DUELIST ARRESTED.
The New jersey "Affafr of Honor"
Likely to Be Aired in the Courts.

EASTON, Pa, Jan. 1.-E. L. Riegel, of
bloomsbury, n. J., who was wounded in an
impromptu duel at that place, last Sunday,
has had his adversary, William B. Bebler,
of Germantown, arrested on a charge of
murderous assault. DR.. J. S. Linnaberry,
of Bloomsbury, became the bondsman. The
story told by Riegels wife, whose alleged
filtration with Bebler was said to have led
to the duel, throws a new light on the af-
fair. She says her husband is inordinately
jealous and very headstrong and that Beb-
ler's actions, while he-wa a guest at their
house, could not possibly be construed in
an evil light. Mrs. Riegeps parents, Mr..
and Mrs. Clarkson Farron, of WestportaI,
claim that the doctor had treated his wife
badly for long time and this was the
reason why she left him and went TO live
with them No one charges Mrs. RiegeI
with wrong doing Bebler threatens to re-
taliate by bringing suit against Riegel, and
the probabilities are now that the case will
be settled in the courts.

by the other theaters by the previous
shocks. a stampede occurred Women
ieaped from the lower es, and the au-
dience struggled for escape at the narrow
exits. The manager appeared on the stage
and tried to calm the fear-crazed people,
and at last a degree of quiet was restored,
but not until most of the audience had
taken refuge in the streets, which were full
of frightened people. many of them in their
night-clothes. The scene of Nov. was re-
peated in large part, and thousands of
penitents knelt in the open streets and
prayed and cried in loud voice for deliv-
erance from death.
In Belem prison, where thousands of
wretched beings are huddled together in the
barracks, pandemonium reigned, and the
guards had hard work to prevent hundreds
from breaking out of their quarters and
hinging themselves over the walls. The

NEWFOUNDLAND LEGISLATURE.
Dill Guaranteeing the mmercial
Bank Notes Passed.

ST. JOHNS, N. F., Jan. 1.-The sessions
Of both houses of the Legislature last night
were stormy ones. In the upper house the
final vote on the bill guaranteeing the COM
mercial bank notes at 20 cents on the dol
lor resulted in a tie-5 to 5-but the measure
was passed by the chairman casting his
vote for it. Messrs. Thornburn and Angel,
Whtewayites, bolted their party which is
now in power, amid plauditS of the au-
dience. In the lower house the government in
troduced a bill abolishing the four Y, ars dis
qualification for bribery and corruption,
which renders ex-Prsmier Whteway and
sixteen of his followers incapable of hold
ing offices The opposition obstructed the
measure and the crowd present indulged in
loud Kissing of the speakers. The latter
demanded that the galleries be cleared. The
speaker gave an order to this effect, but it
was found impossible to carry it out,
and finally the speaker had to summarily
close the session.

Anyone who has ever had an at.
tack of infammatory rheumatism
will rejoice with Mr.. j. A. Stumm,
22O Boyle Heights, Los Angeles,
over his fortunate escape from a
siege of that distressing ailment.
Mr.. Stumm is foreman of Merriams'
confectionery establishment. Some
months ago, on leaving the heated
work room to run across the street
on an errand, he was caught out in
the rain. The result was that when
ready to go home that night he was
unable to walk, owing to infamma-
tory rheumatism, He was taken
home, and on arrival was placed in
front of a good fire and thoroughly
rubbed with Chamberlains Pain
Balm. During the evening and
night he was repeatedly bathed
with this liniment, and by morning
was relieved Of all rheumatic pains.
He now takes especial pleasure in
praising ChamberlaIn's Pain Balm,
and always keeps a bottle of it in
the house. For sale by Smith Drug

HONEST OFFICIAL.

The Bowie county News has found
an honest ex-county official in Bow
lie county who it claims, returned
the railroad pass given him compli-
mentary, during the incumbency
of Office, and which was still in force
after his retirement. The reporter
who likes to make mention of these
things-Calling names, and render
ing unto Caesar the things that
are Caesars" started out on a
chase for this anomoly and the near
est he could get at him is thus de-
scribed;
Once upon time, a Bowie coun-
ty official got frisky, something like
Marys lamb and he told the boys
of the 'Forks of the Creek" that
the railroads were returning their
assessments on mileage very short
of what it really was and that he
for one, would be willing that Bowie
county should be taxed to have
those roads re-surveyed and the tax
put upon the roads for every cent
that was coming. The boys of the
Forks" thought like this official,
and the order was passed down the
line. This official then dived into
his pocket, so the story goes, fished
up his transportation card and tore
1t up, throwing the mutilated thing
on the floor, with the exclamation
81 now burn the bridges between
the railroads and Bowie county, and
shall fight it out on this line" +"
1.-The survey was made and it was
found the road was beating the
county out of one thousand yards
of mileage between this city and
New Boston, or about $15,0 90 year,
The road at this time was selling
tickets from here to New Boston at
65c, and it Immediately proceeded
after this, to raise the price
to 70 cents, Things rocked on, time
sped, and the official was all right
until he concluded to make trip
out on the road and he sat down
and wrote the T. & p. road toplease
send him transportation, and the
railroad man wrote back to him,
to gather up those mutilated pieces
of a former pass and send them in,
and they would then consider the
application,

ARKANSAS HAS A PLACE.
She Does Not Come Last in the List
Of Leading States.

In population Arkansas is the
twenty-ffth state in the union with
l, l,l2S, 179 people, twenty-ffth in
area, having $3.50 square miles,
and twenty-eighth in railway mil
cage, with 242, 1888 miles, says the
Arkansas Democrat. If properly
classified it woulA rank as one OF
the richest states in the Union in
natural resources, and if these re-
sources were developed as the re-
sources of other states has been de-
veloped as one of the wealthiest
states in the southwest. 1t is, not
our fault that we rank only twenty
eighth in railway mileage, Instead
of about $500 miles of railway we
ought to have 1000 miles and even
the state would not be over run by
railroads.
