WOULD FIGHT DUEL
JUDGE ST PAUL APPLIES THE
 EPITHET.
Donelson CafRery, Jr., Responds Pronnpt- Iy Thaf He Was NIisquoted. The Tension is Not
 Relieved.

New Orleans, La, Jan, 15-The first step in the formal dueling code, for merly often used here by men who met in personal encounter, was taken today by Judge St. Paul. of the Civil District Court, in a Controversy be- tween him and Doneison Caffery, Jr.. son of the late United States Senator Cafferv.
 The Judge had printed in a newspa- per. a formal card applying to Mir. Caf- fiery one of the epithets formerly rec ognized as cause for duel. The card was in reply to a statement alleged to have been made by Mir. Caffery last night in political speech regarding an injunction which Judge St. Paul issued last Saturday temporary restraining the Governor from removing from offlce a registrar of voters in New Orleans.
 MT, Caffery immediately replied that his remarks had been incorrectly re- ported to Judge St, Paul, but the ten sion between the two men was not re- lieved.
 This is the second time in the pres ent gubernatorial primary that prelim- mary steps of the dueling code have been entered into. On the former occa- sion Mir. Caffery took exception to re- marks alleged to have been made by J. Y. Sanders, one of the candidates for nomination for Governor.
 Judge St. Paul tonight, after con- sidering MT. Caffery's reply. issued the "amende honorablA." exonorating Mr. Caffery. The amende was in regular form Signed by two seconds of the Judge and likewise accepted by two seconds of his opponent.

Car Strike Imminent.


 The negotiations between the Pensa- cola Electric Company and the mem bers of the Street Railway EmpIoyes Association which have been in pro- gress for the past two weeks. reached climax this afternoon when the com pany issued its ultimatum to the effect that it would consider no proposition other than the renewal of the old con- tract of sixteen and eighteen cents per hour.
 Tonight after the midnight cars were taken to the barn the men met in their hall down town and took a vote on whether of not to strike for the en- forcemept of their demands.
 Many of the men are favora ole to a strike, and it is possible that no cars will be operated in Pensacola tomor- TOW.
 The demand of the employees is that a clause be inserted that on January 1, 1909, the company allow three arbitra- tors to examine it's books and if the business shows satisfactory increase the men are to receive an increase of two cents per hour.

Common Nest for Cat and Hen.

common NEST TOT CSt anu 7en.
Bowdoinham cats are noted for
their sagacity, but it remains for the
intelligent feline owned by Mrs. Sam
uel Donnell of that town to cap the
climax. "@
"Our cat has taken a strange place
to rear her last Kittens" Mrs. Donnell
told the Journal Friday. Her chill
dren were born in a hens nest, and
ever since she has persisted in keep
ing them there. The queer part of it
is the philosophical way in which the
hen seems to take the matter.
when she wants to lay an egg she
pecks at the kittens, who are too
small to resent it, and if the mother
is near she pushes them gently from
the nest. Just as soon as the hen has
laid her egg the cat grabs the kittens
and puts them in the nest again, and
it is no unusual thing for cat, kittens,
eggs and hen to be all together lin one
glorious miXup."

Bio Fish in Shallow Water.

A sturgeon eight feet long and
weighing 200 pounds was taken from
SCuaw creek, mile aud half above
this place yesterday, says the Copper
City correspondent of the Sacramento
(Cal, Bee, by Fred Brooks. The big
fish was seen fioundering in water a
foot and half deep. Brooks tried to
shoot it and failed. Then he and his
family threw rocks at it and could not
kill it. Finally Brooks threw lasso
around its tail and dragged it out, still
alive.
1t is supposed that the big fish came
up Squaw creek during the high water
and failed to return to it's habitat be-
fore the water recedel. Where it was
taken the water was 100 shallow for it
to swim.

The charge that there is politics il
the matter is laughable from Sank

here do not know it. One Red Wing

Awakening of the East.
Damascus, the oldest surviving city
in the world, and the most typically
Oriental one in these dominions, leads
in Turkey in adopting electricity for
purposes of light and locomotion. The
harnessing of the Barada (the Abana
of the Bible) for such ends emphasizes
the change which is fast overtaking
Ottoman industrial and social life.
