He was sitting up in bed now, wide awake, obsessed with a desire to investi- gate. The reference overheard must have been to Hawley, and if so, this Willoughby, who was afraid of meet ing soldiers from the fort, would be the deserter Miss Home was seeking. There oouLd be no harm in making sure, and he slipped into his clothes, and as silently as possible, unlatched his door. There was a noisy crowd at the farther end of the hall, and the sound of some one laboriously mount- ing the stairs. Not desiring to be seen, Keith slipped swiftly toward the door of the other room, and tiled the latch. It was unfastened, and he stépped quietly within, closing it be; hind him. A small lamp was on the washstand, a halfâ€"emptied bottle and two glasses beside it, while a pack of cards lay scattered on the floor.

So long.” “Not me; this town is too near Fort Hays; I’m liable to run into some of the fellows." A chair scraped across the floor as Bill arose to his feet; evidently from the noise he had been drinking, but Keith heard him lift the latch of the door. “Oh, we might find Bart somewhere, and he’d stake us. I guess I know enough to make him loosen up. Come on; I’m goin’. ” “Hell, B111, what’s the use goin’ out again when we haven’t the price?" Out from all this Dandemonium Keith began to unconsciously detect the sound of voices talking in the room to his left. In the lull of ob- structing sound a few words reached him through the slight open space be- tween wall and ceiling. Wearied, and half dead, as Keith was, sleep was simply impossible. He heard heavy feet tramping up and down the hall; once a drunken man endeavored vainly to open his door; not far away there was a scufiie, and the sound of a body falling down stairs. In some distant apartment a fellow was struggling to draw off his tight boots, skipping about on one foot amid much profanity. That the boot conquered was evident when the man crawled into the creaking bed, an- nouncing defiantly, “If the landlord wants them boots off, let. him come an’ pull ’em off.” Across the hall was a rattle of chips. and the voices of several men, occasionally raised in anger. Now and then they would stamp on the floor as an order for liquid refreshments from below. From somewhere beyond. the long-drawn melancholy howl of a distressed dog greeted the rising moon. xcevt for from wall to wall. The thin parti- tions often failed to reach the ceiling by a foot or two, and the slightest noise aroused the entire floor. And there was noise of every conceivable kind, in plenty, from the blare of a band at the Pioneer Dance Hall oppo- site, to the energetic cursing of the cook in the rear. A discordant. din of voices surged up from the street belowâ€"laughter, shouts, the shrieks or women, a rattle of dice, an occasional pistol shot, and the continuous yell- ing of industrious “barkers.” There was no safety anywhere. An exploding revolver in No. 47 was quite likely to disturb the peaceful slumbers of the innocent occupant of No. 15, and every sound of quarrel in the thronged bar- room below caused the lodger to curl up in momentary expectation of a stray bullet coursing toward him through the floor. With this to trou- ble him, he could lie there and hear everything that occurred within and without. Every creak, stamp, and snore was faithfully reported; every curse, blow, snarl re-echoed to his ears. inside was hell; outside was Sheridan. Keith had enjoyed considerable ex- perience in frontier hotels, but noth- ing before had ever quite equalled this. the pride of Sheridan. The product of a mushroom town, which merely ex- isted by grace of the temporary rail- way terminus, it had been hastily and fiimsily constructed, so it could be. transported efs'ewhere at a moment’s notice. Every creak of a bed echoed “’Couldnt think of it, Keith," and the doctor got up. “Besides, you Sleep at night, don’t you?" “Ushally. yes,” the other admitted. “Then you won’t bother me anyâ€"- no doctor sleeps at night in Sheridan; that’s our harvest time. Come on, and I’ll show you the way. When morning comes I'll rout you out and take my turn.” “I reckon Eon won’t discover such a thing here,” dryly. “Got seven in a room upstairs, and others corded along the hall.

The aeroplane wedding solves the problem of the getaway. When the happy couple depart in an airship, their loving friends cannot scare the horses into run- ning away and breaking the bride’s neck. Nor is it possible for them to throw high enough to blacken the bridegroom’s eyes with old shoes. The newly-wedded pair, are, in fact, in a position to bombard the wedding guests if they so de- sire.
