The train comes to a halt bo near the State line that some of the party think that they are in Georgia. Oapt. Jackson and Mr. King have left the car.

Trees, big and little, old and young, are to be aeeu only. A thick, heavy oloud hangs over every thing, but morning Is rapidly drawing near, and the uioou ahowa occasionally. There is a deep feeling of awe over all, possibly except two gentlemen, who are soon to attempt each other's life. On the outside Captain Jackson and Mr. King are wandering through the woods search ing for aspot. Astheymovealongaraiin arm they talk familiarly and pleasantly. A place Is found, and Oapt Jackson takes the choice of positions. Mr, King takes the choice of weapons. The principals leave the coaches with Dr. Cooper, Dr. tieatty and a few spectators. Captain Jackson places Mr. Calhoun with ids hack almost squarely against the heavily clouded moon, then the distance is step ped oil. Mr. Williamson takes his posi tion. Dr. Cooper drops upon his knees and opens his surgical case, knives, etc., while bandages are laid out upon the ground. Dr. Ileatty, near Mr. William son docs the same. Then Mr. King produces n pair of pistols, and the crowd gathers aronnd, except Messrs. Calhoun and Williamson, who stand with rigid side to right side just where tbey were placed. AM. IN HIADINKSS. "Gentlemen," said Dr. Ooopor, "must this bo?" Neither gentlemen authorised to speak answered and Dr. Cooper realizing that lie had dono ail ho could to prevent the fight, walks to his case of instruments. ' Then Captain 8eay comes forward and asks to adjust It, and is so persistent that he has to be carried away almost bodily. Captain Jackson la unac quainted with the gun. It Is a double acting Smith & Wesson, 42-calibre, ham merlcss aud with safety attachment. The captain soon learned the weapons auii hands it to Mr. Calhoun, at the oamo time explaining it. Mr. Klug does the same for Air. Williamson. .Nothing more remained to be done. Cant. Jackson took a position. The word woe given. In rapid succession, six shots rang out One came from Mr. Calhoun's pistol and Ave fropi Mr. Williamson s pistol. Then the colloquy occurred which ended in adjustment of difficulty oii'term4"h(morable to each. WHAT IT WAS ABOUT. The trouble grew out of Williamson denouncing a statement made by Cal houn before a Legislative committee as false. Captain Harry Jackson, of At lanta, was Calhoun's second, and Cap tain Jack King, ot Home, was William son's second. The quarrel originated ovor language used by Williamson in speaking of a statement made by Calhoun, that Wil liamson was trying to unload on Georgia Central. The latter declared the state ment to be unqualifiedly false. Cal .houn return to Atlanta. Calhoun is Counsel for the West Point Terminal road and Williamson Is Presi dent of the Chattanooga, Home and Carrullton road. m I'Ktommti suNDAi.

Waiuixotom, D. 0., A ugust 11-A suit that is likely to engago the atten tion ol the Equity Court at an early date possesses novelty from the fuct that it la belloved to be the only caso on record In which a divorce was obtained by n wife while ahe and her husband were llvlug in love together, occupying the eauie apartment*, eating nt the aarno table and living, to outward appearances, lust a? husband and fflfo should live, l ie parties concerned are Cleland Llndsley and Way Ann Lludsley. uleland was formerly an engineer in the navy, and at one time wan the owner of property worth $100,000. The bill which has boon fllod by Cle land Lindaloy affirms that May Ann waa a poor, friendless girl vilfon he married her at tho cloao of the civil war, but that ho loved her then and continued throughout hia married life to love her dearly. From time to time bo transfer red to her piece by pieco.tbo property which waa bis. One of the reasons why ho thus bestowed his worldly possessions upon bis wife waa that he knew be was In the habit of drinking to exceaa, and that hia property would be better eared for by his wlfo than ho conld bo sure of caring for it bluuolf. A few year* ago a stranger came on the Bccne, a handsome young man, to board at the house, because it was one of Mrs. Lindsley's whims to entertain a boarder. Mr. Llndsley waa uover nn over-suspi cious man. He didn't think thst.it was hardly proper for the wife and boarder I to be in each other's apartments rather scjutily attired, or that there was room for protest when, without consulting him, the two would leave town and opend several weeks together at some distant pleasure resort. He didn't show his temper very badly, becausoas soou as he uttered a word of reproof tho lady would deolare that it was very un fair to abuse the boarder lu that way, would hint that the boarder had n great deal of trouble to keep hia hands oil Mr. Llndsley, and would even threaten to suo for a divorce on the grouud of Mr. Lindsley'a intemperato habits. Such a threat would invariably pacify Mr. Lludsley. In tho summer of 1S80 Mn. llndsley actually did sue for a divorce, bat her busbsnd appealed to hor for mercy, llo oiTored to give over to hor whatever of the property he had not already trans ferred to her if sho would only "let up" on bim, She agreed. The remainder of the property waa given to hor, and It was understood between them t&at the suit should go no further. They resumed their former relations, and continued to live together as loving husband and wife; but one fine morning not many woeka after the bargain, Mr. Llnualey waa furnished with a notice of the decree of divorce which had been given by (be court In lavor of May Ann on account of tho husband's intemper ance. May Ann bad continued to pro- f sccuto tho suit, aod she was able, owlug to the peculiar system of administering J tho law In this city, to prosecute tho] suit to a final issue while tho defendant in the cue was entirely Ignorant of the proceedings. Now Cleland Lindsiny suns to have the case roopenod, and to have Ills prop erty either Restored to his own possess ion or placed In tho bands of trusters to be appointed by thejeourt, and by them to bo managod for the Joint benefit of himself and the wife whom he still loves, notwithstanding the handsome boardor and the occult divorce.

Faikmoht, W.Va., August 11.?Every stranger iu these parti nowadays U an oil man or under suspicion. When I stepped up to the hotel counter to regis ter a man followed tneand stood waiting for Lis turn. Suddenly he asked tbe clerk, "Whose barometer ia that?" He had spied a barometer lying back on the desk and knew it belonged to an oil uian. The man ol an inquiring turn of mind was an oil luuu himself. Tbe man who owned tbe barometer was a geolo gist in the employ of tbe Standard Oil Company, who has been in these parts for several days taking observations. The Standard has ngreat nose for oil and does not intend that any good thing ?ball escape it. I drove out with apsrty to tbe southern limit of tbe Doll's Kun fluid, and if we had had faster horses we would have teen more of the field, nvtufxa in* mas. We taw and heard enough to know that the drill Is at work and more drills ire seen to begin pegging away. 1 was told that from tlio southern iluiit of op sratlons to and including the Mt.

At both of these wells the tueks ure ready and good re ?ultsaro expected. In the event of a itriko the extension of the pipe line would follow fast. tub oua.nokh's kvss OI'KN. Tbe farmers talk oil and take little in terest in anything else. Nearly every farm ia leased. Some of the owners are willing to lease for a good round honus Hid big rental, ami some will not lease at >11, saying that the development ia so close to them that they prefer to wait and get the lull advantage. Men are on the ground ready to take up every foot of it. A farmer five miles south of tbe nearest derrick had just been offered 5100 cash, ft a month rental and Ills royalty for 17" acres and had not made up his mind to let it go at that. A month ago be would have been glad to leaBe for the royalty and ten cents per aero yearly rental until drilling began. Tho farmer is getting tbe fever as well as the operators. Tbe oil of this region commauds a premium of 25 centaa bar rel, as that of tho Washington field docs. If you happened to have a 1,000 barrel well this premium would be an itenr. A HOME COMPANY OXTTIKd TO WOMB? Tbe West Virginia Gas, Oil and Gas Goal Company, a local concern with ter ritory enough to Justify its long name, to-day made a contract to put down a well lu Mannlngton District of Marion county, operations to bo begun within thirty days. J cannot be exact, but I think tills tract ia more thun twenty miles from tile Doll's Kun region. It is, however, nesr the well territory now being developed by Prof. I. 0. White's company. Professor White thinks he is sending tho drill down into a grest oil pool, and his friends will hope that he may not be disappointed. Capt frank Burt, of Mannlngton, ia President of tbe West Virginia Company, W. A. Obley, of Fairuiont, is Secretary, and Charlea E. Wells, of Uiover's Gap, ia one of tbe leading spirits. This company lias about 76,000 acres in Marion, Har rison, Wetsel. Doddridge, Tyler and Jackson. It lias 1,600 acres in tho heart of Ilukill's leases in thoDoll'i Run country. Tbe early development of this territory was considered st yes terday's meeting of the directors, but they refuse to say what action was taken. ( know they declined to sub-let to parties who offered to put down two wells at once and at least four within a year. Tbe next time I visit Marion county I hope to find its good people rolling in grease. Thore will, of course, bo dis appointments, but unless the oil sharps are off in their.cslculations, there is an abundance of oil in this region, and its development is already fairly begun. An oil man from tho Washington reglou told me that all oil men woulo be glad to see a big development In the neighborhood of Wheeling, "it Is a good deal like an oil town now," he said. "Everything goes. They are so free-and-esry with oil men who come in to have a little fun." It occurred to me that It was worth a ride up and down the bills to bear this discriminating and complimentary remark. c. l. u. Tll? Algrlou Oil Field. Fairmml Imlfl.

Appar ently he pays no attention to the bun dles of petitions in the woman's behalf that have been laid bolore him. His ex perience ln< the Lipskl case, In which the prisoner confessed after the Homo Secretary had refused a reprlevo, seems to have stlflened his resolve not to in terpose any obstaclo to the sentence o( the Court. The popular agitation against hanging the wretched woman, owing to the ele ment of doubt, will add great weight to the movement against capital punish ment. Very (ew murder cases, and probably no hanging cases, admit o( mathematical certainty ol.proof. The argument Is that if public, feeling is against an Irrevocable sentence, in the absence of Huch certainty it li bettor to have no death penalty at all. The agitation in Ibis case Is partly due to sympathy with Mrs. Maybrick, a freak of popular feeling erecting her into a hero. Ladlea oro prepared to present her with bouquets, and people proiso her fortitude. Tito agitation In her be half Includes sevcrallesdlng barristers and doctors. | "JACK TUB m'l'tlt" UAPQ11T.

The swiftness of the com' bined diplomatic action of England, Germany, Austria and Italy upon the Cretan question, as pronounced by the Greek note to the Powers, Is the result of a previous understanding of the 1'ow-, ers with Turkey on united action in the East. The! Greek note, which threatened armed intervention in Crete, inspired as it was by Bussla, met with a decisive response from the four powers within two days. There is nothing in modern history like it fur rapidity of diplouintio action, with a Straight-forward assertion of a definite policy, COHISO BACK AT 0?EKCB. The Forte, in a circular note received here la^t night, issued under tho concort of the four Powers, repudiates the charges of tbe Greek note that Turkish Misrule is solely responsible for tbe Cretan Insurrection. It asserts that the reforms demanded by tbe Christiana bave been readily granted, and that the people'wouid remain peaceful If they were not Incited by Greek agitators. Tbe Porte's response does not allude to tbe leading point of arrangement on which the four Powers depend for tho settlement of the Cretan troubles, nume ly: That a Christian Governor, with a mixed Cbrlstisn and Moslem Council, elected by the people, shall constitute the Government after the present troubles are over. A semi-official article in the Journal De Si. PeUribunj admits that the prompt itude of tho decision of the powers lias prevented the movement from assuming proportions which would menace the Sisce of Europe, and that the Servian overnment's abandonment of tbo mass of all tbe reserves is as certainly due to the Influence of Prlnco Bismarck's league of peace.
