Dnellsts Who Did Not XIII.


The two most famous duelists who
never killed their men known to his
tory are the Chevalier de Saint Georges,
mulatto, who was reputed to be the
finest fencer In France, and In more
recent time NJ. Georges de Labruyere,
who ca1kuted himself the champion
Of Nine. Seberlne, scditress of the Girls
du Peuple. Both these champions Of
the sword fought scores of ducls in
which severe wounds were given and
taken, but both were humane and chiv-
alrous and never took life, as their skill
would have enabled them to do.
In his duel with Lieutenant de Nell.
vile NJ. Labruyere was run through
the right lung and almost Immediately
afterward pierced his opponents left
lung. Both had to be. carried of the
field, but they ultimately recovered. In
this connection 1t may be noted that
the ridicule in which certain English
papers indulge in with regard to French
and italian dueling is generally quite
beside the point. Every duelist takes
his life in his hand and can practically
kill his adversary when be chooses, but
If the stroke is not made according to
the laws Of fence he Is certain to be
killed himself In doing It. This Is why
the drawing Of blood Ia considered to
be a satisfaction for injured honor.

Disqualified For once.

During a warm gubernatOrial canvass
in Kentucky one Of the candidates
found himself in the mountain districts
a long way from town, very tired and
hungry. He stopped at little cabin
on the mountain side and. introducing
himself as a candidate for the govern
orship, asked for something to eat.
The woman gave him much better
meal than he had expected and wound
up the repast with q pie of the most
delicious flavor. The candidate quickly
cleared his plate and then said, with
his most engaging smile:
Madam. this Is a most delicious pie.
but DECLARE that do not know what
fruit this is. Certainly nothing like it
grows down where come from. Will
you have the kindness to tell me what
itisp
The woman looked at him for a full
minute, her astonishment at last giving
way to supreme scorn.
"Where did you come from?' she
finally found voice to ask. "You say
you're up for governor an don't know
huckleberries! Pears to me you amt
fitten for Office. Don't know huckleber.
RESP
1t was crisis in the candidates life,
and he fingered another hour, SO the
story goes at all events, and made pro.
fuse explanations before he was satis-
fed that his opponent would not get
the vote Of that cabin.

TRAGEDY
ON STAGE.

Omaho, Neb. August 4.-Thc rehearsal
of u lurid melodrama in theatre here to
day ended in a double tragedy.
Thnd Brookie, the stage hero, shot and
killed Mrs.. Mile Lighthawk, tho leading
woman, and then turned the gun upon
himself with fatal effect.
The shooting grew out OF the Jealousy
of Brooke, who objected to the real kiss-
es used in rehearsal by Bert Adams, the
second man.
The drama under rehearsal was the A RI
zona Felnale Bandit. written by Mrs.
Lightbawk. who had had considerable
stage experience under tho name OF Millie
Allen Mrs LighthRwk herself took the tt.
tie role.
In his role Of William Desmond, Chief
OF Detectives, Brooke carried the action
of the play from the supposed crime OF
the innocent victim TO tho final eXposu re
OF the villain. Bert Adams, as the Writ
uous but isjudged suitor OF the heroine,
was evidently sincere in the character, and
Brooks took affront. He Gil We'd Adams
the opportunities offered by his lines, and
finally entered q protest.
When Adams finally rushed into his
sweetheart's embrace in the final act
Brooke reclaimed:
Oh, cut that out; that don't go.
Adams insisted that all tho busin ess
should stay in, and he was sustained by
the heroine When Brooke remonstrat .
cd further the other actors threw him
out.
Brooke returned In q few minutes with
revolver and fired at Mrs Lighthawk.
The woman died and Brooke then shot
and killed himself.

BRIDE ALL
IN A BLAZE.

Atlantic City, Nj, Aug. 1.-The
bride Of Alfred Lindsay Nicholson
Of London. whose marriage in New
York yesterday was the sequel OF
somewh hat romantic courtshlp which
had its inception in an Eng lish
theatre, met with an exciting acci.
dent this afternoon. Had it not
been for the cool action Of Lleuten-
ant Nicholson, Ralph lnghaEa and
William Massey, the later two of
Philadelphia, it might have had
serious consequences. The bride
and groom we're leaving the Dun
lop Hotel, intent on catching New
York train. When Mrs. Ncholso n
stepped en- the Boardw ak from the
doorway some careless person
threw a lighted match against her
dress. The gown made of light
material, caught FIRE, and was
blazing when her husband and the
two young Philadelphians stripped
their coats and smothered the blaze
in a few minutes. The accident
caused them to m ss the train, but
Mrs. Nicholson suffered SO from the
accident that the Journey to New
York was DELAYED.
Lieutenant Nicholson first saw
! his bride IN the Shaftesbury The.
atrc, where she was playing a
| leading role in the Alice Nelson
Comic Opera Company. She was a
Miss Mavblossom Boley, Of Wash
| ing,on. Atter she had returned to
the United States Lieutenant
| Nicholson followed her across the
ocean. and upon meeting her in
New York tbe nuptlals followed.
