CHAPTER XII.

Next day at early dawn. Hatteras
gave the signal for departure The
well-fed and well-rested dogs were
harnessed to the sledge. They had
been having a good time of 1t all the
winter, and might be expected to do
good service during the summer.
1t was at in the morning when the
expedition started. After following the
windings of the bay and going past
Cape Washington. they struck into the
direct route for the north, and by
o'clock had lost sight of the lighthouse
and Fort Providence.
During the first two days they made
twenty miles in twelve hours. devoting
the remainder of the time to rest and
meals. The tent was quito sufficient
protection during sleep.
The temperature began to rise. In
many places the snow melted entirely
away, and great patches Of water ap-
peared.
Hunting was not forgotten during
the march. for fresh meat was ne
cessity. Altamont and Bell kept their
guns loaded, and shot ptarmiganp,
guillemots, geese. and = few young
hares.
Hatteras advised them not to 30
more than a milo away. as there was
not a day, nor oven an hour, to lose,
for three months of fine weather was
| the utmost they could count upon. Be-
sides, tho sledge was often coming to
| difficult places. when each man waa
needed to lend a helping hand.
For several days the expedition had
been attended with no fatigue. The
travellers had only suffered from the
intense glare of the sun on the snow
which threatened them with snow
| blindness.
At another time OF the year they
might have avoided this by walking
during the night, but at present there
was no night at all. Happily the snow
was beginning to melt. and the bril-
liancy would diminish as the process
of dissolution advanced.
On the 9Th of June the thermomete
rose to As degrees, and the rain fell II
torrents. Hatteras and his compan
ions, however. marched stoically on
and even hailed the downpour witt
delight, knowing that 1t would hastel
the disappearance of the snow.
AS they went along, the doctor oftel
picked up stones. both round ones an
fat pebbles, as II worn away by tn
tide. He thought from this they mus

The t.mperor's views about the duello
are very peculiar and worthy Of being
placed on record here They are in
keeping with the practice which he is
originating Of christening with religious
ceremonies the great guns furnished by
krupp for use afioat and ashore against
Germany's enemies and with his custom
o. having engraved on the blades OF the
swords presented to his sons and to his
favorite generals and officers the words.
In the name OF the Father, Of the Son
and OF the Holy Ghost" and on the
other side verse from the Bible, sur
mounted by the imperial cipher.
He bases his defence of dueIling, once
sanctioned by the court of honor, upon
questions taken from the Bible, and
cites. among other things, that verse Of
the writings Of St. Paul in which the
Apostle declares that he would rather
die than that any one should rob him of
his good name. William infers from this
that the most eloquent and most forcible
OF all the fathers Of the Church was pre-
pared to fgtlt to the death for the honor
OF his name.
Nowhere in the Bible" adds his
majesty. lis there any prohibition Of
duelling; not even in the New Testa-
ment, which, unlike the Old Testament,
is not a book Of law. Indeed. every at

ness. The fact Of tE-e matter is that lhe
dueIlist who is unfortunate enough 10
kill or 10 fatally injure his adversary IS
liable 10 be muIcted in heavy damages
by the family Of the victim. Thus, there
is the memorable case of the duel be-
tween NJ Asselin and NJ. de st Victor
The latter was killed. Nine de st. VIC
tor thereupon instituted not criminal pul
civil proceedings against NJ Asselln, VINO
was a well known Partisan clubman and
a near relative OF the late Henri Schnel-
der. the great ironmaster Of Crouset.
She obtained from the courts verdict Of
100000 francs, which Asselin was
forced to pay.
And I could mention several other IN
stances where the surviving adversary
of a fatal duel has been mulcted in civil
damages in an analogous manner
Thanks TO this condition of affairs. the
one thing which the French duellist
breads next to getting killed himself is
the killing of his adversary. He even
fears to infiict any serious injury upon
his foe, lest it perchance should have
fatal result. Pecuniary considerations
more than any other are the reasons why
the French duellist shoots wide of the
mark and stays his arm when he feels
the point of his sword against his ad-
versary's body. 1t is an expensive
amusement to kill man whose family
sets value upon him after death and
which insists upon being indemnifed.
This is the real reason why there is SO
very little blood shed in French duels.
WHY a mere scratch is regarded as suffi-
cient 10 satisfy outraged honor, and why
the attending surgeons have actually
been charged, not altogether without
cause, with the bringing of a small phiai
of blood with them on to the field to be
used for the wound in the event Of the
latter not being sufficiently deep to draw
the gore Of the injured duellist.

Emperor 6Oilliann Still V2bolds
TIE Almost Obsolete Duel

cobaI1enSorf, at that time Minister Of
war who in expressing his approval of
+be resolution, called upon the Kaiser. as
o,r,rnauder- -in-chief. to take more radi-
cal steps for checking the practice of
duelling. William, however. declined to
oornpIv with the request, dismissed the
,-.neraI shortly afterward from office and
condemned both the action of the synod
and the Potsdam pastor who had de-
cJined to officiate at Baron Schrad der's
ohseQuies, giving as the reason for his
decision in the matter the argument of
which I have just made some extracts.
Emperor Francis Joseph. the Kings OF
Wurtemberg, OF SaXony, of Spain and of
italy and the Prince Regent Of Bavaria
alI have followed the example of the
German Emperor in deprecating the
fighting of any duel until the subject Of
dispute has been carefully considered
by court Of honor and sanction given
by the latter to the encounter: but insist
that once the court has decided that a
duel must take place the fight becomes
absolutely imperative and cannot be
evaded without the forfeiture of honor,
commission and every kind of social
standing. It is thanks to this, rather
than to any agitation on the part of the
International Antt-Duelling League. that
single combats have become so COM
paratively rare everywhere, except in
France.
IF they remain numerous in France it
is because there they are for the most
part innocuous, and merely serve to ad-
vertise the combatants and the seconds
without much personal danger. The in
nervousness of French dueIs has indeed
become a subject Of ridicule all the
world over.
There is a reason for this innocuous-
