punish him. fash before his eyes. The most
serious duel Is that fought with heavy curved
saoers 'krummsaebef), which mostly infiict
severe wounds. The duel is generally con-
unued until one of the contestants is unable to
go on. Many die in consequence or arc Grip
pied for life. The successful handling of the
weapon requires GOODNESS, presence of mind

serious duel The challenged ono generally

not think that such duels for life or death arc

fought in German universities. One kind.
which is not peculiar to students nor to Ger
mans, il a contest for life and death to settle
some serious difficulty on some point of honor.
This is common to all nations on the European
continent. Even in this country such duels
have not yet quite disappeared. In Europe
they will not disappear as long as society
thinks it beneath the dignity Of gentleman
to bring certain offenses into court or con-
siders q mans honor stained by insults
for which there is no redress in law. How pow
erful hold this code of honor has upon society
10 shown by the fact that no military officer can
keep his epaulettes who declines a duel or who,
under certain circumstances, does not chal-
lenge. To take single instance, a man like
Ferdinand Lassalle, who personally was greatly
opposed to the duel, felt himself obliged to
submit to the custom and died it's victim. This
duel to the death may have originated in a de-
sire for vengeance; in many cases it was I'M
doubtedly an invocation of a higher power to
prove tho falseness of the charge implied in
the insult
THE MODERN DUEIIsr,
though the baser feeling Of revenge may often
guide bis deadly weapon, has another philoso-
ply. 1t is not the destruction of his opponent
which he desires; he tries. by exposing himself
to the danger OF being killed and wounded. to
prove his courage, which is the first of manly
virtues. and thus to clear his honor. This is
She reasoning of society, which will not accept
anyone as gentleman who declines to show
bis courage IN this way. Most duels are fought
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1890-09-27

for this reason; il is the condemnation Of So
ciety which is feared more than the weapon Of
the opponent. In fact, the weapons commonly
chosen, pistols, do not call for much courage
The danger is over in a moment; there is not
much chance for display Of SKILL and expert
ence shows that such duels very seldom have
a serious ending. Such duels as we read OF in
novels are few and far between. and when
they occur there is some thing more serious on
the bottom of them than the requirements OF
society-some mortal feud, i'll winch the con-
testants feel that the earth cannot bear both of
them alive. Such characters strong and noble
in love and hate, are not found as often in life
rs in novels, and are such as will always make
their own neral law.
While in this country and in England we
think IL quite natural. for instance, that a girl
who is left py her lover after the engagement
should sue him for damages. such step
wonld be considered mercenary and low in
Europe. where money is not regarded as an
equivalent for honor, and where marriage is
not looked upon simply as an affair of business
One may call this prejudice, but the life OF
the highest society is built upon it and single
person who calls the custom of dueling absurd
mus. submit 10 it if he does not want to be
called a coward. Few would have, and could
be expected TO have. that higher moral cour-
age to stand, for the sake of their opinions
the scorn Of those among whom they have
grown up and with whom all their incinations
and interests are.
THE DUEL WITH PISTOLS
As / said before, this kind OF dueli is supposed
TO be Of a more serious character. In many
cases. however, it is simply q farce, entered
upon to satisfy the demands of society. Az a
rule duel with pistols is game of hazard;
aiming is not permitted. and one may be sure
that often the witnesses fail to put bullets in
the murderous weapons. So it is generally
considered a very harmless affair. The start in
the dust OF the morning, the pretended Sc
crecv, the romantic spot generally chosen,
bring every participant to the agreeable delu-
sion that something extremely interesting is
going on. and the contestants are led to believe
themselves real heroes. But there il hardly
more chance for injury in a pistol duel than in a
Journey over a well-managed railroad. Besides
this hazardous character of the pistol duel.
which is due to the way il is managed, the
weapon itself lacks another quality for chiv-
alrous contest: 1t offers no possibility for de-
tense.
FENCING DCELs
with any weapon are of a more dangerous
character and therefore require moro courage

duels, the first drop OF blood drawn. no matter

Gen. Tnliafcrro's Son Killed in a School
Fight.
A FATAL FIST DUEL

Warren Taliaferro, aged sixteen. OF Virginia,
and Frank w. McCannico. aged eighteen, of
Texas cadets ut the Virginia Military Institute,
engaged in duel with fis.icuffs yesterday.
Talaferro died few hours later from the eff
fec's OF tho injuries he received. There was
some point of honor at stake between the lads
They selected seconds and repaired to ono of
the society halls of the institute, where a ring
was mapped out. The fight lasted about half
an hour, and both were badly bruised. Italia
ferro went to his room with his nose bleeding
He soon fell into an apparent sleep, and never
woke again. His death was only discovered
late IN the afternoon.
The opinion seems to DO that nothing can be
done to McCannico before any jury in the
neighborhood, as the two lads were evenly
matched as to size, and tho fight was accounted
q fair one.
Warren Taliaferro was a nephew Of Gen.
Taliaferro, one of the most prominen: men in
the state, and brother Of the first honor man of
last year, now an assistant professor. Both
cadets were first year men. McCaunico has
been arrested and placed under bail. He was
SO badly injured in the fight that he has been
speechless ever since.
THE INQUEST.
An inquest was held yesterday over the re-
mains OF Cadet Taliaferro. At tho post-mor-
tenn examination 1t was found that death re-
suited from apoplexy, superinduced by the
violence Of the fight, and the jury brought in
. verdict accordingly. McConnico wss
brought before Judge Houston Inst evening
and admitted to bail in the sum of $4,000 to
appear before court on October to answer
for his part in tho affair. He was severely
punished during the fight, and since tho death
Of Taliaferro has been completely FRUSTRATED.
His father. A. d. McConuico OF Bryan, Tex,
has been autographed for. Young Taliaferro
was an orphan. His mother and father are
buried in Norfolk. Va, and his body was sent
there last evening for interment. Tho remains
were &C companied by Capt 7. II. Taliaferro, n
brother of the deceased and q tutor In tho in
