Which is my wife?" he inquired

or is it just trade custom for BARRIERS
to subscribe for such publications

they order soap and shaving papers?
Is 1t that all the thousands of mild

there is therefore no need of catering 20

The BON bay Governments analyst
has been investigating the various pol
sons that are used in India, and in the
course of his report he disposes of the
old notion that pounded glass is the
most deadly kind of substance you can
mix with the food of any one against
whom you entertain particular
grudge Pounded glass;" he says, "is
a most useful poison" He does not,
of course, mean by this that 1t assists
digestion or can safely be recommended
as a pick-me-u after a hard days
work, but that it is useful in the sense
of not doing very much harm to the
person whose life is aimed at and
leading very easily to the detection of
the wouldbe murderer If 1t Is
pounded until it becomes very fine, it
causes merely slight discomfort and
can be detected in the first mouthful OF
the food with which it is mixed The
same may be said, 1t appears, Of di-
mond dust, tigers whiskers. chopped
hair. and such like. After all, two
penn'orth OF black beetle killer is as
good-or as bad-as anything, and you

night and printed throughout the
dountry that Judge Duffie had in
structed the sheriff to do everything
in his power as an officer of the law
to prevent the contemplated fight
between Corbett and Fitzsimmons
from coming eff here, is entirely true.
He advised the sheriff fully as to his
duty and said he would give him
further information as time passed on.
1t is evidently Judge Duties purpose
to prevent the fight if he can, but
Notwithstanding the action of Judge
Duffie the people here feel no uneasi-

there is 10 doubt but that the fight
will take place Oct. 81.

A CRIMEAN GUN DUEL.
The Russians Were Chivairous Enough
to Admit Their Guns Defeat

The Russians Were Chivairous Enough
to Admit Their Guns Defeat.
While the flag of truce was flying a
Russian officer of artillery went up to
ask Sir Richard Airey If Gen. Dacres.
commanding the English artillery, was
on the ground. On Sir Richard an
swering in the negative the officer said:
Your xty-eight-pounder gun that
your people call Jenny is beautiful
gun, but We think we have one as good
in that embrasure," pointing up to the
mamelon, land we would like to have
fair duel with her" Ajrey took up the
challenge at once, and everything was
arranged for II o'clock noon next day.
When the time arrived all the batteries
on both sides ceased firing. A large
number of officers, French and Eng
lish, were assembled at our lookout sta
ton, behind the twenty-one-gun bat
terry, to look on, says a writer In an
English paper. Our sailors gun de-
tachmeht mounted on their parapets
and took off their hats, saluting the
Russians. The Russians returned the
compliment The English gun was
given the first shot as the senior gun;
It struck the side of the Russian en-
brasure. Then they fired-a very
good shot, too. The third shot from
Jenny went clean through the Russian
embrasure and up went two gabions.
The blue jackets jumped up on their
parapet and cheered, thinking they had
beaten their opponents. Not bit! A
minute afterward down went the CAB
ions and out came the Russian gun
again. Several more shots were fired
from both sides, all very good ones.
Jenny got nasty thump, but 1t did
her no harm. At length, l think the
seventh shot from our side, We saw the
Russian gun knocked clean over. Our
fellows cheered vociferously and the
Russians mounted their parapet and
took off their hats in acknowledgment
of their defeat. All the batteries then
opened again. Thus ended the great
gun duel.
