The Bpectaele of a negreas and a China- iHnan in legal dispute waa presented yes terday at the Tombs Court. Ching ITee is « round-faced, Jolly Mongolian wbo runs a laundry at Ho. 18 Mott street, where he Is assisted In bli work by two helpers. He appeared yeeterdfty before Jtullct White In answer to a summons obtained by8«lty Stephens, a good-looking, plnmp but black-as-coal negreas, who said abe Jived at Mott and 8prlng streets. On one side of the witness stend stood Sally, shy, modest and banging her crinkly bead, while she rolled her immense white eyes at the smiling Chinaman, who atood upon ' the opposite side of the stand with both his hands eoneeaded in the ample width of htfftlk blouse sleeve." “Well. Minor Mri. Stephens,” began Jnatlce White, when he was Interrupted by: “Min, air, If you please: I am Miss Stephens," The latter part of the sen tence she addressed to tbo Chinaman, who w also lowed her f nil in the eyes, and be * smacked bit Ups with comical gusto. “Just so: what is the charge yon make against this Chlnamanf" she was ask- " Wby.be insulted me, Judge," she roll ed out In round, fall and deep oontralto tones, as shs leaned her two elbows upon the magistrate's desk and ogled as If the were trying to- mash that functionary. The magistrate was mailed In proof, how ever, and resisting the fascination, turned to too Celestial. “Co yon understand English f" he ask ed. resumed bis peaceful smile. “Tellns how he Insulted you?” the ace of spades was asked. She looked ooyly over her ahonlier at Ching Hee, smiling, as she said: "Ah you rascal 1" Then to the Bench. “Judge, I went to get the wash at the laundry, when this man became very fa- mhlar. He said very fine day: how do: do likle me and all kinds of stuff like that ye know. Well, as l was going to tell you Here she tamed again with a smile up on the Chinaman. ' Hajrat his hand nn der ray chin like that.” and she illustrat ed the action by tickdnf’John Chinaman under the chin, which made him double up with glee to the Intense delight of the court audience. The megl.irate's rnddy face grew still more rnddy, and he choked down a gnl- faw. After the Chinaman bad regained his equilibrium. Sally continued her com plaint: “Ha handed me the clothes and polled them back from me. I took hold of them and be palled and I pulled. Another Chi naman sat la a corner laughing at Us, while a third Chinaman atood In the door way In the rear, making fun of us." ‘‘He had no Intention of insulting you, bad hef" “Ignessnot: He waa malting me. But “Maybe he wants to marry yonf" Sally got np from her laay position and straight ening herself np to her fall height, she re plied: “I wouldn't merry e Chinamen, any way." “He Is <1 s discharged," said the magistral. John took his hands out of his sleeves and smilingly left the court room. Sally look ed disappointed. TRYING THE NEW ANESTHETIC. A Subtile Substance that Affeota Only one Sat at Nerves. / Philadelphia Press. Some remarkable experiments have been made during the past few days by Philadelphia surgeons with the new anes thetic, hydrochlorate of cocaine, that has caused such a sensation among physi cians. The result of tho nse of the drag, It is said, is in its faTor, and It is consid ered superior to chloroform or ether in moat operations on the eye. Dr. CoHer, of Vienna, discovered its value some time last fall, bat the first sample did not come to this country until a few weeks ago, and tfien only to the amount of about eight grains. The cooalne was soon cor- _ neredandtho quoted price was $6000 a pound. There is none left now. Within a year, when there are facilities for its manufacture, it is expected that it will sell for about fifty cents a grain. It Is used in a 2 per cent solution, and one grain is sufficient for a good many operations. The plant from which the anesthetic, or more properly speaking, the analgesiac, V is made is grown in South America. Bo- * Uniats call it the Coco erythroxjrlnm. It is a small shrub that has no connection, as Its name might suggest, with the cocoa- nnt or any tree of that species. It !> much-used by native South Americans as a nerve stimnlant When the inhabitants of the parts where it grows wish to work incessantly they chew the leaves of the shrub, and while the effects last, they are not b .them! with any feelings of hunger or thirst. As administered medicine: it is dissolved in a mixture of hydrochloric ac id and an alkali, that being the form mod favorable for its nse. The effect ol the drag on the eye Is to produce insensibility to pain. A drop is put on the eye-ball, and within a short time the surgeon is able to perform, with out hurting the patient, what would nth erwise be the most agonising operation. The patient, howerer, does not lose the sense of touch in the eye. He can feci the Angara and the instruments of the physicians, bnt there ie no pain whatever. The insensibility to suffering and the sen sibility to touch in the same part la ex plained by the fact that, in the human system, the nerves which carry the pain to the bra'ii are distinct from those which transmit the sensation of touch. The cocaine benumbs the former, while its ef fect on the latter la only slightly peroepti ble. The new drug will be of assisUnce to oculists in more directions. Since Ita in troduction into America another nse has been found for It Frequently in diagnos ing affections of theeyeltls necessary to apply some lotion that will enlarge the pnpil to that It can be more easily exam ined. The drags previously In nse for this purpose had the disadvantage that when once applied the expansion of the pnpil would continue tor a week, censing great inconvenience to the patient. The enlargenllpt obliterates the appreciation of distance. When cocaine la applied, hosrerer, it is laid that the expansion on ly lasts a faw honre. Before operating with its assistance, Dr. Sbakspeare. the ophthalmic snrgeon to the Philadelphia Hospital, tried Its ef fects on himsel), on the resident physician In charge of the eye wards, on one of the surgeons and on a none. The results were good. After that yarions operations were gono through without giving pain to the patients. In one ease the pupil of the eye waa grasped and the eye speculum , was introduced without any exclamation \ from the person undergoing the opera- r tion. In another the patient could not were made. The woman did is wince. The severance of the iris, how ever, ceased a lively pain. Dr. Shakespeare saya that the cocaine will be invaluable in cases of operations for strabismus, where It is an advantage for the patient to be conscious. With its use the eye can be properly adjusted, the patient having bis sight experimented vritn by tho use of lenses and reading mat ter until it has been fixed to the correct degree. It will be useful, too, he says, to . give C"mfort to persons suilering pain | from the exposure or irritation ol tho nerves oi tho eye, and preliminary to the application of caustic or other pain ful drogn Dr. It. J. Levis has alaa experimented with the cocaine optllftlmlc and other coses. It produced local anaesthesia in several different lilacea. When applied prior to the brushing of ulcers In the mouth and throat with nitric acid, it be numbed the parr, so that no pain was fell. It also has the property ot removing j™- porarily the senses oi taste and smell. To do ibis it is applied to the tongue and In title ol the mouth and the upper part of the nose. Short operations have been painlessly performed on the fingers after they hare been Immersed for e short time In the solution. SULLIVAN AS COOD AS EVER. ’rsparlns (or Hall a Dotan Fights. Alter Which he Will Retire. N. Y. Sun. John L. Sullivan took a drive through Central Park yesterday, and went a ways np the road. On his return to Monloo Villa he said he never felt in better oondl- tion in bit Ilf a. “What doyou thlukof Frof. Laflin T“ be was asked. “He may be a good enough iuao," Sul livan answered, “bnt kept fighting in a very peculiar etyie. The people abouted that I was licked. I defy anybody to stand upend let a mao weighing 208 pounds hang, aronnd his neck the way Laflin did me." “What are you going to do now?” “1 am going to stay here and train for my contest with Alf Greenfield, which is to take place at Madison Square Garden on next Monday nighL After that f ahall go home to Boston, and will begin to train for my fight with Faddy Ryan, which will take place on Janaary 19,1885. I am sick and tired of this boxing business, and will then retire. But just to show people that I am not afraid I will fight Dominick McCafirey for sny amount he can name within a few hours notice pro viding the mill comes off privately, with only a limited number of spectators.” “It is reported that you were sick after your set to with Laffinf” “Well, I was in a manner, and I’ll tell S on how that came about. Yon are aware ist a good deal oi emoklug waa golDg on in the Garden, and that combined with the exertion and excitement caused me to feel weak. My seconds gave me a dose ol brandy, and my system being nnnsed to it, rejected It. That's all there Is about that story." Hnlliran says that Laflin bit the thumb of hia boxing glove, and that he won the light in the first round, because Laflin was thirty-eight seoonds on the ground, when the rules only allowed ten seconds, and that Edwards and Chambers lifted Laflin up. Sutliyan insists that he la as good a man aa he was two years ago. It was said at Monlco Villa last night that the billy goat which 8allivan had ex ercised with had been killed by Mr. Singer, the gardner, who wae its original owner. Mr. Sinter raid that he found Inside of the goat Sul livan's robber ball, Pataey Shephard's watch key, numerous newspapers, some election returns, and a part ol ‘IShorty” McCabe's fighting record. INEBRIATES RESPONSIBLE. The Tranoe State of Drunkenness and Ita Phenomena. Dr. T. D. Crotbcrs describes, in the De cember Popular Science Monthly, a semi conscious, trance-I'.ke state, which some- times follows hard drinking. A person In this condition may carry on his regular business, or may perform unusual acts or even crimes, none of which will be re membered when he recovers full con sciousness. In regard to the legal treat ment of drunkards, Dr. Crothere saye: 1. “Inebriety in all oases must be regard ed as a disease, and the patient lorced to use the means for recovery. Like the vic tim of infectious disease, his personal re sponsibility is increased, and tbo commu nlty with him are bound to Insist on the treatment as a necessity, 2. "Inebriety must be recognised as a condition oi legal responsibility to a certain extent, depending on the circumstances of each individual oaee. . .1) 8. “All unusual nets or crimes commit ted by inebriates, either in a state of par tial stupor or alleged amnesia (or loss of memory) which comes under legal recogni tion, should receive thorough study by competent physicians, berore the legal re sponsibility can be determii ed. 4. "When the trance state is established, beyond doubt the person is both physio logically aud legally irresponsible for hia acts during this period. But each c*»e should always be determined from the facts of its individual history. “In the llgh't ot science the present le gal treatment of inebriety is bnt little else than barbarism. The object of the law in punishment benefits no one and makes the patient more incurable, destroying ail possibility of recovery and reform to health again. Inebriety in any form may be no excuse for crime In a legal cense, but It is slill less an excuse for pun ishment, which destroys the viciim and makes him more help'ess and hopeless. A vast army of inebriates hovering along these border lands ot disease and crime, wbo are un known and unrecognised, except -at vicious and desperately wicked,' are a per petual menace to all progress and civlnia don, unless they can be reached and checked by rational, effective methods. A revolution of eentlment and practice is demanded, in which the inebriate and the conditions which developed his malady shall be understood; then tbe means for prevention, restoration aud recovery oan be a pplied along tbe line of nature’s laws." THE PLENARY COUNCIL. Prosrass ol th^Dellos ration s--asrmon ft on Revelation and the Churoh. Baltimore Bun. The sessions of the Plenary Council yes terday were tbe same as on the two pro ceding days, viz: A meeting of tbe bouse of bishops In tbe morning and meet- logs of the committees In tbe afternoon. The workot the council is progressing steadily, and the headway made thus far is just what it was expected to be, whioh goes to show that the oounoll will be through with Its labors by the time ealeu lated on, Hovember 30. The Rev. D. J O'Connell, D D., ot Richmond, on whom, in hia capacity of theological secretary to Archbishop Gibbons, apostolio delegate, devolved a great amount of the prelimi nary work of the council, and who la one of Its secretaries, waa quite sick yes terday, owing, no doubt, to the continued •train on him. There will be no session o! the council this morning, bat at 9 a. m. the pontifical masa ol requiem for deceas ed prelates will commence In the Cathe dral. There will be noprooeuicn before the mass and no solemn session after it, as was the caee last Sunday. Archbishop Alemany, of San Francisco, will ring the mass, and Coadjutor Archbishop Corri- rigan, of New York, will preach. After tbe eermon the turasl absolutions for the dead will be given by the four senior arch bishops present, vis., Archbishop Ale- many, Archbishop Kendrick, of SL Louis, Archbishop Williams, ot Boston, and Archbishop Lamp, of Santa Fe. There will be no services or sermon in either tbe Cathedral or SL Alphonaus Church this C 'a"”uio services in the Cathedral last evening Right Rev. R. QUmonr, bishop of Cleveland, preached on "The necessity ol revelation.’’ He arid: “In discussing the problems of the age there ate taro or three currents of thongbt tolerably well marked. Among ihese are a sharply defined attack npon authority, and a pretty welkacoepted determination to make man the beginning and end of himself. In the sixteenth oen- tury reason was made tbe judge o' faith. What it accepted, It held to be true; what it rejected, It held to be false. “The results of thought are not tbe pro ducts of a day. so when reason was made ita own master, and society was commit ted to its guidance, It required time, not only to aooept the new, but to get rid of tbe old. The united end uniform teach ing of the chnrcft for nixteen hundred years hud ho moulded and formed public thought that time alone co ill c-liamr;* or destroy ita work. But thought once ntir- te<l and fairly aaot'plod will in time work Its logical result*. The human mind in fairly logical, mid principles once accented are in time pushed to their legitimate concluMona.” Then at great length the Bishop discussed the drift of •‘modem lllongK” wS&b (it *aid MS far its basal thought, “Keaton ia supreme, and physical scicncs Is tbe sole test of tynth,” dwelling on whet he termed Its legitimate result*, the Communist and Nihilist, as the alvanctgaard of oar free thinkers, a gnostic j. rationalists, etc. Going on, he spoke of the increasing deganaratlou ot man, argaing that it la produced by a too great beliefla the things of thU earth, and not eDO Jgh belief in ana study of divine revelation and religious teachings. In conclusion he said: ‘The aky looks dark Indeed. Morality ia on the wane, and the standard ot truth aud jus ice steadily sinks. Oar public men are no longer enraen for their hon esty and ability, but for their- availibilitv. The unity of marriage ha« ended in di vorce ana polygamy. Our youth are Ir reverent, blaiphemy stalks the land and druokenneta and last are a ateuch in tho noatrllfl. Material progress h is replaced religion, tbe temporal ia preferred to the eternal, the body to the soul, man to God “In snob state ot tblnp.a It behooves ns not ouly to defend revelation, but to Inrlit npon its acceptanoe. It Is the here y of the day that man is not bound to aocept religion. It ia true man ia not bound to accept religion from man, and therefore, aa man rgalnat man, we can assert relig ions freedom; bnt as man against God, man is bound to aocept religion; nay, more than that, he is bound to accept pure and simple tbe religion God gives him. “We mast cease permitting sentiment to rule, teach religion and replace God In society. The state mast take from tbo church as the chnrcb takes from God- and both moat work for a common end. It Is folly to assert that the state can pros per without the church or aooiety exist without religion. God must rule, man must obey. Religion mast be accepted and revelation maintained.*' The Eev. Martin Marly, O. 8. B., Vicar- Apostolio of Dakota Territory, preached in German at. 8L Aiohonaa* last night. Hli subject was “The Church—Her Inde structibility and Infallibility.** He aaid that It waa hardly necessary to prove the church indestructible and infallible, for it day in the very nature of the case. God, the Almighty, instituted the church for man’s salvation, and no power can destroy or hinder what He or-. dained and created. Again, He bolds and E rotecta her, aud He has ordained her ex- itence and prosperity. The church is a soe'ety, but not one where mere numbers rule; it Is rather a kingdom, with Christ its invisible King, the visible head being Peter, and his sucoessor the hlshou of Rome. He can bid and forbid, and him we obey. And so, through its obedient to his decrees, the Catbolio Church has remained the same iu constitution from tha first to the nineteenth century. It has been the tohool of obedience for all time, and it ia only through her that spiritual power baa'been preserved for the good of mankind. In the present condition of the people there is no rational obedience, no respect for law. no desire for social order. Everybody rashes on, eapecia'ly in America, on the principle, “Help yourself," disregarding others and their rights; disregarding the laws, for even they can be transgressed with impunity. Money is the only power recognised; its possessor can do and dare all. He who has none has no freedom, no rights, no standing. He then deplored the decreas ing strength of the Conservative party in the German Reichstag, the party which upheld law and order and obedience to the authority instituted by Gid, and the increase of the Socialist party, the .party which would first roze everything to the ground and then build up a new society on entirely new princi ples. It is a bitter fight and none can foretell ita issue, but those who are not on the side of Christ, nor have learnt obe dience to the Word, will rash on to inevit able anarchy and chaos. Tlio world was in a liorri tie slate when Christ came to havo it. In many respects Europe and America aro ia as rotten a condition ns Greece and Rome were then. Can they be saved again? If so it will bo through this country. Here tho Catholic Church has wonderfully prospered. Divine power must nave up, but God. requires our per sonal aid. Let our lives show what our church teaches, and let those who ore still in error, and glory in their delusion, learn its doctrines from our words and deeds. PLANS OF THE INDEPENDENTS. They Hope to Attract tho Best Men In All Parties ana to Oet Control. Habtford, November 11.—The independ cut organization both in Massachusetts and Connecticut havo been making efforts since the election to find out what their strength was. 80 far the result has not been very satisfactory, and it is probable that the organizations will be obliged to content themselves with estimates. In Massachusetts they say that not less than 25,000 Republicans bolted, almost ali of them voting for Cleveland, »ome of them for St. John, and some not at all. Iu Con necticut the energetic and wealthy men who forsook business and saiunaged the In dependent canvass assert that they were supported by not less thin 5,000 voters cut clean ont ot the Republican party. These estimatel arc riot now made sim ply to gratify curiosity. Nor to tickle tho independent*, go far as giving the e'erto- ralvote of Massachusetts to Cleveland is concerned, ifwas not a success, though it U beyond quest on that but for the Con im cticut bol crs Rhine would have carried tire State. The independents of both States arc borne *hat inclined to think that greater achievements await them iu the futuro than tho single one of defeating Blaine, and they have been busy since (lection with correspondence with one another, as well as with the In- dependent of New York citv and Brook lyn. Though in the beginning the Inde pendents were oareful to assert that they wero Republicans and that it was bscause they were truer Republicans than those who ominated and supported Blaine that they opposed him, yet now, stimulated by their confidence that they beat Blaine, they are beginning to make arrangements to stay out of the party a little while In Massachusetts they have already de cided to stay organised until they again days, formally dedde to hold aloof as a live organization, at least until future de velopments In politics shall mako ■oms other action neceesary. It is the desire of both these New England organiza tions that those of New York and Brook lyn should do as they do. and already propositions are nnder consideration for a meeting of a small number of delegates from each of these protesting bands. At this meeting they will discuss the situation, exchange views, be mutually complimentary, and probably appoint an executive committee, to which the special concerns of the organization will be dele- idea has seized them that they are in all probability the little flame by which tbe great new party of reform, and in all probability revenae reform, is to be light- ed. Many of them have of late been heard to say that It waa after all a good thing that Mr. Blaine was nominated, because it gave the opportunity to take a step that thef srould have hesitated, probably re fused, to take had any other Republican received the honor.. The Independents seem to have learned among other lessons in this canvass what the old politicians coaid have tanght them, that when a man bolts his party he is pretty apt to stay bolted. Od*o( the moat ro.rc.llo and able ot - Tn tha Independent bolter. In this State said ~“WeliaT« com. to believe that thlz U leap into the Democratic party. Toey can f not overemur the feelings they once en ter tai 'ed so strongly, that tbe success of I the Democratic party means na.ional j ruin. When tiiey dud that buc’j is not tbe ! case they will smile at their fours and he j ready to quit the party, if they can find a good party to go to. There is much more 1 apathy in the Republican party than we had auy idea of. “On the other hand, the election of Vfr. Cleveland will be sore to make a rampas in tbe Democratic party after awhile, and nqbody realizes that any better than Mr. Cleveland himself. That is pre cisely whet tbe Independents want. We want to drive on? of the Demo cratic party all those base elements which have alone prevented It from coming into power long before this. Then when Mr. Gfevelondls antagonized and attacked by a portion of bis party, tbe Independents wifi lift their hands, strengthened by large accessions from tbe Republican party, and « ve bim tbe support that be will need. f e shall then grow, become strong, and fonr years from now certainly be the con trolling power in the land " The oontkence that was shown in Mr. Cleveland's ability to raise a storm in bis osrn party doubtless arises from tbe infor mal pledges that the Connecticut Inde- “ ndents received from Cleveland. These ankee politicians were wise enough be fore they began to work very hard for Cleveland to get something more than bis record as Governor for a guarantee. In their own way they obtained assurances that Gov. Cleveland was such a civil service reformer as to have no Idea, if he was elected, of turning out all the postmasters and other United States officers who did not come under tbe scope of the civil service law. On the contrary, the Governor was convinced that be should turn out very few office-holders simply because they were Republicans. He knew that would make musio in the Democratic party, bnt thought he could survive It They also learned that tbe Governor waa a revenue reformer after the manner of John G. Carlisle, and that be thought the President had no more argent duty than carefully to scan all bills presented to him to sign, and to measure them by tbe constitution and publio policy, and to keep a sharp eye for special legislation ana jobs.' Having obtained assurances to this ef fect, the Connecticut Independents com municated them to the Massachusetts In dependents and were satitfied.They believe that if Mr. Cleveland stands by such civil service convictions as they were assured he had, there will indeed be just such trouble in the Democratic party as it is their earnest wish to see. Such are the visions of the Independents. 80UTHERN DEMOCRATS ON DECK. How they Propose to Take Control of the incoming Administration. Washington, November 10.—It is obvi ous that the 8onthern Democrats expect to have much to say about tbe formation of the new administration. They will want a large share of the frails of Cleve land’s election, and they desire to be heard, as of old, in the councils of tbe party, and tpbe consulted in the conduct of the government. It was for such con st J era tion s that the Democrats of the South have so long stood back, kept silent, and done the solid voting while their Nor thern brethren have had the mansgement of the party. “We have this time," said a represen tative Southern Democrat, "given not only our solid vote, but our money also. With our money he has carried-four Northern States. Southern Democrats have contributed liberally, and I may say that it is question able whether without onr money, in addition to our votes, Cleveland would have been elected. Our title to consideration is perfect, and there is no reason why we should stand back and not take our share of the fruits of the victory we have won.” Southern Democrats here are for a com plete turn about. They do not take to tht* ideas of the Ind pendent Republicans about the civil pervloe.- Their notion of reform is that Republicans be turned out and that Democrats be put iu their places. They resent ihe suggestion that the “mugwumps," as they are learning to call tire followers of Curtis and Schurz And their Yankee coadjutors in Boston, shall have anything to say about what Cleve land ahall do or what the policy of his ail- ministration shall be. *‘The' , bolting Re publicans.” said a Virgin'V^Democrat, “wanted to beat Blaine, and, if they havo done it, let them be satisfied. What they have done docs not entitle them to share in tire, formation or the spoils of the new administration." An Alabama Democrat said: “This is a Democratic victory—the restoration of the Democratic party to power. Them is no better way to decide who shall have the lion’s share than by seeing where the elec toral votes Came from. Of Cleveland's 210 votes the North gives only 50. All the others are from the South." Already there is much of this kind of talk here. Throughout all these years there have remained in Washington a number of old-rchool Democrats, important once and believing themselves not less so now, who are coming forth to have their share in shaping things. They adopt the Southern idea as indicated above. Mr. Cleveland will be fortunate if, when he com?s to Washington, he escapes being brought under this kind of domination. The Dem ocrats referred to propose to begin ns nearly ns possible where they left ofT, al most thirty years ngo. These things are not to be left unsaid because they are not as agreeable ns other things which tnitrhr be paid. They are fhe things which one who looks for facts first sees. They are what Mr. Cleveland will soon enough find out. They necessarily follow his election. If Mr. Cleveland is hi* own man's rann, the threatened difficulty will bo easily averted. But if he is not strong and cour ageous, and does not p-rfectly understand men, their motives and aims, and does not become a master at once, then, in the language of General Butler at Chicago, “God help him.” ir pretty little room. fl is upon tbe floor.

Victoria Morokini Hchelling says that all she wants ia an opportunity to earn an honest living. When sho ran away from her Yonkera home with her father’s coach- ma i she never gave a thongbt to the future. Atterthe reporters found her and her hnsband in Weat Twelfth street it was im possible for them to go Into the street without a crowd at their heels. The most trying experience of this kind happened when tbe excitement over the elopement began to die out. The young runaway* had been in the house all day. Their room wo* on the first floor, with the windows only a short distance above the sidewalk. To prevent passers by from peering Into the room the curtains were kept tightly drawn. It was very warm one evening, and when darkness began to gather the curtains and windows were raised. Mrs. Schelling was tested near oce of the windows, when she felt a tag at her skirts. She screametWand sprang back Into tbe room. Hcrhnband looked out and saw a tall fellow making desper ate efforts to climb into the room. When he aaw8helling he dropped to the aide- walk and disappeared. Shortly afterward the young couple started out for a walk. They had not gone f*r when they discovered that the same fellow was following them. A few minutes later they noticed a crowd gath ering, and aaw that the big man waa pointing them ont to everybody he met. Gradually the crowd grew until bhelllng became alarmed. He then hurried hia wife into a cab and escaped. The most persistent of their tormentors were alleged theatrical agents. They kept calling at tha house until their rings at tbe bell were not answered. Then they wrote offensive not •, making all kinds of absurd offers. To escape this, Mr. 8chel- ling moved to West Twenty-eeoond street. _ . A Sun reporter called cm Mr. and Mrs. 3cnailing lost evening. He round them she bad on when she climbed the bill to tho Mount St, Vincent Seminary and met her brother.. In friendly convene.
