CROWD CHASES A KISSER.
Young Married Woman Boldly Seized
on a Crowded Street.
Washington Post.

Yesterday afternoon between 4 and 5
O'Clock the hucksters and by-standers who
happened to be gathered near the P-street
market were startled and shocked to see
young and pretty woman. who was walking
ieisurely along the street. suddenly seized
from behind by man. Their amaZement
knew no bounds when the bold man placed
his arms about the trim waist of the young
woman and proceeded to imprint several re-
sounding kisses upon her rosy cheeks. the
young woman struggled for an instant
then screamed and the kisser disappeared
hurriedly down nearby alley, leaving his
victim disconnected and nonplussed stand
ing where she was attacked
When the crowd of people witnessing the
affair had recovered their senses several
rushed to the rescue of the young woman,
while others set out in pursuit of the kisser;
Finally the culprit was discovered and
amid the maledictions that came, thick and
fast upon him he asserted in loud tones
that he was the young woman's brother,
who had come home after a long absence
and thought to play a little joke on his
pretty sister, who was recently married.
The affair was finally cleared up, and after
a slight reproach by the sister the pair
walked up the street, chatting merrily and
telling what had transpired since Jacks de-
parture from the city.

GENERAL ORDWAY ILL.
His Daughter, Bettina Girard, the Ac-
tress, Released from the Hospital.

NEW YORK, Nov. 1S.-Bettina Gtrard
the actress, who has been in Bellevue Hos
pital for some time, was discharged tonight
from that institution. 1t is believed that
she was taken to the residence of DR.. Wylie
on West Forty-third street.
In an interview with reporter to-day
Miss Girard said: II am not going to Wash
ington with my parents. When 1 am able
will go with my husband to a little home
of our own"
General Ordway, Miss Girard's father, is
in 1 critical condition at the Hoffman
House. DIR. Daniel p. Pease, who is at
tending the general, said to-day that he had
as yet been unable to make diagnosis of
the case that was entirely satisfactory.
General 0rdway," said DR.. Pease, has
some violent disorder of the digestive or
gans, but as to what it is am not yet pre-
pared to express an opinion. The shock of
learning the details of his daughters mis-
fortunes has, think, brought about a sud-
den crisis in his disease, the end of which
no one can foresee' None Of the members
of the Ordway family could be seen tonight,
but it is believed that Mrs. Ordway ar
ranged for the removal of her daughter
from Bellevue.
