''Tns presence of Col. William Gore at the
Exposition building reminds me Of story
remarked Milwaukee man last evening, as
ne s2zed admiringly at the tall colonefs
whiskers. ut took place some years ago in
Milwaukee, and created a decided sensation
at the time. Fred Burgin, now telegraph
editor of the New York World, then city edi-
tor Of the Sentinel. had become involved in
an unpleassntness with John Gregory. the
city editor of the Evening Journal, aud the
| feeling ran high. One evening Col. Gore was
in the Sentinel Office, aud, on beirg told of
the trouble, said he would settle it.
Calling for pen and ink, the
blood-thirsty colonel made Mr.. Burgin sit
down and write out challenge to mortal
combat, Colts revolvers to be the weapons.
This Mr.. Gore delivered to Mr.. Gregory per-
sonally, and succeeded in frightening that in
dividual very badly. Well, the prelminaries
were all arranged, and the duel was to come
Off the next morning. AS soon as Col Gore
left the Office Gregory packed his valice aid
fed to Chicago, where he remained several
days. The story is now a source of much an.
| noyance to him, and the mere mention of il
| causes him to jump into the air an angry
man."
