SOLDIERS IN PANIC.
They Occurred on Several occa-
sions During Civil War.

'In western Virginia saw a company

pered the boys in the backs" says the
major, in the Chicago Inter Ocean
This was too much and for the first
time that day the men on the firing line
were scared. As they turned 10 Dol,
they saw the captain shaking his fist al

heard above the confusion the captain 5
voice in a swearing stunt that beat the
band. He didn't order his men back into
line. Their scare was over and they
went back without orders. shouting
compliments at the captain. who was
still in action
Al Stone river our regiment faced the
enemy for hours without sign OF a panic
but when one OF our brigsdes. changing

Ing as coolly as ever they did in the

ways more confusion and excitement in
the rear OF an army than in front, but
the excitement means as little as the
confusion. An army itself engaged In

what occurs al the rear: and yet the in
eidents In the rear are more often than
otherwise exploited as indicating condi-

A SIMPLE HOME WEDDING
No Undue Formslity, But Have All
Dainty and Fair as Wedding
Day Demands.

Do not try to be too formal about
the wedding breakfast. Endeavor 10
preserve simplicity and informally in
every detail. White is best for the
decorations. especially II the day is
warm. as nothing gives a greater sense
OF GOODNESS. A beautiful effect may be
accomplished in the dining-room by
removing all the pictures and hangings
and covering the walls with asparagus
fern, hung lightly from the ceiling TO
the floor. AT the doors and windows
catch the vines back and tie at the
side with white satin ribbon.
Cover the table with a white cloth.
and on the centerpiece OF white lace
place a large bowl OF white roses and
asparagus fern. II you choose. a
canopy OF vines may be stretched from
the ceiling or the chandelier to- the
edges OF the table. fastening wherever
they touch the cloth with a white rose.
The tableware should be OF silver and
glass as far as possible. and the small
dishes which ornament IL filed witt
small cakes with white icing. white
candles. strawberries covered with
white icing, white candied rose petals
and large white candy baskets filled
with crystallized fruit.
At wedding breakfast or luncheon
the guests should be seated around the
room and not at the table which is
only used 10 serve from and the menu
should be simple. Here is a menu that
you may modify according to your
convenience:
Cream OF Celery Soup.
Sweetbread Croquettes with Peas.
Rolls.
Chicken Salad.
Ice Cream in White Rose Forms. or
any Rich White Cream
