water is filing the New river canal sys-

The south branch is doing the same
towards Indian Wells. The old lakes
are filing up again with the water that
passes to the southwark from the Colo

The old Pardonas river is running full
OF water, and is out of its banks in

WILL THEY FIGHT?
RUMORs OF A DUEL BETWEEN M. M.
SCHMIDT AND QUARRE.
What N. Pierre Ganee Says Of the Mat
ter-soms Of the Current Gossip.
Quarrs Buys = Horse.

Monsieur Pierre Gane4 has the fol-
lowing in L'Union Nouvelle sof yester-
day morning:
'"Tne local American. papers have
fully told the hero-comical episodes of
heated alteration which took place last
weekon Main street in front Of Joseph
Mesmei's store, between our compatriot
Lsuis Schmidt and the Belgian E.
Quarre, in which the latter did not
withdraw with the honors of war. The
two adversaries were Of the same size,
and while lively times might have been
anticipated after the second clash
Quarre suddenly fed and retired into
Stht rear part of the store, behind 8
counter, from which it became impos-
sible to draw him. To all requests he
answered as in the song: f;
II have one arm that still wiggles,
But the other wiggles not"
"We have scorned to mention this in.
cident, which appeared as if it were to
remain barren of results, and if we are
obliged to refer to it today, IL is because
Mr.. L. Schmidt, dissatisfied with the
way in which Quarre tells the affair,
means to meet him on the field, and we
must expect new incidental" 9i' iH1 4
Upon reading the above . HERALD re-
porter sought the two doughty men who
are anxious to lose their lives, their lib
erty or their political rights for the sake
Of finding out whether it is true that

other wiggleth not, but neither Of the
candidates for an early grave and coro-
ner's inquest could be found in the
places whore they are ordinarily to be
met several times q day without the aid
OF Sam Weller's ten thousand hextra
power magnifying microscope.
II is said that Schmidt is assiduously
taking lecons d'escrime from Provost
Lambert on Amelia street. A few dis
Greet questions regarding Quarre brought
to light the fact that he has lately
bought q 1619 hands charger, with
which he practices equitation every
afternoon out in the country. The rea-
son for this purchase is that Quarre,
inspired by the proud deeds OF his an
cestora, the barons Won Quarre, who
fought insthe crueades with Godfrey Of
Bouillon, intends to fight cap-a-pie,
mounted on q. a.charger Al full of fire as is
his master, and not otherwise. No
earthly confederation will make him
swerve. not for = dozen Schmidts, from
this laudable and chivalrous purpose.
II is added that the rea-
SON Mr.. sQuarre does not ride

might admire his Apollo-like shape, is,
that he cannot brook the idea Of being

REAPPoRTIoNMENT THE TRUE OBJ
JECT

The state is likely to be the sufferer,
together with political fortunes OF
individuals, if the legislature makes an
effort to deal with all the subjects
mentioned by the governor in his call
for a special session.
In the public mind there existed but
one sufficient cause for the special
session; the reapportionment of the
state. Had that been attended to at
the regular session, it is safe to say
there would have been no special
session. All other subjects mentioned
by the governor are matters for which
no claim of urgency can be made.
The constitutional amendments if given
effect in the haste of special session
are likely to become objects Of re-
proach rather than of blessing.
All considerations of regard for the
best interests Of the state call for as
little legislation as possible at the
special session, and if the members OF
the Twenty-second legislature are
mindful of these, as well as of them
selves, they will reapportion the state
and adjourn without entangling them
selves or the state with new issues
pending the general election.

rottenness that BODIED evil to divers and
sundry ambitious Republican states
men as well as to their party. When
danger was observed showing its head
Speaker Reed applied his parliament
tary air brake and brought the matter
to an end. The Republican majority
OF the committee could not prevent
the couple OF Democratic members
from unearthlng unquestionable crook
edness, although that was their mis-
sion, and so the boss interfered to
shield Raum's rascality and cover up
the thievery rampant in his bureau,
where it is charged by the most power
full journals of the East that fourth to
third of the pensions allowed are
fraudulent, and the money paid on
them as good as stolen from the treas
ury.
Speaker Crisp has appointed a COM
mittee not like Reeds, to cover up the
rottenness, but one that will bring it
to light, and expose to the public gaze
the true inwardness of that monstrous
Augean stable. The committee is com
posed Of three Democrats and two Re-
publicans. Four of the five were Union
soldiers, and all from the North. They
are Wheeler of Michigan, chairman,
Little of New York, DUNCAN of Ohio,
and the two Republicans, Brosius and
Lind. The committee is said to be an
able and fair-minded one. Chairman
Wheeler, who had no share in the
former investigation and has not seen
the evidence produced by it, declares
that he is entirely unbiased in mind,
and is resolved to make fair and i'm
partial inquiry, let the result be what it
may. If it shall be creditable to the
present administration, none will re-
joice at that fact more than he. If it
shall be otherwise, he will deplore the
evil of it as much as another, but will
in any event do his duty. He is himself
a pensioner on account of wounds re-
ceived in battle, a circumstance that
will dispose him favorably to pen
sioners generally.
What Chairman Wheeler proposes
is all that the most exacting could ask,
that is fair, full and impartial inves-
tigation. That much is due to all hon
est and meritorious pensioners as well
as to the public, which has to foot all
bills, whether honest or fraudulent.
The public may now expect to know
before long the true inwardness of the
pension bureau, kept so long covered
up by interested Republicans,
