To Make the French Duel More Serious

ct is not necessary that a duel
should have fatal or dangerous con
sequences. The unfortunate thing
is that two men should meet with
deadly weapons and behave as II
they we're performing an act OF
vaudeville. This gives occasion Tor
much mirth among foreigners and
the vulgar of our own country.
Frenchmen who cherish the glorious
traditions of the duel of prerevOlu-
tionary days are cruelty hurt by
these references. II the duel took
place in absolute secrecy and the
result only was reported in the most
formal language. there would be no
opportunity for the comic writer

we must. by our correct be-
hayior restore TO the duel the gravity
and the prestige it has lost in re.
