A MAST R OF FENCE. Jean Louis Meets and Kills 13 Succes sive Opponents in an Hour. I'coni the OUling for Octol>er. To g. v j .lidea of what u brave man can do if Ur knows fencing thoroughly, and but keeps cool ami collected in danger, we will relate au historical duel. So extraor dinary is this combat, that it would l>o hold a romance, bad it not been witnessed by a ■whole army. The hero is Jean Louis, one of the great masters of the beginning of this century, and the duel happened in Madrid, in IPS lot He was the Master-at-arms of the Thirty-second Regiment of French Infantry; the First Regiment, composed entirely of Italians, formed part of the same bri gade. Regimental esprit dr corps and rivalries of nationality caused constant quarrels, when swords were often whipped cut or bul lets exchanged. After a small battle had occurred in the streets of Madrid, in which over '3OO French and Italian soldiers had taken part, the officers of the two regiments decided to give such breaches of order a great blow, aud to re-establish discipline thev decreed that the Master-at-anns of the two regiments should take up the quarrel and tight it out. Imagine a whole army in battle array on one of the large plains that surround Madrid. In the centre a large ring is left open for the contestants! This spot is raised above the plain, so that not one of the spectators will miss one phase of the con test. The drum is heard; two men naked to the waist, step in the ring. The first is tail and strong, his black eyes rove disdainfully upon the gaping crowd; he is Giacomo Fer rari, the celebrated Italian. The second, tall, also handsome, and with muscles like steel, stands modestly awaiting the word of command, his name is Jean Louis. The witnesses assume their places on either side of their principals, A death-like silence ensues. •‘On guard!” The two masters cross swords; Giacomo Ferrari lunges repeatedly at Jean Louis; but in vain, bis every thrust is met by a parry. He makes up bis mind to bide his chance, and caresses and teases his oppon ent’s blade. Jean Louis, calm and watch ful, lends himself to the play, when, quicker than lightning the Italian jumps aside with a loud yell, and makes a terrible lunge at Jean Louis —a Florentine trick, often suc cessful. But, with extraordinary rapidity, Jean Lous has parried, and risposts quickly in the shoulder. “It is nothing,” cries Giacomo, s mere scratch," and they again fi ll on guard; al most directly he is hit in the breast. This time, the sword of Jean Louis, who is now attacking, penetrates deeply. Giacdmo’s face becomes livid, his sword drops from his hand and he falls heavily on the turf. He is dead. Jean Louis is already in position: he wipes his reeking blade, then, with the point of his sword in tne g ound, he calmly awaits the next man. The best fencer of the First Regiment has just been carried away a corpse; but the day is not yet over. Fourteen adversaries are there impatient to measure swords with the conqueror, burning to avenge the master they had deemed invincible. Jean Louis has hardly had two minutes’ rest. He is ready. A uew adversary stands before him A sinister click of swords is heard; a lunge, a parry, a rispost, and then a cry, a sigli, and all is over. A second body is Pefore Jean Louis. A third adversary advances. They wanted Jean Louis to rest. “I am not tired,” he answers with a smile. The signal is given. The Italian has closely watched Jean Louis’ play, and thinks he has guessed the secret of his victories. He multiplies his feints and tricks, then, all at once, bounding Uke a tiger on his prey, he gives his opponent a terrible thrust in the lower line.* But Jean Louis’ sword has parried, and is now deep within his oppon ent’s breast. What need to relate any more; ten new adversaries followed him, and the ten fell before Jean Louis amid the excited yells and roars of an army. At the request of the Thirty-second Regi ment’s Colonel, who thought the lesson suf ficient, Jean Louis, after much pressing, consented to stop the combat, and he shook hands with the two survivors, applauded by 10,000 men. From that day fights ceased between French and Italian soldiers. This wonderful and gigantic combat might be held a fable were not all the facts above stated still found in the archives of the Ministry of War. MEN FOR HOUSEWORK. A Dream of What May Come to Pass in the Near uture. From the Boston Transcript. There is a great thought, a brilliant indus trial suggestion, in the oase of Frank King, otherwise Kitty Russell, who has been forced, according the young person’s own story, to adopt a woman’s garb and go out to work as a housemaid aud waitress in or der to earn a living. Mr. Frank King says that he had money enough to live on, with out work, up to a year ago. Then circum stances compelled him to go to work. He could find no work to do as a man, but he observed that there was always an unsup plied demand for female domestic help. If the work would not come to Frank King, Frank King would go to the work; and his face was smooth and his stature moderate, and as short hair is fashionable, he had no difficulty in disguising himself in woman’s clothes and getting a situation. The scru tiny of likely-looking servant girls, as everybody knows, is not keen. The advent of any kiud of a girl at all is, in certain un lucky households, especially suburban house holds, a matter for exceeding rejoicing. Kitty Russell says, however, that she was compelled to fly from one place to another to avoid detection; and, at last, having lo cated with a family in Chelsea, where she ■was regarded as a perfect jewel, she was in discreet enough yesterday, having a fond ness for the military, to go out and and see the parade of the First Regiment, and was pounced upon and arrested by a sharp-eyed polioeman, who detected her disguise. So that here, for a time at least, Kitty Rus sell’s promising industrial career was brought to a close. The Listener says that there is a sugges tion in this affair. It ought to be plain enough what it is. There are thousands of men, we are told, who cannot find work to do. There are many more thousands of women who will not do housework. Now of these thousands of men there are a ma jority, beyond a doubt, who might make themselves quite handy at housework, or at least a good deal handier than nothing at all. Let these poor wretches without em ployment be “driven to petticoats,” as Mr. Frank King was. To petticoats, that is, if it is regarded as necessary to keep up a fic tion of femininity; but in order to spare the stalwart maids-of-all-w r ork such episodes as Kitty Russell was subjected to when she wont out to see the soldiers, aud to keep within the law, the petticoat might be only a mere perfunctory, rudimentary one—a sort of Albanian fuatanella, neatly disposed over Michael's neat but ample pantaloons. IVrhaps a function and legitimate oppor tunity for the divided skirt mav be found at last in this suggested industrial movement. The sex of the new servants might be still further disguised a little, without being denied, by udding a feminine termination to tlie well-known masculino name. One can imagine an interesting domestic •cene under this new regime. “Miehaella!” the mistress calls. “Mioha ellal” Enter Miehaella, tho second girl, in a neat suit consisting of a calico jacket, short starched nainsook petticoat, and coarse checked trousers over cowhide boots. Her bopts make something of a clatter as she comes in over the hard-wood floor of the hall, and her mistress’ eyebrows knit a little. “Miehaella,” she says, “I must caution You aguiu to walk a little more softly. hat Your moustache still in curl papers at this hour! And please do not come too near, for I am afraid I shall discover that you have been smoking agaiu and I do not want to adminster too many reprimands at once. ” “ Yis’m. (With a grin). Fvvhat is it ye want, mum?’* "Go down and tell Patricia that I want to see her.” Exit Miohaella. tip-toeing painfully along the floor, and exhibiting a vanishing per spective of broad boot heels. Enter presently Patricia in a costume somewhat resembling Michaella’s, with the difference that the petticoat is of gingham in a large pattern and the trail of the kitchen is over it all. Patricia’s foot fall is even more emphatic that Micha ella’s, and its measured “calump, ealump,” crescendo, gives abundant notice of her coining. “Perhaps, Patricia,” says the mistress, as the cook scrapes a rough chin and makes an exceedingly awkward courtesy, “these frayed pantaloons may be good enough for rough work around the kitchen and shed in the morning, but I wouldn’t wear them all day. Have you begun the preparations for dinner, Patricia'” “Yis, mum. I have put the bread to bile, mum, and t he bafeshteak to bake ” Fury and explosion on the part of the mistress. Such contretemps, it is fair to assume, would be but infrequent under the new industrial regime. Even now they arise occasionally in the best-regulated dom estic interiors. The idea is presented merely for what it is worth. SPYING OUT SMUGGLED GOODS. Work of the Women Inspectors of the New York Custom House. From the Few York World. The dock of any of the European steamship companies is an excellent place to see for yourself whether women inspectors earn their money. A woman writer for the World went over to New Jersey with two of the women inspectors recently. They were very companionable women, receiving the stranger pleasantly, and one, a fourteen year office-holder, giving all possible infor mation as to the rules, regulations, and ex periences. Amid the bustle and excitement that attend the landing of a shipload of passengers the women inspectors stand on one side of a portable desk, the men on the other, and as the first man or woman comes up with his slip declaring his bag gage an inspector is assigned. Imagine, for instance, the first passenger whose trunks are opened. It is a trying time. The woman inspector begins on the first opened trunk by making a dive at the big canvas catchall made to hang up in the state room. She empties all the pockets, feels of the sponge, shakes the tooth-powder vigorously, gives the comb and brush a crack and drops them so the next turn will slide the things all out —among the clothes. The next thing is a warm shawl carefully pinned up in a towel. “That towel has never been washed?” Out come the pins aud into the inspector’s mouth they go. The shawl is passed, but the 10c. towel is strung over the back of the trunk. There’s a basket down at the bottom of the trunk. Out it comes, but it con tains nothing but the second best bonnet. Shake the shoes! Rattle the modest little common-sense slippers! Open the puff-box! Smell the cologne! Unfold the prim little home-made undergarments, flaunt their hems and tucks to the breezes. They prob ably need airing, anyway. Scratch the corners, tap the bottom of the trunk, and that one is done. Then another trunk is gone through in the same manner. Every little poverty of possession will be displayed and its owner will blush and beg and ex postulate all through, but (lie stem fingers of justice will get through that trank des pite it all and will fetch out at the end six cheap towels and a few little childish trink ets not worth appraising. The last thing out, the tired inspector straightens her aching back, mops her face with her handkerchief, gratefully puts her chalk-mark on the trunk and hampers, gives back her mouthful of pins, and goes to tell her friends that “That woman nearly drove her crazy with her talk. If they would only unlock their trunks and h Id their tongues, we wouldn’t get nervous, and they would be likely to come out a good deal better.” So says this experienced woman, who, after all, has been only doing her duty. The en tire performance, seen once from beginning to end, gives you a complete idea of the value of these women inspectors, their qnick eyes and quick wits. And surely no man could detect the dutiable from the unduti able goods in a woman’s trunk as these lively, energetic women do. And the hard-heartedness they must indi cate against tender, coaxing damsels is real ly touching. Here are two fair Boston flowers. One is short and the other is tall, and both are spectacled and wary. Both are like ice in the cool way they meet the vigilance committee. “We have a few trifles/’ they say, “but they are quite our own,” and they therewith put their arms about the grim inspector’s plump waist. “I’m sure,” says one, laying her head affec tionately on the shoulders of the law, “you never saw such badly packed trunks, but, really, I was so disgusted with my old duds when I had to bring them back again I just didn't care.” “I’m sure,” said the other, “my things must look very common after the elegant things you see every day,” therewith re ligiously laying out some non-dutiable trinkets of one kind and another. An hour later you pass by those dames from Boston. All the colors of the rainbow lie about them, and they are listening meekly to the words of the appraiser: “About SSO duty, madam, for each of you.” The Diamond Trade of Amsterdam. From the London Times. About 20,000 carats of rough diamonds reach the hands of the Amsterdam manu facturers each week. When finished these vary from $4 to $55 per carat, while some stones command very much higher prices. The capital invested in this trade is not all Dutch, for a very large proportion of the diamonds manipulated in Amsterdam be long to London and Paris bouses. Berlin, Franafort, St. Petersburg, Moscow, Rome. Naples, Barcelona a id Madrid, as well as Paris, London and New York, are all mar kets for diamonds prepared in Amsterdam. Besides Antwerp the diamond industry is carried on extensively nowhere olse. The trade is usually conducted on the cash sys tem, credit being generally short. The aggregate paid in wages to diamond work ers in Amsterdam is about £600,000 uer an num, and it is estimated that from 7,000 to 8,000 persons are employed in the industry, and in the business of buying and selling tho rough and polished stones. The wages of the men engaged in the various opera tions of cleaning, cutting, and polishing are decreasing, because of the constant increase in the number of skilled workmen and the never-ceasing accession of apprentices. The declared export of diamonds from Amsterdam to the United States in 1886 amounted to £275,708; but this by no means represents the total export, but those the invoices of which were presented to the Consul to be certified. A large quantity is sent to Paris and London to be dispatched to America, and many diamonds are also taken on the person. “Rough on Corns.” Ask for Wells’ “Rough on Corns.” Quick relief, complete euro.

THE MORNING NEWS: THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 10, 1887, A DELINQUENT ELEPHANT. Remarkable Punishment Inflicted at the Palace of Mandalay. Ftom the Primrose Magazine. Shortly before our arrival one of tho ani mals had greatly disgraced by re fusing to carry a certain weight of goods which had been piled on his hack. There is the regulation weight, and the beasts know to an ounce wliat they ought to carry, and if any of the mahouts attempt to put a sur plus amount on his or their Backs it is im mediately shot onto the ground. The ani mal in question hod beentduly laden with a weight which was under the regulation scale; but although it had been twice weighed, as Mrs. Gamp would say. before his own eyes, lie still refused to carry it. This was too much for even his in dulgent driver, so he accordingly re ported, and just as we arrived he was about to be tried for his extraordinary and obstinate conduct. Several elephants were led out into a large court yard, form ing a kind of circle round the delinquent, who seemed already to feel his position acutely, for he glanced anxiously from time to time at his mahout, who was visibly affected, and who stood by his bead. A karen presided over the court-martial and read aloud the indictment against ti e offender, the elephants which constituted the jury apparently listening with great attention. After the statement was finished and the mahout examined, who, by the way, gave his evidence with great reluc tance. the karen decided that the case had been distinctly proved, and the culprit was adjudged the punishment of twenty strokes, upon the announcement of the verdi t the jury marched in a most solemn manner to a dis tant part of the yard and returned with a switch about as large as a fair-sized scaffold pole. In the meantime the mahout had been addressing the offender, who was now weeping copiously, large drops of tears fall ing from his eyes, and occasionally a shrill and peculiar sound issued from his capacious throat. The executioners of the law were at hand, and stood about twelve to fourteen feet apart, each balancing with peculiar nicety in his trunk the aforesaid switch. The culprit was led up to the place, and as he passed number one there was a sound heard which resembled somewhat a sharp clap of thunder ; it was the first blow delivered by the dread myrmidons of the law. The blow was followed by a sharp, shrill scream, although there was evidently an attempt on the part of the culprit to suppress any ex hibition of pain. This punishment con tinued until the whole of the sentence had been carried out. Although I felt consid erable sympathy with the unfortunate de linquent, I was at the same time intensely amused with the thorough business-like air with which these ministers of justice carried out the sentence. There were no light blows delivered; but, as a matter of fact, each elephant determined to administer a heavier blow than his neighbor, and the sly twinkle in the eye as the blow was delivered was a sight to see. SHE KISS.-D THE DAINTY DUDE. A Jolly German Woman Who Caused a Sensation in a Street Car. From a Few York Exchange. She had evidently been to the market, for she had several big bundles and a heavy laden basket with her. She had also evi* dently purchased other goods than groceries, for a smile was spread all over her broad face and her breath, whenever one was un fortunate enough to get a whiff of it, had a decided flavor of beer. Elderly and stout, she managed witn difficulty to board the transfer car going north at the Fifty-ninth street station of the Eighth avenue road and settle down comfortably in the centre of the car. Four pretty girls, two of them carry ing tennis bats, a handsome young married woman with a baby and two young men enter the same car. One of the young men is a handsome, rollicking chap with a per petual grin on his face. The other is effeminate in appearance, is clad in a white flannel tennis suit, partially covered by a light overcoat and wears glasses on his nose. The two are friends, however, and bound for the Central Park tennis grounds at Nmty-fourth street, as are the four pretty girls. The stout woman beams all over the car, nods graciously to the pretty girls and then breaks out with a request to the conductor to “leef me got off on Ninety-nine strasse.” The conductor smiles, the pretty girls smile, and the attention of the rollicking young man is immediately attracted. His dudish friend is absorbed in the beanty of the tree 1 in the park. The stout woman, having gained everybody but the dude’s attention, asks the smiling conductor, “How much you gif the company? Veil, I don’t blame you. Uf I been a conductor by and by mebbe I own me a gar too," and then breaks into a hearty augh. The conductor’s face reddens just a trifle and the smile fades from his lips. The rollicking young fellow moves up closer and enters into conversation in German with the stout woman. He occa sionally laughs and nods towards his dudish friend whose attention is still fixed on the autumn leaved trees in the park. Suddenly the stout woman arises and, piloted by the rollicking young man, tramps down the car. Stopping liefore the dudish youug man, she spreads out her arms, seizes him in a loving embrace, and proceeds to kiss him several times. The astonised young dtide turns pale and struggles to release himself. The pretty girls scream with laughter, the handsome young married woman nearly lets her baby fall, and the ro’licking yoon; fellow dances a jig in his delight. “Kiss him again,” he said. “You only kiss him five times, and that’s bail luck. Kiss him again for luck;”and she does with a ven geance. Finally the dude gets away and he jumps from the car. The rollicking young fellow follows him, and the stout woman, re.-umiug her seat, volunteers the informa tion that the dude’s friends had told her in German his friend “been sick, und kussen kures him.” Woman’s Capabilities. From the Forum. Men. from that large ego doubtless im planted in them for useful purpoies, have a tendency to see things solely from their own point of view, and to judge things not as they are, but as the world will look at them, with reference to their individual selves. Their sense of order, their power and in clination to take rouble, are rarely equal to a woman’s. Her very narrowness makes her more conscientious and reliable in mat ters of minute detail. A man’s horizon is wider, his vision larger, his phj-sical and in tellectual strength generally greater than a woman’?; but he is, as a riue, less prudent, less careful, les< able to throw himsseif out of himself, aud into the interest of other people, than a woman is. Granted a enpao e woman, and one that has had even a tithe of the practical education that all men have or are supposed to have, she will do a matter of business, say an executor ship, secretaryship, etc., as well as any man, or even better than most men, because she will take more pains. Did g rls g-t from childhood the same business training as boys, and were it clearly understood m all families that it is not a credit, but a dis credit. for women to be idle, to hang help less on the men instead of doing th ir own work, and, if necessary, earning their own living, I believe society would be not the woi-se. but the better for tho change. Men would find out tha the more they elevate women, the greater use they get out of them. If, inste .and of a man working him self to death far his unmarried daughters, and then leave them ignotuiniously depen dent upon male relations, tie educated tuein to independence, made them aole both to maintain and to protect themselves, it would save him and them a world of unhappiness. They would cease to be either the rivals —a very hopeless rivalry—or. the plaything first, and then the slaves of men, and lie come, as was originally intonded, their co mates, equal and yet different, eacn sex supplying the other’s deficiencies, an.!, therefore, 8-ted to work together, not apart, for tho good of tue world.
