Into considerable excitement, caused by we'll.

young gentleman o complete thrashing, and
causing him to receive o severe bleeding without

ahuir was from the Tact that the elderly gentle.
not ysry great distance from her home, and
Saturday night at the hour mcntionec above
started homeward. She had not proceeded TAR
before she was met by the young man, who used
Insulting language towards her. The insult was
resented as we'll as she could, and hasty move
ment made to get out Of his reach, but he persist.
emily followed her to her home on Ninth street,
between and Boundary, on reaching which she
entered to front door aud cioscdit In the young
mans face. The insulting follower next rang the
door boil several times, which was answered by q
sister Of the young lady, and In reply as to his
business the fellow demanded admittsnce 10 see
the lady he had followed, and who he said had
Just entered the house The door was again closed
and the lady proceeded 10 awaken her father who
was aslcey up stairs and during the timc the per.
sistent youth amused himself by vigorously kick.
ing at the door. The father, rs soon as he could
dress himself, proceeded down stairs, but not
before the man had lcft. Chase was given and he
was caught on T, near seventh street, wgen q
lively scene cnsued, resulting In tho indlRtant
parent innlctinp the severest punishment on his
victim. The occurrence was witnessed by q large
number Of those residing In tho vicinity, and the
action OF the father was strontly ihdorsed by them
