A NOVEL DUEL.
The Principals Walk Into Dark Room
Filled with Tarantulas.

The details of one of the strangest
duels ever fought has been brought to
this city, says a Las Vegas letter, by a
prospector who has been in the noun
tains southwest of Las Vegas The
country is near the border line between
Old and New Mexico, and the people
there are mixture of the two races.
Two young men-an American and
MeXican-fel out over young woman
they both loved, and the result was that
the enmity became too great to be car
ried, and it was determined to end it in
a duel.
The matter came about in an unusual
way, however, and it was not regular
challenge and acceptance, but while in
company of mutual friends the Mexican
tainted the American with being a
member of race of towards and said
the Americans had no bravery. The
American, OF course, disputed this and
said he would test the Mexican's brav-
cry if he wished it. He would be will
ing to 60 into a dark room with the
Mexican and there decide the point.
But the stipulation was that in the
dark room there should also be lot of
tarantulas turned loose. If either
came out alive he was 70 have the girl
If either showed the white feather and
came out before'the death Of the other.
or before all the tarantulas was killed,
he should give up all claim to the girl.
The Mexican was disposed to refuse
but the fear of being looked upon as a
coward caused him To accept. The
room was prepared and the two men
went in. There We're at least a dozen
tarantulas in the room and also two
scorpions. The American walked boldly
into the room and took his stand. while
the Mexican followed, but was hesitat-
ing in his manner The doors had been
closed but short time until the Mex
can was heard TO scream out that he was
bitten and was dying. The doors were
opened and he staggered out and fell 10
the floor. The American walked out
unhurt, and then il was found that the
Mexican had not been bitten q, ali. nut

he would rob them with impuuiCy, and
then return TO his home without fear of
detection. The prisoner appeared to
mourn the loss of his dog greatly, and
did not seem to care what became Of
him since the animal was dead. An in
vestigation revealed the fact that the
man lived in the outskirts OF the city,
and was evidently tOnale vcnder. In
his cabin were found the fruits Of sew
eral recent robberies. and evidence suf-
fcient TO show that the prisoner made
robbery his regular nightly occupation.
An effort was made to get him 20 tel
something about himself and the dog.
but he stubbornly refused 20 talk.
