It was Christmas eve In 18C2. “The ilgllt,” to cou- tlnuc the apt Dyroulc quota tion, “a b o n e o’er fair wom- cn and brave men." The men ^ were Confeder ate ofiicers. The women were the iMuictifiil ladioa of the Mississippi city. J’or many weeks General A^raut, the wnetny. had iiuineuvored at the outer gates. Though' tie had retired teiu- imrarlly. it was hut to devise a ad ex ecute new pinna for taking the city. By reducing Vicksburg the Union forces would control the Mississippi to the sea. cutting the Confederacy In twain. The Importance of holding this position was (raramount In the Con- fedemte cause. . _ Christmas is Christmas, whether lu war or lu |K*ace. Fair women and brave men will dance tonight, what ever may befall tomorrow. ’ General Martin I#. Smith, temporarily In com mand. was a central figure at the ball. Another officer present, unmarried, handsome, chivalrous, during, was General Stephen I). I-ee. only twenty- nine years of age and a noted lender. Shortly after midnight—the begin ning of Christmas day—a muddy, be draggled. uncouth soldier In gray burst stiddenly into th*- ballroom. The In truder rushed between the waltzing couples, wbo shrank from his muddy boots. Stalking straight up to General Smith, be saluted.

A moment later be cried In a loud voice: "This bull Is at an end! The enemy Is coming down the river. All nou- comUatauts must leave the city" Then the commander turned to the bearer of thla important news, thanked him for the service and apologised for bis harsh reception. On Christmas day General Lee mdv- ed out of Vicksburg with all regiments of Infantry and two batterlea to check General Sherman In bis landing on the Yazoo river, thirteen miles distant. General Lee occupied the bluffs and other high ground along a Hue of ten miles. There, on the three days fol lowing Christmas, was much blobdy skirmishing, and -on the 29th was fought the decisive battle of Chickasaw Bayou (or Bluffs, as some authorities call ID. Lee defeated Sherman, who finally assailed his well placed forces, and the northern general abandoned bis attempt to get into Vicksburg. Thus the city was saved to the Cdtirederilcy for more than six months. - The man In muddy boots and drip ping clothes who broke hp the ball and brought about the sanguinary con flict at Chickasaw bayou, a brilliant Confederate victory, was Philip If. Fall, n soldier detailed as n telegraph operator. Lee 8. Daniel, another Con federate telegrapher, had co-operated with him In saving Vicksburg. The details of this important service, fur: nlshlng one of the most romantic std- rics of the war between the states, have been supplied recently by General Lee himself, the only surviving lieu tenant general of the south. Telegraphers were scarce in the south when thd war l>egnn. Most of the operators were northerners find went borne. When young Daniel and Fall enlisted at Vicksburg the dis covery that they could handle the Mor?c key nud cod* caused them to be detailed for telegraphing. Horace ft. Tibbetts, a rich planter in Louisiana, owned a private telegraph Hue, run- hlng from bis estate a few miles south of Lake ProVl- denee to De So to. I.a., across the Mlsslaslpid directly opposite Vicksburg. The distance Le- tweefl the sta tions was sixty- five miles. The upper station, for military purposes, was established in the woods. Dan iel was placed there ns opera- '‘ofxDOAT!" said tor, with Fall DANtttr* ka De Soto. Daniel vfas instructed td keep a atrlct wstcii jif the five*, witieh fty tlie fall of Memphis had been open- 1 fid to Federal gunboats down to the vidlllty Of Vicksburg. He was to rtf |H»rt to Fall, wbo kept a skiff In which to row across to Vicksburg. At night a real llrbt iu the bow of the skiff pro tected him from being fired upon by the Coirfcdcrate batteries on thi heights of Vicksburg. \ Ertrly in December General Grant bad ordered General Sherman to us semble at Memphis a large force of men nud .munitions, proceed ou trans ports down the river under convoy of Admiral David IX Porter's gunboats and capture Vicksburg. General Sher man's plan, was to disembark np the Yazoo river, which empties iuto the Mississippi a few miles above Vicks burg. nud attack the city from the rear. ) t DAKnrn ron the tele- QUAPII STATION. He had about 30.000 men and strong artillery, in addition t» Admiral Por ter's dotlila of gunboats. At about 8:45 o'clock ou the night before Christmas Op erator Daniel and Major E. G. Earn hart were playing ‘old sledge” lu tholr ITttle shanty lookout station near the river. A small colored girl who lived on the plantation rushed Into the shack, crying: “Murse ’Arnhart, >o‘ an' Morse Dan iel better come out hyah! Ah heahs a boat n-comlu’."

The. placidity evanesced, however, wbeu presently there came to tbo ears of tbe two Confederates tbe "choo-choo-put-pat-pnt” which had been caught by tbe keen ears of little Artie.
