HIS ONLY DUEL.

My story goes back to the early thirties. I whs

youn^ fellow of 21 and a sub in

one of the crack regiments, the th. I was as vain and conceited at that time and as convinced of my hi)portanco In the cosmic Bcheros as any youth present* My father, General Molever, was a personal friend of his majesty, and I was free of the best society. I had ample means, and lived the life of a butterfly, and exhibited about as much brains to an admiring world. Tlwru was a multitude of ladies of all degrees who were pining and sighing for my smile, so it pleased me to believe, and my days were spent in the emptiest flirtation. But at last I met Lady Geruldino Bond at ono of the court balls and for the first time I learned what love meant, I won much struck with hor—sho was the reigning beauty of that season— got introduced her and danced wiu her several times th evening. Thereafter I was always to be found whero she was. Tho intimacy ripened day by day, and as I was a good looking fellow in those days 1 fancied I had impressed her as much as she had me. After knowing her for a few weeks I proposed, and to my delight was accepted.

My affection for her was genuine, and the engagement sobered me somewhat. I left off some of my foolish habits and things that could bo called by a worse namo, and devoted myself solely to her Fortunately tho parents on both sides, "were In favor of tho union, and I was universally congratulated. At the next levee his majesty spoke kindly to mo about It. Perhaps things were running too smoothly for a happy issue into matrimony, and •disaster soon followed—brought about by my own foolishness and conceit, as you -will hear.

The dootor of tho regiment I adorned was an Irishman, a noted wit and tho life and soul of the mess. Ho could toll the most ridiculous story without a smilo or

bo

much as a twitching muscle. Ho did not" spare tho follies and foibles of tho youngsters of tho moss, and wo dreaded an encounter wLh him, for wo were certain to cotno off second bost. As soon as my engagement became known, I knew the dootor would amuso tho moss at my expense. And so it proved, and proved me A fool. '"Dear, doar," Ro said, as if to himself, "engaged so young! I know tho Lady Oeraldino. Not tho ono .with squint and freckles. No, no, of course. That is Gertrude. I knew Geraldino when sho watf a girl of 14 and used to juliinb trees. sweet mouth she hiul! I've kissed it many a time."

A laugh went- round, and I blushed mightily. "I hog your pardon, Dr. Mullens," I said arrogantly, "but you will pleaso not discuss tho youug lady at this tablo. You must find author subject for your

•Mokes!' It is joke, my boy. '. It is really a pretty immth, as you ought to know. I haven't, wen iter for two years, but it was as sweet as over then."

And again a laugh wont round. There was nothing in this for a sane man to object to, but 1 was Idiot enough to consider that m.v to tide rest feelings were being niiulen subject of mockery and the woman I loved Insulted. Could I bo a man, I asked myself, and allow It? And my brain. Invited with wine, answered, "No!" "I demand, Dr. Mullens," I said

4,that

you withdraw your offensive re­

marks and at once." "Don't bo a fool," said Major Gregory, from tho liond of the table. ''Surely you ivro not idiot enough to resent little harmless pleasantry of that feludf"

This Is my affair, I bellevo," I answered him, with what I meant to bo a withering look of contempt. '"I demand an apology for your offensive remarks," I added, turning to the doctor, "That's right, insist, insist!" said tho younger officers to me. They scented fun from my ridiculous behavior, though at the time I took It. for sympathy. "Very well," said the dootor, with a tuook tliKld nlr,

uif

you will ait down I

will withdraw, Mr. Molever.** I sat down, and the dootor rose. "Gentlemen and Mr. Molever, I am sorry to say that Lady Gor&ldlno Bond has not a pretty mouth."

There was a burst of laughter, and I lost 4} control of myself. I poured out a glass of wine and tlung It In his fnoo. "There," I said, "If you aro not a coward yoo can take the proper means of satisfaction for •hat."

Mullens was a brave man, as we all taaew, and had shown his oonrago many times. All he did was quietly to take his handkerchief from his pocket and wipe his faco. Tho older man wero vary indig nant with mo. "You have behaved disgracefully," said Major Gregory, who was the chief officer present.

With a allow of dignity, which must have looked mightily ridiculous, I iqft the room, pausing to remark at the door: •'I shall expect you tonanre your Criand, Ir. Mullens. Mr. Gorely there will act fir me."

Gorely was my chum, and one of those who had urged me on. I went to my rooms with the air of Athanawius contra ^:.dum and waited there for a couple of nouns. Then I sent note to Mulleit^ which ran: "If you do not chotxss to seek the Mtisfaotion of a gentleman, I give you notice that

I

shall publicly horsewhip yoa on

ond. But It ia a bitter and blac business, and I wish I were out of it." .''What is the matter?" ''I suppose you understand ho is the insulted party and has choice of weapons?" "Yes, what of that?" "Well, he is bloodthirsty, and this is to be a duel to the death. I protested against the dastardly business, but there is no choice. You must go on or apologize, and I warn you he .will take nothing less than an abject apology." And Gorely hid his face In his hands, and, as I thought, groaned. "You have no need to Hear," I said calmly, though rny hair felts as if it were rising, "I shall not Tologize."

What wer.pons do you think tho dootor has chosru?'* Pistols ., "No, pills!" "V "Pills? Is this afresh insult?'V '*I wish it were. Two pills are being prepared exactly alike, one harmless, the other of strychnine. You are to take one, Mullens the other." "Is—is this allowable? I stammered, almost sick with horror '4It is. The whole mess has been consulted and Gregory lias even been to Brookes' toiv*a Sir James Ington, who is, as you know, the first authority on the duello. He «iys it is vindictive, but perfectly lawful. I think, Molever, I should apologize." •'Never, never!" I cried, whiFe nature fought against the words. It was horrible as I thought of all, for I did not doubt that I should bo the victim.

At Gorely's suggestion I made my will, but with suo'i a trembling hand that I am afraid it would have puzzled an expert to decipher it. Next I wrote a note to Geraldlne, to be delivered in case of my death telling her in high flown language that I died to save her name from insult.

Gorely adWsed me to sleep. I could more easily have flown. All through that wretched night I was pacing wearily up and down, erasing myself for my follyand vowing, if I came scatheless through the affair, I would be less arrogant.

At 6 Gorely called me. I took a oup of ccJffee with brandy, but it did little for me. The fielt1 of honor was to bo the messroom, and thither we went. It was but a few yards, but I had tho greatest difficulty in walking there.

Tho room struck a chill, to my heart. All the blinds were drawn, and there were only two solitary candles to light the vast room, which looked funereal. All the mess were assembled, Dr. Mullens looking quite as perky and cheerful as usual. He gravely saluted me, and then we all sat down at tho table, the doctor opposite me. I was glad we wore seated, as my trembling legs were under tho table .and could not be seen. I was shown the pills. To all appearanco they were exactly similar. "You aro to have first choioe, Molever," said Major Gregory, "and the doctor will take tho other." I bowed. My throat was so dry that I could not speak.

The pillbox was placed before me. My fingers trembled so much that I suppose It was quite a minute, beforo I could fumble ono out. Then the box was passed to tho doctor, and ho took the other. ''Now," said tho major, "both of you place them in your mouth and swallow thorn when 7 give the word."

I got mine in my mouth, and, with a great effort, I got it down. "Swear on your honor you have swallowed them," said Gregory "I swear I have swallowed it," I almost shriekod, for that pill burned my throat and gullet as it wont down. A glass of wine was handed to each of us, and then Mullens rose. ''Molever," he said, "lam truly sorry tho luck is against you. I know from tho taste of my pill it is tho harmless one. I should like to have your pardon while thero Is time. Let us shake hands."

But shako hands I could not. While ho was speking tho agony began. My throat was burning, and I could trace tho passago of tho pill by a traok of fire. There wero awful pains in my stomaoh, and I could feel tho poison was running with my blood over my body. My brain was on fire. I could not see. I fell from my chair and rolled in agony. "Savemo, savo me! O-h-hl" I groaned as I writhed and rolled on tho floor. Since then I have seon war in all parts of the world and been wounded throo times, but tho pain was nothing to what I felt then. I could not see my comrades to distinguish them, only I know they wero standing round watching my death struggles.

Good heavens, is it a mistake, Mullens?" I heard some ono ask, and Mullens answered, ''Of course not. It is just what I told you it would bo. Fetoh my stomach pump, .Flelchrsr, and bo quick *:bout, it." And then hts knelt by my side. "Poor fellow, docs it hurt so very much?" "I am dying—dying—dying!" and%uy voice rose in a shriek, and I writhed and rolled again.

Tho doctor knelt and folt my pulse, and his faco became very grave. Then ho rose and whispered something to. the others. Instantly thoro was a groat shout of laughter that came peal on peal for about three minutes.

Dying as I was, I raised myself on my elbow to look at the inhuman wretches who could look on and laugh whilo a comrade lay dying in agony. That look, I thought, would haunt them throughout their lives. But there came a louder laugh than ever. "By Jove, Mullens, I couldn't have bolioved it, although you wero

bo

confident!"

said Gregory. Tho best thing I ever saw. Ha, ha, hAI" and the whole room roared again. "Get up, for goodness' sake,'' said Gorely to me. ''I've heard of bread pills before, but I did not know they were so deadly. Why, man, both pills wero made of bread, and yon have been acting like that"

Contempt and disgust would not let him finish. "It was near being a serious matter, though," said Mullens. "He had all but killed himself with fright." And they tolled this time in langhter.

If a look oould have done murder, I ahonld have slain them all where they stood. With as mitoh dignity as I oould muster I rose and left the room, feeling half inclined to take a dose of strychnine in real earnest. Strange to say, ail my pains had left me as suddenly as they began.

It turned out as I had feared. Before the day was out the clubhand drawing tooms were in convulsions with the tale, and I believe his majesty was even entertained with it. I could not summon sufficient courage to visit Geraldine that day, and when I did see her I knew of no excuse that would be of any avail. But I was spared all excuses. The next day when I went to see her the footman told

sm

th«

ix*t opportunity—that la, If you do not «hoose to tender a full apology." About midnight Gorely came to my *oom, with a grave face. "I have arranged it

all," he said. "Gregory will be hta sec­

she was not at home. I met her the day after. She cut me dead. "But what caused all your symptoms, major*" we asked. "Simply and solely my irongim n," answered the major. "•Mullens soU^nly declared that If I had been left a few min ntes longer it would b.-vre becu all over with

me."—London Tit-Bit*.

POTATO BUGS VERSUS LOCUST&

A Kecular Kilkenny Cats* Seance Followed liy a Satisfactory Truce.

Stories about 17 year lochsts are becoming as woolly a» the grasshopper stories of last year.

Down in Sullivan county an advance guard of locusts entered a potato field and began their usual work of destruction. The potato bugs apparently thought that this was an encroachment oh their rights. For two days farmers noticed a great migration of bugs, toward that particular field. They traveled along the road in squadrons and battalions and seemed to be under regular leaders. It became plain that the word had been pasfeed to all potato bugs in the vicinity that their help was wanted, and they were prepared for war. They assembled on one side of the field, while the locusts gathered on the other. 1

Then came the battle. The bugs' plan of campaign was to coyer that portion of the field which they were defending, so whenever a luckless locust or detachment of locusts attempted to alight on it the plucky beetles would pounce upon their enemies and tear and claw them to pieces. The locusts began making regular attacks, and the slaughter of both insects was very great, while between them they left nothing of the potato vines. The fight lasted for two days. Then there seemed to he a truce. As a result, it is noticed now in Sullivan county that whenever the locusts approach afield of potatoes the bugs retire from about one-third of it The locusts destroy that portion and leave the rest for the beetles to eat at their leisure. It is inferred that this is in accordance with the terms of the peace.

The pluckiest fight against locusts that I hpve heard of, however, was made by a ram in Dutchess county. He was the patriarch of the flock and of course considered himself its leader and protector. When the locusts invaded his pasture, he noticed that food became scarce. So he set to work to destroy the plunderers. Of course he had no other weapon than the one provided him by nature—his big, hard head. He ran about the field bunting and crushing the locubts. Whenever he could get one against a tree, he would smash it Fe kept that work up with great energy for two whole days, not stopping to e't anything himself. But the numbers of his enemies were too great, and at the end of the second day the self sacrificing animal sank down and died of exhaustion.—Buffalo Express.

ONCE A POWER IN IOWA.

Bat Ex-Governor Sherman Is .Now a Clerk In a Country Store.

From the office of the governor of a great state to the position of floorwalker of a big store—that seems not only improbable, but impossible, and yet there is an incident of the kind on record. Following Governor Gear's retirement from the office of chief executive of Iowa came Buren R. Sherman, who for two years made an excellent governor. Just why the precedent of a seoond term was not followed I cannot say unless it was that the opposing wing in the Republican party was too strong for Mr. Sherman and his friends.

At all events, he stepped down and out and pursued the even tenor of his way as a private citizen. In some manner the cards refused to break even for Governor Sherman, and as a last resort he was compelled to accept a position as floorwalker in the largest store in the city of Des Moines. In this honorable but by no means exalted position he discharged his duties cheerfully and was so affable and pleasant that the public learned to like trading at Des^ Moines' big department establishment

A

It was a shrewd business movexnert upon the part of the proprietors, and they reaped great benefits therefrom for along time. Eventually, however, the ex-governor dropped out of the clerks' society and quietly disappeared from notice. No one seemed to have missed him particularly, and but few inquired after the urbane ex-governor and obliging floorwalker. Recently, however, an old time friend of Mr. Sherman happened to be in a certain village in northeastern Iowa and stepped into a store to buy a shirt.

There was ex-Governor Sherman, measuring calicoes, tying up groceries and performing other duties devolving upon a country clerk in a country store.

Old time memories were revived, and the traveler remained over a train in order to have a visit In relating these circumstances the gentleman said: "I don't know what ails the governor. I reckon he has lost his grip. He seems to he satisfied with his job said apparently has no ambition to better himself. He was once a power in Iowa now he is nothing but a dry goods clerk. I don't understand it. "—Chicago Mail.

A Mew Calendar SoggMted.:

Austin Tyler, the well known inventor, innovator and iconoclast, has arranged anew calendar, chiefly for business men, which has IS months in the year instead of IS. Each mcrnth, except the thirteenth month, he has arranged to have 88 which, he contends, will simplify and expedite the calculation of interest The odd day will fall in the thirteenth month, which in the interest tables can be easily arranged. He says that several bank presidents have given their approval of his calendar, and his belief is that it will finally be adopted. He points to the fact that Russia has two calendars, one for the churrh and one for business purposes. The odd month, he thinks, should be called Christmas.-—New Yoack Commercial.

SHE PUZZLES THE DOCTORS.

A. Bemarka&le Series of Transitions of Conditions In a Missouri Girl.

A strange case that is attracting the attention of and puzzling the local doctors of Kansas City is that of Lillian Miller, a girl of 11 years# who has un dergone a most remarkable change within the past year. About a year ago Lil lian was a slight girl, of extreme jierv ous disposition. She had a fainting fit at that time which the attending physician attributed to nervousness. From that time on the fainting spells grew frequent until finally they took the form of convulsions, and with this change came one that was wonderful to a degree.

The child, when out of the convulsions, complained of much pain and acted as a child of her age would natural ly. During the convulsions and imme diately after she appeared to become an other person. She took on the appearance of a very old woman in speech and manner. She would converse as an old woman and give advice to those around her. She claimed to be 99 years old and did not know those of the family who were with her. This peculiar condition lasts for an hour or sd, and then she returns to her normal condition. These changes have become frequent until now she about equally divides her time between the two conditions.

Another strange feature of "tbe case is the fact that while she is in her normal condition she eats very little and apparently has no appetite. When she takes on the secondary condition, she eats heartily, and during the last three months has grown to the stature and development of a woman. While sho is in the condition of an old woman she says she is without pain .and is perfectly well. She says she knows of no one who is named Lillian Miller, but insists that she is very old. She uses language and recites poetry far beyond the ability of a little girl.

Drs. C. D. and Park McDonald, hor attending physicians, are well knowr, and they have had in consultation with them Dr. J. Brummel Jones, who makes a study of nervous and mental diseases. The parents are anxious that the scientific world may investigate the case.— St Louis Globe-Democrat v, ffl -THE MOUNTAIN LABORED.

And It Srought Forth Death and Desolation to a State of Columbia.

About 1 miles from the town of Rio Blanco, state of Cauca, Colombia, a remarkable geological phenomenon has recently created great excitement A mountain ridge, called Cerror de Cruz Lomaj suddenly cast a large part of its upper levels into neighboring rivers, carrying death and destruction in its wake.

For some days before prolonged subterranean sounds—a sort of hoarse rumbling and roaring—were heard, indicating that something serious was about to occur, and on the date mentioned the tjpper part of the hill suddenly caved in, the enormous quantity of earth descending to and obstructing the course of the rivers Guachicono, Molino and others. It is feared that the overflow of the rivers will ocoasion an extensive inundation, or that, breaking away the earth dam, whole villages and valuable properties will be destroyed. As an immediate result of this occurrence 12 persons were killed, besides a large number of horses and cattle.

It seems only natural to attribute this phenomenon to the eruption of. the Sotara volcano, which for some time has been observed to be covered with snowlike vapor and clouds. The departmental government, justly alarmed by this occurrence, has appointed a commission of engineers to investigate the matter. —Unidad NacionaL

THE PLAGUE BACILLUS. 1

It I» Different From Any Ever Before Found In the Human Body.

The news that no fewer than 130,000 persons have been swept away by the plague in the district of Canton gives interest to the results of the scientific investigation of the disease which havo just been received here. Two Japanese experts who havo been studying for several years at the Koch institute were «ent by their government to make inquiries.

They report that the period of incubation is from two to seven days. This is followed by prostration with high fever, ending in delirium and coma. Both physicians declare that they identified the plague bacillus, which is different from any ever before found in the human body. They describe it as slender, straight and short. It devastates all the principal internal organs.

Experiments in breeding plague bacilli and inoculating animals with virus invariably produce within two days death under symptoms of the plague. Dr. Kitasato, being satisfied there is no other alternative but that either the bacilli or the patient must die, is on the lookout for bacteriocides, but it is too early to expect definite conclusions.— London COT. New York Sun.

A MYSTERIOUS CONVICT.

He Conceals His Identity, bnt Not His liant Accomplishments.

n-

"Who isHogan?" is a question which has troubled prison officers at the southern Illinois penitentiary for years. Hogan is the brightest convict, intellectually, in the prison and and is one of the most valuable because of his versa tility. Interest in Hogan has increased materially since Governor Altgeld, a few days ago, commuted his sentence from 48 to 21 years, and on next Christmas eve Hogan will transplant his talents to more congenial surroundings.

Thomas Hogan, "Peggy" Ryan and a man named Pritchard were beating their way across the country in 1873, and one day in September they boarded a Chicago and Alton freight train in Greene comity, near Carrollton, and found several other tramps in possession. A fight ensued. During tlie melee one of the tramps was thrown from or fell off the train and was killed. Hogan, Ryan and Pritchard were arrested for murder. They were quickly disposed of at the rate of 48 years each in the penitentiary.

The prisop ofiicers soon recognized Hogan's superior talents and placed him where he could render valuable service. He took a deep and intelligent Interest in every duty assigned to him and was very quiet, orderly and neat in everything he did. He never gave up a word as to his parents, relatives or honie. He never wrote a letter, except to his lawyer, or received one, but it is confidently believed that Hogan is highly connected. He is a college graduate.

Said Warden Baker, speaking of Hogan: "Do we want a translation from the Greek or Latin inscription, Hogan does it If any piece of copy is to be written in a copper plate hand, Hogan does it in the most elegant manner. If we require a trial balance made, Hogan makes it. He is filled with accurate information upon all sorts of subjects and makes all kinds of calculations with ease, yet he never volunteers to say a word unless asked. He appears to be contented and applies himself diligently to his duties. He is one of the bost prisoners we have."

A correspondent met Hogtin in the office the other day and was greeted by a cordial handshake. "Yes, I am very glad I am going out," he said. "I havo been herb 21 years and am anxious for a chango. I have had some very warm friends here during that time among the officers, whom I shall be pleased to see again.'' And ho led tho conversation away from himself as if he wished .to avoid it.—Chicago Correspondent.

A COAT OF IRON RODS., 'fC"

I have been stimulated by the recent trials of the bullet proof cuirass to try a few experiments on the subject. I will only mention one experiment, which I made this morning, assisted by several members of the Junior Scientific club here. It occurred to me that, if tho energy of tho bullet could be made to act at rather a large angle to its lino of flight, its penetrating power would be diminished.

'i *'4"1?

To effect this I arranged a number of soft iron rods one-quarter inch in diameter and 5 inclies long side by side and touching apiece of deal board. On these another layer was placed, so that one of the upper rods touched two of the under ones. A sheet of thin rubber one sixteenth of an inch thick placed on this separated it from a similar combination attached to it at right angles, and the whole formed tho target

The rifle used was a Winchester, 22 bore, carrying a long bullet At a distance of 20 feet the bullet penetrated five inchcs of hard pine with certainty, but when the bullet, fired at the samo distance, hit my rod target it failed to penetrate even the first layer, but only drove the upper rods aside nearly at Yight angles to the line of flight Tho next experiments will be made with heavier materials and larger shot Possibly a similar arrangement, but of largo steel cylinders, might make a satisfactory barrier to the shots of big guns.—p.
