An Incident at . Hotel.

A SINGULAR affair happened at q
Petersburg (Va.) hotel the other day.
Two gentlemen, strangers to each other,
desired to be called at an early hour in

express train for the North. At the APP,
pointed hour the hotel messenger rap
ned at the door of the man from WASH
ington to arouse him. The occupant Of
the room, taking the messenger for an
intruder, jumped from bed, dashed at
him with pitcher in hand, and chased
him from the room. Returning, the
gentleman by mistake entered the apart
ment of the New Yorker, who was
dressing, and whom he also took to be
an intruder. A contest of strength en-
sued, during which the pitcher was
broken to pieces and both men were
slightly injured. The New Yorker es-
caped from the room and called tor
help, while the man from Washington.
master of tho situation, locked himself
inside. Help was soon obtained in the
person Of some men in the hotel and one
or two police officers, and the man from
Washington was persuaded to open the
door and go to his own room. He soon
AFTER seemed to awaken as 1t from q
dream, appearing entirely ignorant OF
what he had done. He apOlogized to
the New Yorker for his conduct, and
they went North together on the tram
