"An alarm , sir I don't know what It all means , but It's to quarters , " The onlorly rushed from the room , Sartaln followed , but a curse from Mvr- rlck stopped him "You have Insulted me , kftenant , " ho Bald , "and now > nii are running awny " "I'm goliiii to my ilutj , " Sartaln re- ispondcd "My country first , my sweet heart next , and then , dcmme , jou , sir.

He grasped his colonel's hand fiercely. "I'll sleep well for that sir , " he said and ho turned back through the line of low fires that flickered on the snow-dampened earth. ColoneJ Galteamp moved along , alone. lie heard voices a few rods down one of them a little louder than the icst nnd apparentlj Inspired by nn Intoxicant. Another voice much lower , broke Into the other's some what excited speech. H was an unusinl thing this late confusion In a camp thai needed rest , and Colonel Galteamp went slowly , even curious ! } . forward When ten feet away from the tent In which the nolsj soldlei was talking with the quieter one the olllcer stopped. "I'll bhow It to him , trust me for that teftenant , " the drunken man said With that ho staggered out and turned'about the corner of the tent "Who goes there ? " called Colonel Gait- camp In the faltering glow of the djlnp lire the olllcer thought that he recognl/ed ni. Insubordinate private , Mulligan by name u worthless recruit who gave more trouble than his services , In ordinary times , were worth There was no answer to the colonel's summons Ho hurried forward and threw up the ( lap of the tent to catch the owner of the quieter voice The place was empty "An odd circumstance " Colonel Galtcamii murmured "It is worth remembeilng" Slowly the officer walked to the end of the line , turning back again tor his own quaiterfi Ho pasted the tent of the mvstciluus con- vcnutlon , noted Its location , looked about It eniefully and went on He reached the spot whcro ho had said goodnight to Sartiln He thought of the joung fellow's deferred marriage , of his gallantry at the front , of his loyalt } lu the face of disappointment , and lastly he thought of the fair niliaboth. He dreamed again of his own youth and mur mured over the name of a woman who had long parsed out of his life forever Sartaln should have his leeva when opportunity offered , thought the wa-rlor. His devotion to f\o cauiies was of the unswerving kind that deserved recognition Thus did Colonel Galteamp allow his mind to wandci free while he walked along that nlsht path In the shadow of the cneni } His thoughts woio away from the sect CP about him e\en the Incident of the tented conversation had been forgotten , "Who goes there ? " called out a dark flguic In front Colonel Galteamp gave the responses and spoke to the sentry "Is It jou , sir ? I am glad. " "Your nerves are not on cdgo this black night , I'erklns ? " Colonel Galteamp de manded , "Indeed , jes , " the soldier responded "Hattllng leave-s affright me , I do believe" "I'ew leaves heie-about in the snow , I'er klns It must ho In jour mind " I'erklns stopped His brow eont.acted "It Bounded Ilko someone In dry leaves " "Or iky snow ? " the colonel added Perkins looked about nervouslj and nod ded Colonel Gaitcamp passed on. As ho turned to his own tent he again heard the familiar drunken voice It seemed nbout three loils to the right The ollkcr quickened his steps In another Instint a voice rang clear above the ) gentler noises of the camp "You lie jou hound ! Ihery word Is a lie1" It was Surtaln's voice "Yer an olllcer , It-Helmut" the drunken VDlco responded "An1 I in Mulligan with nary man t' vouch fer me honest } Hut It Is I saj Httlo 'LUboth gl\o It t1 me " The Bound of rushing feet did nt < drown the groan that escaped Sartaln's lips , nor did llcrco commands destroy tl.o clear voice * af the leftenant as iiu called upoi his God to support him There1 wcs no other word The only sound that came from the two men was a short dull report. The } oung le'ftenant's great fist had shot out and when Colonel Galteamp reached hi. protege's side. Mulligan , the drunkard , lay dead at Sar- taln's feet , his neck broken. In his hand ho held a tin ) locket , whose long , slender chain marked a line line lu the enow. I'AHT III "MYSOLninil !

Sartaln walked as u man In a dream , the chain of Elizabeth's locket eaught to one of his fingers , while the bauble Itself diaggcd lu the snow. He fell on a cot In the superior officer's quartcis , and there ho moaned like a hurt child. "Come , sir ! " Colonel GHltcamp com manded , "be a man , sir , and spe ak to me. " "Cetra > cd !
