While the code dueilo, in its san
culinary character, is rapidly becom-
ing obsolete in the United States, it
appears TO be still in high favor on the
other side of the Atlantic. In Ger
many some 1000 engagements are
yearly fought on the field of honor
with sanguinary results. Most of
these engagements take place in the
neighborhood of college towns. With
in theHspace of twenty-four hours as
many as twenty duels have occurred
in the neighborhood of Jena.
Next to Germany in allegiance to
the code duello comes France. There
are some 1900 duels fought annually
in France, the participants being
mainly officers in the French army.
Italy comes next TO France, with some
275 duels annually. During the past
ten years italy has furnished 1853
duels. Austria, Russia. Spain and
Great Britain rank next in the order
named. In Great Britain the code
has become almost as obsolete as in
the United States. Most of the duels
fought on the European continent are
fought with the sword, though pistols
and knives are used occasionally. =

The Black Rot of the Cabbage.

Farmers Bulletin, No. 6S, has just
been published by the Department of
Agriculture giving to cabbage growers
the benefit of some recent discoveries
by the Division of Vegetable Physio-
logy and Pathology of the United
States Department of Agriculture on
the black rot of the cabbage. The
author of this bulletin is Mr. Erwin F.
Smith, under whose immediate super
vision the investigations were made
which resulted in these discoveries.
Although this disease has come into
prominence only within the last few
years, it is now a serious hindrance to
cabbage growing in several States,
causing losses to the growers aggre-
eating many thousands of dollars
yearly.
The disease is known to growers in
various parts of the country under
different names, perhaps the common
est of which are ''stem rot'' and
''black rot, "and has heretofore resisted
all attempts to eradicate it.
As there is no known way of curing
the disease or of entirely ridding a
locality of it when once established,
prevention is the only alternative, and
the bulletin points out to the grower
where the danger lies, how the intro
duction of the disease may often be
prevented, and how, when already
introduced, great losses may some
times be avoided. Field and

The Coming Man.

The question OF drunkenness or sobriety
in an employe Is year by year assuming
greater Importance, says an exchange. The
more responsible requirements OF these
later times make new phase in the TEN.
perance question. Rapid transit and rapid
pretty much everything annibilate time
and space, and they have also the liability
to ennihilate a great deal of human life.
Those who direct these things, they who
are In immediate control, must have clear
heads, sharp eyes and strong arms. There
is no place OF responsibility In which
drunkard or tippler can by any moral
right be put. In discussing this matter, a
recent writer says very pertinently, and
speaking the sentiments OF all Thought
ful persons: 1.-THE conviction Is deepening
among employers and laborers equally, to
dismiss inebriety from the problem OF en-
ployment, wages and labor. Each side
plainly sees the injury-the damage to all
parties imposed by the inebriate. The day
Is coming and must soon come, when So
briefly Will stand first among the titled
qualifications OF labor. SO many men
work among machines that drunkenness
is inconsistent with their own safety; SO
many work in places which involve the
safety OF others, where drunkenness can
not possibly be tolerated. drunken man
may wreck train simply because he is
drunk. He may destroy property because
he Is drunk, and make drunken blunder
with machinery. Human liberty does not
include the privilege OF drunkenness in
places where human life or property is at
stake or dependent upon the mistakes of
an alcoholized brain. Drinking locomotive
engineers, for instance, certainly are dan
gerous men. No penalty can be too great

Trimmed and rralned slt,rts. ,

The fact is well established now that
long trailing skirts are to be worn
with house gowns-by house gowns
are meant evening gowns, reception
gowns, or any gowns suited for house
wear. AS yet we have not gone back
to long skirts for street wear, al
though even walking gowns have the
skirts long enough to require holding
up in the street. Many of the long
skirts are extremely graceful. There
is one style which is made with very
little goring, fits quite sheathlike,
with the fulness laid in small pleats,
but cut to fare out at the end of the
train. In soft silks, satins, poplins,
and cashmeres this is very attractive,
for the lines are so graceful. The
plain look is broken by bands of trim
ming either down the seams or around
the foot, or else with patterns of en-
broidery and cut-work put on the front
breadth. There is evidently an in
tention of restoring drapery, for some
very smart skirts have the front and
side. breadths long enough to allow of
draping just little back of the hip.
and showing glimpse of an under
petticoat of different material. This
is becoming style of skirt, and looks
especially we'll when the back breadths
are long enough to train.
