TEARFUL EYES AND QUIVERING LIPS - 4 Brave Attempt to Hide the Pain of Parting. THE SCENES WITNESSED —————————— There was a jostle and a jar at the depot of the Baltimore and Ohio Saturday even- ing, when the District Volunteers reached there to embark for Chickamauga, but it was a good-natured throng. The people had assembled to see their soldier boys off on their mission of duty, and but few in the great assemblage were without a rep- resentative in the ranks: Desplte the at- tempt to be brave and cheerful, there was the index of pain in many faces and scenes of real sorrow were not wanting. “He jests at scars that never felt a wound,” murmured an old fellow Saturday evening, as he stood beside a pair of lovers, who in their deep grief over the coming parting, were utterly oblivious to the surg- ing crowd, and had been the subjects of not a few laughing remarks from the merry young people who were there to see the troops start for the front. ve been there’,’ said another with a sage nod. “Me and Jenny went on just that way, back in Illinoy in ‘61, when I went to the front. Looked to us as thought there wan't anybody but us in the hull wide world, and eternity was a comin’ in between. We lived through it, though, didn’t we, ma?” at the same time poking a matronly wo- man in the ribs with his elbow. “We lived through it all right,” she re- sponded, with & cheery laugh, “but I don’t never want to see no darker days than them was.” “That Is just what I was a sayin’,”” he returned. “You don’t catch me a makin fun of these kids. It's a sorrowful hour for them, and havin’ been wounded myselt, I know just how bad they feel. Heart ache will kill just as quick as any other kind of pain, if it keeps eatin’ in. I know that cause I seen fellows die in the hos- pital of just heart ache, hungry for home folks. Here, you! Let them two alone,” he said at last, literally driving the laugh- ing group away. Over at one of the car windows a father was leaning out, holding his year-old baby in one arm, and reaching down to grasp his wife’s hand with the other. They were not saying a word, the sorrow of parting was too deep for that. The baby was pat- ting her father’s curls, and softly kissing him on the cheek, calling him her “booful papa.” Suddenly she drew back her head and rubbed her lttle hand over his cheek. She locked at her hand and then laid it over her father’s eyes. She drew it back again and looked at it a second, and then said: “He’s twyln! Poor papa.” A poor old mother came along in a frenzy of grief. She had been waiting at the Bal- timore and Ohio depot on New Jersey av. nue and C streets for an hour, and had just found out that her son was 2 mile away at another point. She had a little box of lunch for.him. She stumbled along, ask- ing everybody she met if they had “seen Tim?” “Sure, and he'll be thinkin’ his ould mother has forgot him, child of me heart that he i Her eyes were so blinded with tears that she could scarcely find her way. Suddenly a lovely young girl who evidently knew Tim, and Tim's mother, left her party ot 1 society friends and taking the old id gently: “Come with me, Mary. I saw him in his car down here 4 moment ago, and he sent a bood-bye to you.” ‘The poor little mother broke into a happy little laugh, and ‘trotted off, showering biessings on the “darlint.” Hustled Out of the Crowd. A fellow came along selling flags. “Here’s yer Ol Glories! Only fi’ cents a-pie “Here You able-bodied young duffer. Why ain't you going off to fight for Old Glory, instead of trying to make money off of her?” asked a by-stander. ot much!” was the quick rejoinder. hat’s too much like work.’” In the twinkling of an eye the crowd began to hustle him, and he got out. It n't safe to stay there after that re- mark. Down by one of the cars, leaning against the ood a man and a maid. a ers, that plain to be But they were not making love to cach other. That was plain to be seen, also. ‘They were singing! Just a shadow of a song it scemed, it so low, yet one who w stening could tell that the sw. « and clear tenor had often ming gone by, and that they perfect accord. With eyes cast down, and right hand clasping lett, they sang that sweet old song of Moore's which ends: “No, the heart that has truly loved never forgets, But as truly loves on to the close; Ag the sunmower turns on her god when she wets, The same lovk that she turued when he rose,” The song told volumes, and an hour's soft nothings, would have expressed only a tithe of the affection that Moore crowd- ed in his beautiful lin but they sounded almost like a misererie. A dear little girl, dainty as a bit of Dres- den china in her pink silk and rich laces, Was with her father and mother, and car- ried in her little hot hand a bunch of roses. She watched the laughing groups and smiled, and when she saw tears on other faces, her own sunny one clouded over, but in all the crowd there seemed to be no one that she recognized. As her parents paused, for an instant, she began to look wistfully about. Presently she spied one of the “bcys in blue’ who was ill-clad, and who stood with his hands rammed down in his peckets, and looked furtively out over the crowd, apparently all alone in the midst of all the partings. Little Miss D1 len eyed him over and over again. here Was something about him that appealed to her.

Her mother is dead and Elsie, that’s her name, is away off in Cali- fornia. I wish I could kiss her good-bye,” he added tmpulsively. The little girl looked at her mother, who, by that time, was watching the couple in- tently, half smiling, and then back at her strange acquaintance. Then she said with Gecision: “I think you may Kiss me if you would like, and play It 1s your little girl. Then I'll give you my roses, and you won't be so lonesome.” A Pathetic Incident. The soldier gave @ half-appealing glance at the mother, who Simply nodded her sens- ible head, and then, 'picking the child up in his strong arms, he said, brokenly: “You dear little blossom, I'll be a better man for this. I was lonesome, and almost desperate. -pye, and God wbless you. I'll send Elsie oné"0f your roses and tell her how you kissed her papa for her.” Then he kisssed her pink cheek and set her down. Lifting his hat to fier mother, he was about to move away, when she stepped to his side and said, as’she extend. edher hand: When you are tempted to do something that will make your I¥tle girl blush, if she hears it in after years, remember little and it may Help yoa to be a better man. “Indeed it will,” he replied, tears stand- ing in his eyes, and wringing het hand he buried aia a oe canny Ate Metle girl had given him and moved quickly away. re that held the Emmet Guards had as many women around them as all the others together, !t seemed.

A sweet little miss, whose fac calico frock and mended sh« of poverty, came down to the Emmet cars with an old lady. The child had an armful of red roses. She walked along the cars, appetizin ad d but clean looking for some one in authority, and finally approached one of the guards on the platfor “Please, sir, mayn’t I give my roses to the soldier boys?” At this the old lady, who spoke with a pleasant little brogue, explained that the child’s grandfather died in Libby prison, and she had an idea that she ought to do something for the new soldier boys who “might see grandpa’s grave, maybe.” “My husband's body never came back to me,” she remarked, sadly. In an instant the child was lifted on the car, and passed down the aisle, saying to “Do you want a rose? It’s for ’" and over each manly memory while the little girl jumped down, her face radiant with the thought of patriotic duty well performed. Example Was Infectious. Just before the first section pulled out one of the boys sung out: “Who wants to kiss me for my mother?” Instantly he was set upon by all the pret- ty girls about him, and at least twenty Kisses were his in less than a minute. A big, handsome fellow, who hung as far out of a near-by car window as he dared, to get that much closer to his sweetheart, said, plaintively: “I wish I could kiss you.” Quicker than scat two men standing by caught up the slender girl and held her up to the window, where she received a hearty kiss from her lover. The act was catching, for in another minute almost every window had a laughing, blushing girl held up to reach her lover's lips. Bold? Nota bit of it. It was touching in its absolute pathos. Who knows how many of those brave young fellows will come back? In the face of the dangers that they were about to enter, the thought that the sweet-faced girls they loved were not afraid of public opinion, or of jokes and jeers of the ignorant, but wanted to send them away with the sweet pledge of af- fection, will be a dear memory, an incen- tive for right doing through all the trying scenes upon which they were about to en- ter, and will help them over many rough places.
