SOM TAG'S SKULL THICK.
That Probably Saved Devlne
From a Trial For Murder.

Patrick Devine, of No. q Paterson
Plank Road, was tried in the General
Sessions Court today for atrocious as
sault and battery on Constable Joseph
Sonntag, of No. los West street, West
Hoboken. on June IA Rose Farrell, Of
NO. Is FORSYTH street, New York, came
to this city to visit friends. That was
her visiting day. She spent a portion
of the day with friends at No. 5S4 Pall-
sade avenue. There was no tea nancy,
so beer was served up instead, and when
Rose started out to make another call
she was a little unsteady. I ana
s p. M, She met Devine on Palisade ave
hue, and told him that she was going 70
call on a lady who lived IN his house.
She did call there, and had some more
substitute for tea with her lady fren
and Mrs. Devine.
Joseph Kenneth, the owner OF the
house, keeps chickens in the back yard,
and Rose, when she was going away, de-
cided to help herself to some OF the
fowl and have a broiler for breakfast the
next day. Devine objected to her swip-
ing his landlords chickens, and when
she persisted he blackened her eyes,
broke her nose and caused her to bleed
profusely. Rose went to Justice of the
Peace Francois, in West Hoboken. to
get a warrant for Devine. Constable
Sonntag returned with her to arrest De
vine. AS they approached the house
Zennetti's son saw them, end Informed
Devine, who forthwith procured a ham
mer and went down to the front door
to receive the enemy.
When the Constable got to the top of
the stoop Deyine reached out from be-
hind the door and struck him on the
head with the hammer, fracturing his
skull and knocking him senseless. De
vine then went to the Sixth precinct po-
lice station and reported to Sergeant
Cannon that he had killed a man and
that the man body vas lying in front
of his house. Sergeant Cannon sent the
patrol wagon up. but the body could moi
be found. Sonntag had crawled On his
hands and knees to his home, about a
quarter of a mile away. 1t was thought
that he was mortally injured, but he told
the doctors thai his skull was thick and
he would recover. He did recover af-
ter spending twenty days in the City
Hospital. Devine could not deny that he
struck Sonntag and he was convicted.

HEAD-0N COLLISION
Two Trolley Cars Come To-
gether--But Little
Harm Done.

A head-on collision between two trolley
cars occurred shortly before one o'clock
today in front of The News office.
Disastrous results were averted by the
presence Of mind Of the motormen. The
cars were Bayonne No sos, in charge Of
Motorman Michael Cummings, and Pacific
avenue No. 421. in charge Of Martin
Healey. Both cars were bound for the
ferry. the Bayonne car coming through
Washington street from Grand, and the
Pacific avenue car coming from Mont
gomery street. They reached opposite
sides Of York street at about the same
time. Healey slowed down in order to
let the Bayonne car turn into York street
first. Cummings did not stop his car, but
instead of turning into York street It
kept right on over the switch and along
Washington street. Before Cummings
could put on the brake and reverse the
motive power. the Bayonne ear crashed
into the Pacific venue car and smashed
the fender to smithereens. Luckily no
other damage was done, as Cummings
had his car nearly stopped when the
collision occurred. The accident was
caused by some mischievous school boy
turning the switch.

OH, THESE BOULEVARD LIGHTS.
Resident of Wiley Street Joins the
Army of Complain ants.

M. L. Gates, of No. 36 Wiley street, a
part of the Boulevard. complained to
Mayor Hoos this morning that the cleo
trio light on the corner of the Boulevard
and his street has only been doing the
work for which it was intended fifteen
or twenty times since April last, and a
whole block, excepting these night, has
been left in Egyptian darkness. Mr..
Gates hints that the Jersey City Elec-
trio Light Company should do it's work.
The trouble, however, is that the J. G.
Electric Company are not in fault. They
have no light on Wiley street, and the
blame lies at the door of those in charge
of the expensive plant run by the Free
holders, at Snake Hill. The lamp COM
planned of is a Boulevard lamp, and, like
many others on that thoroughfare,
is a constant source of worry, annoy
ance, vexation and danger to the unfor-
tunate beings using the road.
