The RECENT GREAT FRENCH DUEL.

Much as the modern French duel is ridi-
cnled by certain smart people. i: is in re-
ality one of the most dan gerous institu-
tons of our day. Since it is always fought
in the open air. the combatants are nearly
sure to catch cold. NJ. Paul de Cassagnac
the most inverate Of the French duelists.
has suffered SO often in this way that he is
at last confirmed invalid; and the best
physician in Paris has expressed the opil :
ion that if he goes on dueling for fifteen
or twenty years more. unless he forms the
habit of fighting in comfortable room
where damps and draughts cannot intrude,
he will eventually endanger his life. This
ought TO moderate the talk of those people
who are SO stubborn in maintaining that
that the Frenc! duel is the most heathfnl
of recreatiOns because Oh the open-air eX-
ercise it affords. And it ought also to mod
crate the foolish talk about French duelists
and socialist-hated mOnarchs being the
only people who are immortal.
But it is time to get at my subject. AS
soon as heard Of the late fiery outbreak
between NJ. Gambetta and NJ. Fourtou in
the French assembly, knew that trouble
must follow. | knew it because long
personal friendship with NJ. Gambetta had
revealed to me the desperate and implaca-
bic nature of the man. Vast rs are his
physical proportions. | knew that the
thirst for revenge would penetrate to the
remOtest frontiers of his person.
| did not wait for him to cell on me, hut
went at once to him. As l expected,
found the brave fellow stepped in pro-
found French calm. say French calm.
because French calmness and English
calmness have points of difference. He
was moving swiftly back and forth among
the debris Of his furniture, now and then
staving chance fragments OF it across the
room with his foot; grinding constant
grist of curses through his set teeth. and
halting every little while to deposit another
handful of his hair on the pile which he
had been building of it on the table.
He threw his arms around my neck, bent
me over his stomach to his breast. kissed
me on both cheeks, hugged me four or
i've times, and then placed me in his own
armchair. As soon as l had got well |
again, we began business at once.
said supposed he would wish me to
vet as his second, and he said, ''Of course"
said must be allowed to act under
French name, SO that might be shielded
rom obloquy in my country. in case OF
atal results He WINGED here, probably at
the suggestion that dueliag was not re
zartled with respect In America. However,
ne agreed to my requirement. This ac-

Variety is the spice of lite. An Irish

''Suppose, - said he, in accents soft
"a felloe. just like me,
Should axle little girl 10 wed,
What would the answer bs?''
The maiden drops her !iqIii eyes;
Her smiles with bushes minye;
'.Why seek the bridal halter when
You may live on, sur, cinsls?''
And then ne ppke-''Oh, be my bride,
aSs yon once again;
You are the empress of my soul,
And there sl.all ever rein
"I'l never tire o. kindly deeds
To win your gentle heart
And saddle be the shaft that rends
Our happy live, apart.
Upon her checks the maiden felt
This Inantling blushes glow;
She took him Ter her faithful hub,

Si HELM RICH.

II only mothers knew, she said,
How hungry children were for love,
Above each little virgin bed
A mothers lips would prove
How sweet are kisses that are yiven
Between rosy mouth aud heaven
II only nay mamma would kneel.
As your dear mamma, every night,
Beside her little girl, 10 feel
If "il the wraps are folded tight,
And hold m han,ls. her elbow iai..
Between my cheeks ana p. soft hair,
And looking In my dreaming eyes
As If she saw some lovely thing,
And smiling in snch fond surprise
On all my hopes of life that spring
Like flowers beneath her tender gaze,
could not stray in evil ways
would not wound the gentle breast
That hekl me warm within its fold;
Ny mothers love would still be host,
However sad, or PLAIN, or old;
And, even when the world forsake,
I'D love her for her love's dear sake
