of youth and bcatity. Youth Is alit to ask

Hut fashion has added itmi dictum to ( hat

mnasks Itself under the somber coloring
which marks the winter of Its life.

So this Faster morning the notable doings
of time voclai world are largely In prospec-

sldcrod urnclentiy brilliant to lntertero with
the proper degrco of humility during Lent
have had their day and the stage Is once
moro cleared for a new and bewildering suc-
ceseton of gaycUes. Society has put on new
hifo with its Easter bonnet and If society
be one-half as gorgeous as the bonnet , what
a life It vhll lead. But it Is to be hoped that
t. It wili eiow better taste than the bonnet
makers. Tho.o startling combinations of
color which adorn the heads of the fashionable -
. able women on this occasion would be but
sorry models , V
Have the milliners gone mad ? What
ivomami with a scintilla at the artistic soul
haD not felt her flesh creep at the sight
of these mon'trously ugly creations. Huge
stalks of field flowers In colors such as nature -
turo miever painted , roses that rival the

of the imaginatIon can ever reconcile. But
; ; , It fahlon decrees that society shall be gaudy

complies. "It Is shocking at first , " cent -

'rho week past has brought only the usual
round of quiet diversions , but with Easter

day she received a telephone message from

and drawers and got out her old hats and

one of the best liorlsts and amked for a z

f. home , excllangel the real violets ( which
, she sent to a sick frIend ) for the artificial I
bunch , wrote a breezy , wItty little note , and
Lent them to the station by the coachman , r
ten or fifteen minutes before the time time a

and nmong the yottng alld promilment ofllcers

milid they will run us out special at 11:30 :

The lieutenant ilickod imp a collection of
p00108 and read 'hcre lIe opened time book :
Tell me Hot , aveet , I am tmnkbud ,
'FlInt from tile nunnery
Of thy chnte breast mind quiet mind

"Oh , Jim , " she broke in , " 'hiy don't they
try to civilize these poor , ilunted Indiamis ?
Are they all so bad ? Are tlmere no good
ones among them ? "
_
"ios , " said tile soldier , with a lmalt smile.
"They are all good except t1ioa that. eticapo
in battle. "
"But tell me , love , how long yihl this Indian -
dian war last ? "
"As Icing as tllC Sioux hold out , " said the
soldier.
At 11 o'clock that night the young lieutenant -
tenant said good bye to his girl wife and
went a'va : ' .
Time scouts were stationed near Juleahurg , V
\'illci1 was then the terminus of the Union
Pacific track. The special engine and car
( hint carried Lieutenant Murie fromn Omaha I
arrived at noon , ( lie clay after its departure
from the banks of the itlicaauri.
Mtmrie Ilad been married less than six
mnomiths. For many moons time love-letters I
that came to camp from his weotheart'a
hand had been tue sunshine of his life.
An hour after the arrival of the special .
a scout came into camp to say timat a large i
band of hostile Sioux had come down from
the foothlils , and wcre at that moment
standing , as if waiting-even inviting an
attack , amid not a thousand yards away. If
we except thin officers , the scouts were nearly
all Pawmieo Indians , who , at the sigimt or
scent of a Sioux , were as restless as caged I
tigers. They had made a treaty with this
iicstile tribe once , but tile treaty hind been
broken and mammy Pawnecs cruelly niur-
( lcrel by the Sioux. This crime was never
forgotten , and when ( lie government asked
the Pawnees to Join the scouts they did sa . I
cheerfully.
Time scouts ( lid not keep tIle warriors waitI
lng long. In less than an hour , Lieutenant
Murio was riding in the direction of ( lie
Sioux , with N. C. Creede , now famous as
tha founder of Creede camp , second in command -
mand , followed by 200 Pawnees , vhmo wore I
spoiling for trouble. The Sioux , as imsuni ,
outnumbered tile government forces , hut , as
suai , the dash of the darimig scouts was
too mmmcli for the liostiles , and they were r
forced from the field ,
Early in the exercises , Murie and Creede I
were surrounded by a party of Sioux and F
completely cut oft from time rest of time corn-
mand. From those embarrassing environments - C
ments they escaped almost miraculously. All
through the fight , wllicli hasted twenty miii-
utes or more , Creede noticed that Murie C
acted very strangely. He would yell and I
rave like a mad man-dashing here and
there , in the face of th greatest danger. At F
times he would battle singlo-lmmtnded with a r
halt-dozen of the flerceci of the. foe , and his
very frenzy scorned to fill them with fear.
When the fight was over Lieutenant Mono
called Creedo to him and said ho had been
shot 'in the leg. Hastily dismounting , time
anxious acout. pulled oft the officer's hoot , c
but could ace no wound nor sign of blood.
Others came up and told the lieutenant that
his leg was as good as new ; but he insIsted
that ho was wounded and silently and ccii- s
lenly pulled hic boot on. Tlmen he remounted Im
and time little band of invincibles started for
camp. The Pawnees began to sing their
wilti weird songs of victory as they vent
along ; but they had proceeded only a short
distance when Murle began to complain
again , and again lmi boot was removed to
show him ( list Ime was not hurt. Somno of
tIme party chatted him for getting rattled
vor a little brush like that , and again In ti
lilenco lie pulled on his boot and they COntinued - ,
tinued en to camp. im
Diamnounting , Murie limped to tIle cur-
eon's tent and some of hits companions fol-
owed hlimn , thlnkbnF to have a good laugh

mult of imagination , and that there was no
