One Principal Declined to Be Shot Full
of Holes.
In connection with Senator-efect Irby's
duel in his younger days, says the Washing
ton Post, John NJ. Allen of Mississippi, tells
of an amusing affair of honor in which he
acted as second. There was bad feeling be-
tween two lawyers in Mississippi, and it
was decided that only blood could wipe out
the enmity which existed. A challenge was
sent and duly acknowledged. The hour was
appointed and the two met in secluded
spot. One of them was great sufferer from
ST. Vltus' dance, the othef was cool and COL
lected
AS they faced each other the afflicted
man began to tremble from head to foot,
while his pistol described an arc with vary
stuod firm as a rock, waiting for the signal

his pistol on the ground, walket into the
woods and cut a limb off a tree with fork

This was too much for the seconds, and by
mutual agreement truce was patched up
and no shots were exchanged.

Gent to pay the awards OF iuries in cases
now pending.
Sites have already been secured at Bos-
ton, New York and Washington, and other
sites on the East coast are desired. which
leave out in the cold the San Francisco

forty acres tie jury awarded $4,000. The
