In aplte of the warm weather, there
have been numerous large partis during
th week, and a number are planned for
the future. Prominent among the affairs
of the week was the hop at Fort Crook
Thursday evening and the Omlkron
dancing party Friday evening at Happy
Hollow. ' Besides these, aeveral large
parties were given at the clubs. The
calendar for the coming week la alao
promising. Numerous affalra are being
planned for some of the guests from
out of town, and the brldea who have
recently returned from their wedding
trips will be honor gueata at luncheons
and dinner parties. Bcores of Omaha
people are leaving for cooler climes, and
their friends ar feting them before they
depart.
Without exception Cupid la the busiest
fellow in society this summer, fnlike
others, Instead of wilting, he seems to
hav redoubled his energy and doesn't
avn think of a vacation. The younger
set has afforded especially attractive
material this season, to be sure, but U
not sufficient to monopolise his atten
tion, and he has found time to undo some
of his work of last year and the year be
fore and arrange things differently. And
he hae even gone further than thla, ao
cordlng to Dame Rumor, and haa af
fected a reconciliation between one cou
ple who, not a great while ago, denounced
htm and hla work aa a fraud.
It la no aecret that an out-of-town man
Is very much Interested In one of the
fair member of the younger set. Then,
there are so many young couples whom
Cupid has paired off at all three of the
country clubs. Ah Interesting rumor
concerns two other members of 'the
younger set, both are members of prom
inent famlllea. The young woman, who
la one of the prettieat glrla in Omaha
society, la Seen quit often driving her
electric, while tlia young man, who la In
business In South Oraaha, la also an en
thusiastic driver, but he prefera a gaao
llne car.

THINKS OF VETERAN BOARDER
He Beta Forth a In pie Ilale
for
tha Galdance of the Inti.
perlenced.
"How true It If," said th veteran
boarder, "that w never know when we
are well off.
'This is particularly true of Uf In
boarding houses. We think how much
better tho food and cooking and the serv
ice might be In the place where we are,
never thinking how much poorer we might
find them elsewhere.
'At the same time there are certain
things that It Is wise to consider in the
selection of a boarding house, on of these
concerning the bounteousnens of the table.
You cannot live by dlahes alone; you must
have food; a pretty table would little
please If there were on It nothing to eat;
and so I suppose It will be conceded that
In choosing a boarding place th question
of whether we would get enough to eat
or not would be an Important, If not In
deed the primary, consideration.
"Fortunately there Is a simple way by
which we can determine this before taking
board permanently. Appearances are de
ceitful and we may sometimes be misled;
but this simple way that I will now de
scribe to you will at least serve as a use
ful guide.
"If you ar wise you will eat a sample
dinner In the house in advance, pending
negotiations; and If you find the meat
portions served generous and the vege
tables served to you In dlahes from which
you help yourself to so much as you
desire, It Is a fair presumption that In
this house you would get enough to eat.
The meat portions might not be very
large, but If they wer of fair dfmenslons
and the vegetables were still served so
that you could help yourself to whatever
you wanted, and the bread supply was
ample, why, then you might consider
that here you would get enough to eat;
but If the vegetables are served to you In
little side dishes, containing portions
dished out In the kitchen, why, then It I
your own fault If you go astray.
"To be sure, the portlona In the little

there I none too much profit In the
boarding house business, even at Its best,
there 1 a natural tendency to be skimpy

Six miles northeast of Washington, on I
the eastern brink of the Anacostla branch
of th Potomac, and cn the old turnpike
road connecting Washington wtth R.iltl
more, stands ancient Bladenshurg now in
rulrs. It Is not only the oldest of all the
hatrlets that had Ilfo and heroic history
befor the war of the revolution, but It Is

it la probable that not one-half the popu

across the District of Columbia, and on
an Invisible line of the state of Maryland. ;
In the midst of tabled thicket and the j
fantastic drapery of'vlnes. wreathed in the j
ancient treea, la the famoua old dueling
rround. Here the most famous duels were j
forght, the most desperate and fatal ever
known on the western continent. It In j
rightly named the "dark and bloody i
ground." It Ilea In a deep valley sur-
lounded on all sldea ty high hills. There
Is a narrow cow path now across the "flpld
of honor." where men of blood nnd iron
settled all questions of honor with blond
Instead of organising an Ananias club.
Thirty Dnels Fongbt There.
More than thirty duels were fought on
thla fatal spot. Aa early a a 1S14 Cantaln '
Edward Hopklna of Maryland, then an
iralgn of infantry, was slain here In a
duel with swords. On Februat-y (I, 1S19, a
rtei-perate and fatal duel was fought here
between two famous Virginians, both of
the F. F. V. pedla-ree General Mason,
formerly Cnlted states senator, and Colonel
John M. McCarty. They were second
cousins, but had quarreled over politics.
McCarty first challeneged Mason, but
Maaon declined on account of the condi
tions. Afterward, when Mason waa riding
through Richmond, Va., in a stage, with
General Andrew Jackson of Tennessee, the
general told Mason he should now chal
lenge McCarty.
When McCarty received the challenge he
accepted and named the conditions, that he
and Mason should leap together from the
great dome of the capltol, 210 feet above
the ground. Theee terma were declined aa
against the code duello. Then McCarty
proposed bowle knlvea, close range, which
was also declined. The next proposition
was muskets loaded with buckshot, ten
feet apart. These terms Mason accepted.
At 8 a. m. Mason and McCarty met on this
fatal field. At first fire Mason fell dead,
and McCarty was severely wounded on the
rtght arm, but recovered disabled for life.
Admiral Decatur Killed.
The next most famous duel was on March
C 1830, between Admiral Stephen Decatur
and James Barron, a commodore of the
navy. Admiral Decatur was then In the
full vigor of his manhood and at the senith
of his fame. The cause of this duel was
as follows:
In 1807 Commodore Barron was In com
mand of th United States frigate Chesa
peake. On meeting the British ship Leo
pard h allowed several of his seamen,
claimed aa British deserters, to be taken
from his deck without firing a gun, and
this waa one of the Incidents that brought
on the war of 1812 between the United
State and England. Admiral Decatur was
chosen by the secretary of the navy as
one of the members of the court-martial
that found Commodore Barron guilty. After
the court-martial Barron challenged Ad
miral Decatur to deadly combat. This duel
was fought with pistols, eight paces apart.
Both fired at th same Instant and both
fell at first fire.
Admiral Decatur died at 11 o'clock that
night, but Barron recovered. A leading
Washington paper printed th following
the next morning:
"Commodore Stephen Decatur, the pride
of his country, the noble-hearted gentle
man, la no more. Mourn, Columbia, for
one of thy brightest stars Is set."
even Prove Fatal.
To give details of the seven fatal duels
fought on the same spot would make thin
letter too long. It was on this bloody
ground that Henry Clay fought bis no
torious duel.
A to dueling In general, It came to us
from across th Atlantic, but It waa the
bloody game of the gentlemen of hot blood
In this country for fifty year preceding
the civil war.
Dueling originated in the age of chivalry.
Chivalrous duel, however, were seldom
fatal, as knight fought each other In full
armor of steel. Neither did they have any
Ananias clubs In the fourteenth century,
and It was dangerous to fight duels either
with lance or broadsword.
In 1380, 829 years ago, a duel was fought
at Westminster, England, between a knight
nd a squire, both In full armor. They
became so exhausted that when thoy
closed and fell they had to be lifted from
the ground by their seconds, on account uf
that tired feeling." The next day the
squire died from exhaustion, and the chron
icles of the period wrote: "He died to the
delight of the people and the grief of all
traitors."
Great Tobacco Mart.
But old Bladenshurg, that was once a
smart town with 1,500 people, has other re
nown besides bloodahedding. It was a
great tobacco mart long before the war of
the revolution, when the eastern branch of
the Potomac was navigable, and sloops and
hips loaded tobacco on the docks at Iilad
ensburg to, make sail direct to Liverpool,
across the Atlantic.
At Bladenshurg still stands aa a live host
elry th "George Washington hotel," that
ha been kept continuously as a hotel for
177 years. It Is a two-story brick struc
ture, plastered and painted white, with a
projecting balcony on second story and a
largo board sign swung In front, with a
faded and battered head, of the Immortal
George, that looks to be at least 100 years
old. A tower projecta above the cen'er
roof, on which la painted in bold, black
letters: "Georg Washington Hotel. Eatab
Ilshed 1731." During the war of the revo
lution, Oeorge Waahlngton atopped over
night at thla hotel on hla way from Mount
Vernon to hla army.
Everything that Oliver Goldsmith said of
the "Ieaerted Village" can be aald (with
all th pathoa of th pauper poets) of old
Bladenaburg, aa it looka today deserted
and tottering to Its desth.
And dueling In the United States Is
deader thai Bladenaburg, and ought to be.

WHICH IS HOTTEST PLACE?
Decidedly Warm Rivalry Betweea
Two Tonne In th toath
weat. With the advent of hot weather th
old controversy betw-?en Yuma and
Needles, the firat in Arizona, and the
other In California, aa to which la the
hottest plac In the- United Statea, haa
been revived. Neither la clamoring for
the distinction oh, no. each ia atrlvlng
to thrust it upon the other! As a mat
ter of fact, the difference Is so alight
tl.at it inn't worth quarreling about.
From now on until late In September
the mercury will climb up in the tuue un
til lt'Teache the 130 mark nearly every
day In both places; and there are weeka
at a stretch when It never . falls below
100 even at night " One can cook egga
hard by simply burying them In the hot
nand. The Mojsve Indians of the lower
valley of the Colorado river always go
barefoot, and the hot aanda and atones
hove calloused their feet until they are
j hard and as lnaenelble to pain as the
hoofs of a horse; they can walk through
fire and trample red-hot coals without
flinching.
The estreme heat is du to th low al
titude, combined with the proximity of
the Colorado and Mojav deserts. For a
thousand miles on the east, and 600 on
the north and weat. stretrhea a waate

Yuma and Needles are hot. He only
wondera that they are not white hot.
