THE influence of civilization is making

Wonderful to relate, a bill is now before
the Legislature of that State which aims
at the suppression of duelling, and still
more strange to say the chances are that
it will become a law. In that case any
honorable gentleman who kills his man
will make himself liable to be tried for
willful murder-a liability in which the
seconds will share. If that bill were
passed and enforced, duelling would verv
soon go out of fashion; but even il the
law is so fixed, a long time must elapse
before it can be made effective. It would
not be possible at present to bring to-
gether in South Carolina a jury who
would convict under the circumstances
stated,

very seldom interfere with the business

over Whistler, whose great strength defied
all the attacks Of his nimble adversary.
Twice Whistler threw Bibby On his knees,
but each time he showed want Of skill.
Instead of following his advantage quickly
he allowed Bibby time to recover himself.
After an hours work both men began to
show signs of fatigue and of rough hand
ling. Bibby's neck was scratched and
bruised by Whistler's grips, and his lip
and nose were bruised from coming into
contact with the muscles Of Whistler's
shoulders. Whistler's arms and wrists
were bruised, and one elbow was bleeding
from an abrasion caused by Bibby's sharp
and continued grips.
Once Whistler lost a chance to gain a
fall being too slow, when Bibby, making a
misstep, turned his back towards him.
After wrestling over four hours both
agreed to call the match a draw.
