Old Trinity churchyard.


There is no more dismal and hideous
sight than new graveyard full Of
glitteriDg, obtrusive white monuments,
square, ponderous and costly. But a
burying ground which has attained a
ripe age, say, a century or so, is capa-
bic of affording distinct sensation Of
aesthetic pleasure. Toned and tenn
pered by wind and weather into neu-
trial harmony. the intrusive lettering on
the stones half obliterated, there re-
mains no CHASTITY funeral suggestion,
but only a gentle impulse to quote
Omar on the eyanescence Of things.
Such graveyard is the old Trinity,
past which the busy crowds Of Broad
way and Wall street surge all day. It
is thing Of beauty, though perhaps
not one In hundred of those eager
faced men hurrying past ever stops to
look at it or think Of 1t. If he did, one
imagines he would slacken his pace
and perhaps take half holiday. The
ancient plot Of ground, sown thick
with low gray and brown stones and
looking like a field of mushrooms,
makes that human torrent rushing by
seem melancholy and meaningless
New York Globe.

All Help One Another.


What wonderful order there is in
all human labor! While the husband
man burrows his land and prepares for
every one his daily bread the town
artisan, far away, weayes the stuff In
which he is to be clothed, the miner
seeks underground the iron for his
plow, the soldier defends him against
the invader, the judge takes care that
the law protects his fields, the tax
comptroller adjusts his private inter-
ests with those of the public, the mer-
chant occupies himself in exchanging
his products for those Of distant
countries, the men of science and art
add every day few horses to this
ideal team, which draws along the ma
tertal world as steam impels the 81
gantic trains of our iron roads.
Thus all unite together, all help one
another. The toll of each one benefits
himself and all the world. The work
has been apportioned among the diff
ferent members of the whole society
by tacit agreement
II in this apportionment errors are
committed, If certain individuals have
not been employed according to their
capacities, these defects Of detail di.
minish in the sublime conception of
til whole. The poorest man included
in this association has his place, his
| work, his reason for being there. Each
is something in the whole.-Emile Sou

A FAMOUS DUEL.
The Fatal Meeting Between commo-
dores Barron and Decatur.

The Fatal Meeting Between commo-
dores Barron and Decatur.
On March 90, 1920, was fought one
Of the most memorable duels in the an
nails of the United States. Commodore
Decatur and Commodore Barron met
on the fatal field near Bladensburg
that day. Both participants were
wounded, Decatur MORALLY. dying
within a few hours after the encoun-
ter. The causes which led to the i'll
feeling between these two naval heroes
have never been accurately determined,
but it is generally supposed that De
catur's harsh criticism Of Barron on
account of the latter not returning from
abroad to take part in the war brought
about the breach. Certain it is that
Decatur's words were repeated to Bar
ron, and correspondence between the
two ensued, which probably resulted in
the challenge. The impending duel
was kept profound secret. Only
few Of the most intimate friends Of the
respective participants had even an
inkling of it. Decatur was the first to
arrive upon the scene He was accom-
panied by Commodores Rodgers and
Porter and several other friends. Bar
ron arrived few minutes later. The
combatants bowed stiffly to each other
and stood waiting for their friends to
measure off the ground and make the
final arrangements.
81 hope, sir" said Barron as they
took their places, shat when we meet
in another world we shall be better
friends than we have been in this"
Decatur is said to have haughtily re-
garded his adversary moment and
then replied:
''Sir, have never been your enemy"
A moment later the word was given,
and two shots rang out simultaneously.
Barron fell almost Immediately. De-
catur Strengthened himself, but the pis-
tol fell from his grasp, and in a mo-
msnt he was upon the greensWard
| writhing in agony. He was raised by
his friends and carried nearer the
road, where Barron was lying.
! II wish I had fallen in the service
Of my country" Decatur muttered,
whereupon Barron looked up.
Everything has been conducted
most honorably," he said.
| Then, turning his eyes upon Decatur:
II am MORALLY wounded. Commo
dore Decatur, forgive you from the
bottom of my heart"
AS Decatur was being lifted into a
| carriage cambridge, whom Decatur
had once rescued from Moorish pris-
on, stopped down and kissed his cheek.
With his head upon Rodgers shout
der and In company with physician,
Decatur was driven slowly back to the
city and carried into his residence on
Lafayette square, where he died a
few hours afterward.
| The news Of the duel spread like
Mildfire through the city. The follow
ing day John Kandolpn offered. con-
solatory resolutions In congress, which,
however, were promptly objected to,
and the press vigorously denounced the
practice Of dueling.
Barron ultimately recovered from his
injury, but it Is said the memory Of
the fatal duel darkened his life ever
afterward. EIe lived until the year
1851 and had charge Of several vessels
At his own request he was court mar
tailed upon the charges made against
him by Decatur and exonerated.-Ex-

Political rumors are rife and the
last to come from Minot is that Con
gresham Marshall will withdraw
from the race for the senate to be-
come a candidate for national CON-
mitteeman. While it seems to be the
general belief that former Congress
man Johnson has the call with the
insurgents, it is not likely that Mr.
Marshall is yet prepared to step down
and out.
