iS - i ~gig S 1 ON THE WAR PATH, i ^
u-yie speaking of romance and
luMntv I have an authentic account of
how/iotod Louisville bello first met
her husband, which sound* more like
fiction than matter of- fact. About
Jhirtv-fire years ago tho landing of a
steamboat carrying pasaencera was con
sidered a social event of some impor
tance not only liecauso this was the
chief inode of travel where navigation
made it posjible, out because the superb
boats that then plied up and down the
Mississippi were floating palaces and
carried on board constantly the mos
brilliant crowds of society people.
The time spent on the water was
passed in dancing, feasting and flirting,
and on the occasion of which I am
speaking an unusually gay and dis
tinguished party wore on their way
to St. Louis. The party included
some of the most famous beaux
of the dav, aud the bello of the trip
was a wefl-knowii Louisville beauty.
It seems thattbo Louisvillo girl reached
her destination fancy free. For, os the
boat drew up to the lauding and the
crowd on shore surged down to the
water’s edge to secure a glimpse of the
new-comers, Miss , who wos loan
ing over the guards, became absorbed
in watching tho movements of a gentle
man by tho gangway. Ho was tall
and elegantly looking and strik-
iugly handsome. Miss did not
know his name, nor if he were
benedict or bachelor, but conviction
suddenly seized her, and, turning to a
companion, she said impressively:
“There (pointing out the gentlemau in
question.) stands tho man whom I will
marry.” In an incredibly short period
of time she did marry him; but tho
cream of the story lies in tho fact that
he hod made a precisely similar romark
in regard to her on first beholding the
fair Louisviliiau os she stood, sur
rounded by lier admirers, on the
steamer.
Military llncltnc In AiiutriM.
[London Times, j
A warm discimsiou is going on in
Vienna newspapers in connection with
the caso of an officer recently dismissed
from tho army for refusing to fight a
dnel. Two young men named Hintner
and Mori, both lieutenants in the re
serves, and both attending lecture in
tho University of (drat/., met last Octo
ber at a railway station. Mori made
use of some offensive expression, which
Hintner thought was intended for him
self. Ho askod Mori if it was so, add-
that if it wa 4, or if tho expression was
repeated,, he would box his ears.
Mori said it was intended for another
person, and the incident ended.
Four weeks lator Mori sent his sec
onds to Hintner, calling on him for a
written apology and withdrawal of tho
words, otherwise challenging him to
tight a duel. Hintnor refused to with
draw his words; ho also “refused
absolutely to light a duel, 1x cau.se it
was against his religion, against, roasou
and conscience, and also dueling was
forbidden both by tho civil and the
military law-.” .Hereupon tho matter
was brought beforo a court of honor,
consisting of superior officers of the
fourteenth Army corps. The decision
of this court was “approved” and pub
lished on the Jan. 1’J, ami simply
recites that “Josef Hintner, Lieutenant
in the Reserve of tho Tyrolese Jagev
regiment of tho Emperor Frauz-Josef”
is charged with “absolute refusal of a
duel, and tho sentence is that the
accused bo deprived of his commission
and rank.” This sentence, it appears,
becomes forthwith oporativo.

Many visitors to Statuary hall, in

noticed that in the statue of Wit

upper and the lower lips bulge out into
undue prominence- aud give tho ex-

follows: “I don’t beliove that it lias
