then a dash toward Holden's quarters, every man joining. "My God!" shouts Berrien, "it's Nita Guthrie." Following the rush of soldiers feet, half a dozen ladies, too, have hastened, Winifred Berrien foremost of the lot, At the head of the stairs, on the landing of the second floor, dressed for her jour ney, lies the fair guest of the regiment, a senseless heap, with the blood flowing from underneath her pallid face.

Suspicion Ihat Some Counterfeit Bills have Been Paid by the Treasury. Washisgtox, Jan. 19. Have treasury omcials been redeeming counterfeit money? Such is the natural assump tion after reading a special report sub mitted br Treasurer Iebektr to Secretary Foster this week. This report shaws that the amount paid out by the treasurer in redemption of S500 notes, series of 1874, exceeds bv 54,000 the total amount issued cf that series, whereas it is usually the case that the amount paid out for the redemption of any series of notes is always less than the total amount issued of that series, for the very natural reason that many notes are Taurned up or lost where they are never found.

And what adds to the probability of counterfeit notes havinsc been redeemed by treasury officials with good and lawful money is the fact that there was a dan eerous counterfeit $500 note known to have been put in circulation in 1874 Treasurer Kebeker endeavors to explain by saying that through an error notes of another series may have been counted as in that of 1874, and expresses the opinion that this fact will be clearly shown when the series of lblo shall have all been pre sented for repemption. It is very natural that Mr. Kebeker should try to make this explanation as Mr. Cleveland's secretary of the treasury may feel that it will be his duty to compel Mr. Nebeker or his bondsmen to make good that $54,000.

The house committee on bank in and currency has favorably reported a bill re pealing the present law for the monthly purchase of silver bullion, and it is understood that the committee on rules will report a spedial order setting a time for its but there is a doubt even anions those who favor the bill as to whether it can be brought to a vote.

Evidently mamma does not consider it worth while, 'It would be wasting time, Miss Guthrie, and we are wasting time as it is. Captain Hazlett will never forgive yon, Major Berrien, if you keep dinner waiting another minute.

Captain Rolf will you escort Miss Guthrie? Come, Richard, march!" "After you, Rolfe," says the major, with a bow of extra ceremony. "After you." "Before them, if you please, yon blind goose!" whispers his better half. "Haven't yon sense enough to see he wants to speak with her and that this may be the only opportunity?" "What! Rolfe wants to talk -with her? Why, Miss Guthrie," he booms aloud, hadn't the faintest idea" But here the wife of his bosom lays firm hand upon his sunburned ear and fairly marches Mm forth upon the veranda. Miss Guthrie would indeed have been glad to lead, buf Rolfe's hand, trembling slightly, as she cannot but note, laid upon her wrist, restraining her. "Why didn you tell me you wenteti to talk with Rolfe, Miss U-utfcne queries the major over his shoulder.

with every appearance or concern. tould have fixed it all for you." "Silence, Dick," sternly murmurs Mrs. Berrien. "There is no fun in this affair, and I warn you not another word." Twilight has fallen upon the garrison as they stroll across the parade. The men have vanished from the scene, but the tinkle of guitar and banjo tells where they have gathered.

Most of the officers are at dinner. One or two couples are just entering the gateway of Hazlett's quarters guests invited to meet the fair visitor on this the last evening of her stay. Dr. and Mrs. Holden can be seen among them, Mrs.

Holden gazing somewhat anxiously at Nina and her escort, for it is plain that Rolfe seeks to detain the woman to whom he has paid such unusual and devoted attention ever since the hour of her arrival. Silence and peace have spread their wings abroad, hovering with the twilight over the broad 'reser vation, and the Berriens, walking rapid ly now, as the energetic lady can lead her expostulating spouse, come suddenly upon the sight of the great golden moon rising above the distant bluffs and peer ing in upon the garrison through the wide space that interposes between the surgeon's quarters and the barracks at the east end. "Now there is something Miss Guth rie really must see," says Berrien, halting short. "As one of her admirers and entertainers, I feel bound to call her at tention to it." Dick! stupid! move on at once, You must not speak to her now. Can't you see?" See? Of course I see, and I want her to see that's why I stop." Again half teasingly, he attempts to turn as though bent on looking back.

She promptly whirls him about and faces him in the proper direction. "Oh," he persists, "if it is something about her you wanted tc nu sm. wui't yrm understand that 1 have no eyes in the back of my head and that therefore I should be allowed tc look about." You see, sir, and understand the sit uation perfectly well as it is. You're simply bent on mischief. You know that Rolfe has been her shadow all day long, hanging about her to say his say.

He knows this to be his last chance. Everybody will be there the moment dinner is over. Everybody will but round her, and unless he speaks now he linn, I Berengaria. von amaze mil Are1 tcr conniving at his capture? i Didn't j-bn tell me you knew she wouldn't have himr; "I know it now; but he is a man who wants to hear his fate from her own lips and plead his cause, too, like a man, unless I am very much mistaken in him. No, sir, don't you dare lookback." "Poor devil! Why couldn't he wait till after dinner? she might be in softei mood then.

I always am. That's why you always wait till after dinner, I pre some, when you have anything special to ask. Now this will take his appetite away entirely." "As if he had any in the first place. Positively, Richard, yon have no soul above a dinner. When a man is as des perately in love as Rolfe, do yon suppose he cares much what he eats? Well, seems to me I was never of) my feed," is Berrien's reply with prefer natural gravity, looking straight to the front nowatid refusing to meet his wife's dark "Your with fine scorn.

"You! Why, Richard Berrien, with all your amiable qualities of heart and weaknesses oi head no one on earth would ever asso ciate yon and sentiment in the same breath. Of course you and your appe tite are inseparable; but Rolfe is differ ent; he is a lover." "Well, what ami?" "Yon are simply a goose tonight. Come, don't stop at the gate now; push right on into the house after the Hold- ens. run up to Mrs. Hazlett's room with Nita." A dozen of the fort people only havt been bidden to dinner, for hardly a din ing room at the post is big enough oi more, and on the porch anxiously await ing the coming of bis guests is Hazlett.

"Where are Rolfe and Miss Guthrie? asks he as men will ask. "All here now but them." "Coming at once; only a few steps behind us," promptly answers Mrs. Berrien. "Run in, major; 111 wait foi Nita." Berrien looks as though he medi tated a mischievous remark, but something in her voice and manner tells that instant obedience is expected. He gives one quick glance and steps into thehalL Presently, while chatting with others of the arriving party, he is conscious- of the swish of skirts passmg up the stair way.

The door to the veranda is still open, and glancing out Berrien can set. Rolfe alone leaning against one of the wooden piUars, bis head drooping as though plunged in deep thought. "Poor old chap! he's got his conge to night, and that the end of his two years romance. Odd about that girL She fancies nobody." Three hours later, the moon being well up in the heavens now, and the whole parade shining revealed almost as bright as day, both the verandas and the parlor of Hazlett's cozy home are thronged with officers and ladies, chat ting merrily together. The lights are still blazing in the barracks.

The trumpeters in full force are grouped about the flagstaff sounding the last notes of tattoo. The Holdens have borne Miss Guthrie away with them, that the ladies might stow their evening gowns in the waiting Saratogas and then don their traveling garb while the quartermaster's big wagon trundles the luggage down to the railway station. Presently this lum bering vwiicle can be seen slowly roll ing away from the Holdens' gate, and everybody at Hazlett's waits impatient ly for the return of the party. Mrs. Holden is deservedly a favorite in the garrison, and Nita Guthrie, as has been aid, has won golden opinions.

The evening air is growing chill, however. and of the dozen ladies present only the younger, the girls, remain longer upon toe veranda. About this pretty group, laughing and ehattmar. are four or five of the younger officers, Brewster, "the swell of the rrabs," aeepihg close to Winifred Berrien, and claiming more and more of the glances of her big dark eyes.

The broad, fertile valley under the bluffs, forest fringed along the stream, gives forth a faint, pungent, smoky odor, and the eye wanders across its soft undulations, its vistas alternate glade, grove and shadowy pool, and sees it all as through some filmy, intangible veil. The sharp outlines so characteristic of the frontier at other seasons, giving to the ridge to the northwest that razorback guise that inspired the original explorers, Kentuck-iana and Missouriana, to refer to the range as "Hawg Buttes," are mellowed Into softer curves. There is an echo sprite abroad in the autumn skies, for the distant whistle of the trains, the pun! and pant of engines miles aw3y, the rumble of the express as it flies across the wooden truss at Big Bend far down the valley, the lowing of cattle and the tinkle of their bell3 at the farms beyond the reservation lines, the shouts and laughter of village children scouring the stream banks for the last of the year's crop of beech or butternut, the soft laughter of the ladies gathered in the veranda of the major's quarters, all come floating through the pulseless air to the listening ears of the sentry -dawdling here along the post at the western gate and distracting his attention from the purely military functions which he is called upon to perform. Over at the guardhouse many of the men are drowsing in the afternoon sunshine. Among the stables the horses are standing at the picket line, with drooped heads and lazily swishing tails.

The officer of the guard, knowing the colonel to be away on a late shooting excursion and the major held at home by the demands of hospitality, has dropped into a doze while sitting bolt upright at his wooden desk. i -Jfy God! it's JVito Guthrie." Scores of the garrison proper seem inclined to follow his example, and the tall, dark faced, black bearded soldier a handsome fellow leaning on the "breast-high wall over at the east end midway between the nospital at the edge of the bluff and the junior surgeons quarters, his chin on his arms, his cap pulled well down over his eyes, seems to have been sncken by the general som nolence. It is only the ladies who are wide awake and alert, for this is Nita Guthrie's last appearance, so to speak. She has been paying a brief visit to Dr. and Mrs.

Holden, kinsfolk of hers, but is to take the east bound train this very night. Mrs. Holden goes, too, leavin; her lord, the junior medical officer of the station, to the mercy of the other wom en, and of all the families of some thirty married officers stationed in this big garrison not one is unrepresented at Major Berrien's today, for Nita Guthrie has won all hearts. But this, say those who liave known her long, is an old, old story with Nita; she has been doing the same thing for years. There is tang of suggestiveness about this statement; moreover, it is true: Miss Guthrie is not in the first bloom of youth.

hy, she must be nearly thir ty," say some of the younger girls and younger matrons, who envy her none the less the freshness, the grace, the win-somenes3 that hover about her mobile face; but those who are in position to know and have no reason to feel the faintest jealousy assert very positively that Nita is not more than twenty-five. "Well, why hasn't she married?" is the instant query of Mrs. Vance, to whose benighted mind it ever appears that be cause a woman hasn't she cannot. "Simply because the right man is yet to come," is Mrs. Harper's equally prompt reply.

"Nita Guthrie has had more offers in six years than any woman I ever heard of." "Then there must be something back of it all," responds Mrs. Vance, whose theories are not to be lightly shaken. "Was there some early affair? "My dear Mrs. Vance, I have no doubt 2 could tell you a dozen stones, all plausi tie, all in active circulation when last 1 visited St. Louis and saw her in society there, and all as near the truth, prob- iiily, as any we could invent here.

Isr body knows but Nita, and she won't tell." Now a3 the autumn sun, all red bur nished gold, is sinking to the horizon on this final day of a charming and memor able visit, Nita Guthrie is bidding adieu with laughing, kindly cordiality to the little coterie gathered in her honor. To one and all she has the same frank, gra cious manner. Over all she throws the same odd magnetic spell, seeming to im press each and every one in turn with the same idea, "Now, yon are just the most thoroughly delightful creature I have ever met, and I cannot bear to say goodby to you." There is the lingering hand clasp, and yet not the faintest sen timnntaiitv. Nita's blue eves very blue gaze straight into those of her mends. She seems to advance a step or two, as though eager to meet and take by the hand each newcomer.

Even the elders among the women find it hard to go. and as or the girls, they linger spell bound; they cluster about her, watch ing the sunshine in her face, the play of her the sparkle of her eyes, drinking in her winsome words, her rip pling laughter. "It's just the only chance we've had to ourselves, Miss Nita," protests Wini fred Berrien. "You've been surrounded -by men all the rest of the time, and we couldn't see yon now if it weren't that they had to be in stables. Oh, if you only didn have to go tonight" "Indeed, Winnie, I don't want to go.

It seems to me nothing can be more delightful than life in an army post like this. Certainly no girl ever had a better time anywhere than yon have given me here, and it is so unlike what I fancied it might be." "It is entirely unlike what life on the frontier used to be, Miss Guthrie," answers her hostess, the major's wife, in her calm, placid way. "Any one contrasting our beatitude of today with our life here, there and everywhere over the west during the Trtflian campaigns in which the regiment was incessantly engaged can only wonder how we found 5 jmm-js is day. But still oblivious to any music but that of her voice a dozen of thcii number hover about Miss Guthrie. Even gunfire fails to distract their attention.

It is not until the major himself returns, tossing off his helmet and tugging at Ins waistbelt, that they realize that parade is over and dinner waiting. Now, you will come back next springy "ion will writer "ion won forget to send me the photograph mind, cabinet size Miss "Indeed il ever I get anywhere near St. Louis you'll be the first soul 1 shall come in search of. It is a little flock of enthusiastic army girls surrounding her, maidens whose early lives had been spent wandering from river to mountain, from the gulf to the Columbia, to whom city life was almost a revelation, and city belles beings from another world. Winifred Berrien is the leader of the coterie, girl whose eyes are as dark as Nita's are blue, and they are ready to brim over at this very instant.

Here comes Captain Bolfe for you now, and we've got to let you go; but well all be down to see you off at train tame. The man who enters at the moment and stands just within the heavy Navajo portiere, smilingly looking upon the group and quite unconscious of the al most vengeful glances in the eyes of the young girls, is a cavalry officer aboui thirty-five years of age. He is a tall fel low. somewhat heavily built, yr-t well proportioned and athletic His face by long exposure to the snn am' wind of the wide frontier. His browi hair, close cropped, has a suspicion ol erav just silvering the temples.

His eyebrows are thick and strongly marked The eves beneath are deep set and fringed with heavy lashes. The mus tache, sweeping from his upper lip, is of a lighter brown than his hair, but equally thick, heavy and curling. Other wise his face is smoothly shaved, and is one which impresses those who look upon it, even carelessly, as strong and resolute. He still wears the double breasted coat, with shoulder knots and fonrratrere, just as he had come off parade, though he has exchanged hel met for forage cap, which latter headgear at this moment is being dandled in one hand, while the fingers of the other beat rapid tattoo upon the visor. Com rades of Kolfe would tell you this is a sign that he is nervous; yet to look at him there, smiling upon the group, quite as though remarking what a pretty pic ture they make, no one else would be apt to think of such a thing.

i Ready in a moment, Kolfe, shouts the major from an inner room. "You ready, Berengaria? "I am always ready, Richard, as yon well know," is Mrs. Berrien's placid response. "I think I never kept you Wait ing so much as a moment." "Promptest woman in the army or out of it," booms the major from his sanctum, his jovial voice resounding through the rooms of the bright gam- Bon home. "Never knew anything like it, Miss Guthrie.

Why, do you know. even when I wasn't half proposing she never let me finish the sentence! 'Twasn't at all what I was going to ask her that day, at least. Meant to eventually, of course, if I ever could muster up courage, but this time I had only found grit enough to ask for her picture, and I was engaged in less than ten seconds. Winnie Berrien rushes from the par lor into the paternal den, voluble with protestations against such scandalous stories at mamma's expense; but Mrs. Berrien, slowlv fanniner herself, remains calmly seated, as though impervious to these damaging shots, at which every body else is laughing merrily.

"Possibly you don't believe me," again booms the major, his jolly red face aglow, as he is dragged forth from the den, still struggling with the sleeve links of his cuff. ''Winifred, my child, unhand me. Jionll never bring your old father's gray hairs in sorrow to the grave by such unwomanly precipitancy, unless it's a civilian with ten thousand a vear: will you, dearest? Miss Guthrie, I never expect to be a rich man. I hadn't as many dollars when I fell in love with Miss De Lancy as I had buttons, and we only wore single breasted coats in those days, and I was the junioi captain. I pledge you my word I never would have had the cheek to offer ''my self.

I was shaking all over. I b-beg par don, I stammered, I was only going to beg for your p-p-p My promise? said lierengana, sweetly, looking up into my eyes. 'You have it, Prompt? Why, she just jumped at me.

Splendid arrangement, though, Miss Guthrie. She furnished the quarters and all the money, and I the vivacity and beauty of the household, until Win nie came; she contributes a little toward it But we're a model couple, aren't we, Berengaria?" And the major bends with playful tenderness, the fun sparkling in his eyes meanwhile, and kisses his handsome helpmeet's rosy cheek. We have few crosses, certainly," replies Mrs. Berrien, whose own name is anything Dttt Berengaria, that being, as she is frequently called upon to explain, some of the major historical nonsense, "We have few crosses, and those of course I bear. But now," she continues, with much decision of manner, "if you are partially restored to sanity we will go, or keep dinner longer waiting.

Miss Guthrie, do they allow lunatics at large in the streets of St. Louis? Major Ber rien spoke of getting a month's leave this winter and going thither." "Oh, send him by all means, and he shall be treated at our own asylum. Father woul 1 rejoice in him as I do, Mrs. Berrien "And shall I get the colonel to detail Rolf here to conduct me thither and turn me over to the asylum authorities?" queries the major, with a knowing cock of the head. "Rolf hates city life as a general thing, but he would accept that duty, fancy.

"Captain Rolf will be very welcome. Indeed, I only wish yon might bring the whole regiment, major. Just think what a good time the girls would have this winter if that were only possible. "Berengaria says," bursts in the major again, "that if I only show yon proper attention on this visit you'll be sure to send us invitations to bring the whole family and spend six weeks at least. "Father, yon outrageous fibber!" gasps Winifred, rushing at him and placing one slim hand upon bis mouth, while twining the other, with its soft, white arm, about his neck.

The rumor caused a general panic among the lonss and for a time there was a. wild scramble to see who could sell the most wheat in the hortest time. The result was a break of 2i from the opening figures and 25 cents from the high Epoint reached on Monday. The close was at a slight recovery. From other Live a toe Oenteri.
