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.

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 dishes may be generoua, but It Isn't in reason to expect that they would be. Dished up In the kitchen, where the rule la economy, aa In truth It haa to be. for there I none too much profit In the boarding house business, even at Its best, there 1 a natural tendency to be skimpy In the spoonfuls, and to put not too many of them In a dish. In tha kitchen they can keep control of what goes on the table and make a amall aupply auffioe for many board era, by the simple ex pedient ot dividing It up Into aa many portlona aa may be required to make It go around. In ahort, where you can help yourself you get all you want; wher you ar helped In the kitchen you may get all you want or you may not. "So, In choosing a boarding place note for one thlnsr. and I should say the firat thing. In wtiat manner the vegetables are aerved, and If they ar put on the table In Individual portlona In little dlnhea, why, then you want to look out; and If you have any question about the slxe of the portions you had better give yourself the benefit of the doubt. "A simple rule thla may aeem to be, but aa to whether the table Is generously supplied or not all experienced boarders find a sur guide In what comes In th llttl dishes."

FIELD OF 110N0R A COWPATH Ancient Bladentbnrg Dueling Ground . Little More Than a Memory. MUCH PISTOL SHOOTING THESE Weehlna-ten'e "rfsrk and Bloody" Graaart Whea the Code Flxlsted Thlrketa. 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 now th dead Fl it la probable that not one-half the popu lation of Washington of today ever hc.ird of Pladensburg. And yet a short half mile 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."
