One Does Turn. 
In his “Memoirs,” Alexander Dumas relates 
this story of the duel between Dumas and Gail- 
lardet, which Dumas relates in his best manner. 
One or two touches in the narration are in¬ 
tensely characteristic. He begins by saying that 
as he started for the place of the combat Bon- 
naire, a friend of his, came up to him with an 
album in his hand. “Ah!” he said, “you are go¬ 
ing out. Are you in a hurry?” 
"Why do you ask?” 
“Because, if you are not, I should like you so 
much to write something in this album.” 
“Well, leave it in my room, and when I come 
back I will write something in it.” 
“You can’t now?” 
“No; I am in a hurry to keep an appointment, 
and would not be late for any consideration.” 
“Where are you going?” 
“To fight a duel with Gaillardet.” 
“Oh, then please write something now. Think 
how delightful it would be for my wife to pos¬ 
sess the last lines you ever wrote.” 
"Ah!” said Dumas, “you are right. I will not 
deprive Madame Bonnaire of that pleasure,” and 
so saying he went back and wrote a few lines in 
the album. 
Then, when they were on the ground, Bixio, a 
friend of Dumas, who was a doctor, said to him, 
“Shall you hit him?” 
“I don’t know,” said Dumas. 
“Try to.” 
“I shall certainly try; but do you dislike him?” 
“Not at all; I don’t know him.” 
“Then why so anxious?” 
“Well, have you read Merimee’s ‘Etruscan 
Vase’ ?” 
“Yes.” 
“Then don’t you remember that he says every 
man killed by a bullet turns round before he 
drops? I w'ant to see if it’s true.” 
He had no opportunity of seeing on this occa¬ 
sion, for the duel was fortunately harmless; but 
the pendant to this odd story is that Bixio himself 
was shot some years afterward at a Paris barri¬ 
cade—shot to death—and as he fell, turning, he 
cried, “Ah! one does turn, then!” 
On Burrard Inlet, in British Columbia, dwells 
one logging camp boss, known far and wide by 
the name of Lev. He is a hunter of some im¬ 
portance, and a rifle shot of more than ordinary 
skill. One rainy day Lev took his gun and sailed 
forth for a deer hunt, but was overtaken by 
darkness while a long way from the camp; and 
forced to remain in the woods all night. On 
searching his pockets he found he was without 
matches. The logging crew blew horns, fired 
guns, etc., to guide him home, but without avail. 
Morning returned, and Lev made his way home 
just as the crew were turning out for breakfast. 
Hungry, wet and tired, he sat down in front of 
the big camp-fire, rested his face on his hands, 
his hands on his knees, looked vacantly at the 
blaze, and for about ten minutes appeared lost in 
contemplation. He then spoke, “Boys, did you 
ever hear of a person making a fire by rubbing 
two sticks together?” 
“Oh, yes,” replied several, “easy enough to do. 
Common thing,” etc. 
Lev waited patiently till they all got through, 
and then exclaimed, “It may be easy enough to 
do, and perhaps has been done, but I’ll be eaten 
alive if ever anybody did it in one night.”
