THE FRENCH DUEL
Tricks That Are Invoked to Make the
Meeting Bloodless
A French paper ha been describing
the various eontrivauces to insure pis
to duels ending in coffee for two A
favorite trick it seems is to use pro
jevtihs that look like ordinary lead bul
lets but crumble to pieces when tired
Iu more serious cases bullets are used
of smaller caliber than the pistol thus
lessening their penetrating power
Sometime- the wad is intentionally
left out so that when the duelists fae e
each other with the pistols held down
ward the bullets roll out In many
e ases bullets of the right caliber are
used but only with a third of the
proper powder charge so that they are
practically harmless A variation of
this rrick is to load with a double pow
der charge which also causes the bul
lets to go wide of the mark This how
ever is dangerous to the spectators
Again well meaning seconds some
times use the right bullets and the
right charge but stiffen the triggers so
that the extra pressure causes the bul
lets to go wide Perhaps the mosr
amusing device is the use of pistols
titled with a ort of secret safety
