ried back, she had wandered into the flower
market where she came upon us, already
described.
AS she explained to Harry afterward, she
was intent only upon escape, and believed
this to be her last chance. When she saw n
half-dozen young Americans. who seemed
perfectly respectable, the idea that positive
safety lay only in marriage dawned upon
her, and she actually ran toward us, as we
have related, the moment the thought de-
velOped itself.
Harry became more and more impressed
with jules story as they walked along,
while he was delighted by her innocent
beauty and manifest refinement. 1t was all
like a dream, almost too romantic for truth.
Our fate" sometimes comes to us in this
singular fashion, he thought. There is a
tide in the affairs of men which, taken at
the flood, leads on to fortune" Suddenly
he turned to her and said:
Dare you trust me with your happiness?"
She looked at him thoughtfully with her
soft, pleading eyes. Her brain was very
busy; she remembered what awaited her at
home, what had driven her thence and
then, in reply TO his sober question, she put
both of her hands into his with childlike
trust.
They wandered on. Julie had always
plenty of money in her purse, and they
strofed iato a little chapel on their way,
where they found young clergyman, who

them, backed by ten golden napoleons, and
so, though reluctantly and advising proper
delay, he performed the marriage ceremony,
aided by the sexton and his wife, who each
received a napoleon.
AS an inducement, Harry had also told the
clergyman that he was just going TO sea.
and that he must be married before lie
sailed, that not even an hour was to he lost
" Perhaps | am saving the girls honor"
said the young clergy man, as he finally coz
scented.
Julie came ont of the chapel the wife of
Harry B, who went withs her to the Hotel
du Louvre. From here lie sent a pressing
note to the American Consul, who came to
him early the next morning, ana by the
earnest persuasion of Harry the consul
agreed to take the young wife to his own
house until matters should be settled as it
regarded their future course. In the cOnsuPS
house Julie found pleasant and safe re-
treat for the time being
Whatever might be said with regard to the
proprety OF the young folks conduct, il
could not be undone. They were lrrevo-
cabiy united as husband and wife. Harry
was forced, however, to resign his commits
sion. By tie aid OF the consul jules rights
in relation to her fortune under her fathers
will were fully realized, and she came almost

A SPARK FROM A PIPE
Nearly Blows Two Men Into Eternity :
Venice, Illinois.

Nearly Blows TWO Men Into Eternity at
Venice, Illinois.
A caboose standing on a side-track in the
Chicago and Alton Railroad yards at Venice,
Ill, took fire recently from a can of gas line
which exploded. The conductor, Lewis
Lowry of Bloomington, and c. j. Brock
miller Of Carlinville, the brakeman, were in
the bunk-room Of the caboose, cleaning the
bed with gasoline, the vapors of which be-
came ignited from the sparks of pipe which
one of the men was smoking, causing the
can to explode with loud report and setting
fire to the caboose. The doors of the caboose
being fastened they had no chance TO escape.
The force OF the explosion threw Brockmil-
Ter out Of small window and abouttwenty
feet from the car in a terribly mangled con-
dition. The door was finally forced open
ana Lowry rescued.
Both men were horribly burned about the
head. face and hands, and the agony they
endured was almost Unbearable. Brock
miller was the worst injured. being cut by
the glass of the window, besides being
burned. Drs. Youree and Young dressed
their wounds, and they were sent to their
homes. With proper care they will recover.

Presidio Gossip-Batttry Practice-To-

PresidIo Gossip-Batttry PrRctice-To-
Morrow's Review.
The Preside and It's surroundings pre-
sented a lonesome appearance yesterday, as
the soldier boys took advantage of their
weekly holiday to come into town and the
citizen element was deferred from visiting
the post TN account OF the evident approach
of a ralnstorm. The gentlemen of brass
buttons who happened to be around have
not yet got over their inconsistencies, and
while the artillery still regret their parting
from New York friends, the cavalry, strange
as 1t may seem, sigh for the sandy plains of
Arizona and New Mexico. The moist bfeazes
of the Golden Gate are to blame for much of
the lingering trouble, as there are but few
of the men who are not sufferers from colds
and kindred ailments.
Battery practice with the heavy guns and
mortars has been going on all of the week
with most gratifying results. So far each
of the four batteries stationed here has
fired twelve shots. anu the targets have been
repeatedly demolished. This has been the
case repeatedly when the mortars have been
fired, as shells falling within twenty five
feet of the target work Its complete destruc-
lion. The artillery practice begins at 8
O'Clock each morning, and is very interest
ing sight.
The cavalry have mounted drills every
morning from 9:45 to II 10 o'clock, but ar
tillery drills have been abandoned since
battery practice began.
Tomorrow mnrning at 8 o'clock the regu-
lar monthly muster and inspection of the
garrison viii be held, aud the interesting
ceremony OF review will take place in
which the artillery, light artillery and cav
airy Will participate. Lieutenant Colonel
Graham will be the reviewing officer.
