10 THE OMAITA PATLY BEE ; SATlfalDAY , MAY 28 , 1892-TWEiyVE PAGES. A DOUBLE WINNER. Edwonl / * Ktvctnl'MIulcli > lila Vreu. I. All wns bustlontthoCnrllslobarrncks. A horaornco for Rontlotnon rldors was to coma oft in eight dtvys , nntl not even the prollmlnnrics had boon nttondod to. The affnlr lintl orlgltmtod the night before in the mesa hnll , wlilch ixt ( julto n Into hour hud us its occupants n number of ofllccra and some of the aocloty raon of the town. It hnd boon decided thnt there should bo but eight entries : four from the bar- rncka and four from without This re striction loft the flold : Wntty , Buddie , Gruhuin and Ltirkor of Carlisle , and Quills , Kcdwood , Can tor nnd Hracho of ttio service. The latter four tire now occupied in looking over their respective mounts nnd wondering who will bo the lucky dog. For It was to bo n gain day and the town and the neighboring counties would turn out ennmsso and all most lovely and loved surely bo on huiul. It was to bo a hurulo race , each hurdle of different height nnd formation. The last was to bo built of common sawbucks piled upon one another and braced from the further side bya tier of whisky barrels. This barrier" was conceived by Jack Cantor , a tynlcal daredevil , and the beau sibrour of the barracks , who proudly saw his nrohiloutural design constructed. To all it did not present qulto BO pleasing a countenance. The civilians entered no objection whatso ever. In fact , Mr. L'irkor had boon hoard to remark , while viowlng it , that if his horse "took it , it would bo the first time in his lifo ho had felt above whisky. " The cavalrymen , with ono exception , naturally found no fault with the do- vico. They spoke of it as "tho Rubi con , " and the "Bridge of Sighs , " and joked about Cantor's whisky making several vacancies in the corps. But Mr. Quills , the post adjutant , freely ex- prcaticu liis disapproval , not on the ground of the liquor , but on the exist ing partnership of sawbucks. Ho thought either , alone , would bo quite sulllciont. In fact , on several occasions ho showed his disapprobation , which appealed to bo strongly llavorcd with timidity , and once ho was so undiploma tic us to do so in the presence of Colonel Mtirthurulo. But this hero , a rigid disciplfnarlan and a cynic , partly attributable to cognac gout , silenced the young man forever on the subject , by saying : "Mr. Quills , when I was your ago a whole distillery would not have funked mol" which statement , it may bo remarked , was true in more than ono sense. A coincident of the projected affair was that M IBS Larkor , sister of ono of the civilian riders , stood In the same no- sition toward Watty and Gi'uhum as did Miss Nottloton , the dashing daughter of n rotited army olllcer in the town , with Quills and Cantor. And though all of the rldors wore opris In certain direc tions , yet it was truthfully predicted that interest would center in the iibovo named four. Mr. Quills had sustained his reputation for previousncss by stating publicly that his colors wore to bo blue and pink. Had ho sai'dluiss Nottloton's , it is doubtful if his purpose would have boon more ap parent , for this combination was strong ly idontilicd with her. Miss Larkor , who , though a beauty , was popular with men largely becausa of her ability to discuss any subject whether the book of Job , or the latest remedy for spavin with perfect ouso and astonishing information. Sh6 had many admirers , but it was generally acknowledged that among her local knights Mr , Watty and Mr. Gruhum were the most favored. In the bobom of each of the amateur jockeys there pulsed th o hope that ho would bo the winner in the race , which was simply for the glory of the thing , and the love of fair women. II. It was the day previous to the raco. Everything had been arranged satis factorily. The sun was streaming down upon as perfect a track as had over boon seen in that section. The faces of oven these who passed in the street seemed to betray a look of joyful expectancy. All was couleur do rose. The track was a mile course and oval in shape , and on each side , at proper intervals , stanch posts had been erected , nnd strong ropes , three in number , run through , making a substantial fence. During the past few days the gentle men who wore to riilo had not boon idle. Their animals had been duly exorcised nnd they had port > onally teen the great est care , and every attention had boon given them. Jack , who had expressed no opinion from the beginning , saw dangerous rivals in Quills and Watty ; while on the other hand Gruhum and Larkor feared Jack. Quills feared none ; ho felt con fident of success , at the same tlmo heartily wishing Jack out of the way. However , ho backed his mount against the flold. Ills horse was known to bean an awkward antagonist , possessing staying powers few of tins others could boast of ; but his own deficiency In riding was a point not overlooked by Bovontl of the contestants. It is not my province to comment upon the motive which may have prompted him to do so , but it is my duty to record that just before "Taps , " the ndjulnn Isought Colonel Martingale , and reported Lieutenant Cantor absent from afternoon stables , and from "retreat" nnd tattoo rollcall , " "Place him at once in close arrest , Mr. Quills , " was the toply of the martinet , who. oven had ho been Interested in the race , would not have permitted any such digression lo interfere with existing reg ulations and ardors. And the obedient adjutant , not in the least indisposed , wont oil to do his bid ding. A few momenta later lie knoked on the door of Lieutenant Cantor's quartern and eiilcrcd. Thcro he found Jack , with Snalllo , Chioh , Watty and Larker engaged in the duvclonmont of a jackpot. _ 'Lieutenant Cantor , I have to piano you in oloso arrest , by order of the com manding olHoop , " ho said. "I open it for a stack , " observed Jack to his companions , shoving the collat eral into the center of the table ; and than turning to Quills- , for whom ho had a irrant dislike , added : "Put on your saber if you wish toaddroasmoollldally , Mr. Adjutant. " Mortified beyond measure , and the smothered titter of the others being dis tinctly nudiblo , the executive of the commanding olllcer withdrew , and pro- uoedod to obey Instructions jjlvon htm by his Biibordinato In dnto of commit- ) alun. Ho then returned , properly per formed his duty and immediately with drew. "Wliut's up ? " "Wliat'rf the mutter , J ekV" "liang the luoUl" and various ptlior quorlqs and expressions wore made by the friends of the-- unfortunate luutcmtnt. Making no reply , ho asked to bo excused from the game , and prom ising to return shortly wont to his bed room , whore ho wrote the following letter : Dour Ml Notllototii If ho ralKht , with out nnv Inconvenience , do so , u'.caso ncrsuntlo your father to nsk Colonel Martingale and Lieutenant Quills to tllr.o nt your lio'Jsu to morrow * Heraomunr tomorrow ! Ant pleasa do not lot the dinner hour con Illct with tlmt sot for the raco. 1 will explain when 1 scoyoj. As cvor , J. G. Having properly Inclosed nnd ad dressed this ho roused his "boy , " who , in point of years , was greatly his senior , nntl directed him to deliver it at onco. Then ho returned to his frlnnds nnd the play wont on. The game continued until an early hour , and Jack , as usual , found himself a little out. " But such trlllos never annoyed him ; in fr.ct , ho was noted for the grnco with which ho losU What did provoke and disturb him no llttlo was his present situation. Hero it was al most the day of the race , and ho in close arrestl And for whntV For the first time ho asked himself this question , which had not before occurred to him. Ho was unable to recall anything hu had done lately to merit such action on the part of the commandant Notwithstand ing this , ho was fully conscious of the awkwardness of his position ; and , op timist though he was. ho could take nothing but a gloomy view of his sur roundings. Ho unlocked his bureau drawer and took out a likc-ncss encased in blue nnd pink plush. This ho looked at for a few moments fondly , tenderly and reverently ; then , holding it to his lips , whispered : ' 'I will ridel" Though insomnia and Jack wore not oven acquaintances , the first call for rovolllo was ringing out upon the crisp morning air and sleep had not visited him. "This will not do at all. " ho said fretfully ; "I must got a cat nap some how. " Soon ho was resting quietly , as the physicians say , though utterly igno- rant'of the conflict in which the slutn- beror may bo engaged. " The news of "Jack's mishap spread rapidly , and very general were the ex pressions of sorrow. "Surely the old Sticker will lot up on him for the race , " remarked young Berkeley in the presence of the adju tant. "I doubt it. " replied the latter ; "you icnow several times .lately the colonel has given warning in respect to neglect of duty , and it is my bollol ho intends to make an example of him. Hard luck , I confess. " " luck I " exclaimed Cinch "Curso , say , , who was a true friend of the prisoner , nnd had backed him heavily. "Jack would have won beyond doubt. " "Docs money or chin say that , captain - tain ? " inquired Quills with a provoking smile and much swagger. "Both , Mr. Quills , to any amount and to any extent. But , as poor Cantor is out of the race , I'll go you fifty that his horse wins if ho runs. " "I'll take that , " answered the adju tant , drawing the money from his pocket. And with this Captain Cinch crosses the parade and cntois Jack's quarters. III. The race was sot for 6 o'clock , yet as early as 3 carriages began to arrive and take positions behind the ropes. Pedes trians , too , of all ages and conditions were seen thronging in ono direc tion and eagerly conversing as they wont Groups of men wore congregated about the judges' stand , and many of those allowed the privilege of the quartorstrotch wore already there , dis porting themselves and expressing , un asked , their opinion , which you were assured might bo relied upon. As the hour drew nearer greater became the stream of carriages. Vehicles of every style and description , from the one- horse shay of our grandfather's titr.o lethe the stylish ' "trap" of Inter days , wheeled into line , burdened with fair women and their escorts. All the ladies of Carlisle and vicinity were thoro. The barracks had sent a full comple ment. Colonel Martingale , who had left the post rather early , in company with hia adjutant , to dine at General Nettle- son's , had turned over the command to Major Snaflle. This gentleman , rocog- nizcu us the best poker player and the worst "drill" in the army , took no in terest in races , consequently ho ac cepted the situation complacently. The band from the barracks was peal ing forth inspiring strains and everyone was at the pitch of expectancy when Mr. Quills drew near to the dog cart , whereon , as pretty as n vision , perched Miss Nottlcton. His shirt was of silk , half blue and half pink ; his cap of the regulation jockey pattern , quartered with the same colors and the handle of his whip was decorated with a bow of blue and pink ribbon. No doubt could exist as to his colors. " 1 am wearing your colors , Miss Not tloton , " ho said , lifting his cap and plac ing ono foot on the stop of her cart. "Will you not wish mo success ? " "But I have nothing blue or pink about mo. " She was plainly clail in a snugly-fitting gown of dark green cloth. "But they are your colors , you know , and I wish thorn to win , " ho continued. "Leaving mo out of the question , if you are going to bet you may rely on my horbo. " "But all of you have confidence in your mounts. " "Po&sibly. " was the reply , "but I feel perfectly safe now that Cantor is cut out of it ; and I have backed " ' Mr. Cantor cut out of it ! ' * she ox- olaimed , showing far too much concern than was agreuublo to her listener. "Why ! what can you mean ? I know several who have backed him ; and here , " referring to hqr program , "is his name in the list of entries. " "All of which is unquestionably true , " remarked the adjutant in a patronizing way. "But Mr. Cantor is under arrest at the barracks , and bin presence here is an utter impossibility. " "Why , how unfortunate ! I confess I am sincerely sorry ! Does any ono ride In his placoV" asked Nolllo carelessly. She instinctively felt that Quills was in some way connected with her friend's conllnomont and determined that ho should not know the real state of her feelings. "I believe not ; nnd now I must go. Remember Gray Kaglo wins all laid on him ! " and he wan off , The Information just Imparted to her was quite sulllciont to rob Miss Nottlo- ton of all the pleasure the race prom ised. ised.'Poor 'Poor , dear old JaokP'Hho said men tally. " 1 wonder what ho bus been up tonowV" And at this moment Mr. Quills , mounted on his suporo iron grav , at whoso headstall wore rosettes of ' 'her colors , " trotted by. Watty and Gruhum , both tastefully dressed and displaying ono or more evi dences of the modest heliotrope , lope uluwly by and MUs Ltirkur looks justifi ably happy. Hod wood and Braeho then appear , the former with purpla as his color and the laltor somewhat pale be neath hlti crimson cap. Uuddlo looks unusually well In his familiar black and white humi'St ) , and that ho. is a favorite with many is shown by the applause with which ho is greeted , which may , however , bu partly intended for Larkor , who follows cloau behind , the brlirht green of his cap being the only distin guishing color , And around the track thuy go cbuflinff cacti other pleasantly as they near the formidable structure conceived by the absent ridor. The judges' stand Is comfortably filled ana the grand stand packed. The stU'tor Is at his pott- when ye ? , hero comes another jockoyl Clothed in a dark blue , tightly-fitting jacket , white cords and top boots , with a yellow silk handkerchief wound into a tut ban about his bondho springs lightly into the saddle uf the magnificent black animal , which , in the sruuo bright colors of the corps , is Impatiently paw ing the air "Jnckas I'm a sinner ! " "I'll ba flayed if It isn'tCantorl"from Cinch and Berke ley , respectively , cause Miss Nottlcton to look up , and while she quickly raises a yellow spun umbrella , with llowltig streamers of the same shade , n prolonged yell of satisfaction , principally from these aware of the situation , bursts upon the air as Jack trots briskly by to join the others by all of whom save ono ho Is sincerely congratulated. It soonn needless to add that thy exception is Mr. Quills. Not a word passes between Jack and the adjutant , and It is too late for the latter to seek the commandant for special orders suited to the occnsion.nnd ho dare not avail hi in sol ( of theproioga- tlvo of his olltco. Grinding an impreca tion between his tooth ho presses his horse into position and , at a signal from the stand , away they go. And in line as even as if on parndo are llvo of them as they pass the starting point and arosotolf Braehe , Watty and Larkor a trillo to the rear , laying low. The stirring strains of the band nro almost lost amid the shouts that ring but upon the air ; then all is still. Uvory eye in that vast assemblage is bent upon the fiying steeds and their hopeful rld ors as they bond to their work. Easily may each bo distinguished without the aid of glass. Miss Nottloton sees them ncarlng the first obstacle and as Gray Eaglu clears it IIrat she la conscious of a disagreeable sensation in her throat. Jack and Watty take the barrier almost simultaneously and in their wako stead ily , swiftly follow the others. , Gray Eagle still loads , and , not wish ing to lesson his distance , his rider ap plies the whip with the blue and pink trimming. The indignant brute makes a sudden side spring , almost unseating Watty , who is now lapping the Iron trray. But it is no time for apologies or compllinonts. Gray Eagle takes the bccond hurdle almost at the same in stant as Watty. Jack's yellow dressed black beauty clears it prettily and then ' the perfect 'little- head which has boon hold as if in a vise is conscious of partial freedom. The sm'all pointed nose Is i cached out on a line level with his withers , and the horse spreads himself in grateful recognition. Quillb knows the sound of those hoofs clattering behind him , and muttering a silent prayer , supplemented by a curse , , ns ho sees Lancelot's black nose at his side , he again resorts to the whip. And now Larkor's l.vrgo roan and Gruhum's sleek sorrel mare , touched to the quick at the restraint they had suffered , with magnificent leaps closeup upon the lenders. As Watty's plucky bay slips over the third hurdle , leadimr the field , a triumphant shout from the excited crowd Is borne to his oars. "Bless your sweet lifo , old girl , " ho muttoros inwardly as ho presses his logs closer to the strained Hanks. A side glance rove Us to him the whi'.o tapered nose of Gruhum'a sorrel , and lapping on his loft Is Gray Eagle who , maddened under the whip , is plunging on. Lincolot's cars are laid back ; his thin , pink and transparent nostrils quiver as the white foam shoots from his mouth in bursts of temper Hocking his broad chest and the dark jacket of his rider. Jack loans a trillo more forward and whispers almost in his oars : "Win any way I Never rnind me. " Fully con scious of the slackened rein , and as if sensible of the words spoken , the noble animal bounds forward arid , before the other barricade tis reached has passed Watty and ' is runninir nock- and-ncck with Gray Eagle. Together they rise , so ovonfy. so gracefully it almost seems as if their action is me chanical. Over in a heap goes poor Gruhuml Watty's bay just clears-him ns lie rolls over and out of the way. ' Larkor , Buddie , and Brmsho have o's- capcd injury and are now'giving nn exhibition of splendid horsemanship , as they swoop down upon these in advance. Nock and neck go the gray and black and snouts 01 "liray liaglo wins ! " * Any part of a hundred on Gray Eagle ! ' ' "Two to ono on Lancelot" roach the oars of Miss Nottloton. The excitement is Intense ! Bets of hundreds are laid on each by their dif ferent backers. On they plunge with the awkward barrier before them ; be hind them thunder the others , straining every nerve in mad endeavor to win. Snap ! goes poor Larkcr's saddle girth , and he instinctively checks his horse with a auddon jerk. But , horrors ! What is that ? Not twenty yards from the Hying horses a toddling child slips through the ropes and is upoa the track. Thousands hold their breaths ; thousands of hearts for an Instant cease boating ; thousands of prayers are muttered as shouts of men and shrieks of women fill the air. On plunge the gray nnd black neck and neck ! Jncl > on the outside and the in nocent little ono quite unconscious of all danger immediately in his front. Ho throws hi-nsolf well over to the left nnd slightly forward ; then , with almost superhuman pressure , clings with his off log to the maddened beauty that is bearing him on. It is a moment of sup pressed suffering of unspeakable an guish. Not a sound Is heard save the clatter of the horses' feet. Every eye in that vast throng is riveted upon the yollow-turbancd horseman and his black stood. Jack is conscious of a numbness steal ing over him an lightly , Kwiftly , grace fully , like a swallow , ho swoops down , grasps Romothing , and then dashes on with a soft , Hutly lump of humanity pressed close to his boating breast ! A yell like that sent up from Hodden Field rends the air. flats nro fiung upl Women wild , frenzied with excitement , tear off their bonnets and filng them high. While on they dash , rapidly nuarlng the last hurdle. For ono in stant ho rolled ? ! It is a moment ol porill Ho grasps his little burden nut ! his lingers tighten like withes of stool in its garments ; another movement of the arm and it is swung outward to the side IIH if it wore a parcel , utmost hit ting the nose of Gray Eatrlo. who Etiorta angrily. Another shudder ol horror passes over the crowd. Othoi prayers are sent upward , as prepared for the worst , but hoping for the host Jack touches "Lancelot" with the spur , makes an almost Imperceptible- motion of his left wrist and the Hublcon is passed in safoty. Instantly the llttlo ono is again gathered to his heart , us confident of tafcty nnd success , ho whis pers : "You brought mo luck , my llttlo soldier. " Watty and Braeho , Quills , Buddlo and Itedwnod are now rising to the uglj barrier. Watty's brute balks and refuses to take It. Huddle is over nnd so is Braoho , but no is on his back on the ground nnd his riderless steed swoops down the track. Redwood makes t handsome leap but what is the imittoi with Gray E'igloV Ho rises gracefully and then , apparently forced to do su falls back upon his haunches. Hotly pursued , but distancing all Jack , with his warm , crowing prize li hid arm : * , amid piercing yells , sweeps by the crowd nnd tlii jUugcs' stand a win ner !
