“Are the blank cartridges made?" I
Innocently asked Bradley.
“Blank nothin’,” he replied, with evi¬
dent surprise at such a question; “the ,
boys all use fixed ammunition and it
would be no end of trouble to change it.” ■
“But,” 1 remonstrated, “it will be ter¬ ,
ribly dangerous to have all those fellows
pumping lead out in the excitement of
difference, “some accidenta tW»-on)y may happen,
but if they do, why, make ,
the racket seem more'natural like and
give an air of earnestness to the exhil¬
aration.”
“At the expense of human life.”
“No fellow tfver gets killed without
time has come; and If it has, a bean
dropping off a shelf will do him up
as fine as a cannon ball could.”

innocently plug a friend and MichaelGarrity neighbor.”
An Irishman named
camo in from a prospecting tour the
evening of tho 3d, and was -wild with
eagerness to bo enlisted in the patriot
army, but even Bradley thought ho was
“too excitable to be permitted to mix in
the proceedings if tho health of others
was any consideration." By dint of great
persuasion Michael was induced to fore¬
go the pleasure of “taking a pop at even
a sham Englishman.” and to lend his in¬
variable aid in certain work Bradley and

They looked at each other expres¬

other, "Ho is not to blame,” and then
Bill said with a smile:
“That’s all right. But there is no oo-

Jim and I are friends, however things

“Cert,” assented Jim curtly, adding to
me, “There ain’t any liard feelings be¬

just laid out to shoot this match off in a
way that will settle it without Mary get-

I think, would not have deterred me
from speaking if by so doing I could
have accomplished anything, but I well
