The Eccentric Florida Boniface Gives
Reporters Some Good Stories.


Ernest Pietzsch, proprietor Of the St.
Nicholas hotel at West Brighton, Coney
Island, and the Plaza hotel at St. Angus
tine, Fla, who created such a sensation a
few weeks ago by throwing money TO per-
formers on the stage at Vacca's West End
Casino, was dispossessed yesterday, and
is now holding court in what was for
merly known as Coleman's Metropolitan
Concert Hall, corner Maiden lane and
Sea Beach walk.
After his brother had had him arrested
that his sanity might be inquired into,
and after he had been allowed to 20 free
as possessing an untainted mind, he pro
ceeded to enjoy himself He bought
menagerie and two performing bears He
had an orange wood cane, on which were
carvings of a snake, an alligator, a frog
and a little negro. This he had set with
diamonds and carried about with him.
He appeared on the stage and in front of
his place with the bears, and would har-
angue the crowds about his life and what
he intended TO do for Coney Island.
Pietzsch had surrounded himself with
lot Of third-rate performers and walters
who bled men without mercy On Mon
day he was unable to pay salaries. He
paid off with checks, good for food and
drinks al the bar. The walters opened
IL
The gas company had a bill against
Pietzsch for sos. He did not pay it, and
they took his meters out. He used lamps
and announced that he would lecture
every hour on his life and the iniquitous
habits of gas companies. On Wednesday
he put on q high hat, and with his house
keeper on his arm, and followed by o
rabble carrying flags and torches, he went
to the gas works and gave a screnade
10 cd IN nd
two hours.
Yesterday William Schoppe of the
banking firm of Schoppe 4 Scheitt, in
Brooklyn K. D., appeared before Justice
Neu, in the city hall civil court at Graves
end, and secured a dispossess warrant. on
the ground that Pietzsch owed them
81 400 for rent. The firm owns the ST
Nicholas hotel property and the Amphion.
He had changed the name of all the prop
erty TO Pietzsch's Arcade. Constable
Robert NJ. Noble went to Coney Island at
noon and ordered every one out of the
place, which he closed and locked
PietZsch called his help and sat them
down about ables in the Metropolitan.
For dinner he gave each one a bar of
sugar popcorn, and for supper he fed
them on soup and hard tack, corned
beef and ham sandwiches He dined with
them, but he had broiled chicken All he
has to show for his many years of hard
work in Coney Island are the organ and a
few tables and chairs. A notice posted
on the hotel announces a chattel mort
gage sale of the stock and fixtures in the
hotel to take place on July IS.
Piet2schs sister-in-law was present at
yesterdays repast. She did not appear
to be affected, but said that it was "a pity
that he was not kept in lunatic asylum
for a time. He appeared to be cheerful,
and said he would go to Florida and make
another fortune Two years ago he was
estimated as worth 100000, but at pres
ent he has nothing. 1t is probable that
his relatives will take steps to have him
sent to same institution.

which ! was chaplain to seamen for the

that came into port with few eXceptionsl
summer and winter. My experience has
taught me that it is very unwise and IN
safe for crews to sleep on board their YES
sells during the months OF June. July,
August and September, and it is wicked
and cruel to compel them to do so. A
poor sailors life is as much to him as TO
us, and his health while liv-
ing is TO him of the utmost
Importance. He should be protected
by law from the rapacity Of
shipowners who think to save a little
money by not paying the expense Of bed
on shore. 1t is poor economy at best, as
hospital expenses are more than a simple
few nights lodgings on shore.
! could give you scores of instances Of
sickness and death resulting from sleep
ing on board. Capt. Pugsley Of the bark
Empress would have had TO abandon his
vessel had he not procured a crew from
passing ship, all his growing being down
and unable 10 work. Yellow fever does
not originate IN this port, but bilious or

The Bicycle on SUNDAYS.
From the Washington Star.

The bicycle has once more made its ap.
pearance as a factor in church problems.
This time it is at Hollidaysburg, Pa,
where a number Of pastors have de-
nounced riding on the Sabbath as desc
Grafton On the other hand, the pastor
of the local Baptist church upholds it and
considers that it is better TO ride a wheel
to churl h than to drive a horse. He has
invited all wheelmen TO attend his church
and promises the services of an officer to
look after their bicycles while they are
inside. A horse. he contends, may get
tired and need a rest one day in seven,
but a bicycle Is always in condition to go
as far as its rider is able to send it. His
reasoning is all right and it will be inter-
esting TO learn whether his attitude will
result in an increase Of interest in mat
ters spiritual among the athletic young
people of his town.
