Wild from the effects of a heavy jag/* she went out to put ] a few coats of bright red on the Tenderloin district. With her Went Florence Gibson,* an inmate of the Thompson resort. Flo Thompson was looking for Bud McCoy, the man whom she recently left, after he had given her a house and lot and a big roll of money, and when she looks at her face in the glass this morning she will at once arrive at the conclusion that she found him or someone just as healthy as he.Flo’s face looks as though it had been runthrough a pair of muck rolls. The womantoyed with the beer and whisky bottles all yesterday afternoon, and at 9 o’clock she came to the conclusion that she was in ship-shape to capture McCoy’s saloon. So, accompanied by Flo Gibson, she gathered up half a dozen or more empty beer bottles and started on the war patn. It was but a short walk to McCoy’s place, and reaching it, both women proceeded to fracture all the window lights. Bottle after bottle was thrown through the windows, one of them passing over the bar and uncomfortably close to the head of the proprietor. This settled the whole business so far as tho women were concerned for McCoy, who knows a thing or two about fighting, went out and his first 'act was to knock both of the women down. Then he turned his attention to Flo Thompson. He struck her on the nose, in both eyes and on the mouth, on the right cheek and on the left. Then he scratched her for awhile, finally letting her get up so Bhe could make her escape, which she did without further ceremony. The Gibson woman went with her, and for the next two hours they went from one saloon to another, buying whisky and beer and getting helplessly drunk. Finally, however, they ran into the arms of Officer McCabe, and from this place of refuge they went to jail.hoimagwonmapie•3too;thepaitheistoof]mitooflie]ricedpeiJpeimaamthetoHUNTING A HUSBAND.A Mysterious Woman in Black is Willingto Buy One.The family of Frank Harris of 312 North Seventeenth street is just now the most in-ersas1FoceeprcTh
