THE LITTLE TRAPEZIST.

In the private examination room Of Jefferson Market

seated Mistresses Myers and Barmore They had
been arrested by the court officers on the complaint
OF the little trapeze performer Nellie Potter with the
many aliases. Strange to say, this diminutive CON-
pAinant compelled to stand among the prisoners.
while the defendants. who were really under arrest
were furnished with a comfortable and retired room
TO sit in After weary hours Of waiting the case
called and the three appeared at the bar.

At this point Counsellor McClelland who appeared
for the deendants asked the girl II she had not lit
tie baby somewhere. Her reply was in the afirma-
tive.
Then the Court interposed and said that it might
have received false impression Of the girls worth
and character but it would postpone further invest
cation of the charges she had preferred against the
two women until this afternoon. Meanwhile they
compelled to give $500 bail each to insure their
appearance at the adjourned hearing.
just the closed Professor Ripley the trapeze
performer, stepped up to the Judge and requested
permission to tell what he knew of the girl Before
he could be stopped he gave her bad character in
general sort Of and denied that he had ever tried
to wrong her. He claimed that his wife had made the
clothes Nellie during her performances with
him and that he had perfect right to conscae them
