W. E. Brown Co. A WAR TRAGEDY. thetic incident at the Siege of Port Hudson. 1t the siege at Port Hudson, La., ere was one gun commanded by Al onso Dubreuil. He was a young gar planter who had opposed seces )n, but maintained that If Louisiana ceded he would go with his state. Chatrand, his neighbor, was a vio at secessionist, and Dubreuil and the ctor's daughter Amelia were lovers. uisiana seceded. Alphonso raised a mpany and proved so brave a Con derate that the doctor, who had op sed his daughter's marriage, readily nsented, and the pair were married. Elis bride was accorded special per ission to go Into the bomb proofs of e fort, where in comparative safety Ce could be near her husband. There e saw him operating his enormous in, but her heart was torn with fear r his safety. Suddenly she became :cited by the noise of firing and, rush g out from her place of safety, was ruck by a piece of shell and fell back eless. Dubreull ran to her side, saw ath in her face and went back brave to his gun. The next morning was beautiful, and e sun shone gloriously. There was ssation of hostilities that the dead ight be buried. Thus engaged, a re iest came from the enemy to allow e body of a young lady to pass Lrough our lines. It was granted. he little cortege came, preceded by a litary band playing a mournful rge, and halted at the outpost. The d musket box used as a bier was ac >mpanied by two ladies and several ficers. One of the latter, a handsome ung fellow with long hair, walked tImly and slowly, but his face be nyed the greatest grief. A detail of nfederate privates acted as pallbear s. Our men uncovered their heads. All were blindfolded and led through r lines to the steamboat. They bade last adieu to the dead bride and re Lrned blindfolded. It was the saddest sight I ever saw. N. Saussy in Spare Moments. ASLEEP UNDER WATER. no of the Funny Incidents Possible In a Diver's Life. As showing how much at home a :an may be tcday under water I may late an amusing story. Some months go while a great battleship was at [alta one of the seamen divers went own to clear her propeller from some otsam that had become entangled, ad he failed to come up. It chanced iat the rest of the battleship's divers -ere ashore, and grave concern was alt on the Ironclad for the missing -orker. Signals by telephone and life no were sent below without avail, In. le launch above the throb-throb of me air pump's cylinders went on, but me attendants looked at one another idismay, fearing some strange trag :ly deep down in those heaving green eas. The worst was feared when some ig brushes and other tools came float ig to the surface, and thereupon the avigating lieutenant sent ashore an rgent message for one of the other* vers. The man came on board, ressed immediately and went below, ly to come up full of Indignation. "Why, that fellow's been asleep all mis time!" he said wrathfully. It was -e. The man had just had his lunch, nd,fnding the w,rk much less serious an he had thought, he finished it in few minutes and then sat comfort bly on one of the giant blades of the attleship propeller and went to sleep ith inquisitive fishes swarming round him, attracted by the dazzling 3archlght on his breast. The officers ere so amused at the occurrence that o punishment was inflicted on the tzy one.-St. Nicholas. Where Bullets Flew. Davia Parker, of Fayette, N.

Russian Marriages. The celebration of a Russian mar riage sometimes extends over three days. At the wedding festivities the 4 bride is expected to dance with the men one after another until she drops with sheer fatigue. It is a matter of pride with her to keep going as long as possible, and it is not ur.usual to find a bride dancing gayly after three days and nights of vigorous frolic. When a girl is dancing with a man she always holds his pipe. It would be regarded as extremely rude if a man should continue to smoke his pipe in such circumstances.-IOndon Tit-Bits. Not So Bad.
