in his life wrought none to the mind of the
unfortunate mOnomaniac, and her plea for
an interview was advanced with the same
regularity as before. Finally Mr.. Gates
decided to try heroic measures. BY APP
pointment she came to his home for an in
tervew, and found there assembled, besides
his wife, the deacons and their wives and
several prominent members of the church,
who had gathered at the minister's request.
The young woman requested private in
terview, whereupon Mr.. Gates made some
plain statements and was joined in them
by the members of the church then present
She listened passively, but the advice was
of no avail. 1t was decided to request her
to leave the church. with letters of recon-
mendation to another, which was done.
This, it seemed. had the desired effect and
she was seen no more for some time.
Last Sunday she entered the church, I'M
noticed by the usherS, and took front pew
During the sermon she riveted her
eyes, with the old smile, upon the
pastors face, and this attracted the
attention of the ushers, who quietly
gathered near her. When the benedicton
was pronounced, she at once started toward
the pulpit and would doubtless have pre-
ferred the old request. for an interview. had
the ushers not seized her. She struggled
tiercely, but fruitlessly, and was borne from
the church. The affair of course created a
breeze and was the means OF having her
parents take charge of the demented girl.
1t is sad affair throughout. Rev. Gates
has conducted himself in the matter so as to
win the highest regard of all, not only of
his church, but others to whom the facts
became known. Inasmuch as the affair
was incorrectly talked about, it was deemed
best to set the matter at rest by straight
and simple statement. The name of the
unfortunate girl is suppressed, for reasons

REASON DETHRON BY LOVE.
Case OF Toman's Infatuation and
O Minister'S FOrbearance.

A singular incident occurred last Sunday
morning in the Central Baptist church. the
fashionable house of worship at the corner
of Grant street and Fourth avenue south,
the story attached to it being singular case
of young woman's romantic attachment
and minister's kindness and forbearance.
Rev. Fred T. Gates is the pastor of the
church, deservedly popular everywhere and
especially beloved and respected by his
flock; and the story is told to quiet the
tongue of rumor, though against the wishes
of all concerned, as it shows the Christian
kindness of true minister of God in deal
ing with delicate matter concerning him.
self as man. Some four or five years ago
a young woman joined the church and be-
came soon noted for her religious zeal and
her energy in the affairs of the church. 1t
became known soon afterward that her
mind was slightly affected on one subject
alone, and that she regarded her pastor with
feelings warmer than commonly exist be-
tween minister and member The unhappy
| young lady, unable to conceal her feelings,
MADE them known always in one way,
which was to request an interview. Rev.
Gates accorded her the requested interview,
but she never had anything to say, but after
| the next sermon she would present herself
again. as before. and ask for the interview.
The minister realized that her mind was
affected, and recognized the idea toward
himself that ran through her disordered
brain. and did all in his power to divert her
thoughts and cause a cure. He told her he
was soon to be married; but it was of no
| avail, as her malady grew upon her. and
Sunday invariably brought with it the re-
quest for an Interview. Matters went on

DUEL WITH HARD GLOVES.

Two Giided Youths of the NicoiAe'
Club Seatle a Dispute
"Why. dear me, what is the matter Win
your eye?"
1t was at one of the swell parties given
about the middle of last week. one OF the
gilded youth of the Nicollet CLUB was stand
ing with the fairest of her sex, waiting for
the fourth couple to fill set at lancers.
His eve had peculiar look and his partner
wondered at it, A faint streak of red dis
coIored the eveball while around the socket
WAS a broad dark banda black eye pure
and simple. Early last week in the card
room of the Nicollet club house, two of the
members had an exciting game of casino.
The excitement ended in dispute, and hot
words passed until finally a fight was immi-
nent; then remembering they were gentle
men and in gentlemen's quarters, they
separated and formal cartel was issued.
The challenged party chose hard gloves,
and last Tuesday evening the fight
came off. A party of four gentlemen en-
gagged an upper room at the
Nicollet house and shortly afterward two
more came in. The principals stripped to
their gauZe and under Queensbury rules the
fight began. Both men had some previous
knowledge of the science of ward and
eeunter and two DAYS constant training had
improved them. so the work was not child's
play. Four fve-minute rounds had been
agreed upon, but before the first was ended
both were considerably punished. The
challenger got an eye in mourning almost
at the first blow, while the challenged party
had badly-cut lip, the blood from which
had dyed the gloves deep, ominous red.
The second round gave neither all adyan-
tage but the third was quite sanguinary.
The challenger led off with his right, catch
ing his opponent an under clip. which spun
him around ike a top. only to receive
crushing blow on the bridge of his nose,
as the revolution brought that
organ into sight. The seconds here de-
clared the affair had gone far enough and
prevented any further hostilities. though
the blood OF both had been dashed to boiling
point and each was fairly suffering to swim
in the gore OF the other.
The challenger arose on Wednesday
morning with All eye that looked much the
worse Tor wear. He had an engagement
for party on Thursday, and the persistent
application of raw beef failed to bleach the
dark circle Finally, in his despair he
sought an artist and had the eye painted a
natural color and went to the dance rejoic-
ing. a little face powder jodiciouSly dis
tributed over the paint helped out the illt-
sion. but the bright eyes of his partner dis
covered something wrong and it required a
little short story to divert her suspicious.
