DUELLING WITH CLUBS.
a Succ essful Lover Badly Beaten by His
Rival-rhe Fair One Goes to
His Bedside.

PITTsBURG, March 29.-A duel with clubs
was fought at an early hour Thursday NOM
ing in a ravine near the Finleyville branch
OF the Baltimore aud Ohio Railroad, q short
distance from Six-Mile Ferry. The Princi-
psls were Pero Cavanni, an Italian, and
Paul Candist, a Hungarian. Both boarded
at the house OF Javero Mandrisky, Hunga-
rian, st Six-Mile Ferry, aud were in love
with Mslvina, The pretty daughter OF their
landlord. Cavanni possesses a little money,
and is leader among his countrymen. Can
dist is foreman in brick. yard.
They were close friends until a short time
after the arrival from Europe Of Mandrisky's s
daughter. Cavsuni speaks several languages
and Malvina was greatly pleased when she
heard that he was familiar with her native
language, and they gradually grew to love
each other. Candist was persistent in his
attentions, but when he found that che pre-
ferred Cavanni, he became jealous and pur.
posely insulted the Italian. The result was
o challenge to q duel, which Candist ac-
cepted, naming as the weapons clubs about
the thickness OF policoman's billy.
Thursday morning the principals aud
their seconds met. Csndist proved himself
an expert with the club. He struck his op-
ponent several terrible blows and fually
knocked him senseless, and then beat him
while prostrate. The seconds interterred,
and Cavanni WAS removed to a friends house.
He ie dangerously injured. When Miss
Malvina heard of the affair she hurried TO
the bedside of her lover, and Tefused TO per-
nit anybody else to go near him. Candist

Special 70 the sentinel.
WAsHIxGToN, March % There is no
abatement among the dudes and dudines OF
society over the announcement that sixty or
seventy young spng OF officers in the army
and navy, who have been assigned here for
number o. years on nominal duty, and who
have been the nainsprings of the german
and progressive euchre, are to be ordered TO
the front, aud the sun burned boys who
have been deprived o. civilization for years
ordered here. The ladies are holding up
their dear hands in decided horror, and be
sieging Secretaries Endicott and Whitney to
spare the lilies that have 50 long been
planted here for the delecsation of society.
These Secretaries have been for more than
week be.ieged, night and day, by the sisters,
wives mothers and other female relatives
and the ladies OF society, to not send the
dear boys away, bat they have received no
encouragement; the boys must go, aud the
favors be distributed.
It transpires that President Arthur sane
toned the retention of such army and navy
officers here during his administration as
could best keep up society and the ine fell
lows he delighted 10 see at his many recep-
tiors and dinners. 1t was swell affair all
through, but the day OF reckoaing has come
and there are to be radical transfers. 1t is
not contemplated that so many of the officers
shall be kept here ON alleged duty. The
Secretaries say the men become incapaciatsd; (;
that they have no practical experience, grow
lazy, form habits of dissipation. and SOW
seeds OF discomfort in the service. For every
reason the superior officers say there should
be as few men assigned to Washington from
the army and navy as possible.
Long lists of written protests have been
received against the change, beside the
verbal remonstrancss, but it seems that there
is disposition to display little discipline
here where civilization, society. and the law
makers may see it work and feel it's saliant
effects. 1t is raising hubbub.

PARIS, March 20 The French seem rather
ashamed than otherwise cf the cheap vic
tory over Marie Van Zandt. One more such
Pyrrhus triumph, cay the critics, and what
will become of our old reputation for chiv-
airy? The manifestation at the Opera
Comique en- Thursdsy night went far beyond
the bounds Of good taste. Things reached
such Vass at one moment that the audience
actually went out into the place facing the
theater and showed their disgust By hooting
the hooters. AlexandTe Damas, though he
has no love for Americans, loaned at the
mouth with indignation. All except the
Clique which organized the cabsl agree that
these manifestations were disgraceful. Sarah
Bernhardt is among the hottest in denounc.
ing the want OF gsllsntry shown toward
Mile. Van Xandt.
A proposition has been made that in view
OF the outrageous persecution to which Mile.
Van Zandt has been subjected body-guard
OF Americans should be organized to protect
the prima donna from future in
suits end TO thrash sny of the bls sek-
guards who might attempt TO repeat
them. To-day q canvass Of the leading Amer
ican residents OF Paris was made to sscer-
tain what was thought of tha suggestion.
The general opinion was found to be that
the scoundreis who lately insulted Mile.
Van Zandt richly deserved good American
thTashing, but that any organized effort ia
that direction would only sggravate the
scandal. The belief was also expressed that
the avengers would get into trouble, as there
is DO justice for foreigners in Paris police
tribunals. All decent Psrisians deplore the
infsmy and cowsTdice OF the roughs who
have attacked Mile. Van Zsndt, and de-.
nounce the police for the flabbiness of their
treatment OF the mobs. Every one is asking,
'Why we're not scores of these scoundrels
arrested and made examples Off It is
rumored that the ringlesder of the attacks is
critic to whom Mile. Van Zandt refused 70
pay tribute in the shape of blackmail His
snccess in driving the American singer from

him to fly at even higher game.

EX-SECRETARY THOMPSON.
No Apology Necessary in Regard to the
Political Criticisms on Secretary

WAsHISGToN, March 29.-In regard to the
heated criticism OF Secretary Lamar growing
out of the order closing the Interior Depart

ex Secretary OF the Interior Jacob Thomp-
SOC, the Secretary says: 81 have no apology
to make for my action in this matter. The
possible political criticisms referred to could
never have suggested themselves to my
mind. Mr.. Thompson was Secretary o. the
Interior four years. His successors and my
predecessors thought his portrait worthy of
q most conspicuous place in the office of the
Secretary, among these many Republicans
who filled this Office. IL they regarded his
memory worthy of such honor, could not
do otherwise than further remember the
Office he once filed, and do honor to his
memory exactly as has been the custom of
the department. whenever an exsecretary OF
the Interior has died. / never heard OF an
exception being made and know of no reason
why one should have been made by me. On
the subject of honoriDg the memory Oh the
