Erenchmen Fight a Duel.


Paris, Nov. 21.-Real blood was shed
in two French duels today, Captain
Raymond de Castellane splitting Count
de PEstaug's right arm in the first duel
and Georges Casell punching his 1.-the
rainier through Jean Marnold's right
arm in the second affair OF honor.
None Of the combatants were seriously
hurt and honor was perfectly satisfied.
The encounter between De Castellane
and De lEstang followed brswl IN O
skating rink. De l'Estang didn't like
Castellane and during the grand pa
rade, when the elite OF French society
was trying to skate and be graceful at
the same time, De pEstang tripped
Count Raymond, causing him to fall
with unSeemly lack OF dignity to the
icy floor. Raymond, with that fiery
impetuosity OF the De Castellane family
that was so often manifested by Count
Boni when he slapped his wife, imme-
diately sent his seconds to wait upon
De l'Estang and swords and coffee
for two were arranged.
The codo dueIlo OF Napoleon was in-
voked and this morning at daybreak,
Just as they do in novels, De Castel-
lane and De IEstange and Their
seconds met beneath the great Ferris
wheel, near the Champ de Mars. The
principals were attired in conventional
black and wore soft shirts, open at the
throat, so that each could see tina
neither wore a coat OF mail.
They selected their rapiers with great
deliberation, bent them double to tesI
the temper, gazed at the rising sun, as
though they really believed it might be
their last look; listened to the carolling
birds as though they thought it might
be the last listen, and then "er
guarder.
There were parties, thruts and foils
1t was really some fencing. AS Ameri
can sporting writers say, the first rounC
ended with honors even and blood un
shed.
In the second round, De Castellan'
showed his superiority with the foil
and spectators looked to see him dis
arm his foe with twist Of the wrist
like Dumas heroes used to do.
But no. Hot blood was not to b.
denied. Dc Castellane thrust forward
like 4 serpent darts upon its prey,
and his sword pierced the muscles o
his foes sword arm.
De pEstang, helpless, dropped hi
rlpier, completely at the mercy of hi
cruel enemy. De Casteliane did no
kill him on the spot. No French duel
lis. would stick sword into a unarme,
enemy.
Honor having been thus repaired
surgeons patched up De L'Estagn'
punctured arm.
George Casella and Jean MarnolC
stood by and watched the blood flow
without murmur. 1t takes a brav
man to see others wounded and reallz
that it will be his turn in few mo
ments. But Casella and Marnold ha'
set their alarm clocks today and risel
a. this unseemly hour for the fell pur
p )se of Staying each other. So the,
C lrefully shelled their waist coats am
b FRED the breasts, for Marnold ha,
written a "polemic" whatever that
is) against Casella in one of the news
naners. and honor was to be avenged
In an instant they were tit. Casellj
was the best swordsman, and he pushes
his frog stickcr through Marnold's arm
even as De Castellane had split d,
PEstange's. Thus more honor wal
avenged.

TO HANG WEDNESDAY.

DR.. Hawley II. Crippen, whose exc
cution is fixed for November %. in a
three column signed statement in a
Sunday paper of London, says that he
is not afraid to die and bows to the in
evtable.
He appeals TO the world to remember
that he was condemned OH inconclusive
evidence and asserts that the real truth
will be revealed. He knew nothing, he
SAYS, OF the remains discovered in the
Hilldrop- Crescent house until Solicitor
Newton told him the day after his ar
rival at Bow street. He was confident
that if he could have commanded un-
limited funds like the Crown and have
brought more medical witnesses the
result would have been different.
The failure OF his appeal, which he
was convinced would reverse the judg-
ment OF the court, crushed and over
whelmed him and broke his heart, be-
cause he bad dreamt of building up n
home with the woman without whom
life was worthless.

FOUR HUNDRED KILLED.

Four hundred peasons were,lt IS said,
killed Saturday evening at Zacatecas,
Mexico, in a pitched battle between gov
eminent and revolutionary forces.
Revolutionary and anti-Diaz move
ments are spreading throughout Mexico.
The latest outbreak occurred yesterday
at Guerrero. Severe fighting is report
e !, but last night it was learned that the
federal troops are in control. Guerrero
is about 30 miles west Of Cotulla. Tex. ,
and is in the district to which Francisco
I. Madero, the alleged revolutionary
leader, was making his way when he
was last seen in Texas. The Madero
estates lie in that part Of Mexico.
No further word has been had OF
Madero himself and it is presumed
that he slipped through the Gordon OF
American officers, which it is reported
had been thrown out to effect, his
arrest and was somewhere in the neigh
borhood Of Guerrero when the affray
occurred.

MISS ELKINs TO BE MARRIED.

Despite the fact that Miss Katherine
Elkins has returned to America, arriy-
inc i'm New York on October 4 last, and
i'm Washington, some European papers
continue to print stories 10 the effect
that She is stopping at Lugano, Swift
erland. intmating that the Elkins
family. with the exception of the sena-
tor. recently returned to Europe in
cOgnito.
A dispatch received in London from
Lugano yesterday states that Miss
Clkins is there arranging with the
bishop OF Ticino for her conversion
to catholicism, and that she was
visited las. Monday by the Duke of the
Abguzzi
Another dispatch from Milan, Italy,
quotes the Secolo as follows:
The Secolo has made an inquiry
at Lugano. where Miss Katherine Ell
iius is stopping, and has discovered
,hat the Duke Of the Abruzzi motored
TO that place on Monday incognito.
On Wednesday Miss Elkins brother,
Davis. arrived The bishop of Lugano
called ut their hotel and later was
visited by Miss Katherine Elkins at
The bishops house, who sought to ar
ange for her conversion to the Catho-
lie faith.
The marriage Of Miss Elkins and
The Duke of the Abruzzi is likely to
axe place late in December or early
IN January. King Victor Emmanuel
las given his consent to the match,
md all difficulties with Senator Elkins
nave been removed,

he Duchess OF Terano. The Elkins
arc expected TO leave soon for Nervi,
italy. The duke has made Miss Ell

DEATu or COUNT TOLsTOI.

Count Leo Tolstoi, the noted Rus
sian author, died at Cos O'Clock Sun
day morning at Aslapova, Russia.
1t had been realized for several hours
that the count was sinking and at $50
Countess Tolstoi was admitted to the
sickroom, but the dying man did not
recognize her. The family assembled
IN an adjoining room awaiting the end.
During one OF the heart attacks Toll
stoi was alone with his eldest daughter,
latina. He suddenly clutched her
hand and drew her toward him. He
seemed to be choking, but was able to
whisper: Now the end has come;
that is all. "
Count Lyof Nikolaevieh Tolstoi,
usually called Count Leo Tostoi,
novelist and social reformer, was born
August %, 1928, at Yasnaya Poliana,
in the province OF Tula, Russia. When
twenty-three years old Tolstoi entered
the army and served in the Caucasus
and in the defense OF Sebastopol against
the British and French allied forces.
He first made n reputation in literature
by series OF vivid sketches written
from Sebastopol and when he left the
army soon after the Crimean war he
devoted himself entirely to literature,
The church, in the persons OF the
metropolitans OF Antonine OF st. Peters
burg, Vladimir OF Moscow and Flayian
OF Kiev, and Loukianoff, chief pro-
curator Of the Holy Synod, decided last
night to leave things as they are
with respect to Count Tolstoi. A
plenary synod has not been called, and
Geographic Instructions have been dis
patched to the bishops, informing them
that requiems were not permissible.
Burial according to the rites Of the
orthodox church is considered out OF
the question.
The government intends, according
TO the announcement, to cooperate
with the church in the enforcement OF
its decision, although both the emperor
and Premier Stolypin have indicated
their desire that the great Russian be
buried with the Russian rite.
Repeatedly advances have been made
which would permit the lifting OF the
ban OF accommodation decrced
against Tolstoi in 1901. The Mctropo-
Titan Antonius himself sent 4 telegram
urging Tolstoi to mako his peace with
the church, and representatives OF the
church were sent to Astopoya for the
purpose OF bringing the count back in
to the fold.
Messages from Optina, Shamardina
and Astapoya, however, stated that un-
i'll the end Tolstoi was held a prisoner
