A CHALLENGE TO ESTERHAZY.
PAUL e. AVER OF SOUTH CAROLYN
DEFIES HIM TO FIGHT.

Ex-Sergeant of Volunteers Spends
Several Dollars in Cable Tolls TO
Inform Esterhazy of His willing

DINA Law May Lay Its Hand Upon
the Hot-Headed Young Man.
Columbia. s. c., Sept. IA challenge
was cabled to Count Esterhazy this morn
ing, which may not result in a meeting
on the field of honor, but If the laws of
the state are enforced the challenger Will
be brought before a jury on charge
which, If convicted. will send him to pris-
on, and, at any rate. he can never hold
office of any character whatever within
this state.
Mr.. P. f. Aver, who was sergeant in
the First South Carolina Volunteers, has
been. like the rest of the people, deeply in
terested in the result of the Dreyfus trial,
and when the verdict was announced he
became fighting mad. AS everyone around
here is of the same way of thinking as
himself Count Esterhazy caught his at
tention and his anger.
Yesterday the following challenge was
prepared and this morning cabled to the
French Count at his present residence in
London:
Sir: Believing yole to be answerable
for the misery and humiliation of Capt.
Dreyfus of the French army, and he,
Capt Dreyfus, not being able to call on
you personally for satisfaction 1, as an
American, free born, loving liberty, do
volunteer In my own right to meet you on
the field of honor in behalf of Capt. Drey-
fus at any time and place agreeable to
you. Respectfully, Paul E. Aver, Ander-
son, S. c."
Young Aver is a son of the late Gen.
Aver of Anderson, who was a brave COM
mander during the war of secession.
In South Carolina it is as unlawful to
send a challenge or carry a challenge for
a friend as it is to fight a duel.
The regular prescribed oath for all per-
sons to take on going into office contains
a clause that they have not fought a duel
or sent or carried a challenge since 1881.
the year in which the anti-dueling law
was passed as the result of the Cash
Shannon fight. Even if a man should not
be convicted by a jury of violating this
law he is DISTINGUISHED by sending
challenge.
