WHY THEY DID NOT FIGHT.
n Cocktail and Caution Prevent the
Shedding of Blood.
Iron, he BaItimore American.

From the Baltimore american.
1t was raining very hard at O'Clock
Saturday morning. People who were out
at that time say the rain came down in
sheets. Yet this was the hour appointed
for meeting between two young men,
who had made up their minds that an in
suit had been offered, and that
resort to the code was the
only way to settle the matter. They
had been excellent friends for many a
year, and Saturday night they engaged
in little game of seven-up. The game
had been going on for some time when a
misunderstanding arose. Hard words
were spoken. One called the other liar
and repeated the assertion several
times, emphasizing it in particularly
strong language. The result was an APP
peal fer friends. Each selected his
second. The seconds had a consultation
and arranged for a meeting at a we'll
known hosiery on the Pimlico road, a
few miles from the city. The distance
was to be fifteen PAGES, pistols 10 be
used. 1t was by this time
nearly midnight, and as all parties
were down town, it was rather difficult
task to get the pistols. They were bor-
rowed finally, however, and villainous-
looking pair they were, too. They were
made to kill people with. When all pre-
limInaries had been ARRANGED the princi-
pals, each with his second, retired to
rest. They went to different hotels, one
couple near the centre of the city and
the other in the West End. About
4:3O in the morning the party in
the West End hotel arose and dressed,
packed away their pistol, and taking their
hack, which they had ordered the night
before, drove post haste to the place APP
pointed for the meeting. 1t was raining
in torrents, but they managed to rouse up
the proprietor of the house. They found that
the other party had not arrived. Six O'Clock
struck, and they were not yet in sight.
They waited for about 10 minutes, when
they came to the conclusion that the 9th
ers were not coming, and decided to re-
turn TO town. They started back to town,
and about 300 yards from the place they
met the others in a carriage on their
way out. No greetings were eX-
changed. The returning party kept
on, and got back in town in time
for breakfast. The others went out to the
place, sampled a cocktail or two and re-
turned. Their failure to reach the place
in time was due to their precaution to
find out whether the other party was
going. From their down town hotel they
drove to the West End hotel and in
quired if the parties had gone. They
found they had gone, and started
after Thorn. Their team was but
a poor one, and in this way they lost con-
siderable time. As the result, they did
not reach the meeting place until the
others had left. 1t was no joking matter
on either side, but serious earnest. Had
they met, as both intended, at 10 PAGES,
with such weapons as those with which
they were provided, blood would certainly
have been spilled.

STRUCK BY A WATERsPOUT.
The Bark "CeyIODr Partially nismasted
and Her Mate Killed.
From the P6i1adel1hia Record.

From the P6tIddelDdia Record.
Capt. Newman, of the German bark
Ceylon, appeared at the Maritime Ex-
change in this city Saturday with a ten
inch adhesive plaster on his temples and
the top of his head. His vessel had been
struck by waterspout, his brother, the
mate, killed and the bark almost dis
masted. The Ceylon arrived with asphalt
tum and empty petroleum barrels from
Antwerp, and the log shows that the
waterspout struck her on April 10, IN lati-
tude 81 degrees, longitude II degrees.
Cant. Newman says that it was the most
awful scene he ever witnessed at sea.
The first warning OF the approaching
danger was the appearance of small
cloud like an ordinary rain-clOud. The
atmosphere became close and oppressive,
and for a little while there was a dead
calm. All sails were at once furled and
mt aWaV. Almost as soon as this was
completed a cold wind came ripping over
the water, darkness set in, and in a min
ute the waterspOut, like a torrent hurled
by a whirlwind, struck the bark with a
noise like the crash of battery of artll-
lerv. The vessel was driven before this
frightful power as a straw is taken along
by mountain freshet. She was thrown
on her beam ends, and her lower guards
were halt submerged in the sea, now run
ming like mad before the trightful tempest.
The main and miZzentOpmast came down
with crash, instantly killing Capt. New
mans brother, the mate, and hurting the
Captain himself seBseess TO the deck.
When he recovered the waterspOut had
spent it's force and the vessel had righted.
His wounds were ehastly-lOoking, but not
fatal. A heavy block had inflicted a Sc
we're scalp wound on the top of his head
and a broken spar had cut open his tenn
ples. Wonderful to relate, the vessels
hull was unhurt and the cargo safe, so
that she arrived in port but a few days
overdue, without further mishap. This
is one Of the few instances on record in
which a vessel ever lived after having
been in contact with a waterproof.
Capt. Newman is now under medical
{ eatment.

Tea Cultivation in ItsIx.
From, the London Times.


The French Consul at Naples gives an
interesting account in his last report OF
the attempts which have been made TO ac-
climatic the tea plant in Italy. The first
ia said to have been made by the English
during their occupation of Sicily at the
beginning of the century, when the plant
reached a height Of six feet in the open
air. There is 10 proof, however, that any
crop was obtained, and no further attempt
seems to have been made until 1871. when
some seeds were sOwn at Caltanisetta,
which is in much the same latitude as
JamaSciOro Gin Japan J, from which place
they were brought. The seeds never
sprOuted, and fresh trial made in 1915
with another another variety, the Thea
SlRensiS, also proved failure. The gov
ernment however, which had taken up
the question, was not discouraged, and,
after weighing the various opinions which
it had elected, made several fresh planta-
tons of Thea SiBeaSiS in the zone COM
prised between Florence, Naples and
Jelly. These plantations also came to
nothing, but Sig. d'AmicO, a landed pro-
prietOr in the province Of Messina, was
able to exhibit, at the agricultural show
held at Messina in 1882, more than 100
plants Of the Thea SiReRSjS three years
Old, which had been grown in the open
air. Prof. Beccari, too, who has been to
India for the purpose of investigating the
growth Of tea, is of opinion that there is
no reason why il should not succeed in
Italy if the plants and the seed are brought
from climate similar to that Of the pen
lnsuia, for the tact Of its growing in the
open air alone the Riviera, upon the shores
OF LagO MaggiOre and at Florence proves
mat il is TO a certain extent a hardy plant
II IT has not been more generally grown
IN Italy hitherto this is, Prof. Beccari
thinks, because the mode of cultivation
has been all wrong The Italians have
thought that the plant wanted shade,
whereas In India and China it is grown in
very open ground and upon a soil which
contains large proportion OF sand and
oxide OF iron. He recommends. therefore,
mat 1t should be planted in land not too
ury, and in soil preserving enough mois-
lure to aliment the plants, such as the
e,uNe-growing fields Of the Riviera, the
Mareinma and Southern Italy, and that
,ne plants should be brought from the
oldest provinces Of Japan. The Italian
hinister OF Agriculture has determined
70 act upon Prof. Beccarps report, and
mas already sent a large order 70 Japan,
Sesldes buying n number Of plants from
lahded proprietor at PallanZa, in the prov
lnce OF NOVara, who has met with fair
amount Of success In his experiments,

Cranmer's Old Chain Bible at Canterbury
Fro1n " 81. Janes 49,.

NFOIft bft6 OF OONtes Uusetbos
At Canterbury Cathedral the old chain
Bible was replaced in the position it orig
inally occupied upon what is known as
Cranmer's desk, in the northeast aisle of
the cathedral. Upon receiving the Bible
from Mr.. Wetherelt, by whom it has
been carefully renovated, the Bishop of
Dover said thatit gave him great pleasure
to replace the volume in the position in
which it was chained in the reign of
Queen Elizabeth, at the time when Bibles
of the same edition were placed in cathe-
drals and deans houses throughout the
country. The event in which they were
then engaged was one that would recall
to their minds the commencement of one
great era in the history of Christianity,
inasmuch as the position IN which he bad
just replaced that volume was undOubt-
edly constructed in the reign of Henry
VIII, and was the place from which the
first English Bible was read in the Eng
Ilsh church for the benefit alike of the
clergy and lalty. The Dean of Canter-
bury and Archdeacon Harrison also
spoke.

MYSTERIOUS "BOCK" BEER.
What 1t is and why 1t Bakes MANS
Head spin.
From the PhilaaelDhta Net0s.

From the Phil1delDhtd Mems.
The "BOck" beer season has arrived.
1t has been forced this year, as it has
been annually for some time past. In the
days before "improved" processes in the
manufacture Of lager beer were intro
duced, the season for ''bock" opened about
the middle of May. Since then the com
petition of brewers has become so great
that each year some one puts out this
brewing a little earlier thar the last, and
the others Immediately follow suit. Com
paratively few of the bihulous who drink
il know aught Of the difference between
it and lager, except from experience Of
its effects.
Book is the product Of a special brew
ing, which Is made in January. The pro-
cess Of its manufacture does not differ
from that Of lager beer in the slightest.
The difference is made up principally in
the different proportions Of the ingredi-
ents and the difference In time which
elapses between the brewing and placing
on the market. The brewers call IL a
"four.months' brewing" but the time is
gradually shortening. Book IS "heavier
In body;" this is the result OF using a
larger proportion Of malt, the alcohol
producing element. The intoxicating
effect is thus made at least one-hali great
err. 10 is darker i'm color; this is caused
by burning the malt. IL 10 not known
that this produces any other effect than
that Of deepening the color.
The knowledge of the origin Of this spe-
cial brewing and Of its name 10 lost even
10 tradition All stories which pretend to
solve the mystery are looked upon by
modern brewers as mere theories, the
connections Of fertile imagination. The
cyclopedias know IL not and It's dev0ties
care naught. The fact that II Is here and
that for two weeks they can worship
at its shrine supplants the inefable plea
sures Of anticipation with the realization
Of the usual morning after.efects. Its
reign Is short, but while the tap flows IL
rules.
