FRENCHMEN SATED; Itl BLOODLESS DUEL

Lover of Mme. Curie, Discoverer of Radium, Challenged G. Thery.

PARIS, Nov. 28. A bloodleBH piBtot duel took place between Prof. Langevin and Gustav Thery, who made public letters alleged to have been written by Mme. Curie, the scientist, to Professor Langevin. Thery was challenged by Langevin who came to the field accompanied by several brother professors and members of the French institute. The encounter was directed by Professor Paul Painleve of the faculty of sciences, Paris university. . Neither adversary fired, whereupon the seconds discharged the pistols of the principals in the air. The adversaries left the Held unreconciled. The encounter ia the third dual growing out of the Langevin-Curie love affair. The Mters of Professor Langevin and Mme. Cure have been aired In the Paris press for several days, and the friends and critics of the professor have defended and condemned him In turn. Professor Langevln's wife has begun proceedings against her husband, and the letters that have passed between ProfeRsor Langevin and Mme. Curie have furnished a choice morsel for Paris gossips. It is not Improbable that daily duels' will ba fought for some time to come. Until the publication of the letters the public was disposed to doubt that there was any scandal and authorities t Sorbonne, wnere Professor Langevin and Mme. Curie lectured, did ev

erything in their power to bush up the matter. ' It was hinted by some of the enejnles of Mme. Curie that she was injcap&ble of original scientific research, ,apd that, after the death of her husband, a few years ago, she acted under the direction of Professor Langevin. One of the letters published is held by her foes to bear this out. The letters as printed chiefly with the love affairs between Professor 'dangevin and Mme. Curie, one of them

containing more than three thousand words. It was charged in the action brought by Mme. Langevin against her husband that he rented a house in Paris and that he met Mme. Curie there very frequently. Mme. Curie's name stands at the head of women scientists and almost at the head of the entire list of modern scientists. She has been acknowledged the codiscoverer of radium with her husband, and recently received the Nobel prize in chemistry for her isolation of polonium. She is a Russian by birth and came to France practically an exile.
