Promptly at the appointed time both
parties, with their seconds and the doe

a mile back from the scene of action,
behind a clump of trees, in her coach
and unattended except by her two ne

Mccarthy. She had come to see her
sons honor INDICATED, to see the stain
upon the Mccarthy name wiped out.
Her son was apt to fall, to be killed,
even. To her an unaVenged insult to
the family name was worse than death
itself. Being away some distance she
could not see well, and she hal instruct

as soon as shots had been exchanged.
"Mordicai, being the challenged par

to fire was given both men discharged
their weapons, but without result. At
the second fire however, Mordicai fell
to the ground mortally wounded. Nc
Carthy was also slightly wounded in
the hip at the second shot. AS soon as
the men had fired the colored servant

and Marse Page is hot in de leg. Hur-

wounded son arrived she had every
thing prepared for his safety and COM

home by the authorities until he was

was fined $780, with the alternative of
six months Imprisonment. The fine
was paid, of course, and Page McCar-

the Mccarthy name and honor were

Scored Fine Success at the Hyperion
Last Evening.
An audience of good size greeted
Miss Amelia Bingham and her fine
company of selected players last even
ing at the Hyperion theater. The play,
"A Modern Magdalen.' is both emo
tional and humorous, and Miss Bing-
ham was supported in its portrayal by
such old favorites as Henry e. Dixey,
Wilton Lackaye, Ferdinand Gottschalk
and William Holland. All of these were
greeted with applause, and Miss Bling
ham as Katinka, the modern Magda-
len received many curtain calls after
each act. Miss Bingham is no stran-
ger to New Haven audiences, having.
appeared here many times in farces on
the order of THE Cuckoo" previous to
her introduction to the New York pub
lie, two years ago, in that excellent
play THE Climbers" Miss Bingham's
role is now intensely emotional, in
which she is admirable. Henry Dixeys
as the careless, selfish. jovial intern
perate father, was host in himself,
and the whole cast was in perfect har-
mony The stage settings were on a
grand scale. Miss Bingham's gowns
were magnificent, and the whole en-
