The following correct statement of the
killed and wounded in the fActional fight
near Harlan Court House, Ky, has been re-
cciyed:
Two hours before daylight the Law and
Order Party, hitherto styled the Turner

armed with Winchester rifles and revolvers,
under the leadership Of County Judge Lewis,
left the Court House and made an assault on
the Howard forces. who were in camp at
f. +. Howard's house, one mile from town
The engagement was short, sharp and ter
rife, and not one Of the attacking party was
hurt. One of Howard's side, Millard Dean,
was instantly killed, aud six oilers were
wounded. Among the wounded are Bird
Spurlock, whose injuries are mortal, and
| Robert Napier, whose recovery is not among
| the possibilities. Bird Spu 10 tx was shot in

DESTROYED by ball from = Winchester

MARRYING A TITLE.

The marriage Of Miss Clara Huntington 10
Prince Francis Hatzfeldt took place Tuesday
at the Brompton oratory. In accordance
with Mr.. G. Z. Huntington's desire it wa'
a quiet, unostentatious affair. The marriage
was only announced in Paris last Wednes-
day, and on the day following the Gtldlds
made the following comment on it:
Prince HatzIeldt, well-knowp in Partisan
society, will marry ON the 2Sth OF this
month a rich American, Miss Clara Hunt
ington. The wedding will take place at Lon
don. The announcement of the marriage
will certainly be halle with delight by one
of our most charming demie-mondaincs,
who is a creditor of the Prince for large
amount, which she looks forward TO being
paid at All early date.
The Prince Is socially ostracised in Vienna
and Berlin owing to his dsreputable be
hayior and was expelled from the Russian
Guards and from clubs for failure to pay hi
gambling debts. One of the thousand-and
one stories current about the Prince in Pari
Is that he borrowed 100000 there to carry
on his suit for Miss Huntington and to fol
low her to AK when she went there with
Mrs. Sherwood. Mrs. Sherwood, it is said
was advised by friends as to Hatzfeldt
record.

CUT OFF FINGERS.
DREADFUL DUE. BETWEEN A MEXICAN AND

DREADFUL DUE BETWEEN MEXICAN AND
IsDIAs-rHE REDsKIS SHOT.
The particulars of a very singular duel, 'e-
Gently fought in Toas county, New Mexico,
are just coming to light.
An Indian settler named Waken stee, and
Juan Versga, wealthy Mexican cattleman,
repaired TO a spot about six miles from
Toas just at break of day to settle an old
grudge. The We pons were butcher-knives,
and by the luethoOd of lighting agreed upon
each man was 10 submit his hand TO his
opponent and have one finger cut off, the
cutting to be done alternately and the man
who first evinced signs Of pain To be stabbed
TO the heart.
The Indian, by toss, secured the first cut
and, deliberately taking the hand of his en-.
| emy, with quick stroke severed his fore
finger. The Mexican never uttered sound.
The Indian reached out his hand and of
came his thumb, This continued in silence
until the cattleinan had Lost four fingers
and the Indian four. When the Indian
| reached for his foes left hand the latter
second, becoming frightened at the fearful
| flow Of blood, sent q bullet through the In'
dams heart.
The affair is one OF the most babarous and
inhuman ever heard OF in any land. IL IL
thought the cattlcman will die.
