MITCHEL -Interlaken 1M U genni ??Mitral point for tourists to make short trip? visit lng Swiss pisces of lot crest. Perhaps tile most Interesting of nil these trips is to take a train nt Interlaken for Grindelwald, thence up the steep side of n mountain to Scheldegg. j When I made thin trip the rnllwuj nao;? R?hetdegg to the top of the .limp frau was just begun. In the esr ns condini,' from Criudelwnld ros a young American willi two guide? who was Intending to ascend tho Jungfrau from Scheldegg. Ile was a quiet. Inof fensive fellow, hut the fact thai he carried an lee ax indicated that he was a climber. A Frenchman with a wax ed mustache and n goatee proportion ately small seemed disposed to guy him Webster, the American, kept his tem per. but. being quicker nt renurtec, gut , the better of him and set the car laughing at him. This made the Frenchman, whose mime was Du Pierre, angry, and lie lusulted Wehster Since they were sitting opposite each other Webster reached forth his hand and slapped the other's cheek. Every one es peet vd a fight, but since we were climbing ut an angle of some thing Uko forty degrees no one relished the prospect of having one. We could pot blame Webster for resenting an insult at the moment rather than hav ing it puss bito something mure seri OOS. Nevertheless, the affair did pas* into something more serious. The Frenchman, bunding Webster his card ?aid: .This ls no pince for nu altercation." Of course that meant a challenge, but when or where the end of the af fair would be reached no one' knew, and few canst. When we reached Scheldegg I, heine a fellow countryman of Webster's, he calle! upon me. as!; tog me to B>? to Du lierre mid make an effort tu. set tlc the matter Before doing su 1 learned from II mau wbu had witnessed the fracas In the car timi the Frenchman wns n celebrated Paris duelist I had therefore very little i hope of securing un adjustment, and 1 tb.it hope was extinguished as noon ns I met the Frenchman's representative Be Informed nie that such an insult SS he bad received unavenged would ruin his reputation at hume, ile could not afford even to accept an npu'.'gy. .Webster turned ?ut ru he n sheep Miser in the heart of the ftoi-ky nanni fains and nsed tn higli altitudes. Ile directed me tu accept Du Pierre's chnl len ge. By the code Webster was eh titted to ino choice of weapons und the terms of'the light. He directed-me to make the following provisions: One of tho principals wns tu go to a point on the road a mlle down toward Laatcr brunneu. the other remaining nt Sehe) d?gg. Each was to he tinned with a re fp?ver, two chambers loaded. At ?n appointed bour tbey were to advauce and begin tiring whenever they chose to do so. The road leering Scheldegg la not st first steep, end it made little difference which ol. the two won the Scheldegg end. Du Pierre, who supposed. he would fight under terms to which be bsd been accustomed, was Indignant nt such on ' innovation, but ' since I assured bim that Webster would only fight him on' tho terms offered be was obliged either to go back to Paris having bad bis face stepped without having wlp. i oat tbe Insult or accept the situ?t lou. Tbs matter was kept perfectly quiet Those wbo had witnessed the" fracas in the ear were tourists and scattered is all directions. Consequently when one went out the next morning as tbs |. ann was casting ita first beams os the I surrounding peaks there wet no one present except the principals, their sec onds and a surgeon who was stopping at one of the. hotels. Du ."lerra won the toss and chose to move out from Scheldegg. Two shots were given each man, and Webster and 1 went down the incl lue for s mlle.- walting there foe tb* time for the duelists to. ?t?rt X started bim on the minute, and he advanced slowly np. the road. The two mes could see each other for near ly tte whole distance. When they wars a quarter of s mlle ?part the Frenchman, baiting, took deliberate aim and ?rea, 'xii? b?i? feil On tbe road some distan?a from the American. I now saw the meaning ot Webster's tactics. Having lived in a mountain ous country, he realised bow much nearer objects appeared through the air than they were. Du Pierre bsd supposed he bsd b!s enemy within range when be was not I could see that be was surprised that his shot bad not taken effect, but I doubt if he ??ew G>e treason.. Webster cow had two shots to his enemy's one. bot showed no siga of firing. They continued to nd vii nco for perhaps a hundred feet when Webster soddenly raised lil? weapon. Dh Pierre at once raised bis snr. fired, va ster lowered his pistol. A spent ball sfmck him ia lue teg. bul did no se rious damage. Thia ended the fight, for the French men bsd used both his shots, while the American bad need neither of his. and ibe latter bad no ittcntiou of shooting an unarmed _v~^y. indeed, be bsd planned the sffnlr to rc-sit exactly as it bad resulted. Handing his weapon to me. be Walked np th*? road, lifted his bat aa he passed Du Pierre ?nd pr" reeded to the sta Stun.
