CHESTNUT SHEET SCENE.
Crowds Follow Two Drunken Peopl
and Create Fxcitement.

A man and woman under the influence
of liquor attracted some attention gu
Chestnut street on Thursday night.
Chestnut street is very well supplied
with young people and an unusual occur
renee draws them as flies ara drawn,
They come in crowds almost as innumer-
able as the blades Of grass and are no
more distinguishable than sardiles in q
package. TO ascertain the urchin who
commits a mischievous act in this crowd
is impossible as at once sight of him is
lost 1t is more possible to ascertain
the bee from among swarm that hurts
you with its sting.
The dress worn by the woman in ques
ton was of a most fantastic appear anee.
and while one of her feet was bare the
other vas covered by sort Of stocking
into which something else besides the
foot had been stuffed About 300 chill
dren followed the pair, and while peb-
bles fell thick and heavy on one side the
war was kept up on the other by a
storm of words The man took his pun
ishment meekly, but now and then
would the woman turn ana dispense the
mob like chat before a whiriwind.
This occasional charge only added to
the ludicrousness OF the scene Heads
were thrust from the doors and windows;
the boys hallowed, and the woman swore.
and altogether the place looked more
like Bedlam than one Of the quiet spots
Of Wilmington. During a sharp inter
change between the combatants, the man
escaped leaving the woman to the crowd.
Then as if a sense of shame at attacking
a single woman seized the boys, they ali
dropped off and she was allowed to 90 her
way, which she did, giving vent to vol
ume of oaths, and breathing forth dire
threats, towards the urchins who had
dared to interrupt her on her way.
