Although this may havo been convincing to tho girl, it was not to a policeman who came up, and be arcord- aly took ber in chargo and returned bor to her ome.

His wife, to whom ho has beou married buts year, has boon down in Tonnessoo in at- tendanco on hor sick mother, who died aeout two weoks ago, and Saturday rhe arrived at tho Gault House on her way homo to Milwaukce, Thore loarning that her husband had gono to Cinciunatithe day before, and would return hero Sunday morning, sho concluded to stay over aud givo him a plossant eurprise, About 6 o'clock Saturday oyoning, Johuny ——, a friend of Frank's at tho Gault, recoivod 9 tole- gram from no mutual friond in Indianapolis sasing, “Frank ig doad; moaot hin romaiws até o'clock to-morrow morning.” IHsving no Kuowladga that only a joke was intended, he immodistely took the dispatch to bis wifo. Frank's only sister, living inthe southern part of this State, is bere in this city under medical troat- mont, boelog quite an invalid, Taking » cacriago, the simont dirtracted wife hunted up tho sister, anid after consultation sent 4 dispatch to the lat- tor’s home announcing Frank's death, aad ine structing the rolatives, of whom thoro is a largo family, to mako arraugemonts for the funoral ‘Tucaday forenoon, After such # night as can bo imagined, the wife and invalid sister repaired ta the depot Sunday morpinu, but, instead of the céNined remaine, there was the husband and brotnor as well as oor in tho world, and all un- .conectous that two hours lator in the day the an- nonncemont of his death aud funeral would bo publicly proclaimed froin tho soveral puipitain bia native town.

DiMeulties of Witting---Correcting on Error Abont tho Timo of Firing, Incidents on the Ground. Tho bloodless result of the Rockford diol has givon riso to doubts concorning tho alncority of the principals and thele seconds. Many peoplo, who vow inclino to tho bolief that the exchange of-harmlons shots was prearranged to servo gcomo purpose best known to the parties thom- anivon, would have had no doubt of tho gonuine- nove of tho affair ind a wound been recoivod by either of the combatants. In ordor to set those peoplo right, the writer, who accompaniod Fostor’s patty from Chicago, and who twas pres- ont at tho fight, will recount sovoral facts which woro averlookod In tho hasto of tolograpbing, but which Laye a ditoct boating ou the question at issuo, ONE OF TNS PRINCIPAL OBSTACLES tho unbolicyara encounter is the supposed ina bility of men missing oach othor with Colt’a navy revolvers at 20 pacos. There ia roally very littlo in this. ‘To be successful as. duchst aman wants bettor qualilicatlons of sim than for mereshooting ata mark, Many mon ate oxcel- Ient marksmen whon nothing but 4 bull's-oyo or perbaps s puor pigeon depends upon thoir skill. But when jt comes to shooting at another man whilo ho shoote at you, the Lost of shots ia apt to experience o Ilttio shaking in somo part of his austomy, which may more or less affect his pistol-arm. To got shot in a duel requires gtestor courago than to be hanged. In tho Satter case the Bheriff attendy to all the little arrangements; ho draws tho cap ovor Your head, fixes tho nooso, and all you havo to do is to remain perfectly quiot, aud —vo hanged. But it is upnecessary to oxtond on the comparison, [tis not intonded that this matter of shakiucss should apply to Saturday's duolists, Thoie was NOT THY WAGHTEAT INDICATION of anything of the sort about those brave men. Thoir nerves wero firm; they liad faced an enotny's firo before with unmoved Lace, and wore not at all disturbed by this little affatr of honor. Tho ouly troutle was, neltuer bad yracticod wince leaving tho army, and pistol-suooting is an accompliahment which never improves by disso. ‘Then tho duoling position bua ite dis- advantages, You don’t aquarely face your op- ponent. ‘That position, while exposing more of your peraou, spoils your chance of making a ‘and shot. nel Saturday was conducted with a strict re- gard to the proprietica—is to alant your body so Aa tO got your right eye in alino with your pistol- arm, ‘These two positions, it will bo acon, both havo their advantagos and disadyautages, ‘Tho ono gives you & better surface to play upon, while detracting from yonr aim; the other, wiile removing conmiderable of the matorial which, to ba succeasful. it is noceessrv to hit, impovos your chanco of hitting what little ts loft. Lhoro is also something in this mattor of MONLY TWENTY PACES.” Twenty pacos seoms & mall distance to talk about, bit it changes mightily when you como to Keo those twenty paces measured, and see what can po mado of them, When tho condi- tions were stated to him, the reporter was op- piled at what ho thought a murderously short diatance. But both the soconda wero tall mon, with a longthof astride which peculiarly titted them for their dutics. Branch was tho talleat, and it abould follow chat ho could make more of tho distanoo than tho othor. But ho didn’t. Barnard put his boat leg forward, and it waa no ticod that Branch was a fow inches behind tho first fow stops. Hovwevor, it shoula be borno in mind that tho latter wanted (he bolligeronts to be placed ten paces apart, which might account for his tardiness in stopplug out, ANOTHER FOINT, sud thero is no end of thom when ove comes to reflect on thia mattor of alncority, ia tho dis- agreeably short timo in which aim has to bo taken, ‘Tho pistol {s elevated at tho word ‘+ rendy,” and you have the time in which 1b takes to utter the words '* ono, two,” distinctly before eonding tho winged mossenger of death to your antogonistor receiving it youraolf. ‘That timo ls scarco two seconds, and it cortninly is short considering the important 1seues at atako. Ia abould bo hero stated, to correct an error into Which ® moroing uowspapor hag fallon, that thore was no violation of tho rules in firing aftor tho word ‘*to,” Inatead of afcor tho word “threo,” 1¢ is well undorstood by those familiar with such mattora that, al- though that clause sppca:s in the agreoment, tho thing is required to take placo betweon the words “two” and “three.” ‘Uhiv was diatinct- ly oxplaiued to tho principals boforo taking up Position, and it was simply sn oversight that it waa not fully oxplained in Tar Turnunr'a dis- patch so ax to prevent any auch mistake es that which tho morning newspapor mado. Tunis ex- piavation is therefore wsullicient to show “why the soconds did not step in and make «double tragedy of tho affair,” When overy fact in connection with the na- fortunate and humullating affair is weighed, thare ix no room far doubting that both partios wore TENRTILY IN EARNEST. Incidonts keop recurring to tho reporter'a mind which cannot be road in auy other way, For in- stance, the groat anxiety of the Edwards party to got near tho Stato line, which was noticed aud commented upon by peoplo in the cars, and their offorta to change the articles of syreement wero entlsely uncalled for if it was jnetthair inten- tion to fro over oach other's heada, Thia deairo to got as faroutof tho way aa possible to pre- vent unpleasant conscquences was so strong that innamerablo conforeaces wero hold botore it wan agreed to carry out tho original pro- ramme. Adolay of two bourse tas caused at Rockford by this difficulty. At any rato, both Barnard and the ‘doctor wero in no mood for joking in sucha caso, or they would not havo coneuited lawyers teforoband; and the latter would not havo mado such a childish dis- play of covardico in tho provenco of tho report~ er. Ap already stated in theso columns, the de- Isy caused by the eurgcon's chicken-beartednesa camo nigh proving disastrous to Maj. Foster’a honor, ‘fle other party were lalf-an-bour shoad, and that was just tho time allowed for tho fulfillment of the contract which was tu do-~ cide the honor of tro men, To make up thin large interval (the dietance out wasonly 6 milay) Mr. Barnard worked upon tho driver's cupidity in every way in order to get him to make tho most of his team, oven goiug 80 far as offcring 8100 to overtake the carrisza ahead. Tho driver exerted himecif to the utmost in tho hope of securing 6o big a baul, Some monoy pasued into his handa at the close, but whether tt was that ora emallor amount tho writer is un- able tosay, It was vory strango that ‘THY HACKNEN, haying been worked upon jn this way, did not take meaactes to learn what the strangers wero about. They remained In their hacks quite con- tented whilo tho interosting affair was in prog- ress, and oven tha pistol-shota wore poworlesa to incite them to ao exploring expedition, There ts probably a sufficiont roason for their passive curioelty in tho fact chat a bottle of Bourbon was loft bebind to cloar their dusty throats. Wohilo the seconds were welecting tho grounds, Maj. Foutor advised tho reporter to UBE 118 NOTE-HOOK, and not to truat to hia momory for an accurate report of the Oybt. Healao jocularly raquest- ei the doctor, in case he should be mortally wounded, to romave his boots in order to provent the verification of a prophecy that bo would div with them on. Foster wont foto tho battle with a cigar in his mouth, which savored tomowhat of bravado, He remarked to the reporter afserwards that it was the reault of sbucnt-mindeduess—a plausj- blo excuse suroly~aud that he would not forthe world bave dons anything which appoared like making light of the occamon, His re: firiug—"'e Hitle too bigh"—ho alae ex: coming from him nucouaciously, wad apologized for {8 apparent levity. IN TOSSING UP YOR POBITIONS ‘3x, Darnard used two ulckels, which Foster was anxious ‘to have a4 mocmoutous of tho meellng. ‘Tho one which lost the tow for position was much worn; tho other, which won tho call, was comparatively now. His wecond was particular- ly ausious to impress his piiucipal with the ro- spective merits aud appearsncos of the colu, aud Br, Foster seemed deeply interested in what was sald with regard thoroto, but as to which of tho piecos iis fond recolectious will cling to ho gave bo bint. After the firing, when it was decided to abako hands sod mate up, DB. O'REILLT : wea very jodiscrect in bie congratulations, He pitted Maj. Foster on the back, aud dubbed bim o bravest mania the world, notwithetanding Tho morb approved plan—and that’ tho lowor:ng looks of the othor side, Had It not been for Barvard's interpomtion with « br no moana gentle monstrance, and an equal amonnt of flattery for Edwards to absorb, thera might have baen suothor quarrel to sortie, ‘Toeso and cther incidents show that there wae no skemming on oithor side, The correspond. ence botwoen the nartios ix confirmation atron, that ovorything was square. Somo may fin it hard to understand how tivo nowspapor-mon Rhould bo so thit-ekinted aa to fight over ther artictor, It is protty etidont that Foater was not auxtous for blond, Ldwards f4 not connsct- od with the Zimes cditorialy, but it happened ho had writton tho article which made the former tiereo in dofenso of tha Winnabaro ladies, Fos- tee Inbored under tho impression that soma other fellow wan the author of tho slandor. and insorted that fellow's namo in tho concluding paragraph of hin editorial, which paragraph, however, waa " killed" by tho managing editor. Euwards refused to accept any reasonable oxpla- pation. Tho comesponidenco alows that Fostor atuted the facta in the case, and disavowed ony intoution of inauiting the firo-cating editor of the Dispatch, Itio plain tbat the tattor meant business from tho first. ‘Kho editor of tho Journalia a good writer and an able politician, Hits talonts Lavo often boon felt in the Damo- eratia party, which woutd feol much onsior if his pon wss sient and his vigilant ovea sichttess.
