BLOODY DUEL.
Two Men Meet in the Road and Pro-
 ceed to Settle Old Fued.

Bradentown, Fla, June 23.-News reaches here of bloody duel to the death near Miakka, in Manatee County. Judge Seth E. Stevens. a county justice and a wealthy farmer. and John A. Webb, a neighbor, also prominent in county af- fairs, met on the road three miles from Miakka and renewed an old feud that existed between them. Webb was riding when overtaken and asked by Stevens to stop and settle then and there the dis pute between them. He did so, telling his driver to go ahead. When the driver had proceeded several hundred yards he looked back to see both men grappling in the road. He returned to find Stevens dead with bloody knife in his hand and Webb seriously stabbed in several places. Webb is yet alive and may recover.

Mobile, June 22.-(Special )-Women who can go to teas. card parties and the theater when the mercury is crawling out of the top of the thermometer have energy which if rightly used would make the con- stitutional convention vote for woman . suffrage or know the reason why. How ever, for my part I am one of the poor. ignorant women who, as Miss Griffin says, don't know what they do want, and am satisfied in my fatuous ignorance with things just as they are along that line. Sunday broke the record for heat In June, and the air fairly scorched one's face and the earth burned ones feet. Monday was almost as bad, put the Knights of Fythias, like true knights. did not appear to mind the heat at all, and had tugs of war and races with as much complacency as if zephyrs were blowing off the Rocky Mountains. They had lots of prizes. and all rislxed their dimes in hopes of winning the handsome furniture, china and other desirable things displayed so temptingy.
 On Tuesday morning Miss Annie Louise Harrison was the hostess. at a dainty breakfast given in honor of Miss Susie Glover of Atlanta. who is visiting Miss Harrison. The table was covered with lovely Renaissance lace cloth, over satin, and in the center a large leghorn hat full of marguerites tied with a wide, yellow satin bow. At each place was a smaller hat filled with the same flowers, and a handsome gold hat pin fastening the rib- ron. The menu was elaborate and yet I suited to the warm day, consisting of brolled chicken. frozen asparagus, to- matoes and mayonnaise salad, iced tea, fruit punch, ice cream and cake. The guests were five in number, all gowned in filmy summer gowns of organdie and looked cool enough to refresh a thirsty man. They were Misses Burgess, Glover Clarke. Whiting and Bestor.
