DUELs AND DUELISTS.
5 Fighting Fitzgerald was successful
in 18 duels before it was discovered that
he always wore a coat of mail. For
years his fame in society had rested on
his invariable success as a duelist, and
this discovery was his undoing.
The most tragic duel in England was
between Lord Byron, grand-uncle of the
poet, and a kinsman; It was fought in
a tavern room by the light of one
tallow candle. Lord Byron was tried
for murder, but got Off on man-
slaughter, from'the penalties of which
he escaped because he was a peer of the
realm. .
. No duelist could ever be made smile
over the famous story of the English-
man and Frenchman who were to fight
a duel in a pitch-dark room. Not wish-
ing to kill his man, the Englishman
fired up the chimney when the word
was given, and, to his surprise, brought
down the Frenchman, who had hidden
there. When this story is told in
France it is always the " Englishman
who is up the chimney.
During the occupation Of Paris‘by
the allies there were duels every day,
the Frenchmen usually being the chal-
lengers and the victors, as they were
very skillful with thevsmall sword.
Sometimes, however, they made a. mis-
take, as when they jccred at an Eng-
lish Officer ovcr losing his leg at Water-
loo. Thc jeerer discovered that the loss
of his leg did not nix-:1 fore in the least
with the Englishman’s aim.
TITLED WOMEN OF EUROPE.
The princess of Wales has lately had
her picture painted. It is remarkable
in that it is the first time she has con-
sented to be represented wearing the
large sleeves of fashion. The portrait
is said to be wonderfully pretty.
The queen’s daily drives while she
is staying at Cimiez are taken in an
Open victoria preceded by an outridcr
on a gray horse and followed at a dis-
tance by a member of the French de-
tective force, also on horseback.
It is probable that the widowed Em-
press Frederick Of Germany may spend
. the next two years in England near her
mother, the queen. If so she will live
at Ditton Park, the beautiful place near
_Windsor,of the late duke of L’ucclcuch.
Lady. Sophie Cadogan, the daughter
of the Irish viceroy, is the constant
companion of her brilliant mother, who
dispenses the hospitality of the Dublin
castle so well. Lady Sophie is not a
blond like her mother. {er type of
beauty combines an exquisitely fair
complexion and clear—cut features with
dark hair and eyes. She isnoted for her
gmccfulness.
GAVE THEIR HEARTS.
Richard Coeur de Lion bequeathed his
heart to the canons of llouen cathedral.
The heart was surprisingly large, and
when disinterred six centuries later
had withered to the semblance of a
leaf. ,
When Mme. Vermenoux (Neckar‘s
friend) died, as yet a young woman,
she bequeathed her heart to Jacob
Meister, making him at the same time
. - swear-that he would by his will direct
that it should be buried with him in
his grave.

the heart disintegrated.
Sir William Temple directed ‘thathis
heart should be buried under a sun dial
in his garden. Napoleon desired that
his heart be-conveye-d to Parma to
Marie Louise, but he did not foresee
that only a year after his death she
would enter a ballroom attended by the
duke of Wellington or that she would
marry her Chamberlain.

WITH THE ELECTRICIANS.
It is said that experiments are being
made in Dresden, Germany, with stor-
age batteries and underground conduits
with a view to replacing the overhead
system of propulsion in Chemnitz.
The Brooklyn bridge trustees have at
length adopted electricity as a motive
power. The superintendent advertised
for bids for electric power, which were
received; but it was considered that if
the bridge trustees built their " own
power-house, the corporation would
save $20,000 per year upon the cost by
the bids received, and this idea is being
seriously considered.
Secretary Herbert, Gen. Flagler, chief
of ordnance, and other prominent army
and navy officers recently witnessed an
exhibition of a new electric signaling
apparatus for use at sea and on land.
The signaling device consists of aframe
supporting incandescent lamps so wired
as to form all the letters of the alphabet.
This is attached to a. keyboard frame
similar to that of a typewriter, and pres-
sure on any key switches the lamps so
that any desired letter is shown in
broad curves by lighted lamps.
A New Yorker has devised and pat-
ented electric-lighted bulletin boards,
which are used with great success. The
bulletins are made of ground glass,
mounted in frames, in front of which
are set parallel glass plates, one-eighth
of an inch apart. The letters are of
metal, enameled black, and are fastened
by means of a spring on the back,
which is thrust into the one-eighth inch
slot between the parallel glass plates.
Electric lights behind the White glass
project the letters with wonderful
clearness at night, and no weather can
blur them. .
FROM OVER THE WATER.
A new terramara, or prehistoric set-
tlement, 500 yards long by 250 yards
wide, has been discovered at Castenas‘o,
near Bologna.
Sixty dollars fine for smoking in a.
non—smoking railway carriage was im-
posed on a. Leeds theatrical manager
lately. He had also sworn at the man
who complained. .
A good bull was made recently, in
parliament by Mr. Murnaghan, mem-
ber for Tyrone, who on being stopped
by the speaker, said: “1 how, sir, to
your ruling and merely beg to reiterate
what I was about to observe.”
A birthday book has been made up by
an enterprising London shopkeeper
from the announcements of births in
A little before the
child’s birthday arrives its mother re—
ceives a typewritten letter calling at»
tention to the suitable gifts in the
tradesman’s stock, with wishes for
many happy returns of the day.
Rontgen has published some new
facts about his rays. lie finds that all
solid bodies can generate them; the
only difference being in the intensity,
the greatest intensity being produced
by platinum. He finds that the inser-
tion of a. Tesla coil between the
Ruhmkorff coil’ and the ray-produc-
ing apparatus is very advantageous,
and that the X rays and the air trav-
ersed by them can discharge electric
bodies.
MEN OF THE WORLD.
If Abdul Hamid Kuhn, sultan of Tur-
key, should lose his job he could prob-
ably get work use cowboy. He has a
stable of 2,000 horses and he can break
a dozen glass vases with a revolver while
galloping past- them. .
It is said that the attentions of King
Leopold of Belgium to Emilienne d'Al—
encon and Mdllc. de Merodc, two no-
torious Parisian beauties whom he has
sumptuously established in Brussels,
drove h is unhappy queen to commit sui-
cidc.
Dr. Jameson is still attracting much
attention in London. Publishcrs’ agents
arc on his track all the. time trying to

behind the storm door of‘the side entrance
to the corner saloon. da‘rted out, and,
snatching her pocketbook, ran off down
the street at his best speed.
His sprinting qualities, however. were
. no better than those of Mrs. Purvis who.
gathering her Skirts about her, gave chase
and kept close at his heels, soreamlng'for
help as she run. A score of men and boys
joined In the pursuit, but they were eft
behind by the thief and his victim. a
chase continued down One Hundred and

overtook Murray, and, seizing him by the
collar, held him until the arrival of P0-
