so Htnrtlcd that I almost fainted. It was
when, fur tho first time, I took a foil in
my hand. Ah, how my heart leaped, no
if with joy, nH I Kiasped the (inn hilt,
and what n thrill i;lioik me na the tin
gen of my left hand passed caressingly
nlonj the sinuous steel! It seemed as if
I wero welcoming un old friend niter a
lonn; alisencc; and yet, I could not tell
why.
1 had always had an instinctive liking
for sword play, hut I knew nothing: of
iU science.
Then, too, I shall never forget that
flrsl hout. Pastime was never more con
Kenial; skill never came, more readily and
naturally to a lieRinner. What was it at
work on mo ? 1 sprung forward at a
mocking challenge, and 'when steel
touched steel a strong electric current
passed through me. My opponent, he it
known, wns no nuvicu, but he found
that tho di'spUed beginnor watt not to ho
buttoned freely and at will. Ho sought
to trifle with mo, and tempted my blade,
to thrust, exacting to place meat his
mercy. You should have seen his facet
Instead of making awkward pussiH I
lunged en cai to, en tierce once! twice!
thrice! and for every time that I sa
luted he was hit twice. My guard was
perfect, and he bit his lip in vexation.
My companions looked on in amazement
I was no less astounded by my own
prowess and my vanquished opponent
at the close of the bout laughingly ac
cused me of having studied in secret that
I might humiliate him. My Ksitive
half angry denial non-plussud but did
not convince him. That night I sat for
hours in a brown stuny, striving to
fathom the mystery; but an impenetrable
mist surrounded me, and all that came
therefrom was the ominous clicking of
steeL
After that I was no stranger to the
foils. Skill and finesse developed them
selves. But there was always that im
petuouRness, that fierceness, that heart
and sAil enthusiasm on my part, until
the others, fearing them, would not
fence with me; and it came to pass that
in my moody moments I fought with an
imaginary antagonist, so euger was I to
feel the hilt in my nervous hand.
One day as I stood, foil in rest, adjust
ing my cuff, my modern environment
suddenly melted away. I stood in the
open air. I was in a grove; the foliage
luxuriant, the sward beneath a beautiful
green. A faint, scent ladon breeze
stirred the atmosphere; the loveliest
flowers blossomed h're and there, and
in the background I saw an old castle,
ivy grown and massive, from the height
of whose gray tower thore fluttered a
crimson pennant. Before me stood a
young man, sword in baud, in strange
attire, his form clothed in rich black
Telvet and decked with a profusion of
feathery lace. I marvelled, for lia was
a stranger to ino, yet I had a vague rec
ollection that I bad seen him before.
Where was it? I cudgelled my brain in
vain. Looking down, I beheld myself
in raiment like hU own, save that there
was less lace and I wore heavy riding
boots, while he had none. The gleam of
another sword reflected my imiuiiing
wondering glance. Near him lounged a
companion, in similar costume, who
scow led darkly at me.
" Allow! messieurs!"
The exclamation recalled my scattered
senfos, and I instinctively placed myself
on guard, the other doing likewise.
Click! click! The swords mot my foil
had by some process boon motaniorpliosed
into a keen rapier and the blades moved
cautiously. Ah! a lunge! "Mon Dieu!"
whispered somo one, drawing a quick
brealh, as if fearing for iny safety. Tho
thrust was close, but I parried with light
ning rapidity and forced my antagonist
to give way. Once! twice! his Made
glided along my own like a metal snake
and came perilously near, but my wrist
was now liko knit steel, anil for tho third
time I evaded fate. 1'assion seized mo
then for what reason I can not tell and
my sword liecamo swift as a bar of sun
light. Click! click! an incredibly quick
movement! a cry I Ah, my Clod! Tho
blood spouted from his breast, and ho
fell heavily, while some one laid a hand
upou my shoulder and whispered, ex
ultantly; "Bienl e'est magnitude!" I
turned to mechanically grasp tho hand
of another strange actor in this stranger
drama my second, presumablyand I
experienced a sense of triumph.
Then a woman's shriek pierced thi si
lence. It In ringing In my ears now, like nn
echo from the remote pant. A woman
almost a girl dashed into our midst,
Ppnyig to tho nldo of tho fallen mnn,
bent and encircled his neck with her nrm,
nnd rained passionate, despairing kt'H.'S
upon his hawNotnq face. Too laie! too
lato! Just heaven! why did no pity
creep into my stony heart? A smile il
luminated bis ashen features nt slirht of
her; then It vanished with the liM in
his glazing eves, nnd as a ghastly rattle
broke the stillness a crv escaped her ami
she fell lifelcm across his dead body.
Tin- scene faded. I whs again stand-in-in
the long room pensively resting
upon the hilt of my foil, the cynosure of
laiiehing eye, the object of goo I nalured
liadinage. They told me that I should
lake lo the mimic stase, to perfectly li 1
I net the part of n duelist. The expres
sion of my face, they said, was match
less. I have since refrained from touching
a sword.
And over in my study, on the street,
anywhere there conies a time when I
hear a peculiar sound click! click!
Then my fingers twitch nervously; I
seem to hold a rapier, long nnd keen; a
grovo surrounds me, and I face an un
known but half familiar antagonist. I
hear the peremptory words : "Allons,
messieurs!" Next click; click! Tho
cautious paj.ses! the lunges! the parries!
the Tall! the shriek!, the rattle! tlio
woman's cry of anguish my God, it
is terrible!
And then I am myself again.
What can it in -an? What memory

The Dpcllna of Muaan, Mary, Jane, Sarah,
C'uthrrlnc, anil All the Old Favorites,
The roll of honor in the public school
affords ns nn excellent opportunity to
study the present fashion in girls' names,
says the New Orleans Tiims Itrmncmt.
The names of our mothers and grand
mothers, largely Biblical and universally
in use at the lieginniug of the century,
are out of favor to-day.
In nearly a thousand names there is no
Nancy (extremely popular in the hint
century), and but a single Martha and
Maria. Jane has gone almost out of u-e,
there U-ing but two recorded, nnd.
strange to say, both of French parent
age, but a number of Jeunies and Jean
iH'ttcs survive. There is one Kmily and
one t'harliitt", no Catherine, but two
Kates, and innumerable Katies, which
seenis to lie the latest form that Cather
ine has taken Catherine, Kate, Katie.
Sarah, very popular "i0 years ago, has
practically disapie:uvd in favor of .Sallio
nnd Sadie. Caroline is also out of fash
ion, superseded by Carrie and Lena. Su
san does not boast a single representa
tive, but thcxnro a numberof Susies; and
Eli.alieth has retired from service in fa
vor of Lizzie. There are but three Mar
garets, but plenty of Marguerites and
some Margarettas. Ellen is dead as a
name, but Nellie is still quite popular.
Mary bus leen thought the most fre
quent female name, hcim.; both euphoni
ous and pleasantly and honorably asso
ciated. It is said that, one-third of tho
women and girls of France are Maries.
It is different in New Orleans, where tho
numlier of Marys is very small and grow
ing smaller every day. There are a num
ber of Mollies and Mamies, and not a few
Maries; indeed, at one time it looked as
if all the Anglo-Saxon Marys would be
gallicised into Marie, but so many be
came converted that it rather overdid
tho business, and Marie became as com
mon as Mary, which may account for
the number of girls of French or Creole
parentage who bear tho English form of
the name " Mary. "
Shakespeare s names are coming in as
fashionable, even at this day. There
were more Violas on tho roll of honor
of the public school than Janes, Kates,
Emilys Ellens, Nancys, Margarets, Caro
lines, Marthas, Marias, Susans, aud
Sarahs together. The name is fashion
able just now, but we are afraid its
popularity will not last long, for our
colored citizens have taken hold of it,
and have doomed it to the sumo fate us
Violet and Piukio. Stella is a good
second, and Mable, Ethel, Alma, Daisy,
Luella, Lorretto, Ldua, and lata, fol
low as in most favor just at present.
Any one of them will discouut Susan,
Sarah, or Jane many times over, and
even lead Mary.
liuby, quite in favor 15 years ago, is
getting rather antiquated. The fanciful
names of tho last century, as Amanda
and Malvina, are also going out Hazel,
which came in with Hazel Kirk some
dozen years ago, did not "stick" ami is
not increasing. "Birdie" has been
laughed out and is less common than 10
years ago; indeed, a number of Birdies
have converted it into Bertie. Gladys is
apparently forcing its way to the front,
and promises to be well received. Pearl,
Penrlie, and 1 erlo tiro ulso coming m,
and nearly every form of Koso will do
but Hose itself, for there nre Hosullaa,
Kosettas, Bo.selias, and ltosamouds.
Shakespeare, as wo have said, is a
prime favorite for female names. His
Viola leads them all in New Orleans, and
even Ophelia is quite common among
the girls, notwithstanding that lady's un
happy fate; but apparently no mother
lias had the courage to name her daugh
ter Desdeinonia. The opera has given
us Aida, Norma, and Carmen which
seem to have crept in of lato all rather
inappropriate names,' taking tho lives of
these ladies into consideration. Loi.g
follow's Priscilla has but a single repre
sentative on tho roll. Secassia recalls
tho late war; but how is it that Secassia
is attending tho public schools of this
luto day ?
But of pure faucy names, picked up
here and there from novels or poems, or
possibly "thought out," there is no end.
It will be seeu that if any ouo can sug
gest a good name for a girl there aro
dozens of mothers prepared to adopt it
at once. If the present tendency con
tinues, Sarah and Susan will become so
rare in auolher generation that they will
Bound sweet to us again and bo honored
by our grandchildren as they were by
our grandfathers. Wo fell it necessary
to warn godmothers that the Viola,
Stella, and Daisy racket is boiug overworked.
