Women Duellists.

Mr. Jefferson, in his volume about
doctor, has some stories concerning
women duellists, which are introduced
into the work because surgeons must
dress wounds given by female fighters
as well as men dueIlists. We quote
the following from bis book:
The few duels fought between women
have for the most part been character
lied by great ferocity. Madame Dun
meyer mentions case of a duel with
swords between two ladies of rank,
who would have killed each other had
they not been separated In a femi-
nine duel on the Boulevard St. Antoine,
mentioned by De la Colombiere, both
the principals received several wounds
on the face and bosom. Sometimes
ladies have distinguished themselves by
fighting with men Middle Dnreux
fought her lover Antinotti in an open
street The actress Manpin challenged
Durneny, but he declined to give her
satisfaction, so the lady stripped him of
watch and snuff box, and bore them
away as trophies of victory The
same lady, on another occasion, having
insulted in ballroom, distinguished
parsonage of her own sex, was reques-
ted by several gentlemen to qait the
entertainment She obeyed, but forth
with challenged and fought each of the
meddlesome caveliers-and killed them
all The slaughter accomplished, she
returned to the ballroom, and danced
in the presence of her rival. The
Marquis de Neale and the Countess
Polignac, under the Regency, fought
with pistols for the possession Of the
Due de Richelin. Tn about the year
1927 a lady of Chateauroux whose
husband received slap in the face,
called out the offender and severely
wounding him in a duel fought With
swords, wiped off the stain from her
lords honor. The most dramatic af-
fair of honor, however, inthe annals OF
female duelling occurred in the year 49,
25, when young French girl chal-
lenged a garde du corps who had Sc
duced her. At the meeting the sec
onds took the precautioa of load
ing without bali, the fair principle, oil

ringlets of the taller of the two, falling
about them both, were almost touch

small ivory miniature, which they were
examining with evident interest.
