together Unique.
The ceremony among the Kabyles Is
interesting because Of It's comparative
resemblance 10 the customs Of the old
Greeks and Romans. and even TO those
which still prevail In sequestered parts
Of France. Here Is the girls father
who exacts n wedding portion. sum
Of about eight pounds, for which the
bridegroom has generally to rely upon
the advances Of his friends Often.
too, the young man has not a house for
his bride, in which case his friends set
10 work and build one-no very diff
cult matter.
On the wedding day the bride Is led
through the villages In the neighbor-
hood, mounted on a mule, and escorted
by friends and relations, who shout
and FIRE guns again and again. Tho
various householders hasten forth TO
offer her sieveful of beans. nuts, or
dried figs OF these she takes a hand
full, which she kisses and then replaces
In the sieve All the offerings are col
lected in sacks by the old women Of

At the bridegroom's house the girls
hands are washed with liquid butter
Then they give her some fresh eggs,
which she breaks on the mules head
and inside the unhappy animals ears,
thereby, II is believed, counteracting
any evil designs against her and her
husbands happiness. Before entering
the house she drinks milk. fresh and
sour, and also water. and scatters over
her shoulder handful Of barley. wheat
and salt for the good Of the family.
The husband then approaches her
and fires pistol above her head, "a
signify that thenceforward he has the
power OF life and death over her. Not
infrequently he makes the symbol even
more emphatic by firing into her head
dress and setting her a6ame. This
done, little remains except for the
youth to lift the lady in his arms and
carry her bodily into his house. All

A WILD CHARGE.
The Lono Soldier Dashed Through q Reg
iment Unscathed.

Some of the most amusing stories are
those which have serious side. An old
Confederate soldier the other day told n
story that is very laughablc in these days
of ncacc 1t was after John Morgan was
made general that o company was form
eli of some of his old squadron who had
Just returned from Camp Chase, where
for some time they had been imprisoned
The company had been formed by man
named Quirll, u reckless, daring fellow,
and IA stranger TO fear. The company went
by the name of Quirk S scouts.
At this time the company was down In
middle Tennessee and was skirmishing
around for fight, when they suddenly
came upon q regiment of Federal cavalry.
In II short time tho two boGitSUf soldiers
were standing face to face, and the bullets
were dying thick and fast through the air
The fight that followed was u desperate
one, and each side seemed determined to
stand it's ground. Suddenly, us tho fght
was az its hottest, horse was seen to dash
out CT the Confederate line and start in q
direct line for the Yankee regiment. On
the horses back was n man named Eng
lish, who was leaning back in his saddle
and pulling with all his might in Il futile
effort to stop his frightened horse. The
animal was yellow in color, and in run
ming took long and clumsy jumps. The
rider finally saw that he could not stop the
animal, and he made up his mind to make
the best of his situation. He leaned for
ward in his saddle until his head almost
touched his horses neck and his hands
claspcd the bride near the bit Even the
riders ears seemed pinned back so great
was his effort to make himself as small as
possible. His face was as pale as death,
On went tho animal toward the regiment,
turning neither to the right nor left, aud
closer and closer did the rider keep to the
animals body.
The Yankees saw tho horse with its rider
making straight for them, and they We're
seized with CONSERVATION. Some of tho
soldiers ceased firing and looked excitcdly
at the maddened animal flying toward
them. In u short while he reached the rcgi-
ment, but die not stop The Fcderals al
most fell upon each other in their efforts
to get away from the horses heels, and u
regular panic followed. The animal went
plunging through the center of the rcgi-
mcnt, foamiug at the mouth, and with
head down. The horse and rider dashed
on through the entire regiment, and the
Yankees kept making way for them all
down the entire line. Not shot was fired
until he had gotten out of range, and then
nearly half the regiment, who had man
aged to recover themselves from their as
constituent, fired at cloud of dust rising
in the air, but the horse and rider were at
a safe distance.
The horse made a complete circle, re
turning to the Confederate company in
safety. When the rebels saw their COM
rade had returned without a scratch from
such a dangerous ride, they almost forgot
the fight before them, and there went up "a

been fitted with the most improved appli-
ances and are first-cass in every particu
lar The sanitary appointments are espect-

of the improvements which reflect great
credit ON Alderman Church, who has de-
voted considerable of his time in looking
after the work, and to the contractors.
The total repairs on both houses will cost
about S2700, and evidently the money
could not have been better expended

of making the repairs at the Spring street
house The addition to this building Is

for AZ pupils. Miss Helen Larrabee is the
teacher in this new room. The whole
