Well Known Women Mix Things in a Boarding House. Mrs. Frona Eunice Waite is we}l known in this city and that is why the following from yesterday’s San Francisco Call will be read here with ‘Keen interest: Mrs. Waite, a literary lady and the discoverer of the California Venus, ano Mrs. M. J. Single, a society lady from the interior, exchanged compliments at the Wentworth dinner table Wednes day evening, and the. result of, this friendly greeting was a lot of broken crockery aiid enough loose hair to make a “pompadour roll” for a fashionable belle. P Those who witnessed the. event were erthusiastic about the neatness and dispatch with which the blows were delivered, and declared such great intighting had never before. occured betwéen the soup and the fish. Mrs. Waite and. Mrs. Single met at the table. “You have been circulating malicious stories about me,” said one of the lad contestants. “You lie!” said the other lady. Then the first lady struck out with her lily white hand and smote the other lady By. this time the first lady had pulled out a handful of the other lady’s hair, the other lady being engaged ‘in the ex pensive pastime of smashing the boarding house china upon her opponent’s head. It wasat this interesting point that the women seated around the tables began to faint and their male relatives, being forced to carry them from the room, missed the exciting finish. Neither Mrs. Waite nor Mrs. Single were to be seen at the Wentworth yesterday. Mr. Shaw, their landlord, had not the slightest idea where they could be found, although he was positive they had left his boarding house. “Tsent Mrs. Waite notice through her gentleman friend that I gid not care t: have her any longer as a boarder and she left as soon as my message. was ‘de livered. Mrs. Single came to me and excitedly declared she would not re4 main under the same roof that ‘sheltered Mrs. Waite and gave me her keys. I made no protest and she also went her way.” The landlord of the Wentworth is ignorant of the details of the fistic encounter at his dinner table. “All 1 know,” he said, “is that the women have for some time been : gossipping about one another. There was a man mixed up init. I understand. matters came to a climax at the dinner table The lie passed and then Mrs. Waite and Mrs. Single had 2 ‘spat. I was not in the dining room at the time and so missed all the fun. That is all I know about it.” There is only one unsatisfactory end to the interesting event, No oneisable to state who came out victor. Popular opinion, though, is in favor of Mrs. Waite, who has the reputation of never having known a failure. Mrs. Waite is a well known authoress and lecturer. She has traveled throughout the United States delivering lectures, her theme being the California wine industry. In addition to her other honors, Mrs. Waite occupies now the responsible position of assistant to Varney Gaskill, secretary to the California Commission of the Paris Exposition. ———+98e-+—_.
