A Duel to the Death.

A sICKENING account of q duel in
Morocco is given by Il correspondent Of
the Repubii9ue Frdncdist. Two young
men of noble birth were paying their
attentions to the daughter Of u neigh.
boring chief, and As she showed equal
favor to each of them. it was arranged.
by mutual consent, that they should
meet in single combat and fight a duel
to the death. The conditions of the
duel were that they should meet on
horseback. each of the combatants being
armed with a rifle. a revolver and u
hunting knife. They were placed a
hundred yards apart, and, upon a signal
given by n of the seconds, they set
their horses AT full gallop and rushed at
each other. For a few moments the
spectators could see nothing but a cloud
of dust, from out Of which were heard
two successive reports Of a rifle, and
then a third, followed by the neighing
of a horse. When the dust had cleared
away, a shocking sight me the gaze Of
the spectators; n of the cOmbatants,
concealed behind his dead horse. was
taking aim-at his adversary, who still
remained in the saddle. The latter
spurred his horse and made it rear. the
noble beast receiving in his chest the bull
let meant for his master. The rider. as
soon as he was dismOunted. rushed for
ward to grapple with his adversary. but
a second shot fractured his left shoulder.
Nevertheless. he retained sufficient
strength to discharge two chambers Of
his revolver, both shots taking effect.
I,-l 30 la.I oo-kox st.. --,al
the two adversaries. neither Of whom
was able TO stand, stabbing each other
repeatedly. When the seconds and
spectators at last interfered the two
were picked up dead-one with his
teeth firmly set in his a~dversary's
cheek, while the l%atter's hand was
thrust into a gaping wound inthe others
chest.

They were two young men from the
country. and they drove up to the Post
office r this morning, attracted by
a large crowd which had collected to
hear a s~treet-corner vender of the Gem
Puzzle explain to the gaping spectators
how the puzzle could be done 'just as
easy as falling off q log" They con-
cluded to purchase one, and did so, but
were so impatient to try and work out
the COMPOUNDED thing that they CON-
menced moving the blocks as they drove
down & street. Long and patiently
they wrestled with it. and had got the
numbers all in place with the exception
OF the IL. IA and Is. Suddenly the
man who was driving imagined he had
discovered a move to bring everything
out ell right, and in his excitement and
eaggerness to show his companion how
to make the move dropped the reins.
The team started. The man who held
tie blocks was thrown out into the mud.
his blocks few in all directions, and the
horses were only checked bv running
into a buggy, which latter vehicle was
damaged to the extent of about thirty
dollars worth. a bill the country youths
agreed to settle before the owner of the
buggy allowed them to depart.-Cor.

The Saddest Phase OF Life In the
Gold and Silver Mining Regions.

The saddest phase of this coast
probably of all gold and silver-mining
regions-is the absence of homes. We
mean real homes, whose founder laid
the first h~earthstone and made the first
clearing with the thought that on that
spot he was to do his life's work. and
there, al last, amid familiar scenes, sink
into that sleep that is final. The alb
sence of this disposition has made
nOmads of the men of this coast. They
came here originally with the thought
that in a little while they would return
and make the home Of their future in
the lands of their birth. Could the air.
castles which have been erected in
thought by men on this coast. while w.
ing in hunks in rude cabins. or in
blankets around camp-fires. be woven
into a picture, what a city it would
make. But the years have stolen by;
except in isolated cases, the bewitching
dreams have never been realized, and
while the hoped-fOr homes were
builded back in the land of childhood.
neither, alas, have they been builded
here. We do not to say that
there are not plenty of families living
in what they call homes. But those
who have homes which were created
with the expectation that they would be
permanent, that in and about them was
to be boarded the gathered treasures OF
q life time, are very few. This might,
perhaps, be expected here in the desert,
but the same Is true of California, espe-
cially in the country. As a rule, the
farm-houses of California and their sur
roundings are q perpetual sign Of "For
Sale" On many Of those farms men
and families have lived for a quarter Of
a century, and still it has never been
home in any rightful sense of the word.
There has never been q time that the
husband and father has not intended 10
sell out in the course of > few months
and never q time that the family has
not hoped he would. - Virginia (Ner.)
