a CHINESE PICNIC,-"I wish there would
never be another Chinese Sunday school
picnio,n said woman Of considerable prom
ineDce in one of the Epi. oopal churches yes
terday "It Is ridiculous that the women
act as they do over the Cinnamon, and dis
like to have anything happen to direct the
attention OF the newspapers to their doings.
Many of the teachers seem to be perfectly
deit. Last fall o married woman of fifty
ysars called an old Chinsmsn out in the
church vestibule to kiss him before he re-
turned to China z little before that saw
her call him aside one Sunday and made
him bite peach she was eating. ut will
taste go much eweeter after you, Wah Sing,"
she said to bim. There is constant row
in the Sunday school about Ii 81 Yung, q
young Chnaman with q round, innocent
face. He is the dude and favorite. don't
know how many women in the church are
by the ears on account of him so they won't
speak to each other. They all wish to teach
him. and of course there is only one at q
tiGe who can get the privilege. Most OF the
teachers are jealous of this one, and hence
the trouble. Not long ago Chinese pupil
had wife come over from China. His
teacher begged him to let his bride pass a
few days at her house. The Chinaman con-
sented reluctantly, on the condition that no
men should be allowed to see her. So the
teacher drove to bis laundry. took the
Chinese woman home with her, and gave
her an elaborate afternoon reception. Nat
uraily, oil this attention makes the China-
men rather exscting. They refuse to be
taught in GLASSES. Each must have his own
teacher. Ifanother Chinaman is placed un-
der his teacher he turns his back on him,
and both of them sit as still and stubborn as
mules until they are separated. The whole
thing is ridiculous. IN. Y. Sun.

Drank Punch and Flirted.

Judge McKim, of the Probate Court Of
Boston, has en- interesiiag case in hand
The participants in it are Mrs Kate b. An
drews snd her husband, Charles Andrews,
son Of ono of the wealthy proprietors of the
Boston Herald Mrs. Andrews is pretty
b unette of about % and daughter Of Med
,al Director Jackson, of the navy. Her de-
sire is separate support from her husband.
She sage that she was married three years
age, when ber husband was 19 years old.
Then his father gave him house on Com
monweath avenue, completely furnished,
aod 100000 Tc-1ay the money i5 gope
and her husband is $34 600 in debt. Mrs.
Andrews testified that her husband was ex-
travagantly jealous; that he resented any
attentions paid her oy gentlemen, and that
he Was ia the habit af getting intoxicated
and making himself decidedly disagreeable
aoout the house; that at such times he had
often threatened to shoot her and that she
was afraid of Ter life. She stood it as long
as she could and then separated from him.
Mr. Andrews acknowledged he did drink
some, but eaid that bis wife drank
too; that he and she used to play
clibbage together with brandy or rum
punch on table beside tham Gnc that his
Wll6 lCOh u urlDh US OitSN SS uG UsC hS
denied that he had threatened to shoot her,
but said that ne had goad reason to do go.
Ee testified shat his wife wes addicted 10
flirting, and that three daye after their mai
riage, while on & train, she picked up
young man, to whom she wrote notes while
her husha1d waa Ia the smoking compsrt-
ment, aud from whom shs sfserTard re-
ceived letters, and chat while they were
abroad she received letters from G. chance
msie acquaintance. Lawyer Peabody, who
appeared for Andrews, said that 1t was
case of TOO much mother iG-law, father-in-
law end sister-in-law that soon after the
marriage they all came to live with the Au-
drews, and sitter they succeeded In getting
the house conveyed to the wife they want
ed tho husband to get out. Andrews said
that his wife was costing him over $40, 900
year, and that ever after she separated from
him she went 10 the milliner's and ordered
S125 worth of hats, sondlng the bill to him.
There was evidence, too, that Andrews,
"when fush,n allowed his wife 500 week,
and that the S200.O 600 went for society and
bad business ventures" The case is rath-
e. difficult one TOR the Court, both parties
being apparently in fault, and it Is the gen
eral impression that the Judge will leave
them To kiss aud make up.
