The smile that crossed Heinrich's lips was cruel. "We will swing together, von Mueller," he said.

Tell us at once who you are." "Charles Miller Trent," was the calm reply. "Then why" Kathleen sprang to her feet "why were you masquerading as Karl von Mueller when I knew you in Germany?" "I beg your pardon, you did not know me in Germany." Kathleen crimsoned at the direct contradiction. "But you did know my cousin, Karl von Mueller."

This spot was distant about ninety miles from Fort Mueller, in a straight line. The day was cool and breezy.

"We've got to stay right here and take all the taunts that come along." "Nobody shall taunt me," cried Jackson. "If they try it I'll punch somebody's nose." "And to think we lost our money, too," said Ben Hurdy, after a pause. "That's what makes me sick." "Reckon you didn't lose much," said Lew Flapp, with a sickly grin.

"Well, what's the plan? Don't keep us in 'suspenders, as Hans Mueller would say."

It was rough sport, not to be approved, but "boys will be boys," and it is practically impossible to stop hazing even in the highest of our institutions of learning.
