The steamers Cover or Stafford and st.
Nicholas each carried down a large crowd
to Tybee roads yesterday afternoon to wit
ness the balloon ascension. The steamers
kept off and on the point buoy for several
hours waiting for the balloon to ascend.
Glasses were in constant requisition by
those Who had them and the beach was
carefully scanned for the balloon.
Gradually an o5jscs began to arise TO the
south of the Ocean hou ie which eventually
took the shape Of balloon.
The excursionists gazed at it and
impatiently waited for it to mount
into the air The sun, however. was
nearly below the horizon when a
shout from thoss who were closely
watching the distant beach announced
that the balloon was ascending. 1t went
up quite gracefully, apparently above the
Ocean house, and just as every one
was prepated to follow it, with their eyes,
to a higher altitude, it began descending,
and as tue 8roualt was near the ground,
some hundred yards northeast of the hotel,
the balloon turned upside down, and
streams of black smoke issued from its
inverted neck, and almost obscured it from
the vie Of those on the boats.

pointed. but they conslled themselves with
the reflection that they had very pleasant
trip to salt water on a very lovely after
nOon. Ga their homeward trip the Gov.

tuck trip from TyDee to the CITY. They
didn't race, because that is against the law,

with q stubby beard that pointed ob.

The old hounds slumber was broken
by the arrival of the candidates for the
nuptial honors. He did not even
growl at them. Like his master, such
episodes failed to stir the depths of his
surprise or resentment. He had long
been accustomed to accepting such ar
rivals as matter of course. He now
stretched himself, and stepped forth
with all the canine dignity which the
occasion seemed to warrant, and eau
tiously smelled of horses and riders.
This act of courtesy on his part accom-
plished, he walked back to the door of
the cabin, stationed himself by the
Justices side, and intelligently seemed
to await the consummation of the holy
rites.
The Justice eyed for a minute the
wet sides of the animals, which fully
corroborated the fellows assertion that
they had swum the Kaw to get there.

How Bridal Couples Act.

Hardly week goes by" said rail
way porter, "that don't see bridal
couple just starting on their honey
moon. I don't know how I can tell
them, but they are as plainly marked
to my eyes as if they had the words
bride and bridegroom stamped in
big letters on their foreheads. There
is a something about them that gives
the whole situation AWAY kind Of
cling-next-to-me-darling air. Ofcourse
I have made a mistake now and then,
but it is very seldom I do, and I have
often found out, after changing my
mind two or three times, that I was
right after all, though certain appear
ances we're against it. We have one
test which never fails, and when a
doubtful party comes we try it on them
Just to be sure, you know"
whats the test?
"Well, I'll tell you. Not many weeks
ago . couple got into a carriage and
sat down quietly, as if they had been
used to it all their lives. They didn't
seem to have the bride and bridegroom
air about them at all, and from exter-
nal appearances they might have been
brother and sister, or married for years
but still there was something there
that made me suspicious, SO when 1
saw them together I went to the news
boy, and says:
Bill, here's q double party; get
out the sample copies
$50 Bill got his tests and walked up
to the door of the carriage. He offered
books or newspapers to everybody, and
when he came to the suspected party
he took out of his pile two little books
and said, so that nearly everybod!
could hear him:
"'Very useful books, sir; hints on
housekeeping and hints to newly mar
ried people,
sThat did it. The girl got as red as
q rose, and the man blushed, and said
q weak sort of 'N-n-no.' Then they
looked at each other. and sort of snig-
gered, and caught him full in the eye
and smiled sweet smile, giving him q
respectful wink at the same time. It
was all settled in minute; there was
no doubt about it. There are many
other ways by which I can spot q bride
and bridegroom, and they are gener-
ally as safe as the test. The custom
of throwing rice after bridal couple
makes it unpleasant for the party, as
q lot of rice is almost sure to stick to
their clothes, hats, or in their hair.
@Why do you take such pains to find
out whether they are newly married or
not"
@Oh, whey they see we tumble to it
we generally get good tip, just for
luck, you know"
