CHAPTER V. Continued. "I have heard papa nay that life Is Bhort and the tenure of office uncertain. I can remove you at any time I please. Now do you understand that this Is a Berlous business? There's likely to be a lot of trouble, and no time for asking questions, so when I ay It's so It's so.". . "It's so," repeated Ardmore do ellely. "Now, here's the sheriff at Klldare, on our side of the line, who writes to say that be Is powerless to catch lie's afraid of the Applewelght. dark, that man! You see, the grand Jury In Dilwell county that's Kll dare, you know has Indicted as a common outlaw, but the grand jurors were all friends of Applewelght and the Indictment was order sentl only to satisfy ment and appease the Woman's Civic league of Kalelch. Now. nana doesn't I mean I don't want to offend those Apple-weig- ht ship business is Just fluffy nonsense, and I wouldn't be anybody's obedient servant. I decided when I wasn't more than 15 years old, with a lot of other girls In our school, that when we got married we'd never say obey, and we never have, though only three of our class are married yet, but we're all engaged." "Engaged?" "Of course; we're engaged. I'm en gaged to Rutherford GlUIngwater, the adjutant general of this state. You couldn't be my private secretary If 1 wasn't engaged; it wouldn't be proper." The earth was only a flying cinder on which he strove for a foothold. She had announced her engagement to be married with a cool finality that took his breath away; and not realizing the chaos into which she had flung him, she returned demurely to the matter of the letter. "We can't change that letter, because it's signed close to the 'obedient servant' and there's no room. But I'm going to put It into the typewriter and add a postscript" She sat down before the machine and Inexpertly rolled the sheet into place; then, with Ardmore helping her to find the keys, she wrote: I demand an (mediate reply. "Demand and immediate are both business words. Are you sure there's only one m in Immediate? All right, If you know. I reckon a postscript like that doesn't need to be signed. I'll Just put 'W. D.' there with papa's stub pen, so It will look really fierce. Now, you're the secretary; you copy It in the copying press and I'll address the envelope." She bade him give the letter plenty of time to copy, and talked cheerfully while he waited. She spoke of her friends, as southern people have a way of doing, as though every one must of course know them a habit that Is illuminative of that delightful southern nelghborllness that knits the elect of a commonwealth Into a single family, that neither time and tide nor sword and brand can destroy. "Well, that's done," said Miss Jerry, when the letter, still damp from the copy-preshad been carefully sealed and stamped. "Gov. Osborne will get I think maybe it In the morning. we'd better telegraph him that It's coming." The message, slowly thumped out on the typewriter, and several times altered and copied, finally read: It would be sure to Injure the state's credit, and it will be a lot more fun to catch Foster. I wonder If he took all the state money with yet. him." "Mr, Bassford said he didn't know and couldn't find out, for the clerks In the treasurer's office wouldn't tell blm a single thing." "One should never deal with subordinates," remarked Ardmore sagely. "Deal with the principals I beard a banker say that once, and be was a man who knew everything. Besides, It will be more fun to attend to the bonds ourselves." The roll or drums and the cry of a bugle broke In upon the peace of the Miss later afternoou. Jerry rose with an exclamation and ran out Into the broad portico of tho statehouse. r regiSeveral battalions ef a ment, passing through town on their way to Camp Dangerfleld, bad taken advantage of a wait In Raleigh to disembark and show themselves at the capital. They were already baited and at parade rest at the side of the street, and a mounted officer In kbakl, galloping madly Into view, seemed to focus the eyes of the gathering crowd. He was a gallant figure of a man; his mount was an animal that realized the solJob's Ideat of a battle-horse- ; diers presented arms as the horseman rode the line. Miss Dangerfleld waved her handkerchief, standing eagerly on tiptoe to make her salutation carry as far as possible. "Who is that?" asked Ardmore, with sinking spirit. "Why, Rutherford GlUIngwater, of course." "Four right!" rang the command a moment later, and the militiamen tramped off to the station. It was then that Ardmore, watching the crowd disperse at the edge of the park, saw his caller of the morning striding rapidly across the street. Ardmore started forward, then checked himself so suddenly that Miss Jerry Dangerfleld turned to hlra inquiringly. "What's the matter?" she demanded. "Nothing. I have been robbed, as I hoped to be.
