secrecy It has just become known that
Miss Annie L. Benton and W. H. Turman
of Atlanta were united in marriage on
Christmas day of last year. It was not
until two weeks ago that the relatives of
the young people were told of the secret
marriage, and only two or three inti
mate friends knew of it. Miss Benton,
now Mrs. Turman, is a daughter of Mrs.
W. H. Benton, at 108 Fowler street, and
until the time of her secret marriage was
an Atlanta society belle. Mr. Turman is
remittance clerk at the Atlanta Trust and
Banking Company. He Is 21 years old
and has been a resident of Atlanta for
many years.
Business is a trifle dull in certain lines
*t Waycross. The Herald is cheerful,
however, and hopes business In the lines
alluded to will improve soon. The paper
Bays: “Coroner Grimes informs the Her
ald that he has shipped the bodies of
elx negroes to the medical college at At
lanta during the past twelve months.
This is not as profitable a business, how
ever, as might at first appear. The coro
ner pays *5 for the coffin in which the
utiff is shipped, and generally only gets
$lO for the corpse. Four or five dollars
Is mighty small pay for handling a dead
man. Business has not been very good
with Coroner Grimes during the past
twelve months, but Christmas times are
coming and it may improve.”
Griffin Call: A note from J. A. Digby,
a merchant and postmaster at Digby,
dated Dec. 5, states that two young men
had entered his store and tied and gagged
the clerk, young Arthur Digby, and pro
ceeded to rifle the store and postotfiee.
Young Digby, who is a son of O. T. Digby,
former tax collector of Spalding county,
was unable to recognize either of the
robbers. He says that after tying his
hands and gagging him, width complete
ly robbed him of defense or making an
alarm, one of the robbers stood over him
with a pistol at his breast, while the
other proceeded to help himself to what
ever he saw and wanted. The amount of
losses to the store or postotfie by this
bold and daring burglary was not known
at the time our informant mailed his let
ter.
A rather peculiar case was trieil in
Judge Leonard's court, at Columbus Fri
day. It was an action brought by Will
iam Genoni, an Italian, against F. H.
Springer to recover the sum of SSO, which
had been placed in the possession of the
latter as a stake on the recent glove con
test between Morris and Koough. Genoni
and another party wagered the sum of SSO
each on the fight, Genoni betting on Ke
ough, while the other gentleman backed
Morris. The conditions of the wager wore
put in writing, to which both of the
wagerers attached their signature and
turned the Instrument, together with the
sl<, over to Mr. Springer to hold until
the result of the contest was decided l>y
the referee. It was agreed that the prin
ciples should choose the referee and that
his decision should be final. W. H. Fred
dy was named as referee, and he gave the
fight to Morris on a foul. A strong' kick
was raised, but it Is said that all of the
bets were paid over to Morris’ backers
all of the parties except Genoni submitting
to the referee’s decision. Genoni claims
that he refused at the time to abide by
the decision of the referee: that he de
manded his money of Springer before he
had paid It to the other party, and that
under the law Springer is responsible to
him for that amount. This Springer de
nies, saying that he paid the money ac
cording to the contract, which he did be
fore any demand was made on him by
Genoni. After hearing the evidence and
arguments the Judg.- rendered a decision
Jn favor of the defendant.

THE MORNING NEWS: MONDAY, DECEMBER 9. 1895.
DUELING IX FRAME.
Every Frenchman, AVlth But Few
Exceptions, Must Fight.
I’aris Letter in Pittsburg Dispatch.
“There are nine ways of stopping a
sword. The ninth is to stop it with the
body. It Is the only bad way." In
Franca It Is Important to know how to
stop a sword. Not everyone must fight.
A man past 60 may refuse. More may
not be challenged. A one-eyed man may
not be asked to tight at a pistol duel. A
cripple may be challenged only on condi
tion that he is able to go out. A debtor
may not ask his creditor to fight—or it
would be too easy a way of settling ac
counts. Ap unsuccessful litigant may not
challenge his successful adversary, and
a minor may not be challenged, though
he may challenge. These are exceptions.
Every other Frenchman, If lie wishes lo
keep clean his “honor’’ must be ready to
light duels.
in France the word “duel” does not
figure in the code. Many attempts to
introduce it have been made, under the
Restoration, under the Second Empire and
under the present republic. All have
been without effect, the general senti
ment of people and legislators not differ
ing essentially from the decision of the
council of state of Napoleon I: "There
are a multitude of offenses which the
law does not punish. Among these are
offenses having to do with matters so
delicate that the injured party would
Idush to bring them Into daylight, and
demand public Justice. In these circum
stances it is impossible for a man to ob
tain his rights except by duel.”
It thus comes about that every French
man having a social position to uphold
finds it important to know something
about the handling of the duelling sword.
The army training has already made great
numbers expert, and the innumerable
"Salles d’Armes” scattered throughout
Paris and every city of France exist for
the purpose of keeping up one’s practice.
Sometimes these Salles d’Armes are fitted
up with the greatest magnificence and
comfort, even becoming real clubs, diffi
cult to enter. The real clubs, among them
notably L'Unlon Artistlque, have fenc
ing halls surpassing all imagination, par
liament chambers, where wealth and
beauty are invited to sit judges over skill
and strength. On those days there are
great crowds. Two fencers make their
appearance, appropriately costumed. They
make thetr bows -to the assembly, allow
their masks to be put on them, salute and
stand on guard. There is a breathless
hush. Then quick as lightning the bright
blades Hash and almost dlsaiiper, as in
a haze, in the quick motion which the in
experienced eye can scarcely follow. It
is quicker than boxing, and yet gives a
sensation of greater tranquility and grace.
In the Salle d’Armes the security af
forded by the button on the end of the foil
permits tho fencer to seek for elegance,
grace and perfection in the execution of
the movements, The coups count onlv
against the bust, a convention which has
for Us object to render the game more
narrow, to enforce precision, and to aug
ment the fineness of the combinations. On
the dueling ground there is a change Al!
touches count, of necessity. And It is the
first touch that counts the highest. This
gives the experienced duelist an advant
age over the inexperienced fencer.
Mem who have practically no knowledge
of the sword are permitted to accent sword
duels if they insist. In such a case they
give up all other business pending the
hour of encounter, spending their whole
time with a maitre d'armes. The latter
will not teach such a pupil the guard posi
i tion. but will permit him to nlaee himself
; as he pleases—on condition always that
; iiis feet shall stand sufficiently far apart,
i the right before the left and in the direc
tion of his adversary. The “second posi
tion,” or simple guard, is then taught to
, bim, with a general idea, of two or three
parades and the easiest and most brutal
attacks which follow them. These to
gether with the practice of regaining tho
guard, must be sufficient.
Many an experienced man has had the
coolness and the good luck to get the bet
ter of a nervous antagonist, habituated
to fencing, in the first assault. But many
more have had a sword-thrust through
tlie leg or shoulder. For it is considered
indelicate for an experienced fencer to
deliberately kill an adversary who ap
pears to be obviously below Ids own
class. The experienced fencer is there
fore in a painful position. His own prac
tice has been in a school of finesse limi
ted by conventional rules and habits If
he simply seeks to give a clever flesh
wound. Ills interest may be aroused in
studying exactly how it shall lie done—
; and to such a degree that a chance rush
and flourish on the part of his enemy
quite outside of ordinary ways and hab
its, may surprise him and put him to such
a disadvantage that he has nothing left
but to strike seriously tn order thatNhe
may not be rtln through himself.
It may be imagined that all this gives
its Influence to public Intercourse in
France. During years of residence in the
gay capital I have never seen a blow
given between gentlemen. The bullying
and open insolence of the American bar
room will lie looked for in vain in French
cafes. And even street rowing, except
among the workingmen of the Buburbs
j Is almost unknown.

COLUMBIA, HARTFORD, CRAWFORDS.
This Is the MEN’S CRAWFORD. List price is $75. Our price $65. The
reason why we sell them for the price we do the manufacturer wants to get them in
troduced. They claim it is as good as any SIOO wheel. We know it is as good as a
jgreat many wheels at that price.
This is the LADIES’ (JR AAV FORD, and a regular beauty it is. To see it is
but to fall in love with it. The same thing applies to this wheel as to the men’s. List
price $75. Our price $65.
26-inch Wheels—List price S6O; our price SSO. These are exactly same style and
quality as the men and women’s wheels. We have examined every wheel on the market
at the Atlanta Exposition, and we now say that this wheel is by far the best at the
price.
The 24-inch Wheels, for small Boys and Girls, we know are the best to be found in
the country. Asa rule this size is slighted, but in the Crawfords they are made iust
exactly like the larger size. The list price is $45, but we are going to sell them for S4O.
Don’t make a mistake and buy any other wheel, as you will certainly regret doinf so
as these wheels are (as we said before) the finest made for the money/ We want every
one to come and see them even if you do not want to buy. *
Lindsay & Morgan.
P. S.—We want it distinctly understood that all sizes of wheels are exactly the
same, both in style and quality—something that no other manufacturer does. Another
thing we want to impress on prospective purchasers is, that we can only get a limited
quantity of these wheels in time for Christmas, so don’t put off till the last minute but
come at once and make your arrangements. All are 1896 models.
