That's a sort of tinpanning, jiggly stuff, isn't it?" "Glenn, it's the fever of the public pulse," replied Carley. "The graceful waltz, like the stately minuet, flourished back in the days when people rested rather than raced." "More's the pity," said Glenn. Then after a moment, in which his gaze returned to the fire, he inquired rather too casually, "Does Morrison still chase after you?"
He was just finishing when there came a knock at the door, and it was opened. "Mr. Grady?" said a young man, entering hurriedly. "Oh, hello, Glenn! One of the night clerks in the office, Kennedy," introduced the house detective. "I've just heard of the murder," Glenn began.
While he was occupying this position, it was discovered that he was the captain of an insurgent company, giving active assistance to the enemy, and he was, therefore, a traitor and a spy, and under the laws of war deserved to be shot; but instead they proposed to courtmartial Glenn for simply giving him the water cure; and this, in my opinion, is a great wrong.
"I am determined she shall not remain here," Bessie Glenn was saying. "I heartily indorse your opinion," said Gertie, slowly. And for once in her life the tongue of reckless Eve was silent. She looked thoughtfully out of the window. The first week of Daisy's stay at Glengrove passed quickly. She was beginning to feel quite at home with Mrs. Glenn and Eve, but Bessie and Gertie held aloof from her.
She knew he had meant the deep-walled canyon with its brooding solitude. "But I want you to love Arizona," he said. "Glenn, I'm a faithful creature. You should be glad of that. I love New York." "Very well, then. Arizona to New York," he said, lightly brushing her cheek with his lips.
If nature and evolution proved the absolute need of strife, war, blood, and death in the progress of animal and man toward perfection, then it would be better to abandon this Christless code and let the race of man die out. All through these weeks she longed for a letter from Glenn. But it did not come. Had he finally roused to the sweetness and worth and love of the western girl, Flo Hutter?
"Forward, men!" cried Captain Glenn, springing forward faster than before. Captain Jack and Jack Templeton also urged their men to redoubled efforts. Within the German lines, Jack saw men running forward. Apparently the German officers were trying to get their men in formation to ward off an attack. The enemy had no means of ascertaining the strength of the attacking party, attack was ordered.
There's something terribly wrong with us women, and it's not what Morrison hinted." "Carley, the only thing wrong with you is that you jilted poor Glenn and are breaking your heart over him still." "Don't don't!" cried Carley, shrinking. "God knows that is true. But there's more wrong with me than a blighted love affair." "Yes, you mean the modern feminine unrest?"
"Great God in heaven! this explains Harry Langdon's sudden coolness," she muttered, with a great, choking sob; "but if Dorothy Glenn attempts to take my lover from me let her beware! this earth will not be broad enough to hold the two of us. It will be war to the very death between us, and we shall see which one of us shall win him!"
"And you ran in that manner from an old moccasin!" said Glenn, reproachfully. "But there was a foot in it!" continued Joe. "A he man's foot?" inquired Sneak, quickly turning to Joe. "How could I tell whether it was a he man's foot, or a female woman's, as you call them?" replied Joe. "Are you sure it was a human being's foot?" demanded Glenn.
