Duel With Bad Eggs.

During a discussion about betting at
the swell Carteret Club, of Camden,
Tuesday night, bantering as to endur-
ance led to proposition for rotten
egg duel between two young men OF
high social standing, who are members
of the club. The principals in the affair
were William White, Of No. 327 Penn
street and Albert Lennon, Of Fourth
and Cooper streets. AS soon as the
UNIQUE duel was arranged committee
from the club went TO the nearest gro
Ger and purchased two dozen Of the
ripest most ancient eggs he had. Re-
turning to the club they secured the
principals and adjourned to Diamond
Cottage Grove, the selected battle
ground. By the time that the egg
duelists and their friends arrived fully
one hundred persons were on the
grounds. DR.. Fred Smjth was select
ed as Whites second, while lawyer
Martin V. Bergen, Jr., filed the same
position for Lennon. The two seconds
stepped of ten PAGES and then ordered
their men 10 the line preparatory TO
the egg battle. Each man was sup
piled with a dozen eggs and at the
word "gol" let them fly thick and fast.
Only four eggs landed on the princi-
pals, although the lookers-on OCCASION
ally got hit. White was struck once,
Lennon three times The former was
declared the winner. After the fight
was over both men, with their friends,
returned to the club and INDUCED in
a bath.
