They Need Some More Schooling.
?- Philadelphia Ledger. , -These
Third party men will have
to go to some political school before
anybody can safely take them for
guides. Here, for example is Mr.
McCune, who is represented as show
ing that the Third party is to throw
the election into the House 'and Sen
ate, and thus secure! the election of
General Field for ! Vice-President.
He says: "The President and
Vice-President cannot both be
from the same State. The Senate,
therefore, cannot elect Mr. Reid
it Cleveland' is chosen in the
House. They would then . be
confined in their choice to Stevenson
and our man Field, and they would
certainly take the latter." Mr. Mc
Cune should reread his copy of the
Constitution. It does not say. the
President and Vice-President cannot
be both from the same State, but that
"the Electors shall meet in their re
spective States and vote by bal
lot for Presidentand Vice-President,
one of whom, at least, shall not be an
inhabitant of the same State with
themselves." Even : under this pro
vision a Presidentand Vice President
might ; be chosen from the same
State. It was intended, apparently,
' to prevent a party from nominating
both candidates from one State. The
: House; is not limited as to its choice
-of President, except that it chooses
from the three highest on the Hst of
' those voted for as President and
votes fcy States; the Senate makes
its choice from the highest on the
list, so, presumably. Gen. Field
would not be eligible to be voted for
at all it the election of Vice Presi
dent should be thrown into the
Senate, j '

A DUEL WITH LASSOS.
Two Arizona Cowboys Fight to a
Finish In a Novel Manner.
A fierce,, unique duel was fought at
Tombstone, Ariz.,' recently, by two
cowboys, Buster Billings and Jim
Collins. They had quarreled over
one thing or another every time
they had met. Finally they had a
fierce set-to in words over a story
one of them told in a bar-room about
, his skill in lasso throwing, the usual
frontier insults were uttered, and the
one whose skill had been sneered
at Buster Billings declared that if
they were outside he would fling his
"lass" over the other one's neck and
drag him to the place that isn't men
tioned in polite society. Tim dared
him to come on and try it, and off
they started. , j
They, mounted their ponies and
galloped off at breakneck speed, fol
j. lowed by all the "men who had or
; could get horses. Four or five miles
from town they stopped; 'each one
picked out two friends from the
crowd to" watch proceedings, and
half a dozen others, now reinforced
by strangers, who galloped out trom
town, sat on their horses in a little
group and cheered impatiently. ;v ,
The duelists were mounted on
mustang ponies, trained to the habits
of lasso-throwing,, and quick to obey
the slightest motion of a rider's
i body. The men, with their coiled
lariats in hand, their faces distorted
with anger, circled around each
other for a moment, and then the
battle began. I ..;.
The lassos went I hissing through
the air, the men dodged, the ponies
sprang to one side, the ropes were
coiled again and went spinning and
singing to their aim with such rapid
ity that the spectators could scarcely
follow the movements." Sometimes
a lariat would fall on a ponies back
and make him plunge and rear, while
his rider did some, adroit dodging
and ducking until he got the animal
under control again. ! Sometimes it
would fall on the shoulder, back, or
arm of a man. The bodies of both
men after the fight were a .mass of
.black bruises and livid welts, says a
correspondent of the New York Sun.
The fight lasted for half an hour,
and all -who saw it agree that it was
the 'wildest and most exciting half
hour they ever passed. The marvel
ously quick taming, and wheeling of
the ponies, the grace and skill with
which the men sat on their horses.
' their quickness of eye --and hand, and
the agility with which they avoided
the noose, and, above all, the rapidity
and skill with which the lassos were
thrown, made a scene of breathless
excitement.
r At the end of half an' hour both
men were nearly exhausted, but
neither was willing to quit. When
t Collins swayed a little in the saddle
his opponent, quick as a flash, took
advantage or his temporary weak.

Nashville, August 20.--.A special to
the Banner says: The men who fought
under 'Major Carpenter on the brow of j

that Col. Wallord acted with a cowardice
that has no equal j in the present cam
paign except that exhibited by him in
refudhg to march from Harrimonto
Oliver Springs, when he knew he was
so sorely needed at the latter place.
James Harris and Shell Hall, prominent
citizens, say that when the miners
showed up Col. Walford and some of
his men kept out of the fight. 'The
Colonel, they say, rushed up to the
Knoxville men and began yelling, "Keep
inline!" (.- '
He was soundly abused and jeered by
the Knoxville men lor so doing. Af
terwards, Mr. Harris says, he gathered
some of his brother cowards around,
and they all ran like sheep, almost caus
ing a stampede in the entire force. When
the citizens and soldiers had again got
together near Clinton, Col. Walford, it
is claimed, plainly showed that he was
ashamed of himself, and when others
went on to Coal Creek he went there
too. While in this city Col. Walford
was heard to say Ihe did not want to go
to Coal Creek. j
KnoxviLle. Tenn., Aug. 20. Little
news has reached this city from Coal
Creek to-day, both on account of quiet

Carnes relieved from service this morn
ing have reached the city and a meeting
is now in progress at the court-house, j
This city has been stirred to its core
but it is confidently believed that the
trouble is over. Gen. Games has with
him seven hundred uniformed soldiers

nothing of his dictating the rule of other

The Republicans' are now in
citing the Third party people to- allege
that the Democrats have put Harry
Skinner up to his speeches, which have
certainly made the "nigger in the fence 'j

the Republicans have inspired most of
the Third party plans and schemes.
Half stands confessed. When Loge
Harris attends a mixed caucus of Re

says he did last Monday night, it shows
that something - is going on under
the surface. The caucus rfef erred to was
not the one at which the Connecticut
missionary Houghton spoke. Houghton
brought aid and comfort here in the
way of dollars and cents and adminis
tered it where it would do the most
good. He had the satisfied look in tbe
early hours of the convention of a man
who had finished his work in a desired
way and was ready to go home. When
