MRS. MATTrSG.--Wh ich IL the name of
the woman who keeps the house where the
Burgess brutality occurred, on Bienville
street Through the Vaccinations of a
police court practicer abe is in trouble. and
to-day witnesses will be before tho grand
jury to testify what they know about her
intimidating witnesses. AS there are two
sides to most all things the public is ex
pected to hold it's breath until she has had
hearing. Perhaps she Is more sinned
against than SHINING. If she has attempted
to bride or intimidate witnesses in the
Burgess case the proof can be readily OBJ
tanned; if there is no proof then she should
have the benefit. Is there black mail in it !

EUIsANCEs.-All cities must have their
nuisances, and one that is in t1icted on New
Orleans is the beer house called the Crystal
Palace, probably so named because of its
transparency. Scarcely a day or night
passes that the corner of Chartres and
Cont streets is not disturbed by row. The
place has been running tor some years in
violation of city ordinances. Perhaps
Mayor Wilt had better look into it.

ONE OF THE FAST YOUNG MEN.-The son
of Second District merchant has been
playing fast and loose lately, all on his
fathers money. The youthful spendthrlft
collected for the parent, and made no re-
furn. or false entries, and the sum involved
will amount to about $1,000. When the
financial crisis came old pater called on one
of his Oldest and best customers for set
Element. Customer. in a white heat, pro-
duced a clear receipt, signed by the son,
and then followed further developments
and a scene. The father did not tear his
hair and have the undutiful boy arrested.

syren of the Oliver Twist kind was the
principal cause, although she is not as
handsome or bewitching as was Camille.

was found, Monday evening, under bridge
at the corner of Florida and Locust streets.
1t was taken in by the inmates of Judge
Duvigneaud's house and kindly cared tor.
where an attempt was made to learn some.
thing of it's young but eventiul history. Its
parents are unknown, and they may always
remain in obscurity.
Notwithstanding the child was tenderly
cared tor, it died last evening, probably
from the effect of the exposure it sustained
when under the bridge, where it mus. have
been about two hours in the cold.
