day afternoon between Count Boni de Cas-
tcilane and Nj. de lioiays, the latter was
wounded in the thigh. The meeting &C.
cured at3o'clock in the Pare DIES Princes,
where many cycling events occurred last
summer. The Count de Dion directed the
duel. NJ. de Rodays, whose wound was
IN the lower ileslly part of the thigh. bled
~abundantly, but is not seriously injured.
The determination to exclude the cur
ious from witnessing the duel was com
plete. Only the witnesses and the neccssa-
ry attendants were spectators OF the meet
ing, so %zealously was secrecy maintained
in regard to the meeting place.
After the wounded man had fallen Count
Boni approached him and asked; M. de
Rodays. are you in paina'
Not too much,i wa the reply.
Count Bonl then stretched out his hand,
which NJ. de Rodays, accepted.
Count Boni and his party then drove
home, and NJ. de liodays was removed to
his residence. Tho entire absence of any
fever, although the wounded mans suf-
tering is intense, leads 10 the belief that

"Ihere has been an attempt to asso-
ciatc the United States with this pro-
gram of civilization upon the theory that

do wrong! For the sentiment implies
action.
"A country at wal is very intolerant-
the home guards more than the veterans
and the politicians most of all.
"As there were thirteen original States
and Dakota will be ~thirty-nine, it will be
so appropriate in the centennial year OF
the constitution to multiply the thirteen
