America. lie received little honor for some of bis efforts, however, notably In. the case recalled by Nicholas Smith in "Grant, the Man of Mystery." But perhaps the humor of It reconciled him. The riding master was one Uersbberger. "an amusing sort of tyrant. and on one occasion, whether seriously or as a joke, he determined to "take down" the young cadet At the exercise Grant was mounted on a powerful but vicious brute that the cadets fought shy of and was put at leaping the bur. The bar was placed higher and higher as he came round the ring till it passed the record. The stubborn rider would not say "enough," but the horse was disposed to sby and refuse to make the leap. Grant gritted his teeth and spurred at it. but just as the horse gathered for the spring his swelling body burst the girth, and the rider and saddle tumbled Into the rin ' Half stunned. Grant gathered himself up from the dust only to hear the "strident, cynical voice of Hersta berger calling out: "Cadet Grant, six demerits for dis-' mounting without leave His Other Name.

Along the high hedged lane John Strong swung, the June gloaming deepening Into night. He loved to shove hi face Into the night. He gloried in the uncertainty of night, the indeflnlteness of night and his soul cried back a' wild answer to the cry of the nlgbthawk and the owl. Night is more primitive than day: night 1h more calamitous: night Is a savage; night everywhere Is the true aborigine. Day lins taken on civilization. Night burls the world back to the day of the war club, the flint arrowhead, the painted visage. John Strong loved the- night with an almost malevolent love. . In the night be could bear the Valkyries screaming, the witches riding their broomsticks, the ghouls scraping the mold from off the new buried coffin: John Strong swung along, bis face set to meet oncomlug night.
