A DUEL IN CANADA.
A Journalist and a Machine Agent
Fight with Pistols In a Wood.

OTTAWA, Ont, Dec. 20.-The first duel
fought In Canada in many years occurred
here at IL O'Clock last night. The principals
were Hon. John L. White, an old time Cana
dian journalist and poet editor of a weekly
paper called the Investigator, and j. Hanra-
han, machine agent whom White had ag-
grleyed and whom he therefore challenged.
The duel was fought in a small wood on the
outskirts of the city.
Promptly atthe hour White appeared at
tended by his second, L. III. Russell, city ed
itor of the Daily Citizen. Snow was silent
ly falling through the midnight air and the
ground was covered to the depth of foot
Hanrahan was early in advance and took
things very coolly, but the sang froid of Ed
ltor White surpassed anything ever yet seen.
Oyertures looking toward patching up Of
the difficulty were made, but were Of no
avail. His honor" White said, chad been
wounded to the quiIk, and nothing short of
an appeal to the god of battles would salts
IN The ground was therefore at once paced
out, and the men placed in position at 10 pa
ees, with their backs turned to each other.
The men fought with No. 80 calibre revOl-
vers. At the word 'sfre" the two pistols
rang out simultaneously. The effect was nil
White got ahead with second shot and the
machine man fell. At once his second and
the doctor ran out to the wounded man, and
it was announced to the victor that his enc
my was struck in the groin. He then ex-
pressed satisfaction with the result and left
the field in a hurry, his honor avenged and
his battle safe.
The wounded man was taken to the hos
pltal and he is said to be doing we'll today,
his wound not being dangerous.
White Is understood TO have skipped to the
States. The police are on the lookout for
him.

DOWNS AGAIN.
He Sues the sowdoin Square Society
for SO, 900.

:, BosroN, Dec. 2O.-In the Superior Civil
Court today was begun the trial of the suit
Of Rev. w. w. Downs VS.. the Bowdoin
Square Baptist Church Society, for $1,000
January J., 1887, with interest. General But
Ter, John A. Coffey and S. f. Keyes appeared
tor Downs, and r. ID. Smith and H. w.
Chaplain represented the Society. The
opening was delayed until o'clock by the
detention of Judge Aldrich, but at that
hour Mr.. Keyes opened for the plaintiff by
reading the bill of complaint.
zen. Butler claimed that by the statute of
1910 the church and ministry were formed.
ana In 1880 Downs was appointed pastor. 1t
Is claimed that under the establishment Of
MS probatlon as pastor he was duly installed,
ana that his salary, which was originally
$500, was increased to $1,000. In 1886 he
was notified that his services were no longer
required and he was discharged. General
butter toucned upon various points in the
case and said: If my friends desire to 20
into the question about Downs's immortality
am ready to accompany them to the far
thest possible end, and while don't seek it
| don't avoid it. Before an intelligent and
impartial Judge should be glad to present
my case. The accusations are of very gross
immortality. The reply will be of the gross
est public indeeeneies that ever were pre-
sented in court Of justice. But don't, as
say again, desire to begin this question. l
hope it will come up, because If It does am
ready"
Gen. Butler then called for the records of
the society for 1880, to which the defendants'
counsel replied that there were none, and
that the books then lying upon the table
were all the records of the society known to
counsel.
Then" said Gen. Butler, by rule, sir,
| will produce copies If you won't produce
the original"
Mr.. Downs then took the stand and his
counsel sought to show By means of pam
phielS anu copies of the church by FLAWS m =
church.
Defendants counsel objected to this mode
OF procedure. and little spat ensued be-
tween counsel.
Upon the court remarking that the only
way was to produce what books the society
had, Lawyer Smith placed upon the rail two
big record books, saying: "These are all the
books we have, and l understand they con-
tain the records of 1880. These books are
said to have been kept by clerk employed
BY the Bowdoin Square Society. We deny
this. These alleged records are entirely
irregular"
Gen. Butler, however, convinced the court
to the contrary, and they were admitted
The court then adjourned until tomorrow
morning

QUAIL ON THE CAPE.
A Flock Seen at the Two Lights
The English sparrow's Enemy.

BowERY BEACH. Dec. 20.
To the Editor Of the Press:
In the PRESS Of the 18th inst. noticed an
item TO the effect that 6fty-seyen quail had
recently been brought to the State and sent
to the Cape Elizabeth winter quarters" 1
am not informed as to what Is meant by the
above named quarters. but on Saturday last
bevy of some ~ or Is large quail, birds
that have never seen here before, were
making themselves very much at home,
feeding on the Two Lights" grounds and
in the adjoining fields.
There appeared TO be more OF the same
birds In the adjacent woods. Several shots
were fired at them, but so far as | can learn
without killing any. Were the birds men
toned in the PRESS liberated within the
limits Of Cape Elizabeth, or were they con-
fined in some building or enclosure; and II
the latter was the fact, have they all or any
portion Of them escaped?
The game laws Of the State do not protect
quail from being shot until January 1st, and
II these are escaped birds, l judge that
Dy that date they viii about all have become
victims Of the shot gun.
The bird alluded TO recently In the PRESS
as preying upon the English sparrow Is the
shrike mot shripel or butcher bird" IL is
more common In this vicinity now than ever
before. The writer shot a fine specimen one
day last week: The bird Is nearly as large
as a robin which 1t resembles in form and
manner Of flight. 1t has a short hooked bill
and its color Is slate. with black wings and
tail feathers. The sparrow, no matter Of what
nationality, seems 10 be his favorite prey
but inasmueh as he only butchers" to pro-
vide himself with necessary food, the En-
glish pest Is In no danger Of immediate exter-
mination from this source. M.
I'VE are informed that several bevies Of
quail were liberated last spring and the birds
seen at the Two Lights probably came from
these bevies

Socialists on Intennperance Among
Working Men.

CHICAGO, Dec. 20.-The socialists held a
meeting yesterday afternoon. A letter to
the Women's Christian Temperance Union
and the clergy of Chicago from the working
men in mass meeting assembled was read, in
which was denied the charge that the work.
ing men OF this country were specially in
temperate. Complaints of discrimination in
the treatment of ''wine befuddled .clubmen''
and 'beery working men" were made, and it
Is claimed that of all the numerous socialist
balls and plcnics, no person had yet been
arrested. THAT intemperance exists among
us, we must acknowledge. though we claim
and can prove, that it is the resalt and not
the cause Of environment and the associa-
tions that we are compelled to endure"
IL Is stated that the principal causes Of in
temperance are hereditary, social customs
and industrial conditions and make what
they claim to be an adequate explanation.
The cure OF intemperance must begin with
the improvement of the social and industrial
workers. 1t is useless, it is illogical to talk
OF cure that begins anywhere else and ask
ed that money wasted upon the heathen''
be devoted to the establishment of baths
gymnasiums, reading rooms and music halls,
In the discussion which followed the estab
lishment of coffee houses was advocated
and the statement was that the clubs in the
city consumed more liquor and did more
gambling than the pool men and Gambling
houses combined. The paper was adonted
as the sense Of the assembly.

out $50 sail, comprising me-
"cIobe" Trade Mark for Canned
Goods.

pittsburgh Commercial Gazette.l
We are informed tnat quite a number Of
our leading wholesale grocery houses have
been misled this season, and, entirely with
ont intention on their part, made infringers
Of this, the oldest trademark for canned
goods in the world. IL appears that some
time ago the trade was approached with Of
fers Of "Globe" canned sweet corn at price
shaded from the regular market rate As ID
turned out, all such corn bore the Globe
trademark, which Is registered by Gen. c.
p. Mattocks, of Portland. Me-, who has
never licensed any concern TO use IL, except
the Winslow Packing Company Of Portland,
Of which Gen. Mattoeks is president. That
gentleman was not long in discovering that
his rights were being infringed. and he at
once placed his interests in the hands q
Messrs. Bakewell Il Kerr, counselors. Of this
city, with tn . direction not to embarrass any
house whom his counsel might believe. had
innocently used the unauthorized trademark.
The settlement Of all these cases was highly
creditable to both parties, Gen. Mattoeks ad-
herring to and reiterating his instructions to
his legal representatives to by no means seek
damages from those who were lnfringers by
reason Of miSinformation only, although
there is no doubt but that he might have col
leeted quite sum In damages, as in cases OF
this kind the intent Of the infringer Is not
taken into account; but pursue all willful
infringers to the fullest extent Of the law.
Not to be out-done in fair dealing, our mer-
chants at once, as soon as the proof Of Gen.
Mattocks was produced, signed agreements
not to handle any canned sweet corn bearing
the Globe" except that manufactured by
Gen. Mattocks, or by his licensees, the Wins
low Packing Company. We think 1t will bo
a long time before our merchants are found
In this box again.

a SENSATIONAL DIVORCE CASE.
Mrs. Louella M. Coodell VS.. Rev.
Charles L. CoodeII.

PROVIDENCE. Dec. 20.-The divorcee case
OF Louella M. Goodell against Rev. Charles
l.. Goodell came up in the Supreme Court
this morning and the proceedings which
were sensational in high degree, were at
tended by crowd Of women without pre-
cedept In cases Of this nature in this State.
The Chief Justice in opening the court said
the testimony was likely to be Of character
dlstasteful to ladies, and intimated that,
egress from the room was as free as the in
gress had been, but not a woman moved.
The testimony for the petitioner was practi-
eally the same as that introduced last We'd
nesday in the divorce suit Of Theodore w.
Foster against his wife, and tended TO impli-
eateRev. Mr.. Goodell in criminal relations with
Mrs. Foster at her residence in this city, and
at their summer home at Bristol. The testi-
mony was submitted IN detail to GOodelPs
frequent calls at Fosters house where he
was received In a darkened parlOr, the door
Of which was frequently locked, regarding
Mrs. Fosters conduct prior to and subse-
quent to these meetings, to her visits at his
Goodells house during Mrs. Gsodell's ab-
sence, and to walks In the woods and other
proceedings of questionable character at
Bristol. A determined effort was made by
Counsellor Ripley for Go0dell to shake the
testimony Of Charles Platt, q lad Of Bristol
who had testified TO seeing GOOdell and Mrs
Foster in criminal relations. The interest In
today's proceedings, however, centered in
the defence which has begun late this after
noon.
Mr.. Riply in the opening case said: The
defence intended to show, deliberate con-
splracy between Foster and Mrs. G0odell,
and that Goodell was at Bristol but twice,
once with the superintendent of schools OF
thislclty and once with his wife. We are
obliged, Said Ripley, to go further in this
case and attack the character of his wife.
In self defence Mr.. Goodell must show rela-
tlons between Mr.. Foster and Mrs. GoodeIl,
and between her and Iothers. We deny the
charges of any criT.e between Goodell and
Mrs. Foster and charge that there was such
between Mrs. Goodell and Mr.. Foster
Rev. Charles l.. Goodell, the defendant.
then took the stand and emphatieally denied
all charges of immortality. and testified to al
legged inhdelity on the part of his wife with
Foster. The defence in assailing Mrs.
Goodelps character put in evidence a letter
from Mrs. Goodell, written from Dudley,
Mass, July s. 1885. to Miss Idle Phillips OF
this city, contained allusion 10 "Theo,J Mr.
Foster, coming to see her. This was not
read in full. Another letter postmarked
Dudley, Mass, January q, 1886. was read In
full containing references TO "Theo." Other
letters were read and put In evidence. The
letters detailed round of gaieties in which
the writer was indulging.

On the question of introducing the study
of English literature side by side with the
classics at oxford. Mr. Gladstone expresses
himself as utterly deploring whatever tends
to displace classical education for those in
any way capable of receiving it, and strong
ly disappearing all efforts in that direction. :"
John Bright, on the other hand, declares
that ''the study of the ancient languages is
not now essential to education so far as the
acquisition of knowledge is concerned; and
that as the study of the best writers of Eng
lish must be more effective in creating and
sustaining what we may term classic Eng
lish than the study Of any foreign or dead
language can be, it seems to follow that the
classics of the modern world are, from an
educational point of view, an equivalent for
the Greek and Roman classics. The knowl-
edge of the ancient languages is mainly a
luxury" However, the great orator and
statesman adds, Il do not feel competent to
fully discuss the question. 1 am one Of the
unearned. If my answer seems shallow
and unworthy, i am afraid It will add to the
proofs of the insuficlency of an education In
which classical learning has not been includ-
ed"
