tnat pierced i.is soul. ‘‘Keep ' those
kisses for miiafii. She w111 have the
right to love you. Site is of your aris
tocracy, she is not ‘uiisexed.’ As for
me. I a:n only a little trooper, who lias
saved my comrade! My soldiers, come
round me one instant. I shall not long
lira] words.”
Her eyes closed as she spoke. A
deadly faintness and coldness passed
over her, and site gasped for breath.
A moment, and the resolute cour
age in her conquered. Her eyes open
ed and rested on the war worn faces of
her “children”—rested i:i a long lost
look of unspeakable wistfuiness and
tenderness.
“I cannot speak as I would,” she said
at length, while her voice grew very
faint. "But I have loved you. All is
said!”
Ail was uttered in those four brief
words. Site bad loved them.
She stretched her arms out with a
gesture of infinite longing, like a lost
child that vainly seeks its mother.
**If I could only see France once
more! France”—
It was the last word upon her utter
ance. Her eyes met Cecil’s in one fleet
ing upward glance of unutterable ten
derness; then with her hands still
stretched out westward to where her
country was and with the dauntless
heroism of her smile upon her face
like light she gave a tired sigh as of a
child that sinks to sloe}.', and in the
midst of her army of Africa the little
one lay dead.
*******
In the shadow of his tent at midnight
he whom she had rescued stood look
ing down at a bowed, stricken form be
fore bim with an exceeding yearning
pity in his gaze.
The words had at length been spoken
that had lifted from him the burden of
another’s guilt: the hour at last had
come in which his eyes had met the
eyes of his friend without a hidden
thought between them. The sacrifice
was ended, the martyrdom was over.
And in this hour of release the stron
gest feeling in him was the sadness
of an infinite compassion, and where
his brother was stretched prostrate iu
shame before him Cecil stooped and
raised him tenderly.
“Say no more,” lie murmured. “It
has been well for mo that I have.suf
fered these things. For yourself, if
you do indeed repent and feel that you
owe me any debt, atone fer it and pay
it by letting your owu life be strong in
truth and fair in honor.”

CHAPTER XXIY.
XDXR the green springtide
leafage of English woodlands
an old horse stood at pasture.
Sleeping, with the sun on bis
gray silken skin and the tlies driven
off with a dreamy switch of his tail-
sleeping. yet not so surely but at one
voice he started and raised ids head
with all the eager grace of Iris youth
and gave a murmuring noise of wel
come and delight. He had known that
voice in an instant, though for so many
years his ear had never thrilled to it.
Forest King had never forgotten. Now
scarce a day passed but what it spoke
to him some word of greeting or of
affection.
With his arm over the horse’s neck
the exile, who had returned to his
birthright, stood silent awhile, gaziug
out over the land on which his eyes
never wearied of resting. Then liis
glance came back and dwelt upon the
face beside bim, the proud and splen
did woman’s face that had learned its
softness and its passion from him
alone.
“It was worth banishment to re
turn.” he murmured to her. “It was
worth the trials that 1 bore to learn the
iove that 1 have known”—
She. looking upward at him with
those deep, lustrous, imperial eyes that
bad first mot bis own in the glare of
the noise of the assembling battalions
could be heard by night and day, a
grave where the troops as they passed
it by saluted and lowered their arms in
tender reverence, in faithful, unasked
homage, because beneath the Hag they
honored there was carved bn the white
stone one name that spoke to every
heart within the army she had loved,
one name on which the Aran sun
streamed as with a martyr’s glory:
G. A. R. ENCAMPMENT.
Old
Soldiers Preparing to Attend
Gathering at Cleveland.
General orders No. 7 of the Grand
Army of the Republic, Issued from the
St. Louis headquarters by Commander
In Chief Rassieur, are filled with valu
able information to members in rela
tion to the forthcoming national en
campment to be held at Cleveland next
month.
This will be the thirty-fifth national
encampment of the Grand Army of the
Republic, says the St. Louis Globe-
Democrat. Oa Sept. 11 an open unoffi
cial meeting will be held at the central
armory in Cleveland, at which address
es of welcome will be delivered by
Governor George K. Nash of Ohio, a
comrade, and Mayor Tom L. Johnson
of Cleveland, and responses will be giv
en by comrades and members of auxil
iary organizations. The circular an
nounces the names of the committee on
credentials, of which Thomas B. Rodg
ers, assistant adjutant general, depart
ment of Missouri, is a member, and
that a special parade order will be is
sued to the various state departments.
Colonel It. E. Burdick, having been se
lected as marshal by the citizens’ com
mittee, will act as assistant of Com
rade Edward N. Ketehnm, senior aid
and chief of staff, and he will select 45
aids, 6x-soldiers of the Spanish-Ameri
can war, residents of Cleveland, as
guides for the departments to their
places of formation. Ernest Kretsch-
mar of post 13, department of Missouri,
is appointed color bearer and Christian
Fricke, post No. 1, department of Mis
souri, bugler during the national en
campment.
In the orders are included proposed
amendments to the rules and regula
tions of the order. One amendment is
proposed by the department of Kansas
asking that the men of that state who
were driven into the Confederate army
by conscript laws and were compelled
to remain until they were enabled to
escape to the Union lines be relieved
from the ban placed upon them by the
constitution, which provides that “no
person shall be eligible to membership
who has at any time borne arms
against the United States.” Kansas
wants to insert “voluntarily” after the
word “time.” This amendment if adopt
ed will let into the ranks of the G. A.
R. many true, faithful and gallant sol
diers who were forced into opposition
to the Union forces, but who joined
them as soon as they possibly could,
yet who are barred by the above quot
ed clause. The departments of Ohio
and Oregon also propose amendments
to the rules and regulations.
Commander in Chief Rassieur an
nounces the following appointments of
aids-de-camp on his staff and their as
signments to duty in their respective
departments. They will report by let
ter to Edward N. Ketehum, senior aid-
do-camp and chief of staff, Galveston,
for instructions:
Kansas—S. B. Harwell, post G9, Os
born.
Missouri—W. R. Oder, post No. 107,

Huntington, lad., Sept. 17.—Joseph
A Wiiainan; a United Brethren minis
ter, was tarred and feathered by a crowd
of 100 last night and turned loose to
wander back home. Sunday night he
rose in a prayermeetiug iu one of the
city churches and said:
“I suppose there have been more lies
told from the pulpit and sacred desk to
day than was ever known before. While
I want to give all honor that is due Mr.
McKinley, still when he was living he
was nothing but a political dema
gogue.” ^ i
At this juncture a number of people j
became so indignant that they arose
and left the church.
Yesterday the citizens decided on the
above summary action and carried out-
their plans. Wiidman has no regular

Hearing Postponed at Request of the
Prisoners’ Counsel.
Chicago, Sept. 18.—The anarchists
habeas corpus proceedings have been
adjourned until Monday next at the re
quest of the counsel for the prisoners.
Fear of mob violence, should the an
archists appear on the streets, was the
chief influence with the prisoners in
allowing their attorneys to make the
motion which wili beep them behind
the bars another week. The recess was
acceptable to the court, to the attorneys
and others interested because of the dis
inclination to transact business during
the period of the nation’s deepest mourn
ing.
The reason given the court by Law
yer Geedng for the anarchists was that
it was bis client’s wish to give the po
lice all reasonable opportunity to prove
their charges. It was privately admit
ted by counsel, however, that the an
archists feared to be unprotected until
after the burial service at Cantou ou
Thursday. The prisoners were irqcocrt
hardly long enough to get settled in
their seats when the recess was taken
and they were marched out again.
Their faces were expressionless, but all
breathed a sigh of relief when the court
announced that the jail would be their
home until the demonstrations were
over.
Emma Goldman received the news of
the postponement with her customary
jibes and declared that she feared no
mob. She is. still incarcerated in the
Woman’s Annex of the Harrison street
station. The hearing of her case was
set for Sept. 19, but it is probable the
proceedings will then be postponed uu

One remedy against indigestion Is
matrimony. At least The Lancet tells
us that it is the celibate young barris
ter, the lonely curate in lodgings, the
struggling bachelor journalist or busi
ness man or clerk who suffers most
from premature dyspepsia because he
eats alone. He generally reads during
his meals, which is bad, or he reads
directly he has bolted his food, which
is likewise had. Obviously, therefore,"
matrimony is a bar to indigestion.—
