NOTHING FLAT HERE.
The Alice Apartment House
Trouble Causes Wild
Scenes in Court.
A PUNCH In THE NOSE.
Several Regulations Assailed-
Mrs. Pierrez's Queer
Visitants.

Peace now reigns in Fred Walbaum's
Alice Flats, Hoboken. Mrs. Pierrez,
who the tenants say is ''holy terror"
has moved away.
Agent Heyman, some days ago, brought
action before Justice of the Peace Beck
to have Mrs. Pierrez vacate the premises,
but on account Of defect in the papers
the case was dismissed. A new COM
plant was drawn up and a summons is'
sued, and the trial took place this morn
ing.
Wednesday last Mrs. Pierrez vacated
the premises, and in honor of the event
the other tenants decorated the house
with flags and had a nice little tama
chocolate supper.
LOVE ONE ANOTHER.
In court this morning Mrs. Pierrez was
represented by Lawyer Weller, while
Real Estate Agent Heyman was repre-
sented by Lawyer de Leonard. These
two lawyers love one another with
burning hatred. The ball opened Dy
Lawyer Weller referring to the dis
crepHncies and inconsistencies OF the
present complaint aud the defective Que
Agent Heyman. He said the conflicting
stat alements showed Mr.. Heyman to be
periurer, reckless swearer, and
one who ought to be in Jail.
Then Lawyer de Leonard got in
some fine work. He said it was with i'll
woods of New Jersey, (Mr. WelIer) shou d
pursue such adisreputable course as TO be-
rate people far above him. In doing this
he was pursuing a suicidal course, and a5
all events he never would amount to a
row of pins.
Weller-"I was never arrested for steal
ing"
De Leonard-"Perhaps you haven't
been found ont"
Weller-"You dirty cur, go and look at
the records of the Court on the HILL
You have been found out"
De Leonard. 1.-THE simple fact, your
Honor, is that he is making an ass of him.
self in saying Heyman ought to be ar-
rested for perjury. say the case is all
right"
Weller-:'I confined myself in opening
to the case, as 1 thought it beneath my
dignity TO make reference to him, who
has been prisoner"
Justice of the Peace Beck raped for
order, and told both lawyers to conffne
themselves to the case. Weller wanted
the case dismissed. but this Beck refused,
Weller then said that he would not have
anything TO 90 WIN 1T, ana ne WOulu
punish anybody who dare interfere with
his client.
BLOOD ON THE MOON.
During this time pandemonium reigned
in the stuffy little office. The women
were here and there talking and denounc-
ing Weller. Weller called TO Mrs. PIER
rez to come out with him. He was near
the door. when Albert Schilling, book
keeper for Heyman, ran over
to Weller and shaking his
finger in Weller's face called him =
liar repeatedly. Weller hauled off with
his right and let Schiller have it in the
nose. They clinched, but before much
damage was done they were separated.
Weller and Mrs. Pierrez then left the
court room.
Beck then offered to find Judgment for
the plaintiff, but de Leonard insisted on
introducing some witnesses. Mrs. Adlars
tenant in the house, testified that she
knew Mrs. Pierrez as Robert K. Mercer's
housekeeper. She said Mrs. Pierrez had
shametully abused her and called her vile
manner. She said females attired in male
attire ran up and down the stairs from
Mrs. Pierrez's apartments. Agent Hey
man testified as to the annoyance created
Justice Beck then granted an execus
ton.
Mrs. Pierrez has moved. but still holds
the keys. II she doesn't turn them over
she will be arrested for petty larceny.
The tenants will hold grand iolli6caF
tion in few days.
