HIS ONLY DUEL.
It Wan n Newspaper AfTiilr, nml llotli Ed
itor Itecelred ClinrRe.
Tho 61(1 editor lmtl tho lnsldo trnck mill
nnn doing lliu tnlklng.
"I iinvcr lmd more- thn'n ono duol," lio
foejKin.
"You eponk ng If onoworo not enough,"
Jutorruptod n lUtonor.
"It yns nn nmplo sufficiency," con
tinued tlio editor with n pmllc. "I was at
the time of Its ooourronoo 89 years of nno
ml tho editor of tlio Sniugtillo VluilW
tutor. I wns nlso n hut headed youth with
a yoarn for goro nml glory. In tho county
adjoining wijs a 'lonthesomo Contempo
rary' of lulno, built on about tho snmo
linen I won, and It wasn't nioro than a year
nftcr wo hnd boon contcmpornrlc) until wo
woro in n flno row. Ho would wrlto south- i
lng editorials, nnd so would I, and finally
wo dropped our pons and took tip pistols i
that Is, wn ngrccd to light a duol.
"Fortunately for Us wo had friends who '
woro nioro Kensllilo than wo woro, who
took olmrgo of nil tho arratigunivntfi for
tho bloody affray. It was decided by thoni
that tho duel should tako plato and that
wo should flro two shot at each other, tho
weapons being double barrel shotguns Mid
tho dtstanco ten paces. That milted us ex
actly, for wo woro extremely bloodthirsty
nnd wanted each othcr'H goro In largo
quantities. Tho fight was to tako placo at
0 o'clock In tho morning In a secluded
spot, and wo woro thcro promptly with our
seconds. Our Instructions woro to flro tho
flrt-t (shot after counting three, nnd If ono
or both surheil another shot might bo
Jlre,d as quickly as tho principal could got
his gun ready.
j "That mntio It a regular rough and
ttimhlo for half tho fight, and nlso made It
mora Interesting. It Isn't nocossary for
mo to go Into details of what I thought
'just before tho battlo, mother,' sufllco It
to nay I thought writing scathing editori
als b preferable to shotguns at 0 a. m.
Howovor, wo kept our noro nnd took our
places ready for business. And I think wo
Ynoant business, for wo took aim right at
each other. Then camo tho counting, and
Anally tho deciding 'throe,' and bang went
both guns at once I felt ns If I had
caught nn cntlro carload of Bhot from my
faoo down, and I tumbled over on tho
frrass. What hud become of my opponont
did not greatly concern mo nt that tuiprcmo
moment, for I was wondering why I was
not dead.
"In a half mlnuto tho doctor was feeling
mo, and after a mlnuto or two mora ho
Raid I had been mlrocuously paved, and
pulled mo to myfiet. Evidently my op
ponent had nlso been miraculously saved,
lor ho wai standing about ton feet away
from mo with his doctor, and tho sight lie
presented made mo forgot nil nbmit tho
duel and break Into roars of laughter. I
appeared to hao tho sumo effect on him,
fur ho began laughing at mu. Then wo
both got mad, and In live mlnutis wo had
licked seconds doctors and everybody else
on hand and run tlieni clean out of tho
woods.
"This being accomplished, wo shook
hands and took a look at ourselves In n
.glass, which hud otldciitly bton brought
for our benefit. Penult mo to omit an
elaborate description of what wo looked
llko. Thoso confounded seconds had loaded
our guns to tho lnuzzlo with printer's Ink,
nnd tho way it was splattered over us
was enough to have mudo us laugh at llrst
nnd then to lick tho crowd that put tho
Job up on us. Howoor, wo had showed
wo had sand, and tho jokers kept In hid
lug until we announced In our respective
papers that all was forglveu, and tho
hatchet was iload and burled. That was
my only duel," concludul tho editor, "and
1 am extremely glad that tho guns woro
loaded with Ink Instcnd of buckshot."
