Duel by Proxy in France.

It is rot often that one of the prin-
cipals in a French duel backs out,
but an incident of this kind happened
yesterday, says a dispatch from Paris.
An encounter had been arranged be-
tween NJ. Gomez Garlic and M. Aus
tin de Croze. but the latter failed to
appear at the appointed time, and
hall an hour later a telegram was re-
ceived from him to the effect that he
did not intend to fight. The disap'
pointed principal was determined to
have satisfaction from somebody. and
he suggested to NJ. George Dubois, thu
well-known fencing master. who was
one of the absent mans seconds, that
he would step into the breach. M.
Dubois was agreeable, but owing to
his superior skill with the sword he
proposed that the duel be fought with
pistols. No pistols being obtainable
for the moment, the pair faced each
other with swords. In the second
round M. Dubois "pinked" his adver-
cary in the arm, and the outraged
honor of the latter was declared to be
satisfed.-London Chronicle.

Prerogative Of Genius.

Thomas Hardy, the novelist, recluse
and genius, lives on the outskirts OF
Dorchester in a red brick house sur
rounded by tall trees that hide his
house from the curious. He dresses
as simply and independently of fash.
ion as most men of genius have done
from the beginning of history. His
pet aversion is the wearing of an over.
coat and when the weather begins to
be cold he puts on a waistcoat made
of %sheepskin in the old-fashioned coun'
try style. AS the cold increases he
puts a woollen waistcoat On owe the
~sheepskin and adds others according
to the temperature until sometimes he
wears as many as four at a time.

Charles Calamity.

Charles is a very observant boy.
Yesterday one of mammals friends
came to the house to call. Mamma
was out and Charles opened the door.
Mamma is not at home" he said.
will you please give her my card
when she comes?" inquired the caller.
"Yeth, ma'am," said Charles.
The caller opened her card case,
and as she withdrew the engraved
card, a bit of tissue paper futtered
down onto the steps.
Very grandly Charles picked it up
and handed it to her, saying: you
have dropped one of your cigarette
papers, ma'am."

The Republican state committee
have fixed on Casper as the place to
hold the convention and the 29th of
August as the date. This will suit

Evanston or Sheridan, but Cheyenne
would have suited all much better.

Developments in Seattle lead rail-

Seattle. y =. +'+ "
The question of the construction of
railway from the Canadian Pacific rail-
road in Canada to Seattle is engaging
the attention Of the management of
the Canadian Pacific. The president,
Sir Thomas Shaughnessy, says that he
is not yet in position to make posi-
ment is the first definite knowledge that
the Seattle people have had Of the
Canadian Pacific g intentions to build
to that city. 49,: ID
Sir Thomas says he will take the
people into his confidence when a de-
cision is reached. It is probable that
an independent company will build the
line which the parent road will operate
by a long lease. This is the method
used by the Canadian Pacific in On
tario. ,-..
Buys No Property.
The Canadian Pacific seems to be
making no effort to acquire property in
Seattle, and this leads to the under
standing that the road will use the Pa
cifc Coast company's property de-
signed for the Milwaukee road. The
Milwaukee contemplates purchase of
this property and it is known that JET
ferson Levey, who is closely allied with
the Canadian Pacific railroad, has been
mixed up with the Pacific Coast COM.
pany. Some months ago he wired a
Seattle man to buy Pacific Coast stock
as there would be a lively movement
in it shortly. There have been many
rumors rife that the Milwaukee and
Canadian Pacific railroad would share
terminals here and all the facts seem
to point the same way.
The contemplated purchase Of the
Pacific Coast holdings by the two roads
would explain the Canadian Pacific
railroads failure to secure terminals
here before perfecting it's plans for en-
tering the city.
