THE blouse is the party to the third part of
every suit. Not just a blouse, but a
blouse of charm and beauty if the suit is
to be really successful. Sheer materials such
as georgette very often pin-tucked, and hand
kerchief linen with hand-worked embroidery are
used with suits Of exquisite detail and fine
material. while flat crepe is an excellent choice
for the utility blouse for general wear. Lingerie
touches will lend charm to even the simplest
blouse, and most stores are featuring collar
and-cuffs sets in many attractive combination.

CRIMINAL DOCKET
SURVEY PLANNED
Department of Justice to
Study Situation in District
Attorneys Office.

The Department of Justice has in
stituted in cooperation with District
Attorney Rover survey of the criminal
dockets here in order to determine their
status.
A representative from the Depart
ment of Justice is working with the
personnel of Rover's Office in making a
complete check-up of the situation. 1t
Is understood that the purpose Of this
is merely to determine the status of
the dockets and to find out whether
more assistance is needed In the Office
of the District attorney.
It is known that the District attorney
had reported his Office was crowded
with work. At the time of the famous
Mcpherson case the heavy business of
the local District attorneys Office came
foreibly to the attention of the At
torney General himself and special
prosecutor was assigned to handle the
Mcpherson case.
In explaining the assignment of a
department representative to Rover's
Office, it was made clear that the move
was not to be construed as a form Of
espionage.
The report that "check-up" on the
activities of Rover's Office was in
progress grew out of the recent watch
put on the District Supreme Court at
the instance of Representative Sim
mons of Nebraska.

Speaking on a program sponsored by

IN the maintenance of peace.
I'VE must help to support and

BY THOMAS r. HENRY.

It was unhealthy to reflect on the
character Of a gentleman in politics
back in the days when the imprisoned
oratory of Henry Clay resounded in
the newborn Kentucky Legislature.
The Library of Congress has just Sc
cured the original faded letters ex-
changed in one of the most famous
Of Clay's duels, in which both partici-
pants were wounded.
This duel was with Humphrey Mar
shall, Indian fighter and afterward
United States Senator, and resulted
from Marshall's reply to a speech by
Clay in which he urged that the people
of Kentucky wear only homespun
clothes in order to foster the industry
of the territory. heTre is no record
Of just what Marshall said which Clay
first time that the details of the duel
itself have been available.
Challenge Sent by Clay.
The original challenge, signed by
Clay, is as follows:

currences in the House of Representa-
tives on this day the receipt of this
note will excite you with no surprise.

you gave me on that occasion and
in your disclaimer of the character
attributed to you. To enable you to
fulfill these reasonable and just expecta-
tions my friend, Maj. Campbell, is au-
thorized by me to adjust the ceremonies
proper to be observed"
Marshall replied on the same day, as
follows:
"Sir: Your note Of this day was
handed me by Mai. Campbell. The
object is understood and without deign-
ing to notice the insinuation it con-
tains as to character the proper ar
rangements are, on my part, submitted
to my friend Colo. Moore"
The same evening the two seconds got
together and drew up in writing the
rules for the duel, as follows:
RULES to be observed by Mr.. Clay
and Mr.. Marshall on the ground in the
settling Of the affair now pending be-
tween them.
Each gentleman will take his station
10 PAGES distant from the other and Will
stand as may suit his choice, with his
arms hanging down and after the words,
Attention, fire. being given, each may

"A snap or flash shall be equivalent

sition in which he was when he fred.
except that he may let his arm fall
down by his side.

either of the parties, except by accident,
shall subject the offender to instant

, OF and each gentleman took his posi-
ton. The word being given, both gen.
tlemen fired. Mr.. Marshall's fire did
not take effect. Mr.. Clay succeeded SO
far as to give Mr.. Marshall a slight
wound in the belly.
Preparations were made for second
fire. Mr.. Marshall again fired without
effect. Mr.. Clay snapped, which agree
ably to the rules agreed on. was equiva-
lent to a fire. A third preparation was
made while each gentleman stood at his
station waiting for the word. Mr..
Marshall fired first and gave Mr.. Clay
a flesh wound in the right thigh. Mr..
Clay fired without effect. Mr.. Clay in
sisted on another fire, very ardently,
but his situation resulting from the
wound placing him on unequal grounds,
his importunate request was not COM
piled with.
I'VE deem it just to both gentleman
to pronounce their conduct on the &C.
casion cool, determined and brave in
the highest degree. Mr.. Clay'S friend
was under an impression that Mr.. Mar
shall at the third fire violated rule
which required that he who fired first
should stand in the position in which
he was when he fred, but Mr.. Mar

circumstance is considered as one in
which gentlemen may be mistaken on
such occasions and is not to be noticed
in this affair"
Bravery Of Clay Lauded.
The last manuscript regarding the
duel is from Clay's friend, James john
son, at Frankfurt, who was greatly con-
cerned over the political effects of the
encounter. He writes:
When hearing of the affair nothing
seemed so much to affect me as your
pistol swapping the second round. This

which you acted. I had rather heard
OF your death than have heard of your
backing In the slightest degree.
