Report OF a IAsput-Miss AE les Gotta
wad, youngest daughter of Mr.. Hez COL
.awad, the well-xnown manufacturer OF
air-ship sundries, had her c~omi-.g-out par-t
.y at her fathers home last evening,
considerable party OF young people was
| present, but did not include the represent
atives OF the ultra fashionable younger
set, for the reason that the Gottawads DO
aot belong to that set. They were all
well-behaved young persons, however,
and conducted themselves Throughout the
evening with great propriety-
Miss Gottawad wore the INVENTION
simple white frock with which debutantes
garb themselves when they have their
! c~oming-out party. She Is not at all a
pretty girl, being decidedly rgulaf and
| somewhat awkward, like hes elder sisters.
There Is. besides, q noticeable redneSs
about tho debutante Miss GoltaWads
nose, due, probably, to lack OF exercise
and to too great Indulgence in sweetmeats.

the freelsles on her nose were very much
In eVidenee under the strong .asht in which
she stood while receiving her guests. Miss
Gottawad Is said, however, despite her
obvious plaiRfess, to be cutie an am1able
girl. She has ne accomplishments worth
mentioning.
The decorations OF the Gctt.wad house.
for the occasion were pleasing in spots,
though d~ecfaedly garish as a whole. An
expensive orchestra rendered indifferent
music throughout the evening. NOBODY
has the slightest anticipation that the
youngest of the Misses Gottawad Will re
the belle of the season.
Report of a ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS. &. Ii
Skinskin, the wife Of the furrier, yester-
day disgraced herself and her family and
everybody connected with her by horse
whipping q young clerk employed in her
husbands store, on q public thoroughfare.
She rounded the young man up in a door
way on High street, and, drawing a raw
hide whip from the folds of her cloak, laid
it upon her victims countenance with the
greatest brutality. When she was ar
rested and taken to No. l police station
she claimed that the young man had made
goo-goo eyes at her. This is not believed
by anybody who is acquainted with the
young man. He Is known to hundreds of
persons in this city as a thoroughly self,
respecting young fellow. the sole support
of his widowed mother and three young

goody class, but he Is just too square a
man to be guilty of any such f~ooHshness
as that imputed to him by the woman who
horsewhipped him. He is even believed
in by Mr.. Skinskin, the woman's husband,
and he will remain in Mr.. Skinskin's en-
ploy, with the guarantee thai he shall not
be bothered by Mrs. Sktnskin in the flu
ture. 1t is understood that Mrs. Skinskin
is to be Immediately examined by a com
mission in lunacy. We do not print her
portrait in the paper because we have
ceased printing the portraits of people
of that kind in this paper.
Report of a Suicide-The body of a
young woman was removed from the river
at the foot Of POS street, by the harbor
police yesterday afternoon. Pinned to her
dress was a note stating that she pur-
posed committing suicide, signed Ethel s..
G~ivemearest. The young woman was
about "a years of age. She was not at all
beautiful, but was, iii fact, extremely
homely. Her fingers were not covered
, with magnificent diamonds. She wore no
rings at all. Her clothing was of the
most inexpensive material. There is no
mystery whatever connected with the
case, nor have the police authorities the
slightest idea that the young woman was
the victim of foul play. 1t is deemed pos
. tive, from her appearance, that she did
= not belong to some distinguished family
a of the city. The young woman had sim

ed into the river, that is all. The case
is wholly lacking in any element OF fea-
ture upon which bank headlines could be
built up. 1t is expected that her people
will identify her and claim the body some
tine today The names of the Givemar-
sst family appear in the city directory,
but no reporter was sent to their home
By this newspaper, because the case was
not deemed of sufficient Importance.
Report of a Tidal Waye-A tidal wav<
swept the entire Atlantic coast yesterday
afternoon from Key West to Portland
hfe. 1t was not the largest tidal wave
ever known on this coast, by any manner
Of means. There have been plenty O.
bigger tidal waves on the Atlantic coas'
within the memory of living men. Con.
Siderable damage was done by the wave
however, but we do not print the danag,
figures that nave been t~elegraphed to thi:
office, because We believe the figures tt
BE grossly exaggerated.
