WOMEN FIGHT STREET DUEL.
Arkansas Bellies Slash Each Other
With Knives.

Bedford, Ark, Nov. 2S.-In a
street duel with knives at Alicia, near
here, to-day, Miss. Nora Owens was
fatally injured by Miss Stella Belk
and died within few minutes. Both
were prominent at Alicia.
The duel was the result Of a mis-
understanding that has existed be-
tween the two young women for some
time. Miss Owens was cut in four
different places, the fatal cut being
in the left breast, where an artery
leading to the heart was severed.
Miss Belk was arrested.

Quotation Guest Rooms.

A young matron on Long Island who
is having Ter spacious country home
decorated over for the season, has con-
ceived novel idea for her guest rooms
which will solve the difficulty of SEEM
ing favoritism in the distribution of
rooms. She has selected quotations
from well known authors, had them H.
lumined and hung on the doors of the
various rooms. In her guest book
there are corresponding quotations and
before any of the members of a house
party are shown to their rooms they
must make selection of quotation
and write their name beneath it. From
this choice of quotation the room is de-
termined and the guest finds the words
on his door. Here is one, for instance,
that she has hung on the door of a
room done in wistaria blossoms: "To
spend in all things else, but in old
friends to be miserly." All this pro-
notes jollity and good fellowship.
From time to time, the hostess de-
clares, she will change the quotations,
for guests who come frequently soon
would learn what romos to pick and
this would give an unfair advantage in
the game with newcomers.

Hanniness and Iov.

Happiness, according to the orig
inal use of the term, is that which
happens, or comes to one by a hap,
that is, by an outward Detailing, or
favorable condition. 1t is what money
yields, or will buy; dress, equipage,
fashion, luXuries of the table; or it
is settlement in life. independence,
love, applause, admiration, honor,
glory, or the more conventional and
public benefits of rank, political stand
ing, victory, power, all these stir de-
light in the soul, which is not of the
soul, or its quality, but from without.
Hence, they are looked upon as hap
pening to the soul and, in that sense.
create happiness. Joy differs from
this, as being of the soul itself, orig
mating in its quality. And this APP
pears in the original form of the word,
which, instead of suggesting a hap,
literally denotes leap or spring.
The motion is outward and not
toward, as we conceive it to be in hap
piness. 1t is not the bliss of condi-
ton, but of character.-Dr. Horace
Bushnell

Queer Habits of Authors.

Both Dumas and Balzac showed no
inclination to pass the wine-bottle. On
the other hand, Voltaire drank huge
quantities of coffee when engaged in
writing. AS a matter of fact, over-in-
diligence in that beverage during a
protracted literary effort was the real
cause of his death. Schiller also
drank coffee ito thaw the frost out of
his wits but he fancied imbibing the
infusion while seated with his feet
in hot water This, he believed, stimu-
lated his imagination in sluggish
moods, and he refreshed ii during
work by copious draughts from flask
of Rhenish wine.

CLOCK MADE MUCH TROUBLE.
Alarm Had Been Set to Do Its Duty
at Certain Hour, But Jim
Didn't Know 1t.

One OF the elevator men in a big
office building up town found that
there was something the matter with
his alarm clock, says the New York
Times. knowing that one of his col
leagues was good deal of me-
chanician, he decided to save the
price of having his clock fixed by get
ting Joe to fix it for him.
Joe agreed with great enthusiasm;
took the clock home and tinkered with
it, and when the two went "off the
job at six o'clock one afternoon last
week, Joe turned the clock over to
Jim with the assurance that it was
fixed. So it was; and Joe had set the
alarm for Gas, but jim didn't know
that and Joe forgot to tell him.
Joe and jim were travelling toward
the far end of Brooklyn on an elevated
train at GAS that night, and were
Just passing Greenwood cemetery
when the alarm went off. Everybody
in the car gave either a yell or a
jump. Joe turned to Jim with a look
of surprise.
What are you making all that noise
for?' he yelled, in voice that domi-
mated even the uproar of the alarm.
Red in the face, perspiring, glaring-
eyed, Jim was trying to suppress the
deafening clamor. The guard was ell
bowling his way through the crowd to
lind out if somebody had set off dy-
Mantle bomb. A pretty girl in the
next seat had bounced up and was
trying to climb the roof, and a stolid
German had promptly sat down in it,.
There We're all the symptoms either of
panic or a circus.
AS for Jim, he wrestled vainly with
the changing thing, and turned off
everything in his excitement but the
right stop. Meanwhile Joe, the au-
thor of his confusion, was looking at
him with an air of mild inquiry.
Doing it on bet, Jim?" he asked,
kindly.
With an oath, Jim arose and hurled
the thing through the window. 1t
lighted in Greenwood, still going off,
and policeman, at whose feet it
landed, gave a Shrek and leaped six
feet Then he arrested it as dyna
mite bomb, and the train moved on.

Proyokes Lightning Strokes.

At the beginning of September some
of the petroleum wells fired by VIC
lent thunderstorm near the end of
June at Boryslaw, Galicia, Were still
burning, like torch flames 40 or 50
feet in height 1t is said that not
fewer than five wells are struck by
lightning every year at Boryslaw, the
cause being ascribed to the obligatory
use of sheet iron coverings for all the
installations. The iron surfaces com
municate with the system of metallic
tubes, thus forming, during a thun der
storm, a sort of Leyden jar, which pro-
yokes lightning strokes.

Find Water Where Badly Needed,

A Hindu engineer experimenting in
artesian boring at Patiala struck a
spring of water 100 feet below the sur
face which discharges 5000 gallons an
hour through three inch tube. 1t is
believed that the discovery may revo-
lutionize local agriculture, which has
languished owing to the lack of irri-
cation, as the artesian stratum ex.
tends apparently from Patiala to the
