an odd street tight on Washington
street, near the Adams house, on Sat
urday night As usual there was a
urowd of loungers, who are to be seen
in that locality at all hours of the day
and night They were leering at pass
ersby in their usual fashion, when a
gentleman with two ladies made his
appearance. Une of tne women was
separated from her companions by an
accident, and a would be masher ap
proached her with his face wreathed
in smiles. He was clad in a long yel
low ulster, and wore a derby hut. As
he lifted his hat and was about to ac
cost her. she wheeled around like a
flash ana hit him a smart slap on his
face, with the words:
"What do you mean by insulting
me, sir!" She didn't stop there, either,
for as the man rushed upon her and
attempted to strike bcr in a most cow
ardly manner, she took a true pugi
listic attitude, and his blow glanced
harmlessly off. Before anybody could
interfere, she had thrown her muff to
the sidewalk and was delivering blows
thick and fust upon her antagonist,
who, although he tried to strike back,
could do little. A powerful blow with
her right hand finally laid the young
man on the sidewalk amid the cheers
of the crowd. He picked himself up
and walked off at a rapid rate, while
the young woman joined her compan

venture, seemingly. Boston Cor.
