GONE HOME TOGETHER.
Mr.. and Mrs. Dangerfield Meet in This
City and 60 to Their Virginia Residence.

So far as Mr.. and Mrs. Reverdy Daingerield
| seem to be concerned the trouble which might
have ensued between them over the episode
in which Mrs. Daingerfeld and Ned"
Blunt has been obviated. This morn
ing Mr., Daingerfeld left his home
in Alexandria and came to this city. Numer-
Gus reasons we're advanced by tho knowing
ones for this action, but no one predicts cor
| rectly. Mr.. Daingerfeld had come to talk the
, situation over with his wife and the confer
ence resulted in proving the truthfulness OF
the adage, at is the unexpected that always
happens" Mr.. and Mrs. Daingerfeld have
returned to their Virginia home together.
That puts stop to the gossips who
live together. Whatever differences of
opinion may have existed between the
man and wife with regard to Blunt and
the causes which led to his assault
or Mrs. Daingerfeld they exist no longer, and
while they may be war between Mr.. danger
field and Blunt there is promise Of peace in the
Daingerfeld family.
THERE WILL BE NO DUEL.
Unduly excitable people have been insisting
that there must be duel between the aggrieved
husband and the wife's assailant This rumor
| seems to have had its foundation in the fact
that Mr.. Daingerfeld, not unnaturally, has
consulted with a number of his friends as to
what should be done in the matter.
Those who know are certain there will
| be no duel. II Mr.. Dangerfield meets
Blunt on the street and thrashes him no one,
| not even Blunt, will be surprised, but the idea
| OF duel, in which Blunt would be given
an opportunity to kill the hus-
| is regarded as more or less absurd Some OF
Mr.. Daingerfield's Virginia friend, say that
under the ''code" there could be no duel be-
! tween the two on the ground that Blunts con-
duct placed him beyond the reach OF any gen.
| tleman.
BLUNT's STRANGE CONDUCT.
The excuse which is being freely offered for
| was so thoroughly intoxicated at the time that
he was simply insane. Blunt himself is reported
| as saying that the thing would not
| have happened had he not been under the in
fuence OF liquor. He also says that he and
| Daingerfeld are friends and understand each
other to such an extent that there will be no
| trouble about the affair.
DAINGERFIELD's COURAGE
A friend of Mr.. Daingerfeld's is quoted in
| the New York World as saving: "Dalngerield
! certainly has the courage to kill Blunt He is
o cool-headed man and he would bide his time.
| He would not STAY Blunt either in New JERSEY
| or New York, because he would know that
the law in these states would not sanction his
deed He would wait until Blunt returned to
Washington, where he would be morally GER
| tain that no jury could be impanelled that
would convict him. There both he and Blunt
are known. and the sentimental aspect Of the
case would have the deciding influence"
Blunts father went up to Sheephead Bay to
see his son aud had not returned when a STAR
reporter called at his residence this afternoon.
None OF Blunts friends are trying to defend
his action. and they agree that an apology is
| at least due to the assaulted woman but they
insist that he would hardly have attacked a
| woman who was stranger or only casual ac-
