honor Aggie Sylvia. the leading light
OF the Tenderloin; Evelyn, the heroine
of more intrigues than falls to the lot
of many women. and Flossie, the queen
of Chinatown. each claims II. Where
Aggie comes from she refuses to say
and nobody else knows. but a few
years age she dropped into the very
heart of Tenderloin life. and since
then she has been it's central figure.
She had money tIhen-a matter of $780,
000-which She spent with a hand
which gave no heed to the day when
the money was needed. The detectives
estimate that she has been arrested
100 times and in almost every instance
1t has been for intoxication, although
on one occasion she tried to stab po-
liceman with a hatpin, and on another
snatched a diamond from a mans
cravat while asking him the time.
Living in the reeking atmosphere of
opium scented Mott street is Flossie,
its queen. The police of the Elizabeth
street station know Flossie as we'll as
she knows herself. If not better. for
when she is taken into the station she
is generally in a condition of stupe-
faction brought on by filling herself
with the narcotic and then roaming at
random about Pell. Mott and Doyers
streets, engaging in battles with her
Chinese companions. making the night
hideous with her screams. until Police

drifted into the dives along Sixth ave-
nue.. She disappeared and was not
heard of again until a murder brought
her into prominence. The woman
drifted from the Tenderloin to Bleeck-
