BLUFF ON FIELD OF HONOR
one OF the Many Good Stories Henry
~Labouehere Could Tell of tho
Days Of His Youth.

A duel Is always absurd, ever when
1t Is tragic; but it Is rare indeed for
one Of the combatants to be troubled
py It's a~bsurdity. Such, however, was
the case with the famous English
radical, Henry L~abouchere. who once
fought a duel during his early diplo-
matte career, while he was attached
to the embassy in Stockholm.
There was a want of logic about
the entire proceeding that went to my
heart" he confessed, later. ITO be
killed Is bad enough, but to be killed
paradoxically is worse. l never felt
more dismal in my life"
Paradoxical the combat certainly
was. since Labouchere had been the
challenger, his ground of offense be-
Ing that his antagonist, an Austrian
oficer, had presumed to criticize the
British minister for having given 40
cial countenance to a fellow Briton
who, disappearing of duels, had re-
Gently declined a challenge from con-
scientious scruples. The young diplo,
mat, asserting with spirit that his
chief had behaved properly, and that
Englishmen were not so silly as to
light duels, had left the rest to his
secondhand found himself pledged
to fight the mex morning, with pis-
tolls, at seven o'clock. He had hoped
for an apology, and admits he was dis
mayed; but he did NOT allow his feel
ings to be OWNED, and duly made his
appearance upon the field of honor.
The Austrian stood apart; l stood
apart. The surgeon already eyed me
as a subject The seconds consult
ed; then the Frenchman stepped out
IL PAGES. He had very short legs, and
they seemed to me shorter than ever.
After this came the loading of the
pistols. Sometimes, l thought, Sec
onds do not put in the bullets; that
comforted me, but only for a moment,
for the bullets were rammed down
with cheerful energy. BY this time
we had been placed facing each other.
A pistol was given to each of us. I
am to give the signal said the Prus-
oAoA chuii SOuHl OHC, LWO, tlItc,
and then at the word fire. you will,
both fire. Gentlemen, are you readyri
We both nodded. One, two, three,l
fret and both our pistols went on.
No harm had been DONE"
Labouchere thought 1t was all over,
when his opponent, stepping up, re-
marked that he supposed he ought
to allow him a second shot, but should
nothing come of 1t, he would not con
sent to a third. Reluctantly on the
part of both participants, a second
shot was fired; and they both missed
If indeed either had aimed-agafn.
Then Labouchere boldly demanded q,
third shot.
"The seconds consulted together;
for a moment / feared they were GO
ing to grant my request, and / was
greatly relieved when they informed
me they considered that two shots
were amply sufficient. / was delight
ed, but l pretended to be most I'M
happy, and kept up the farce of be-
ing ar aggrieved person"
The whole affair was certainly
farcical; but the fun depended upon
the leading actors being both very
bad ENTHUSIASTICALLY Companion.

Among the platform pledges yet un-

measures as corrupt practices act
and a primary election law. He point
ed out that the Democrats attempted
to enact acknowledgment laws both
through a proposed registration law
and primary election law. and that the

for limited franchise. He told of the
