FIRST RECORDED AIR FlGH
Frenchmen, Rivals in Love, H7
Strange and Fatal Duel More Than
One Hundred Years Ago.

The first battle in the air and til.
strangest duel in the long history Of
the field of honor was fought 10
years ago near Paris. Two Frenchmen
were ardent rivals for the affections
Of a woman, and so bitter did their
quarrel become that only blood could
wipe ii out. Ordinary methods Were
too tame for these fiery spirits, so ii
was agreed that the duel should be
fought from balloons. The cause OF
the trouble agreed to marry the vie
tor.
When the selected day arrived the
two fighters and their seconds repaired
to the meeting place, only to find Il
great crowd assembled, for word Of
the strange encounter had spread
broadcast. The principals, however
were undeterred. Two balloons. pre-.
cisely alike, had been prepared, and
into these they stepped. TO each was
handed carefully loaded blunderbuss.
The word was given and the moor
ings cast off. Slowly the balloons as.
cended. almost side by side. At the
height of about half a mile, when the
great bags were but so yards apart,
the signal was given and both men
opened fire. Soon one Of the balloons
collapsed. and crashed to the earth,
The record says the woman kept her
promise and married the victor of the
aerial battle.

Easy Way to Measure Distances.

Boy scouts who are interested in
emulating deeds of their older friends
are practicing many engineering
stunts. One of the most interesting is
to measure distances without instru-
ments and where the travel from point
to point is impracticable. The method
followed is one employed by Napoleon
when his engineers sought to learn the
distance across an unfordable river.
The little corporal took a position
on the bank at the water edge, gazed
across the stream until the opposite
shore line was just discernible below
the visor of his cap, then turned on his
heel and spotted a point at the same
levd up stream. After this he paced
off the distance and had 1t approx
mately correct.

MINOR MUSINGS.

If you were to go about for a day
with a notebook and pencil in hand
and mark down every good and evil
thing said and done by those you
met you'd be surprised, at night, how
greatly the good had overbalanced
the evil.
If 1t be true that you cannot take
out of life more than you put into it,
a pill-box for baggage is all that some
folks will need on their last journey
There is small class of mothers
that regards children as ornaments
to the home-like the piano or paint
ings or the phonograph.
At which time do you feel better:
After you've made sum of money
by shrewd deal. or after you have
helped somebody that needed help?
"kickers' have their places in the
economy of things and we couldn t
really get along well without them.
They're good deal like castor oil,
that way.
Why worry about the future when
nobody has ever agreed with anybody
else about what it is going to be,
Anybody can get you "in bad" but
who's ready when you want to get
out?
A dime in time saves about every
thing.
The Lord that loves cheerful
giver probably examines the motive
for the gift
The only person that actually cares
about how you live is your creditor
We sometimes talk slightingly OF
old-fashioned people, but in our
hearts we love them, every one.
The reason that about everybody
is more interested in weddings than
war is that without weddings none
of us would be here and without wal
more of us would be here.
A genius by any other name would
be just as difficult to get along with

SEES LITTLE IN ALEXANDRA
Writer Says Famous Building Ex-
presses Mere Beauty, Without Any
Sense Of Power or Vigor.

The Alhambra is on the shoulder of
mountain. 1t overiooks the town,
Bart Kennedy writes in the Wide
World. 1t was built by the Moors. and
l cake it that it was built overlooking
tie town for the usual reason. The
ruling Moors lived therein and they
wished to be in position to give the
n0nruling Moors "what for" when they
became too critical. There IS lot of
human nature in ruling people just as
there is in ruled people. A beautiful
place, this Alhambra. But to me its
architecture expressed decadence and
weakness. There was nothing strong
or massive about it. Whether race
expresses truly its character IN archi-
lecture or not is not for me to say. To
be able to give reliable opinion as to
this would necessitate the living of a
life that lasted through a couple of
thousand years But certainly the AL
hambra did not suggest power and
vigor. Beauty, yes, and also fancy,
but nothing more.
But on the Cuesta de los MuertOs
(the hill of tn? dead), which was out
side the actual palace of the Alham-
bra, were three massive square towers.
They expressed strength. In them had
lived-centuries before-the Moham-
medan soldiers Of the guard. These
towers impressed me and | often went
to see them in the moonlight, for then
there seemed to be In their strength
and power some weird effect.

Of course, other marines than those

There was very popular girl there,

There wasn't a dance left.

LET'S HOPE so, ANYWAY

When the Kaiser fed to Holland,
E'vry Dutchman held his nose;
For the Dutch don't like Limberger.
Just about to decompose.

"Haye no love for me whatever;
I'D be cheese for them at lunch"
Now you're wrong" said Wilhel-
nina,
"If yen think you're safer here;
We've no place for cheese in
Holland
'Do l make my meaning clear?"
So the Kaiser doffed his helmet,
When ITO hell mit" said the
queen,
And proceeded then from Holland,
Seeking refuge more serene.
But there was no place for Wilhelm;
Ev'ry place the Kaiser fed
He could hear the cry, Let's hang
him
BY the neck until he's dead!"
"By the neck" The clamor smote
him
As he hurried on again;
He could feel the rough knot
tighten;
And mob cried: "Vive Lovain!"
Till at last he found a refuge,
And perhaps it's just as we'll;
For he took his Hun GO. with him,
And they settled down in--just
what you'd say yourslf under
the same circumstances.
