A FICHT IN
THE CLOUDS
By F. A. MITCHEL
' Interlaken is a good central point
for tourists to- make H hort trips visit j
In?. Swiss pinces af Interest. Perinip* j
tho most interesting of nil these trips
is to take n train at ?nterin ken for
Grindelwald, thence up the Steep side
Of n mountain to Scheid egg.
When J made this trip the railway
from Scheidegg io the top cf the Jung
frau was just begun. In the car as
cending from Grindelwald vas a young
American with two gulden who wa?
intending to ascend 'he Jungfrau from
Scbeldegg. | He wt;? s. quiet, inof
fensive fellow, but thc fact that he
carried an Ice ax indicated ihnt he was
n climber. A Frenchman with a wax
ed mustache and n goatee proportion
ntely small seemed disposed to guy him.
Webster, the American, kept his tem
'per, but. being quicker at repartee, got
tbc better of him and set the car
laughing nt him, . This made the
Frenchman, whoso nu nie wrns Du
Pierre, angry, nud he Insulted Webster
Since they Were sitting opposite each
other Weliftist rencbed forth bis band
and slapped the other's cheek.
? Every uric expected n light, but since
we were climbing nt an angle of some
thing like forty degrees un one relished
the prospect of bnving one. We could
not blame - Webster for rrsenttlig nu
insult at the moment rather than hav
lug lt pass into something more seri
I Olia Nevertheless, the nffulr did poss'
I Into something umre -serious. The
I Frenchman, banding Webster bis curd,
j said: . ...
i .This ls no pince for nn altercation."
Of course that meint u( challenge,
hut when or where-the end of the nf
fair would lie readied nt. one knew,
and few eared. Wlu|b we reached
1 ScheJdcgu 1? being a felic w c?uiitrynmn
of Webster**, he ciillc? upon nie. ask
ing me to go to Du Pierre nod make
nu effort to settle tho matter. Before
doing KO 1 learned from v mau who hud
witnessed th? fmens In the cur timi
tho Frenchman whs n celebrated Paris
duelist I had therefore very'little
hope Alf Recuring un adjustment, uud
that hope was extinguished us snob ns
I met the l-'rciicluumi'g representative
He informed ide that such nh insu'l
ns ho bad received unavenged would
niln bis reputation nt home. He could
hot afford even to accept nu apology.
Webster turned Vint to he il sheep
raiser In the heart ?Jf the It?i-fc'y mouu
tnlns nud used to high altitude*. He
directed 'me to acceptIm Heine's'chni

to do so. The. rond leaving S?hclddgg

difference which of the two won the
Seheldegg enb^
Du Pierro, who supposed , he would'
tflgbt under terms\o which he had been
ne-.-ustomed.- was indignant nt such np
innovation, but since\1 assured' Illili
that Webster wohld only fight him un
the term? offered he was obliged either
togo buck .to I'n ris having bad his face
?lapped without'having wiped 4ut the
insult or accept tho situation. tl^i
: Tbe matter was kept perfectly quire* *
Thine who had ' Witnessed the' fracas
hi the car' were w?ri?ts and scnttere/i
in nil.directions. Consequently when
one went out the next morning os the
sun was casting its first beams on tbe
.surrounding -peaks there -was no one
present oseept tho principals, their sec
onds., md u surgeon who was stopping

V I started him on the minute/nnd ho

two men could ste each other for near
ly the whole distance; When . they
.were a "quaffer of a mile apart" the
French man. b nit lng. took: deliberate,
