holding itself and ssnfi ing itself in good

HIS ANTAGONIST ALSO A DEPUTY

ROME, March 8.-Signor Felice Carlo
Cavalotti, poet, dramatist, publicist
and the we'll known Radical member
of the chamber of deputies from Corte-
Clona, was killed here in a duel with
swords with Signor Macola, member Of
the chamber of deputies and editor Of
The Gazzetta di Venezia.
The encounter was the outcome of g.
press polemic in the columns of the
Milan Secolo and The Gazzetta di
Venezia. It took place at an unfre.
quented spot outside the Porta Mag
giore. The first two engagements were
without result, but in the third Signcr
Cavalotti received a thrust in the
throat that severed his jugular. Trach-
eotomy was performed and artificial
breathing attempted but all efforts
were useless. Signor Csvalotti expired
in 10 minutes without speak ing again.
Signor Macola did not receive a
scratch.
The news OF reaching the city
caused great sensation. Numerous
deputies and friends hurried to the
spot, and there is universal regret over
the tragic end of Cavalotti.

WHAT THE BAND PLAYED.

An Exciting Dinner Table Episode on an
= Atlantic Liner. ~
An instance of what it calls ''trans-
atlantic courtesy is related by LIE eau
lois Of Paris. One of the greatest singers
of France, a woman whom it says every
body will at once identify on a mo.
ment's consideration, was returning
from New York on one of the German
liners. One evening, glancing at the
programme of the concert that was to
be played at dinner, she saw the an
nouncement of triumphal march cele-
brating the German victory of 1871. -
%''I am sure,'' she said to a fellow
countryman sitting near, "that this is
not intended as discourtesy to us, but
l don't care! I'm too much of patriot
not to express my disapproval of it in
my own way when they begin to play
this piece. Wait and see.'' t.
The captain, having caught the gist
of these remarks and noticing the great
artists agitation, glanced at the pro-
gramme to see what caused it; then,
without showingfany surprise, he spoke
to one Of the walters in low tone.
At the moment when the German tri-
umphal march was due to begin the
French singer, who could hardly, con-
troll her agitation, prepared to leave the
table. The first chord was played, the
artist arose and stood, pale, agitated,
amazed. while the officers and other
passengers also got up and smiled SYM
pathetically at her. And the band play
ed "The Marseillaisep n ggsess.--

How senator Vest Obtained hi. Des,

Row senator vest ODCa1ned Ills Desk.
Many good stories could be told Of
the alertness which senators display in
securing we'll placed desks, but the ex.
perienoe of Mr.. Vest is especially worth
relating. When in 1883 the civil service
law was being discussed, Mr.. Pendle-
ton, an Ohio Democrat, and Mr.. Dawes
had presented bills. By a shrewd bit of
politics the Repub licans abandoned their
support Of the Dawes bill and voted for
Mr.. Pendleton's measure, their votes,
together with the votes Of the Demo-
Gratis favorable to the measure, being
sufficient to pass cit. As the bill was
about to be voted on Mr.. Cockrell NOV
ed that its title be changed SO as to
read, A bill to retain Republicans in
office. As soon as it passed, Mr.. Vest
fled claim for Mr.. Pendleton's seat.
The author Of such a bill, /" said he,
will never come back to the senate. =
1: Mr.. Vest was right, and at the begin
ming Of the next congress he moved into
Mr.. Pendleton's vacant chair. --W Wash
