The officers, soldie_;"s and their families were peacefully sleeping. Not a sound was heard exce?‘pt ﬁthe occasigonal cry of a coyote. ol Three o’c;lotfit struck and the sentinel on post No, 1 started the call: - ‘!No. 1, three o’clock, and all’'s well.”

A slight fmuse and No. 2 responded: *“No. _v2.‘th'rge o'clock, and all’s well.”

Then came a long pause. The ser;L_:ant of the guard stepped out of the guardroom and listened. “The s’éht?nel on No. 3 must be asleep,” he remarked. “Bad business for a seutinel guarding the corral.” ’l‘urninglfo_ No. 1 he commanded: ‘““Start the call again.” - L

No. 1 obeyed. No. 2 took it up. ‘But there agai’n‘ it ended.. The sergeant turned out a patrol and marched to the corral, | s

As he approached the sentinel's post in the moognlight he saw the figure of No. 3 streﬁched out on the ground. The position did not look like that of a sleeping man, ; it “‘Double time!” commanded the sergeant. | :

And thefpatrol came down the post ata run. As the men came closer to the figure a sight met their eyes that froze the blood in their veins. Lying * face dowxi; on the sand. his hand still grasping his rifle, was their comrade, stiff and cold in death, an Apache arrow buried deep in his body. ~ Three sharp cracks of the rifle, the rattle of the long roll of the drum + soon brought the startled garrison. . Scouts were instantly sent out and the plain thoroughly scoured, but no Indian signs could be found. -

The npf_tt day, with muffled drums, the members of the garrison followed the body of their comrade to its last resting pl?ra.ce.‘ With uncovered heads, sorrowfully and reverently, they listened whi.!]e the post chaplain read the burial service. The military escort fired thre¢ rounds over the grave, ynd the bugler played the sweetest of all calls, *“Taps—lights out—sleep.” Naturally a I’gloom was thrown over the whole post. ' The soldiers gathered -in . swall groups and discussed the perplexed question: “How could it have heen done?” The moon had been shining brightly, and there was no cover behind which an Indian could hide. The searching parties came in after fruitless hunts. Night came. There would be no lack of vigilance on the part of the sentinel on post No. 8. The moon was even brighter than on the preceding might. and the objects on the plain could be seen almost as distinctly as in the daytime. Each half hour the call of No. Iwas promptly answered by the other sentinels. | , i .

Few expected a repetition of ‘the preceding night's attack. Gradually the garrison became silent and one by one the lights went out. Moyning came and nothing had happened to disturb the peace of the fort. ’ - Several days passed and the post settled down into its old ways, and the memory of the dreadful event wgs beginning to fade. . b

The officer of the day was making the inspection of sentinels after midnight, and was approaching post No. 3, when the moon, which had been hidden behind a cloud, suddenly burst forth, réveal'ing at the very feet of the officer the body-of the sentinel as before, completely pier¢ed by an Indian arrow. | : The alarm was quickly given, but in spite of the most careful search no trace of the assassin could be found. A horror settled over the post. No one dreaded dan enemy they knew and could fight openly, but against such ghostly attacks no one could defend himself. chien At officers’ call the next morning the affair was earnestly discussed. It wus evidently wrong to require a sentinel to walk post in such an exposed and dangerous place, and yet, with the corral where it was, no one could see how it could be avoided.

While discussing the problem an orderly appeared and reportéd: | “Private Rogers would like to speak to the commanding officer.” : The commanding officer went into his private office, and after the interwview returred to the room where the . officers were assembled. : “Young Rogers has asked permission to take charge of post No. 8 at .might until he solves the mystery, and I have granted his request.” The faces of the officers showed plainly theéanxlety they felt. Young Rogers was the son of a brother captain in their regiment, who at that time was stationed in an eastern city on recruiting service. . : The young man had enlisted six months previously with the object of obtaining an officer's commission, which may be won by a worthy and capable man. = / The young fellow had gained the esteem and respect of everyone by his manly qualities and strict obedience to ofders. Many of the oﬂcenhg wn' himi from his childhood. He m en the ﬂhgmm of tbmnhm dren and a Mmﬂ _with all. Late Kl Bt to persuade him

®Take the post if it falls to your lot, but don’t volunteer,” they pleaded. It was no use. The young man had a theory, and if he proved it and discovered the assassin he knew that he would get his coveted commission. He was excused from all duties during the day, and after nightfall assumed charge of the dreaded post No. 8. Three nights passed without any event. The moon, though on the wane, was still bright enough to allow Rogers to see any moving object on the plain. | Seated on the ground, his back against the corral, his rifle on his knees, he was apparently asleep. Apparently only, for his sharp eyes keenly watched every point of the plain. He knew that he had a tricky, shrewd, but at the same time bold, enemy in that wily Apache. He felt sure that the Indian, especially in the second case, had not crept upon his victim unobserved. He inust have employed some disguise which had completely deceived the sentinel. MWhat was this disguise? j 4 “That Apache would /be more apt to betray himselfif he thonght me asleep than he would if he saw I was watching him,” was his sound argument. "Through the long hours of the night he sat motionless. It was two o’clock when suddenly he caught sight of a moving object on the plain some dise tance away. Noiselessly he cocked his rifle. He was a dead shot, and woe be to that object when he fired. Nearer and nearer it came while he sat as if asleep. ‘ | _“Why, it is Corporal!” he suddenly exclaimed. ‘

Corporal was a fine, large lewfoundland dog, a pet of the garrison, which had mysteriously disappeared from the post two weeks before and which everyone supposed to have been stolen. Rogers’ first impulse was to call the dog, when he remembered his resolution—*‘shoot any moving object that comes within range.”” He thereforerestrained his impulse, aﬁd no one would have guessed that ‘the apparently sleeping sentinel was| closely watching every movement as the dog approached. | It was a lucky idea of Rogers’ to feign sleep, for as the dog came nearer he thought he noticed: something

The dog -was mnow within range, and he could hesitate no longer, “It's a matter of lifel and death,” he reflected, ‘‘and if I n#ake a mistake everyoi:e, even Corporal himself, will forgive me.” | . o

Slowly and imperceptibly he brought his rifle to his shoulder, a short but true aim, a crack anda yell—such as only an Apache who hms received his death wound can give—startled the whole garrison. |

As if by magic everyone collected on the spot, each as he c;p,proached evidently expecting to se? a repetition of the. tragedies. |

The story was soon told. The skin of poor Corporal had bee}jﬁ used as a disguise by the Apache, who, with a bow in hand, had been creeping up on his third intended victim, Deceived by the apparently sleeping sentinel he had been led to betray himself and had met a most merited death. Undoubtedly he had by the same device deceived the other sentinels and had very mnearly. succeeded in adding another scalp. l ,Young Rogers was overwhelmed with congratulations, a special report was at once made to the war department, and before long he received asa reward his mucli-coveted commission. —Chicago Times. . | :

— BOUND TO SAVE HiM. A Dog That Was Fuuj Up to the ;Requirements of His Business. f Exceptions prove the rule, and the wrong counclusion which a dog may reach from wrong premises may be the best proof that he poss%esses reasoning power. The following story, says the Youth’s Companion, shi;ws plainly that the dog in the case lacked information, but not the faculty of reasoning: When the Gloucester lifeboat was launched in 1867 it was deemed necessary for two men to throw themselves into the sea in order toT‘ show the great utility of cork jackets in keeping the upper part of their qu}es above water, Among the thousands of spectators who were watching the men floating about was a Newfoundland dog, who became much excited at what he, no doubt, considered the seriogs condition of the men. _ The dog ran hither and thither, barking furiously, and in his best and most emphatic language trying his very best to prevail upen some'one in that large multitude of human beings to go to the men'’s assistance. o ; i ' Finding no one to go, splash into the wuter went the dog and swam directly to the men, one of whom he caught by the sleeve, with the intention of help~ ing him out of danger. | v A struggle ensued; the man tried to shake the dog off, but it was of no avail. The dog wdéuld not give up his hold, and finally two men in a small boat were obliged to go te the rescue. On Even Ternms. - A self-important little country gentleman entered Baron Haussmann’s office in Paris one day, having some complaint to make, and proceeded to state his errand in a pretty lofty tone, ‘and without taking off his hat. The “Wait a moment,” he said, and he rang abell. A servant answered the sumW’f‘wg:e ‘my hat,” }m ‘w@ ﬁwmﬁ‘ urned to s caller. B BRI AR e B e Y S N RN T e el SRR

FARM AND GARDEN. - FOR ROAD AGITATQ_RS. ; Buggestions Which May Prove of Value to 3 Many “‘Cranks.” The worse the condition of the highway, the easier it will be to awaken interest, and probably the greater will be the material support. The natural steps to be taken at any, time and in any place are probably four in getting at it. : First, to awaken interest. - Second, to énlist support. : Third, to organize effort, and Fourth, to direct procedure. ] In awakening interest it is first necessary that the agitator be more or less familia® with the history of road building, of improved roads, and the advantages aceruing by reason of good roads both in a social and a pecuniary way. The acquirement of a sufficient knowledge of these matters to be interesting will not require any very extended study or preparation, and even though the information may be exceedingly perfunctory, yet the prospect of advantages of any kind will excite. suffi¢gient curiosity to lead to an indelligent investigation of the-matter. - Literature ¢an be secured that will materially aid in the investigation. Engineers’ estimates of cost of construction, of the different classes of

improvement, of the advantages of one kind of road over another in the cost of moving loads over them, marketing produce, periodicals ‘devoted to such enterprise, consular reports.. statistics, ete., ete.- | e ;

Beside the personal work to be done, the local papers should be used. Every issue should mention the subject in some way or other that will not fail to arrest the attention of its readers and, if possible,.to provoke discussion. When interest has been awakened, even though the citizens do not rise up in a mass and. demand the improvements, as they probably will not do, for the masses have to be handled as

well as educated on any new departure; the next thing is to enlist support. | . Care must be exercised to enlist, if possible, the most influential, and'a sufficient number, and have them so | much interested as to be pledged to the J improvements sought. - o ~ Men are much like sheep when anew | opening or departure presents itself;! all hesitate until two or three make a start, then all are likely to follow | speedily, | {

Over the names of a few such leaders thus enlisted, if practicable, call a meeting of the citizens for the purpose of considering the matter of improvements. [ - ;

At the meeting the disadvantages, inconveniences and discomforts of the present condition ought to be fully rehearsed and, if possible, every one attending should be induced to add his complaint to the general protest. Men are always ready to complain and in this matter, contrary to all rule, they should be given every opportunity and encouragement, for they thus predicate themselves to the right side of the question. ‘ The next step may now be taken and an organized effort made. The very first meeting may and should be permanently organized; a chairman and secretary and committees chosen, resoTutions of disapprobation and, if necessary, reprobation of the present condition of things passed; petitions or communications to the necessary author: ities prepared and forwarded, or de%:gations sent. - _ i If the first meeting be too soon to do all this successfully, the meeting should be adjourned from time to time until the sentiment will support the desired action. ; ;

Now comes the last and most important step, and, withal, the most difficult of exact description, in the promotion of the enterprise. The direction of procedure is that rounding up of sentiment, support and effort which will erystallize into a favorable decision of the proper authorities, and the balance will be the detail of legislation and the preparation of plans to consummate the work, and is beyond the question, or is rather the fruition of the effortof ‘“‘how to get at it.” . £ It will require wisdom to consummate this last step, for, while it may be easy to excite interest and expectation, to enlist supportor even to organize effort, yet all this will fall short of reaching the desired end unless due care is had' to the proper understanding of the feasibility of the project. The natural advantages must be taken into account and made the most of. The raising of funds must be so shaped as to be least burdensome to-the people by whom paid, and the proper distribution of the improvements pointed out, and all this must be inaid of the proper authorities. L .

It cannot be successfully foretold just what course should be pursued in all cases, for the situations both: as to enactment and the extént and nature of the improvement projected differ in county or town, and in different sections of country and different sized: towns. | 3 These are in general the steps to be taken in ‘‘getting at it,” but the most important thing is to begin. Begin at once, and keep at it; earn the name of 8 ‘‘crank on roads,” if necessary, but never let up; follow it tirelessly, constantly. : s The theme is so rational that it must win in the end, and then comes the reward.—C. D. Chamberlain, in Good Roads. | | A Western Legislator’s Opinion. 5 ‘ ~ J. J. Baston, member from the Thir-ty-fourth distriet; Hennepin county, thinks that the legislature this winter should do somiething to stop the ery which organized labor in the 'state is making against convict labor.. Mr. Baston isethe only country member of ‘the Hennepin delegation, and naturally is interested in good roads. It is his idea that the conyicts should be called in from the weork which they are now doing for shoemakers and } others and put to work pounding rock for the roads of the state. Such a | course would. interfere with no class ’ of labor and would soon make a great improvement in the roads of the state.’ " —Minneapolis Journal. ’ g : - “What Good Roads Mean. ~ Bieycling undoubtedly is doing more toward the construction of good roads in this country than all other influences ecombined.

CHEAP GREENHOUSE. Just the Thing for Raising a Small Quan- ‘ tity of Plants, ' A correspondent asks: ‘I want to build a small greenhouse or hothouse for the purpose of raising tomato plants, say from 10,000 to 15,000. . Can you give information how to build one to be heated by fine?” | . In order to grow from 10,000 to 15,000 tomato plants for spring planting it will require, where they are 3 inches apart, a house 10x150 feet. If grown in 3-inch pots, allowing room for the plants to spread, the house will have to be 19x300 feet, or two houses 19x150 feet. The former house would have two beds 3 feet 6 inches wide, running the entire length, allowing 2 feet for the walk. The 19-foot houses can be divided as follows: The twooutside beds, each 2 feet 6 inches wide, and the center beds, each 4 feet wide. This leaves : =] o | ' ““\«. P i : e . — E PR O T Rt 8 ’ . e SECTION OF GREENHOUSE. B feet for the three walks, which can be divided to suit the grower.” Herewith is shown a section of a greenhouse 10 feet wide, 4 feet high on the sides, 2 feet 6 inches of which is of wood, and the balance is glass up to the plate, which is of wood. It is better to have the upper part of the sides of glass, because the plants will do better than where they are of wood. The height to the ridge is 7 feet. : There is' no need for heavy rafters, but the roof can be made of strong sash bars and joined together at the ridge, by pieces of wood, made to fit the angle of the roof, and to be securely screwed to the rafters or sash-bars to prevent any sag to the roof or castiron angle brackets made for the purpose can be purchased. - 1t is not nécessary to put them on every sash-bar if there are no rafters, but put the pieces about 6 feet apart. o

The ventilating sash are fastened to the ridge, and are best operated by means of the ordinary ventilating machinery, which can be bought for a small figure. If preferred ventilation can be supplied to both sides of the ridge. ] : : Regarding the flues. It is customary to build a furnace at each end.of the house, one under each bed, and to make the flues of cement tile, carrying them to the farther ends of the house, where they are connected to chimneys rising above the top of the greenhouse. Care must be taken ta have all the joints tight, as the gas from them is bad for the plants. . : It is better to pay a little more and put in either a hot water or steam heating apparatus, which can be relied upon. - : -

Next nail two standards to the flanges for the seat and screw the seat securely.—W. G. Mar, in Farm and Home. . _ABOUT BUTTER-MAKING. Some of the Difficulties Which Boset the " . Path of Success. i

~ One of the troubles which butter- - making encounters is the foaming of r;the cream in the churn and the conse. quent difficulty in making butter of it. This trouble is caused by the exgess of lactic acid in the eream, which is excessively sour: 'Fhis sourness is sometimes produced by the impure water which the cows have drunk: | Mottled butter is another source of annoyance. The cause is generally the use of the wrong temperatures in separating and churning which have so altered the consistency of the butter as to interfere with the even distribution of salt. A difference of 10 degrees between the ripening and churning temperatures will generally prevent ‘mottling. e a

' When butter comes very hard a little investigation usually shows that the cows are strippers—that is, they ‘have been six months or more in milk, Strippers’ milk should be heated to about 115 degrees before :setting and ‘afterwards churned at a temperature ~of 68 degrees, that is about 10 degrees higher than usual. Milk from cows fed much cottonseed meal requires to be situilarly treated.—N.- Y. World,
