AN IMAGINARY DUEL.
A Stranger on a Spree Tells Fairy
Tale at Augusta.

Tale at Augusta.
AUGUSTA, GA, Dec. 9.-Augusta has
been all agog to-day over reported duel.at
Sand Bar Ferry. Chief Twiggs received
advice from Balesburg last night that
parties were en- route here to fight a duel.
To-day young man attired in a neat fit
ting black suit and wearing a conspicuous
broad brimmed felt hat attracted q great
deal of attention by talking of the code
duello and showing to crowds ragged hole
through his hat. He admitted confidentiallv
to the NEWS correspondent that he had
fought a duel and was very sorry he had
wounded his opponent His name is Dr. A
F. Dirlin He says he is from Balti-
more, and was at the time I'M
der the influence of liquor.
FOUR SHOTS HEARD.
Parties up from the ferry say that they
heard four shots, and the ferryman saws he
saw carriage drive off. The theory is.
that Durlin. who has been on prolonged
drunk, is suffering from delirium tremens
He came to the city to 60 on a hunt with
some friends and got the idea in his head
that he had a duel to fight. He
employed a carriage and drove to
the ferry and came back IN a few
minutes with hole in his hat, saying that
he had plugged his man. He showed his
pistol several times and made visitors in
the hotel very uncomfortable. He was ar
rested when, after having smashed a
window in quincy, he was trying to shoot
the driver. He was jailed on a charge of
carrying concealed weapons. When the
fumes were wearing off his befogged brain
he admitted that the whole affair was a

A Refinery TO Close on Account of the
Seizure.
SAN FRANCISCO, Cal, Dec. 9.-Audrew
Welch, the President of the American Re-
filming Company, said to-day that owing to
the action of the customs authorities in
holding the cargo of sugar which arrived
here from Java. on the steamer West
Meath, the refinery would have to close
Monday, as there was no other
stock to work on. He estimates that the
employees will lose $4,000 in wages. Mr.
WEIGH says he knows nothing of any fraud
ulent attempt to have the sugar admitted
at a low rate Of duty, and declares that it
was imported in the regular way.

Guests at O'Clock tea must fauoy them

ceremonies round witches caidron. The
shades are drawn but gas is tabooed and
the candles do not burn very high. In the
semi-obscurity one tiptoes from group TO
group waiting for the mysterious revels to
begin. The logs in the fireplace throw out
a fltful blaze casting all manner of strange
lights and shadows. BY and by they burn
down and only handful of red coal is left
Then voices drop almost to whispers and
the only light seems to be shed by the blue
flame Of alcohol in the tea-stand over which
my lady's kettle hangs simme:ing. 1t is
wierd, almost ghostly, apd the curious thing
is that nobody seems TO know what it is
for. Somebody says that somebody else came
home from the couatry with a bruise on
her forehead from fall received while rid
ing and refused to light up until her face
was well. Society caught the gloomy in
lection, and it is time some impetus was
given the other way.

Exciting Causes of Malaria.

:
The circumstances under which malaria
prevails as local disease though sufh-
GENTLY marked are yet in some degree
complicated and perplexing. 1t is certain
that the exciting cause Of the disease Is
something present in invisible efhuvia
from the surface of the earth. It seems
almost as certain that decomposing or
decomposed vegetable matter is the source
Of the infection; yet the appearance OF
malaria in such q place as the rock OF
Gibralter, which Is characterized by an en-
tire absence of vegetation, presents an ap-
parent exception which prevents as from
definitely deciding that vegetable matter
alone can produce the malarial Infection:
Moisture is necessary to produce the
poison; yet moisture alone, or ever with
the necessary degree of heat, is not sum-
Gent; on the contrary It appears that IL
only the soil whence malarial ef1uvia have
arisen could be kept permanently soaked
with moisture there would be no in
lection. ,
The soil must first be for a while sod
den with moisture, then dried, before the
invisible effiuvia-the marsh miasma-
become DANGEROUS. The heat necessary
to produce the poison must be somewhat
greater than 60 degs. and somewhat less
than so degs.; between these limits, but
not outside them, heat does its poison
generating work. We have in these con-
ditions alone a certain power Of induenc-
ing malaria, as has been shown by re-
peated examples.-Richard A. Proctor In
Inter Ocean.

THE WAY REFORMS GROW.

From A. d. until the present no
great reform has come through the
medium Of existing organizations
But In every instance new organi-
zation suited to the requirements of
the time has been formed to carry the
momement on to success.
Christ came preaching to the "lost
sheep of the house Of Israel" his
teaching and preaching was confined
to the Jewish people. It was from
their synagogues he taught. It was
In the Jewish temple he spoke. But
the Jewish church was hopelessly
corrupt. The immortal life giving
truths of Christianity could not be
handed down to, succeeding genera
tions when. every beam ofits light CIV
ing truth served to show the rottness
and corruption of the medium through
which it came. A new organization
was necessary and for the advance
ment of his purposes God raised up
the Christian church.
This in time became corrupt and
the effort to reform it resulted in a
new organization through which
came the reformation. The Weseleys
attempting to reform the abuses that
had crept into the English church
failed but the pure truths Of Christi
anity flowed on with accelerated speed
through the organization that result
ted as the failure Of their plans as at
flrst conceived.
When the time clock Of Almighty
had struck the hour for the freedom
of four million slaves a new party was
found to be q necessity. For forty
years slavery had been thorn in
the flesh ofthe old parties but in 1910
the Shareholders were as secure In the
possession Of their human chattles
as ever before. In that year a new
organizat ion was born to bear on the
increasing purpose that runs through
the ages. The growth OF the principles
which 1t championed shook this laid
from the Atlantic to the Pacific.
Shook the shackles from the limbs
OF human chattels--shook the life
out of the old parties. <,.,,,;
History repeats itself. In the march
of human progress the hour las
struck tor the overthrow OF what OUT
side OF hell Is the devils most formi-
dable stronghold. The beacon light
of prohibition reveals over against Che
unspeakable woes Of rum the old
parties bartering those victims; Ito
the devil for power. These parties
are traitors to the welfare of this Land
even as the organizations named
were traitors to the truths that should
have flowed through them for the
blessing of succeeding generations.
The new wine of prohibition cannot
be put into bottles of the old parties.
The mighty strength OF this new
heaven born principle would burst
their old wine skins into a thousand
pieces.

The Darwin Theory I'm Commerce.

This. application of Darwin's great
theory to commercial competition Is more
than parable. It In the scientific expla-
nation of causes which have wrecked
civilization In the past and may wreck
them in the future. The struggle must
20 on while men are impelled by the de-
sire for greater profusion of what sus-
tains life or makes 1t happier. 1t often
has been, and often is, carried ON by the
sword, but important victories may be
won, and disastrous defeats sustained, by
more peaceful means.
The discovery of the passage round the
Cape transferred the trade Of the east
from the Mediterranean to London and
Amsterdam, and most merchants in the
city affirm that the cutting OF the Suez
canal has once more deprived England OF
the advantage Of situation. The COM
mercial success Of Switzerland, however,
proves that national Characteristics are at
least as important as geographical posi-.
ton, and it is well from time to time to
ask il we are doing all that in us lies te
train those who shall follow us to main
tain what our predecessors have won. :

A traveler in Norway says that the
horses in that country have a very
sensible way of taking their food,
which perhaps might be benefic'aily
followed here. They have a bucket
of water put down beside their allow
ance of hay. It is interesting to see
with what relish they take q sip OF
the one and mouthful of the other
alternately, sometimes only moisten-
ing their mouths, as a rational being
would dc while eating dinner of
such dry foo1. A broken-winded
horse is scarcely ever seen in Norway,
and the question is ifthe mode OF feed
ing has not something to do with the
preservation of the animals respira-
tory organs.
