But they found that by tearing away

A BROKEN MATCH.
The Unhappy Ending Of n Fourth OF July
Pleasure Trip.

Pleasure Trip.
Mr.. Chauncy Chiclxweed, the ac-
lnowledged leader of the beaux of his
town, and Miss Millie Melton, a young
and charming creature, had become en-
gagged to be married, and the youngpeo-
pie Of the place were all agog over the
affair. 1t was a well-known fact that
the couple had been keeping company,
but it was not until about week be-
fore the Fourth of July that their en-
gagement became known.
On the Fourth there was to be an ex-
cursion in carriages TO a neighboring
town, where there was TO be fireworks
and festivity. Most of the young peo-
pie were going, and conveyances were
in great demand
Chauncy had been unfortunate in his
! selection of a horse. Being timorous
and unacquainted with horses he had

Alas, it was too true. Even as the

Glorious news from AtlantaI

Glorious news from Atlantal
Sherman and Johnston had been fig o.
ing tooth and nail over hundred miles
of mountains and woods; and the words
Dalton, Resaca, Dallas and Lost and
Kenesaw mountains had been written
in letters of blood on the page of his
tory.
Johnston had retired behind the in
trenchments of Atlanta, when Davis,
dissatisfied with his Fabian policy, had
deposed him, and put Hood in his place.
Sherman advanced on the Georgian
city, when Hood attacked the Union
army three times with tremendous
energy, but was repulsed with great
slaughter. Sherman thereupon re-en-
acted his favorite flank movement filed
his wagons with fifteen days rations,
dexterously shifted his whole army
on his opponents line of supplies, and
compelled the evacuation of the city.
But the victory was dearly bought; for
Sherman's Lieutenant, the gallant Nc
Pherson who, with the brave Logan,
had chiefly sustained the front of the
battle, was killed in action.

through the Atlantic States, but Hoods
army, though driven away, was hover

was brought to the Federal camp, that
the Southern General was setting out to
invade Tennessee.
''If Hood win only go there" Sher-
man declared, II will give him rations
for the journey"
And Hood went; and Sherman started
on that grandly picturesque expedition,
''The March to the Sea-"
Hood moved rapidly devastating the
country he passed through; and critics al
old gentleman thousand miles away,
reading their morning papers, growled
over Thomas delay, and declared, that
if they were in command of the Federal

very different plan; and their convic-
tions were sustained, when news came
that the "Rocll of Chickamauga" was

HE WAS A SORRY s1Gur,

with bcaming smile in which was q
mixture of amusement and annoyance.
Chauncy assisted her to a seat be-
side him and started old Dobbin down
the road in a sort of lettering amble
toward the rendezvous of the party,
several squares distant.
Arriving at the appointed place
Chauncy and his lady were greeted with
much hilarity on account of their an
cient and attenuated roadster.
The company having all assembled
they formed into line, with Chauncy in
the rear, and started for the scene Of
revelry.
AS they passed along the streets Of
the town a throng Of people watched
them, and the uproarious urchin with
his pockets bulging with combustibles
shouted at them as he hurled his mis-
siles of destruction in every direction
Hardly had the procession got under
way ere a catastrophe occurred which
blasted the hopes of two fond young
hearts and turned the peaceful scene
into one of widest commotion: A large
torpedo thrown by an impish youngster
landed on old Dobbin's flank with a
loud report. He sprang erect for mo-
ment and then dashed forward with a
snort Of terror.
The first plunge brought him TO the
edge of deep ditch more than half full
of stagnant water upon which was a
thick green scum. As the wheels of
the buggy neared the edge Chauncy,
with wild yell and without looking
where he was leaping, flung himself
into the midst of the foul pool With a
great splash he disappeared in the
malodorous ditch from which he dragged
himself in woeful plight. His light
trousers and Immaculate linen were
ruined. and he was a sorry sight as he
stood ana watched ola DOODln tearing
down the road with Millie clinging deg
perately to the lines and hundred peo-
pie in hot pursuit.
The old horse made good heat of II,
but soon brought up against fence with
Millie still tugging at the lines. She
was helped into a friends carriage with
whom she remained the whole day
through without so much as inquiring
after her cowardly lover.
The young people laughed and danced,
the orators bawled and shouted them
selves hoarse, the flags and banners
huttered in the breeze and at night the
rockets hissed and flew into the air, the
wheels and candles merrily whizzed and
popped, but Chauncy was not there TO
enjoy them. He was at home bemoan-
ing his sad fate and endeavoring TO
renovate his damaged apparel
When he called on Miss Mile the next
evening she gave him his release. She
said that she could not wed a man who
would desert her in time Of danger.
Chaunoy was overcome with sorrow
OF his summary dismissal, but humbly
acknowledged the justice of it, and as
| he bade her farewell he declared with
some spirit that he would never go rid
ing again on the Fourth of July.
