TOM RI JON ARRESTED.

she is Charged With Being a Nuisance
BY Her Landlord.
Tom Ri Jon or Mrs. S. D. Elliott. well
known in New York as a perfume peddler
and who wears mans clothes for con-
venience, was in Judge McGrath's Sec
ond District Court yesterday morning on
complaint of Alexander Wiley of No. 80
Atlantic street. Wiley claims that Mr=.
Elliott, as O tenant, will not comply with
his wishes. She lives on one floor at No.
81 Atlantic avenue, and in consequences OF
this no one will reut the rest of the place.
as she was q nuisance and 'hoodoeed"
the premises, He thinks she is too gay.
He requested her to move out, telling her
that she is too noisy, but b objected to
do so.
He then served dispossess papers against
her, in the name OF Tom Ri JON. But
when the case came before Judge McGrath
yesterday morning, the Judge tailed
to recognize the papers. as he said that
Tom Ri Jon was Mrs. Elliott's assumed,
and not her real name. So Wiley will
draw up new papers, using the name OF
Mrs. s. d. Elliott.
The latter, in conversation with a NEWS
reporter. said that she wears the costume
of a man because she frequently has to go
into barrooms and such places to sell
perfumery. Then she is licensed to carry
a cane also, and she needs the stick ia
her travels, She was attired in a frock
coat and creased pantaloons. A felt hat
of recsnt style vas worn on her head,
and her hair is short. She also wore a
cape coat and silver headed cane.

ENGLISH CHILD MARRIAGES.

Her Record in Point of Age Equals That
of Eastern Countries.
England can furnish instances of child
marriages, not perhaps to any great ex-
tent. but as young as any to be found in
Eastern countries, where such marriages
are almost of daily occurrence. The
youngest English bride on re- cord is, be-
You'd all doubt.a daughter of Sir William
Brereton, who, in che sixteenth century,
was united in the bonds of holy matri-
mony, when only two years of age, TO a
bridegroom who was only her senior by
one year. In this case the children were
carried into church, and their elders
spoke for them. Subsequently, when the
pair reached years of maturity, they rRti-
fed the strange tie. In phis instance the
object was to carry out a desire to unite
property.
In 1862 Randle Moors was married at
age of s years to a bride two years his
senior; aud about the same time Emma
Talbot, 6 years of age, had a 5-year-old
husband provided for her In the person of
Gilbert Gerard. In this case the BRIDE
groom's uncle held him up and spoke the
marriage words for him, while the bride
answered for herself. a. she had been
taught.
In 1852 William Chatterton, who was
Bishop of Chester and Lincoln successive
perform the marriage ceremony uniting
his Q year-old daughter Joan with Rich
ard Brooke, an 11-year-old ssman.' This
was, by consent of the COM
tracing parties, ratified four years later.
The Chester Church records contain
lengthy documents testifying TO this rati
fcation. In this Instance the marriage
