Genuine Duel In n Chicago Park-Both
the Participants wounded-Every Thing
= Mystery.
CHICAGO, Dec. 16.--A duel with swords
was fought this morning in Humboldt
Park. A little before seven O'Clock two
closed carriages entered the park through
the south entrance. Each carriage con-
tanned a principal with his second and Q
surgeon. They were driven to tue
western end OF the park, where
they alighted and concealed them
selves behind a clump Of trees. The
arrangement being completed, the princi-
pals each drew a shining saber, and be
contest began. Soon both were wounded.
One rece we'd a sword thrust through the
breast, and his opponent was cut across
the face, and will probably bear the scar
for some time. With this drawing OF
blood the duelists seemed to be sat
isfied, for they quickly put into their
carriages, which were rapidly driven
TO the nearest drug store. There the
wounds were dressed and the duel
its, again in the carriages, were rapidly
driven out of sight. Circumstances point
to the editor OF pharmaceutical Journal
and young medical student as the prin-
cipals. 1t is said the cause of the affair
was q dispute ns to the hand OF a young
lady. A policeman was q distant spec

OGDEN, UTAH, Dec. 49, The Utah problem

Last spring Lester Herrick, q wealthy
bishop In the church, owning a large
amount Of real estate, and residing
In this city, suddenly went West
on trip to the coast. Spring and
summer passed, but Bishop Herrick still
tarried, and as be had four wives it began
to be suspected that, not having the fear
of the Lordn before him, and greatly dread
ing the u 8 Marshal he had ta ken to the
underground" Recently the Bishop re-
turned TO Ogden and at once made prepa-
rations for the removal of his legal wife
and bis household goods to California

complete his arrangements, and he has
now departed for his new home, leaving
behind him three separate families for
whom, however, he has literally provided.
Those Of the church profess to beiiove that
Herrick will return to his old home when
things are more settled, but the facts have
become known that he has left bis property
in the hands OF an agent to be disposed OIL;
