| how to handle sword and pistol; but
he learns to use his weapons so as to in
jure, not to kill The rare fatal duels of
recent years have occurred between young
men of no skill, who wanted to ape the

rival sts $50
The best pistol shot in France is Boni
Castellane. He is good swordsman, but
knows that his exceptional talent is with
pistols, so in the three duels he h as fought
he has managed to have challenges sent to
him that he might name the weapon. His
superiority comes from the fact that he
practices on the field. Many men who
are dead shots on. floor with a bulls
eye in the distance, lose all sense of pro-
portion on slippery grass with a man be-
fore them. Boni is proud of the fact
that he can avoid heart and brain. He
prefers TO lodge bullet in the right lung,
or in the leg
The greatest swordsmen in France are
Laberdesque, Geraut- Richard Max Regis
and the Marquis de Dion Their favorite
mark is the forearm, the lung or cheek, as
in any case muscular stiffness or loss of
blood stops the fight.
In their periodical duels, Laberdesque,
the Jewish champion, and Max Regisc, the
fiery Nationalist, swear to have each 9th
ers' hearts blood, but they leave the field
not too seriously injured, vowing that next
time there will be no quarter. Both men
are such exceptional swordsmen that If
they were to fight to a finish, it is proba

was the insulter, declared that he would

the marquis simply could not ignore it,
and had to send a challenge, thus saving
