ROUGH ON ''CH0LLY."
Mr.. Bates's Pretty Friend Must
Give Up Her Cosy Flat.
The Other Tenants Got to Talking
About His Visits.
Mrs. Park Says 1t Is Not Eviction,
bat Her Lease Is Up.

"Cholly" Bates is having more trouble
to-day.
A heartless real estate agent wont let
a very pretty young woman who has
supplanted all others in the affections of
portly "Cholly," live in the swell fiat at
5West Sixty-fifth street.
This, after "Cholly" though everything
was all right and that he had succeeded
in finding coy quarters for his lady love.
About six weeks ago the .otber occu-
pants of the house noted the advent on
the second floor, west, of another ten
ant. The newcomer was a young wo-
mon about twenty-five years old, who
had lots of pretty clothes to set off her
brunette beauty and two colored serv-
ants to look after her household ar
rangements. Everything was as quiet
and nice as could be desired for several
days after the new tenants arrival.
One afternoon stylish trap drove up
to the door and very fat, little man
who wore a pink collar atop of blue
shirt. with white cuffss, besides other
clothes of ultra-fashioaable cut alighted
and entered the vestibule of the fiat.
He pushed the electric button just
over the little brass plate with u. =.
Park" stamped on it. The brass plate
had made Its appearance about the
same time the new second floor tenant
moved in.
When the door-latch slipped back the
fat little man dashed up stairs two steps
at time and was met on the first land
ing oy the pretty brunette woman.
"How's things, Bessie?' said he.
1t so happened that there lives in the
house a young man who goes about
In time to see the meeting.
Fatty Bates, as I'm a sinner" said
he, under his breath.
Next day whispers were circulated
about the house concerning the beauti-
full Mrs. Park" and Cholly Bates.
OF course. there was talk of moving
out and complaining to the landlord,
and all that, but nobody did either.
Real Estate Agent Waterlow, of Six
| ty-sixth street and the Boulevard, told
the rest of the story to an Evening
World reporter to-day.
He said that the apartments occupied
by Mrs. Park had been leased by James
". O'Brien, a wealthy plumber Of 65l
Sixth avenue.
Mr.. o'Brien moved out the last Of
August, although his lease had two
more months TO run; The agent ac-
Three weeks ago stylishy-gowned
young woman came into his office and
asked why he had rented her, fiat to
ticr. That was the first the agent
knew that anybody was living in Mr..
ORrien's fiat.
He, told the young woman SO, and ana
prospective tenants either: He said he
ilin't like the way OBrien had acted
anyway. No, he didn't care If Mrs
Park could give the best references
She must find otner quarters. But tive
\ belding black eyes and a lovely face
.ometlmes make people change theiI
mat night the agent went to the
American Theatre to see Jim Corbett
act Right in front of the agent sat
Mrs. Park Her escort was no other
han Cholly Bates. That settled 1t with
the agent He hadn't known Cholly
was in it until then.
So the elict went forth, and to-day OF
tomorrow the movers Will cart all OF
Mrs Parks pretty furniture TO apothet
fat on West Sixty-ninth street.
An Evening World reporter VINO
called on Mrs. Park to-day was ushered
INTO the cozy dining room, the only one
In order
Lots of photographs of coaches and
fours with "Cholly" on the box were
suck no all around.
Mrs. Park was freeZingly conventiOna
a. first but melted sufficiently TO say
that there was no truth in the report
the noise in her fiat during Mr.. Bates
calls. -,
Her lease had expired, that was all
and she was going to move.
So the tenants of No. Will no Longer
gaze with envy upon the very swaggei
trap and the prancing bays with white
harness, which came every afternoon u
take Mrs. Park out driving.
Mrs. Park used to live with Mrs. Allc,
street before she met "Cholly.' TIT
iiveryman next door but one used L
know her as Bessie then, and she drov'
great deal, he says.
