Demi-mOnde Pink Plummer, alias
Minnie Taylor, invaded a respectable
picnic party at DunbaT's s Cave yeSter-
day. After getting reckfessly drunk,
and making herself disagreeable by
sending for young men, she got foil
Of fight coming to town, and halted
and shot twice at a young man, who
refused to be slobbered on. AfterWar1
she shot another man through the ear,
who, in turn, pulled her out of the
hack, took her pistol and beat her
fearfuIly with it, till from loss OF fblOod
they both tainted. They were only
separated by severing Minnie's flow

would not be alive and in jail tonight

spectacle, despite the cheering Of the
processionists and inspiring strains of

almost a wreck. Its canopy had been
carried away by one Of the telegraph
wires along the BOWery, and the
whole structure rocked to and fro,
like a weather cock. The pedestrians
in the parade were besmeared with
mud and soaked with rain. Some
surprise was manifested at the nom
aDpearance OF the militia regiments,
which were invited to attend. When
the proc ssiOn disbanded, numerous
ears were lin waitingi to convey all
who wished to 90 to Sultzer's East
River Park, where the remainder Of

different kinds, including an address
by Signor Corradi, singing the ma

good he has done il this country for
the cause of italian unity.
