"FILMING THE MIGHTY"

any fact-article could why this country has
become great. Katharine Holland Brown
tells the story, and it is fine one. 1t brings
home the fact that modern givers of great
sums may not after all be giving so much as
did some of our forebears who had not so
much to give.
ID EMINGToN SCHUYLER has painted
N THE MIGHTY KILL. which is repro-
duced in color on two pages in our next SUNDAY
MAGAZINE. 1t is a picture that emphasizes the
fine quality of illustration we are giving our
readers. Hardly less interesting is the text.
which is paraphrase of the story told Mr..
Schuyler by an Indian chief of great buffalo
hunt in the old days when the red men lived
their own lives.
IF you should take up THE WAY OF THESE
WOMEN in our next number without hav-

pretty certain that you will want to go on. On

at once. Neither was hit. The echo had
most simultaneously. This time General
Walker turned pale, his legs gave way under
him, and he sank to earth, having been
struck just above the right hip, the bullet
lodging in the spine.
Colonel Crockett and the surgeon rushed
to his side, and soon saw that his wound was
mortal.
The General realized this too; for he said
to his second, @Bob, am dead NANNY
legs are dead already!'
General Marmaduke and all the others
held their positions until Colonel Crockett
had expressed satisfaction with General
Marmaduke's conduct and given him per-
mission to leave the field. General Marina
duke Immediately offered the use of his am
bulance to General Walkers friends, and in
it General Walker was taken to Little Rock,
where he died several days afterward.
The Marmaduke party walked to the
LeFevre farmhouse, mounted, and rode back
to camp. Few words were spoken; but it
was on this ride that l learned of the i'm
portant part the little gray weed had played.
General Marmaduke said to me:
price, did you notice that weed between
us? took aim by that"
The General was near-sighted, and even
at the short distance of fifteen PAGES it was
difficult for him to make out his opponent
clearly; so he was quick to take advantage
of the weed, which was halfway between the
two men and directly in the line of fire.
THE news of the duel was great shock to
L President Davis, his Cabinet, and the
Confederate armies west and east of the
Mississippi River. General Marmaduke and
Captain Moore were arrested the next morn
ing and held in close confinement at Little
Rock; but were soon released upon the ur-
gent request of the officers of General Mar
maduke's brigade. Lieutenant General
Holmes, commanding, later issued an order
This General Walker did also, declaring a
day before he died that the meeting was un-
avoidable for the preservation of his honor.
He cherished no bitterness toward General
Marmaduke, and that his descendants for
gave sfreely is proved by touching incident
many years after General Marrnaduke' s
death, when the grandchildren of the man he
killed decorated his grave on Memorial Day.
have letter from Brigadier General W.
L. Cabell, written to me July %, 1910, in
which he states that this duel was the only
one ever fought in which both participants
were graduates of West Point General Ca
bell was a classmate of General Walkers, and
friend of both men. He and General Mar
maduke were captured at Mine Creek, Kan
sas, in October, 1864, and were in prison to-
gether at Fort Warren until the close of the
war; General Cabell wrote me that General
Marmaduke when in prison referred to the
duel only once, and that he got the inn
preston that General Marmaduke con-
sidered that the duel could have been pre-
vented by wiser counsel.
All the participants in this affair have
passed away except Captain Moore and my
self, and hope the descendants of the two
distinguished soldiers who may read what l
have written will feel that both did what
their duty and honor demanded of them.

WORST STORM
 IN 20 YEARS
MANY KILLED AND INJURED IN NEW YORK AND OTHER
 EASTERN CITIES.

NEW YORK, Dec. 27.-The worst and most weird storm of many years occurred here Saturday. No form of storm was not represented-rain, hail, snow and sleet accompanied by thund- CT and lightning with ninety mile gale of wind made it the most severe as well as the most serious storm this city has experienced since the great blizzard, over twenty years ago. Telephone and telegraph wires are prostrated, railroads are paralyzed and street traffic is out of service en- tirely. Seven persons were killed out right and many more injured. Ad- vices from Boston indicate that that city also suffered severely. A British schooner has been driven ashore near there and will in all probability be pounded to pieces by the heavy sea. On account of practically all wires be- ing down and no mail service the ex- tent of the storm outside of New York is not yet known.
