Brant of the Seventh Cavalry.” “The two, thus introduced, bowed, and exchanged a few words, while Mr. Wynkoop busied himself in peer- ing about the room, making a great pretense at searching out Miss Spen- cer, who, in very truth, had scarce- been absent from his sight during entire evening. ‘ “AhI’ he ejaculated, “at last I lo. cate her, and, fortunately, at this moment she is not upon the floor, al- | though positively, hidden by the men clustering about her chair.

I was juat saying to Mr. Moffat—or it might have been Mr. McNeil—that I was completely tired out and wished you were here to sit out this dance with me.” Wynkoop blushed and forgot the errand which had brought him there, but she remained sufficiently cool and observant. She touched bim gently with her hand. “Who is that fine-looking young officer?” she questioned softly, yet yithout venturing to remove her glance from his face. Mr. Wynkoop started. “Oh, exact- ly; I had forgotten my mission, He has requested an introduction.” He drew the lieutenant forward. “Lieu- tenant Brant, Miss Spencer.” "The officer bowed, a slight shadow of disappointment in hi yes.
