A DUELIsT IN ARMoR.
The Way Little Gen. Mawry Took Up
for Young Woman and Won.

Minneapolis Trlbune.
Gen. Mawry, who has just been appointed
United States minister to Bogota, is a little
bit Of fellow who does not look as though
he would make such headway In fight
similar to that which caused the removal of
Minister Jacobs few days ago, and yet
Mawry has the reputation Of being one Of
the grittiest and bravest men that the south
ever produced. / heard n good story Of
him the other day which will serve to illus
trate this point. 1t seems that great
many years ago, when he was young man,
Mawry was In Alabama, and among his
friends numbered a very wealthy family
named Hunt A dapper little Frenchman,
who represented himself as nobleman,
was very attentive to one Of the young
ladies Of the family, and treated her very
shamefully. He was an unprincipled
scoundrel, and his action was due TO his
belief that he could not be called to account
for any of his trangressons from the path
OF rectltude.
When Mawry heard OF his treatment of
the girl he at once set out as her champion
and challenged the Frenchman to duel
The challenge was accepted, although 1t
was not known to the friends who repre-
sented HIM or to the Frenchman himself
that Mawry was dead shot. Revolvers
were chosen. The belligerents fired three
times without perceptible effect on either
side. The seconds asked Gen. Mawry II he
was not satisfied. lie replied: "No; am
not, and | will fetch him this time" Again
they faced each other, and once more the
pistols were raised and the bullets whistled
through the air.
The Frenchman fell, the bullet having
entered his mouth and passed through the
back of his head. He was examined by the
surgeon, when II was found that under his
vest be wore metal plate, upon which was
plainly the indentation Of the three shots
which Mawry had previously fired, all of
which were within half an inch Of his heart.

FORTY KNOTS AN HOUR.
An Interesting Subject of Discussion In
England and America.


London Public OpInion.l
The idea that 1t is possible to propel ships
at the rate of forty knots an hour, or at some
speed much higher than exists at present,
is being discussed both In this country and
IN America. Prof. Thurston, of the Sbley
College, has recently taken up the subject
and concludes that II Is possible. The rea-
soning OF those who hold that forty.seven
miles an hour is an attainable speed is based
from beginning TO end on what is done in
torpedo boats; but II by no means follows
that what is possible on small scale Is
equally possible on large scale. II would
be necessary, in order to secure success, to
augment not only the dimension OF the
moving parts, but the strength OF the mate
rials of which they are made without aug
menting their weight in like maSner, in a
way which Is not practicable. So far as can
he seen the limit has been very nearly
reached at present in such ships as the
Oregon and the America, II the power
acquired augmented In any reasonable ratio
with the speed, then great advances would
be practicable. Yet, even II doubling the
power doubled the speed, 1t is not easy TO
see how double her present speed could be
got into the America. This vessel has a
displacement Of q, 500 tons, and engines In
dlcatlng 5000 horses. In smooth water she
makes when driven nearly twenty knots;
but, unfortunately, to double her speed
would require not less than eight multiplied
by 1900, equals 720O0 horse power at least
probably $4,000 Is nearer the mark-and
this is quite out OF the question. The only
hope OF success must be sought in the dis
covery or invention Of some type of engine
which will have no reciprocatlug parts-a
rotary engine, In fact, which will permit an
extravagantly high piston speed to be
adopted, and even then the chance that
such a speed could be made paying speed
is extremely problematical.

THE HOSTILE ApAcuEs.
IL Has Been Decided to Remove Them
From Arizona.

From Arizona.
There Is no longer any reasonable doubt
but that the government has fully decided
to permanently remove, from the territory
Of Arizona, those members Of the Chihua-
huu aud Warm Spring bands Of Apaches
now on the San Carlos reservation. The
only important question not yet decided is
said TO be where shall they be located.
This question, which is regarded rs a very
important one, has received earnest and
thoughtful consideration, and there now
seems to be probability that they will be
placed on the Fort Marion military reserva-
tion at st. Augustine, Fla, where Chlhua-
hua and his band are now quartered. The
smallness of this reservation is, however,
regarded as a serious fault, and some other
less Objectionable may yet be selected.
IL is stated that the detention at Fort
Leavenworth, Kan, Of Chief Chatto aud

to their reservation from visit to Wash.
ington, and who as well as Geronimo and
his band Of renegades belong to the Chiri-
cahuas, was ordered as precaution against
their anticipated bitter opposition to the
scheme Of removal. II is also stated that
the President has given his willing consent
to the change aud has placed the details In
the hands OF Secretary Lamar and Gen.
Sheridan, and that he warmly approves OF
the vigorous policy Of Gen. Miles aud be-
lieves that the peace Of the southwest de.
mands that the hostiles should be pursued

A NEW NAVY IN FIVE YEARS.
Modern Vessels with Improved and
Effective Guns.

In the next five years there will be q com.
pletc revolution in the floating property of
the navy. The outlook is that within that
time there will be an entirely new navy
with modern steel guns. 1t has been the
cry since the war that the navy was top
heavy, there being too many officers for the
number Of vessels. Naval officers Of q
practical turn Of mind say that this state of
things will soon be reversed. 1t will be the
vessels that are too many and the officers
toe few. Besides the new vessels will he of
a type that none of the present officers un-
derstand. The old officers have passed the
age when new ideas can be taken. The
only source from which officers for the new
navy can be drawn is young men, aud In
order to render these capable and efficient
officers Of modern steel vessels It will be
necessary to give them an extended course
of instruction In the management of such
vessels. The old officers are rcconciled to
the fact that these young officers will have
to be depended on for commands In the
future and think that preparations should
be commenced at once to iit them for the
important duties soon to be imposed upon
