Thus might one who had passed through the Valley of Despair commune with another who could not hope to escape from its evil slough. But his words met with a strange response. The stricken body seemed to collapse altogether. The pallid features shrank away from the vivid glare of the lamp. When he and Spot, with Furneaux close on their heels, reached Connington's side it was difficult to say offhand that the man vet lived. His eyes were closed, his face waxen. and In the moisture: laden air surrounding the cascade no breathing was perceptible Ferguson, the farmer, 1ook it for granted that he was in the presence of death. “Eh, sirs,” he muttered, “but it's a dreadful thing to be hunted into eter- nity wi' murrdher on yer soul!” Furneanx, however, though so phys- ically_exhausted that _he wanted to Connington.” he said, s close at hand.

Fie thought he could detect a feeble pulse, and had seen already that Con- nington's right leg was broken, nor did he fail to note the remarkable fact that a boat hook had evidently drop- ped from the fugitive's hand when he fell, hecause it lay athwart a rock at a little distance. “I think he has only fainted,” he said quletly. “It is better so0. You two can carry him up to the smoother ground while | show a light. Then we can give him some brandy and put him in the stretcher after doing our hest to make that smashed leg more comfortable. That is the only possible course. He may never revive in this saturated atmosphere.” John and the sturdy sheep farmer made light of their part of the under- taking. Soon the whole company had gathered on the hill side, and Conning- ton was placed on a couch of heather while Betty showed herself a thoroughly competent hospital nurse by her skilled manipulation of the broken limb. She ripped open trouser leg and underclothing, used her own strong hands with the aid of a police- man who understood first aid to pull the hones into position, and applied and bound tightly the cotton wool and set of splints which were attached to |the stretcher. She had just made an |end when the injured man groaned heavily, and regained his senses. He gulped ‘at the brandy, which seemed to revive him instantaneousiy “The dog.” he gasped feebly Is there? If vou have a heart that dog aw: “I am quite sure the dog never | touched you, Connington," said John. Not for one second would he allow the impression to get abroad that Spot | had pulled down his guarry. “Who said he did?’ came the querulous reply. “But his curbed eves followed me through the night, and I could not shake him off by day. 1 never saw him then, but 1 knew he was there. so I laid in wait, and tried 1o kil him. but he bested me, and I fell.” “What do John sternly. over?" “Who keep vou mean?’ demanded “Did he knock you “No. curse him. He dodged. and 1 slipped. He was just playing with me all the time. But what does it matter? My number's up. Is that skunk. Panton, really dead?" “Unfortunately for both him and you, my cousin, Alistair Panton, died almost at once. HE DODGED, AND I SLIPPED.” “I'm not mixing up one Panton with the other.

We plaved a dirty trick on vou. and have got what was coming to us. Of course, 1 wasn't trying to kill that precious cousin of yours. He tried to bluff me, but he was dealing with the wrong man. Got any more of that brandy? Let me have it. It's my farewell drink. I've been lying in that gully for hours—ever since sun- set—and I'm chilled right through. Before I pass out you may as well know that 1 doped vou that morning in France. Tt wasn't my scheme. I | had no grudge against vou. But Maj.

He was too damned foxy to say outright that if you went west at the first op- portunity 1'd be let off. but he hinted it know what he meant all right. But the scheme came unstuck. 1 only tried to make you dotty—then Fri would do the rest.

Then Betty took charge. “No more for you until vour wet clothes are removed. and we can get you to sip some hot milk.” she an- nounced firmly. ‘“Cheer up! You're not half so ill as you imagine. I think_that leg of yours is not a com- pound fracture, 80 it may not require resetting. And stop talking! You've sald enough already! Come along, you men, with the stretcher. Slide it under gently. Two lift his body below the waist, one at his feet, I'll manage his head and shoulders. So! That's capital. Now carry him down. Halt at the bad places and form a double line, passing the stretcher from one set of hands to the next.” The Hon. Betty had not asserted her authority a moment too soqn. Connington sank into a state of coma, from which he did not recover until long after Dr. Stevenson had come from Mallaig and examined him in a bedroom at Ferguson’s farm. whither he was conveyed. Moreover, she was not unaware that Sheldon, dropping to his knees behind Connington, had produced a note book and was taking down in shorthand every word that |was uttered.

At the ear- llest moment Ferguson went ahead to prepare his household and warn the the dogs that those enthusiasts should be kept under strict control until Spot was safely secluded in a car. (Copyright. 1826, by Louis Tracy.) (Continued tomorrow.) During Our REMOVAL SALE 907 G St. N.W Ope I Two new officers reported for duty at the office of the chief of the Militia Bureau the past week. They are Maj. Hugo D. Selton, Infantry, who has just graduated from the command and general staff school course at Fort Leavenworth, Kans.. and Capt. Henry Harmeling, J. A. G. D.. who has been on duty in the office of the judge advocate general of the Army. Capt. Harmeling will succeed Maj. W. A. Turnbull, J. A. G. D., as chief of the legal section in the bureau. who has been assigned to the next class of the Army War College. The first step by the War Depart ment towards effectively eliminating the deadwood from the Organized Re- serve was taken last week in the form of a letter which was sent to all corps area commanders outlining the things which will be given the closest scrutiny 'in future inspections. Past inspections of reserve headquarte which have more or less been har pered by a scarcity of funds, have not been complete by any manner of means, this being due in part. it is pointed out, to the newness of the} reserve project, and in part to the| uncertainty as to just what should be expected from these headquarters Among the matters which will be given prior consideration by future inspectors of reserve headquarters, the following are the most important: Réserve personnel. niobilization plans. correspondence courses, conference courses, and appointments, promo- tions and separations. Under reserve personnel. consider- ahle attention will be paid to the num- ber of reserve officers that are a signed to units which includes those attached and those attached for train |are held, the average attendance and | 1o whdt extent these courses are par ! the Citize: |kind of an examination is given | the students at the end of the courses. | Appointments, promotions and sep- | | | arations. probably the most important Curse the shivering cold | men who had remained behind with | ing. The inspecting officer will make a close examination as to the number of reservists that are evincing interest in their reserve commissions to the extent of doing training work on an inactive status. The number of offi- cers given active duty training during the past vear and the number of units that have been trained will also be considered by the future inspecting officers. Mobilization plans. a matter of vita) interest to the reserves, will also be given careful attention. The inspect- ing officers will note particularly if these plans are up to date, the extent to which these pians have been pre- pared by the reserve unit commanders and the extent to which the various individual reserve officers are familiar with the plans. The correspondence courses are in- tertwined to a certain extent with the reserve personnel, and if the resery- ists are showing any interest in their commissions, their training work on an inactive status will include corre- spondence course work. The corre- spondence course phase of the in- spections will be watched closely, par- ticular attention being paid to the number of students enrolled, the per- centage turning in completed work. the method of grading papers and the method of recording the work done Under conference courses, an exam- ination will ba made by the inspecting officers as to the number of such courses given each month. where these ticipated in by recent graduates of the Reserve Officers’ Training Corps and Military Training Camps, Inquiry will also he made as to what [ things affecting reserve officers. will come in for a particularly and inspection by the inspectors, who will examine the number of new ap pointments and the sources from which such appointments come. The number of reserve officers applying for a certificate of capacity and the numbeg issued such certificates will be taken into consideration. Examina- tion will also be made as to the num- ber and character of the promotions made. as well as to the number dis- charged from their commissions or re. lieved of assignment and the reasons therefor. These are the n points which will be watched in the future inspec- tions of the headquarters of the Or. ganized Reserve structure. The be- lief is held in the War Department that this will be the most effective method yet devised which will elimi nate the deadwood from the reserve. It will not only accomplish this. it is insisted in the department, but it will stimulate the development of the Or- ganized Reserve and place it on a sound business and military founda- tion | ington and vicinity filed their appli- | cations last week 10 attend the citi- {zens’ military training eamps which will begin at the various camps. de pending upon the branch of the serv {ice, for a period of 30 days on July 5.
