The Jersey City news. (Jersey City [N.J.]) 1889-1906, 1897-09-10

FOR two lays now a hideous nuisance
has offended thousands of persons at
Hudson and Montgomery streets. The
sewer basin there appears to be out Of or
der, and the sewage has been backed up
by the tide or its own pressure SO as 10
overflow a large part of the highway with
a most offensive mess. Enquiry brings
out the fact tina the police reported the
state of things to the Street and Water
Board promptly. but down to noon today
no steps had been taken to remedy It.
At any time the offensiveness OF the
matter which floods the street would call
for instantaneous remedy. In weather
ike this, delay is nothing short of Grim
inal. The smell is enough to create sick
ness for blocks around. and thousands OF
persons have to pass the spot on the way
to and from the ferry.

RIVER FRONT TROLLEY BEJ0INED
Undertaksr Dewitt Says Ia Company
Encroachcs Upon His Property.

Messrs. Corbin & corbin. of this city,
secured an injunction in the Court of
Chancery. yesterday. on behalf of John
j. Dewitt. a Hpboken undertaken, re-
straining the River Front Trolley Road
from running its cars until it discon-
tinues to trespass on Mr.. Devitt's prop
erty, at the corner Of Hudson and
Eleventh streets. The wires of the COM
pany cross the property, and Mr.. Dewitt
also claims thai the tracks are inside
the curb line.
The road was constructed a short time
ago for the purpose Of connecting the
Junction roads tracks with the steam
ship docks so as to afford direct trans
portation of freight. No freight has yet
been transported over the road, so the
company will not suffer to any great
extent by the injunction,
If Mr.. Dewitt is successful in his fight
other property owners along the line will
| undoubtedly institute proceedings against
the company also.

Realty OF sign Language.

DR.. Gallaudet, the eminent teacher of
deaf mutes, says that to him the sign
language is as real as the spoken. when
about to speak to deaf mutes," says the
doctor. II do not think out what I van
to say in English and then translate 1t
into signs. | think in the signs, and 4
am firmly convinced that signs are to the
deaf what sounds are to those, who hear.
II is hard to explain to people possessing
all their natural faculties Just why GER
tain signs nve certain impressions.
hut they do. Take the written sentence.
L am glad to see YOU The words mean
nothing to a child; but speak them and
he knows at once what you mean. He
has unconsciously acquired a knowledge
Of sounds as the expression of ideas in
the mind. and when you speak those
sounds he understands YOU. Show the
written sentence to a deaf mute who has
not been educated; they signify nothing
to him. But make, the proper sign and
he understands o at once. The mo-
lions indicate i see YOU, my heart beats
You can't tell how. but in some way the
meaning flashes upon him and he knows
you are saying, / am glad to see you.'
