Special Dispatch to THE CALI.

SAN DIEGO, Dec. IS Particulars of a
remarkable duel between Mexican and
American miners in Lower California have
been brought up by Jose De Luna OF Los
Angeles, one OF the participants. 1t was
nothing else than free for-au me.ee,
with dynamite as the weapon of destruc-
ton One man was killed by the explo-
sion OF a stick of dynamite hurled by an
other, and most of the others are in Jail
al Mueje awaiting trial for murder. De
Luna, who seems to have been an inno-
cent participant in the scrimmage, was
not held.
The fight began at the silver camp at
San Juan, where a quarrel over work en-
bittered two miners. Others we're drawn
into the quarrel and the bad feeling broke
out in night at Las Flores, the port of
the San Juan mines. There one OF two
MexlCans fought with the Americans, and
even an Indian or two became mixed up
1t was at the beach that Luna nearly lost
his life by dynamite cartridge.
Three MexIcans, named Mendez, Chayes
and Rodriguez, learned that De Luna,
another miner named Romero and several
Indians were coming TO the coast. Tney
plo tied to get one of the Indians drum k
ana nlre MIN 10 XIII De Luna, by throwing
dynamite at him, the stick being pre-
viousiy capped and prepared for ex-
plosion.
AWhen De Luna and the others arrived,
the programme was earned out all too
well Tor Romero, who was killed. An
Indian known as Jose Juan, a Yaqui,
was made drunk, and the piotters told
hm stories of how De Luna had wronged
MIN. This made him frenzIed, and he
agreed to kll De Luna. The dynamite
was prepared, and the Indian started to
execute his mission. De Luna and the
others were on the lookout, however and
were prepared to run.
The Indian threw several sticks of the
deadly stuff at the fleeing miners, but
only one stick exploited. 1t struck Ro-
mero's heel, and the force of the explo-
sion was such as to throw him thirty feet
away and shatter every bone in his body.
! The back OF his head was almost entirely
blown off De Luna made a circle, got
several OF the dynamite sticks and pur-
sued the Mexicans who had plotted against
him. They promptly got out OF the way,
and no further casua ties resulted.
The authorities a Muleje got wind OF
the story, and arrested The three Mexi-
cans and the Indian. De Luna was al
lowed to go, but was required 10 be back
al date of the prosecution. Romero was
buried where he fell. De Luna made his
way 10 Santo Domingo, and there eau hi

Anpeles

MEXICO CLAIMS
CLIPPERTON ISLAND
Warship Sent TO Investigate
the Alleged British
Occupancy.
1t Is Not Anticipated That Anything
Like War VIII
Follow.
Special DI.patch to THE CALL

Special Dispatch to The CALL
CITY OF MEXICO, Dec. 16.-Some time
ago when 1t was rumored that a British
warship had seized Clipperton island,
local papers took the matter up and there
forcible occupation of Mexican soil. The
Foreign Relations Department asked the
War D. epartment TO send an expedition to
the island to investigate if the British
really had taken possession. -Four days
ago the corvette Ell Democrata, Captain
Osofoli Genesa, left Mazatlan for the
island.
Should it be true that the island which
Mexico claims, has been seized by the
British the matter will be taken up diplo.
matically for the purpose of recoverin g
the territory. Mexico will formally re-
quest the restoration OF the island. No
one here expects any serious difficulty
formation regarding the alleged seizure OF
Clipperton.
At the Foreign Relations Department
to-day il was said the object of the e1-
petition was not wa arlike, but merely to
a scertain the true condition of afYalrs.
The same thing was said at the War De
D artment. There is no disquietude over
the matter here. The newspapers, how.
ever, are likely to make much of the
seizure if it turns out TO be a TACT for
there is a sentiment among the Mexican
people that England unjustly acquired
Belize or British Honduras from this
country.

WOULD DISCIPLINE HlLB0RR.
General Lew Wallace Takes Excep-
tons to Statements Made by the
Congressman.

INDIANAPOLIS, Dec. 16-"Spesking
about our engaging in war" saws General
Lew Wallace the soldier-autnor, Il
noticed in the papers the other day that
Congressman HIborn of California, a
ber OF the House Committee on Naval
Affairs, made the statement that, while
we Lad some vessels, we did not have in
this country enough powder TO fire the
ordinary salutes. He made this state
ment to express the absurdity, in his
opinion, of this country engaging in war.
THAT fellow should be disciplined for
that kind of talk. He ought to know that
this country has concealed in some place
in the Aleg hany Mountains enough salt
peter 10 make all the powder we would
need in a long war. That statement was
highly iniudicious, and l believe not true.
Even though true, however, it but adver-
tises our weakness TO the world and in
vites trouble. Congress should appoint a
CO mittee TO have that uiterance invosti-
ga ed, and if proved to be accurately re-
ported, he should be Censured-yes, even
expelled from the House. He is not 1T TO
represent anybody"

happy one

A healthy baby is the real Jewel for which
the wedding ring is only the setting
There is no place in Natures economy for
a childless marriage. Welded couples that
are childless are never truly married A
baby is the tie that binds. The baby is the
pledge that makes husband and wife ore in
nature and in fact and that teaches mutual
selfsacrihce and sympathy. Thousands Of
couples are childless because of the wife's
neglect of her health as a woman Too few
women fully appreciate the importance of
keeping healthy and vigorous the organs
upon which motherhood is dependent As
a consequence, they are weak where they
should be strong, and motherhood is either
impossibllity or torturesorne and dar>
gerous ordeal. This is easily remedied
The most wonderful medicine for women
is DR.. Pierces Favorite Prescription. II
acts directly and only on those delicate OF.
gans upon which the perpetuation of the
race depends. 1t allays inflammation.
soothes pain and makes those organs
healthy and vigorous. 1t prepares for
motherhood. 1t makes the expectant period
comfortable. II makes baby's coming easy
and almost painless and insures health in
both mother and child. Druggists sell it.
Il take pleasure in expressing my faith in
your Favorite Prescription, )" writes Miss Edith
Cain, of Clinton, Allegheny Co., Pa. After two
years of suffering I began taking DR. Pierce s
medicine and now entirely cured I had
been troubled with displacement of internal
weakness but now am well and happy 1 will
cheerfully recommend DR. Pierces Favorite Pre-
scription to all invalid ladies"
The profit side of life is health. The bal.
euce is written in the rich, red, pure blood of
health. DR. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets cure
constipation and make the blood rich and
pure. They never gzipe. By druggists.

She was rather a petite little thing and
quite handsomely dressed, so two or
three clerks undertook to wait on her at
once, says the Chicago Evening Post
Il want to gain little information in
regard to styles for the coming summer, -
she explained.
Certainly" replied the clerk who had
succeeded in getting to her first. Il can
show you the latest fashion plates or give
you a brief description of some of the
principal novelties, so that you may get
some sort of an idea of what you would
like to look at"
That would suit me exactly" she re-
turned, smiling sweetly.
'Well," he explained, determined TO do
himself proud the fashionable skirt this
summer will be"
The what!' she exclaimed in astonish-
ment
"The-the--really fashionable skirt" he
faltered, wondering what could be the
trouble.
The skirt!' she cried. What did you
think l asked for?"
"Some mething-er-er-for summer wear"
he answered hesitatingly.
"Of course" she said. II didn't ask
anything about winter garments, did II"
Moo"
"Well, then, what are you talking about
skirts for? Do 1 look like an old fogy?'
certainly not. L Wouldn' intimate
such a thing for minute"
Then trot out the fashions that I ask
ed for. What's the latest things in blooms
ers and bathing suits? Are they to be
worn scant or full? Is a jockey cap to be
the correct thing for road wear or must
get a yachting cap and put hairpin in it
so that 1 can tell it from my brothers? :?
Should l wear blouse waist or may put
on a mans negligee shirt with short
sack coat over it?"
Really, Miss. I-er-er-I-you see, this
is the ladies' dress goods department, and
I-er-'
"Of course, it is,'' she interrupted. 'It's
ladies' dress goods that l want. If you
don't think that's what 1 asked for YOU
must have kept your eyes shut all last
summer"
well, the fact is" he tried to explain,
''that while we have some of the things
that you want in this department, you
will have to so to the mans department
for most of them"
''The mems Department. she exclaim-
ed. Whats the difference?'
"Why. frankly he replied in despera-
tion, there is mighty little''
Then she went away threatening to re-
port him for not showing proper respect
for lady.

1t Doesn't Seem Enir.

1T doesn't seem just right he said, as
he pushed the paper away from him.
What doesn't?" she asked.
"Wen" he explained, here's a case
where a man has been sent to jail for big
amy"
What is there wrong about that?" she
demanded Indignantly.
Nothing, nothing" he hastened to say,
knowing full well what would happen If
her wrath were aroused in connection
with such a subject, according to the
Washington Star; that is, nothing if we
consider that case by ITSELF
And if we don't?" she said, inquiringly.
'If we don't" he said I'VE are immedi-
ately confronted by a case in the very next
column where man has got it in the neck
as it were, i'm a breach of promise CASE
"Well, what's the matter with that?'
she demanded again with considerable EN-,
phasis
Nothing. nothing at ALL he answered,
so hastily that it seemed evident that he
again saw trouble ahead; that is, nothing
at all if we consider the case by itself. A
man who can't live up to his promise
ought to get in trouble"
"Then what are you driving at?" she ex-
claimed. You admit that they are both
deservedly punished, and yet
"Deservedly punished when the cases
are considered separately" he interrupt
ed Everything depends upon that"
81 don't quite follow you," she said.
"Of course not" he returned. Your
sex"
Then he noticed the way she was look
ing at him and decided that he would not
say it.. There are limits to the daring Of
even a courageous man, if he happens 10
be married.
You may not agree with me-" he said,
meekly, "but the point / make is that il
does not seem right to punish one man
for having too many wives and another
for not having enough"
She laughed scornfully, as II the mat
ter were not worth her attention, but 1t is
nevertheless true that the subject that he
thus hesitatingly brought to her notice
has been scheduled for debate in the Sc
ciety of which she is president.
