Alameda Argus: That dueling has
fallen to a low estate in the estima-
ton of the people is not proven by the
pages of reports and pictures of the
meeting of Prince Henry and the Count
of Turin, which took place yesterday
morning. There is evidently the
greatest interest manifested in this
princely duel by the virtuous denizens
of this democratic country that is pop
ularly supposed TO scorn both title and
code: and in Italy the populace went
wild with enthusiasm, insisting hat the
royal hymn be played by the band and
exalting the young Count into as hero.
In the parlance Of more ignoble sport,
it was a rafting set-to, and not a ludic-
rous affair such as modern duels have
generally come to be. It was fierce
and bloody, and the vanquished comes
out with glory as well as the vanquish-
er 1t is not unlikely that it will re-
suit in a revival Of the code in some
considerable degree. Habits and Gus
toms fall into desuetude. and then re-
vive, IN cycles. Since dueling was in
vogue new generation has come upon
the scene. and the natural love Of com
bat that abides in the human makeup
will be most powerfully appealed to by
this celebrated encounter.

"That reminds me of a remark
once heard made by a famous Talla-
hassee lobbyist" pat in the Florida
oracle. "Some one said that the third
house was very thinly populated that
year, when the man of mystery piped
up with. 'Dou't you know why? Well,
the corporations, instead of sending
lobbyists here to work on the dead
quiet this time, thought it would be
cheaper to have their friends elected
to the legislature outright, and that's
why there are no lobbyists here this
season. Perhaps that Is the way it is
in Georgia." continued the Florida
man, as he paid up his losses on John
Lehman's horse, and heaved a deep
sound money sigh.

JENNINGS JOKE.
The Coroner Had a Good Audience,
But Didn't Walk.

The Coroner Had Good Audience,
But Didn't Walk.
A crowd of from $50 to 200 people
gathered at and around the corner Of
Newcastle and Gloucester streets yes.
terday afternoon to witness the thrill
ing rope walk of Coroner Hal Jen-
nings.
Those who chanced to look at their
calendars lust before starting for the
scene, were not in the expectant
crowd. There were, however, many
who did not take this precaution, and, j.,
regardless of the weather they were
there. The weather, also, which was
clustering and damp, kept away many
who were anxious TO attend,
The gathering, at first, was small:
but when the coroner, with several
friends, made his appearance on the
roof of the Moore and McCrary build
ing, frightened his rope, hung his ira
peze, and busted himself about the pre-
liminaries, the people began to come
from all directions.
There was long wait, and impa-
tience began to manifest Itself. At
ter little, the coroner came to the
edge of the roof and addressed the
populaoe. He said that the high wind
and the rain made it impossible for
him to give his performance, but that
he would give it at later day.
Soon after, the rope was lowered and
the crowd smelled rat, small boy
on the corner yelled "April Fool".
This settled it. There was a slink-
ing around corners, a succession of
dry grins, invitations to kick each
other, and the various manifestations
of good sell. The coroner will prob
ably repeat his performance next year,
same date.
Among the prominent people who
gathered and waited patiently to see
the performance were Lieut.. F. d.
Aiken. Manager Kemp, Purser Witt
of the Colorado, Constable Bob Gas
kins. Judge Hitch. G. II. Wimberly
and few scores of others.

wreck Of the year on the Central of

be dead is brakeman, Joel Bragg,

certain that he is buried beneath the
wrecked cars. His proper place at the
