DETROIT, Mich, Feb. 1.-TWO boys,
aged eight and ten, fought a duel
with knives last night. The lads quar-
relied over some trivial matter and de-

The fight lasted some time before their
cries of rage and pain attracted the at
tention of neighbors. The ten-year-
old received probably fatal wounds.

pose of wreclling the train carrying

TRENTON, n. j., Feb. 0-In all prob.
ability bill providing for the taxa
tion of bachelors will make its appear
ance in the senate or house this week.
The subject has engaged the attention
of the law makers in Massachusetts,
Virginia and some of the western
states, and the bill now being drawn
is fashioned after the measures that
are before the legislatures of the south
and west. The tax that the bachelors
will be asked to pay will possibly be
as high as So per capita The taxing
of single men is not an experiment in
the state. For 80 years the single men
of New Jersey paid So year for the
privilege of enjoying the sweets of
single blessedness, but in 1887 William
McIlroy, who lived in Warren county,
became tired of paying for the privi-
leges that he enjoyed as Il bachelor,
and had the measure repealed.

Liebig, the Great Chemist, Is Authority
For the Statement.
Liebig, tho greatest chemist OF the CEN
tury, writes "Science has demonstrated
the fact that man, the being which per-
forms the great wonders, Is formed of con-
densed air ard solidifled and liquid gases,
that he lives upon condensed as well as
uncondensed air and that by means of the
same mysterious agent he moves or causes
to be moved the heaviest weights with the
velocity of the wind. But the strangost
part of the matter Is that thousands of
millions Of these tabernacles Of condensed
air are going on two legs, destroying other
forms of condensed air which they may
need to build up their own wasted tissues
or for shelter or clothing, or, on account
of their epotism and fancied power, de-
stroying each other In pitched battles, us
ing implements which are but other forms
of condensed air, tho material of which
they them selves are formed or composed.
