HARRISON BOY WINS OLD
TROLLEY DAMAGE SUIT.
Michael Farese's Judgment OF
$1,000 Is Sustained,

After a fight in the courts that has
extended over a period of three years,
Michael Farese. 15-years-old, son of
Nicholas Farese, a Harrison barber,
has finally won out in his suit against
the North Jersey Street Railway Com
pany. Justice Charles w. Parker, sit
ting in the Court of Errors and APP
peals yesterday, decided thai a verdict
of $1,000, given the boy in the Hud-
son County Circuit Court, is sustained.
Young Farese was on his way to his
home at 102 Harrison avenue on the
night of August 10, 1904. AS he was
crossing Harrison avenue near First
street he failed to see an approaching
Turnpike car. He was knocked down
and his left leg vas broken below
the knee. The injury resulted in his be-
ing confined to bed for six weeks. He
afterwards used crutches for a long
time.
In 1906 the case of young Farese was
placed In the lands of Samuel ka-
fisch, of Newark. It was tried in Es-
sex county and the boy lost. About
a e ago Farese's father decided to
make another fight and he engaged
Alexander Simpson, OF Jersey City.
The case was tried in the Hudson
County Circuit Court. Farese sued for
$4,000, the same amount as that
previously sought in Newark. The
jury rendered a verdict of 81, 900 in the
boys favor. ,
The trolley company carried the oase
to the Court of Errors and Appeals
and lost out by the decision of yes
terday.

AMERICAN LAW
PROCEDURE IS
BEST'--VAN DYKE
Princeton Professor Lectures on
"Fair Play and Democracy
in Montclair Church..

DIR. Henry Van Dyke, of Princeton
University. referred to the famous
Steinheil trial, the Illinois lynchings
and the negro race problem in the flrst
congregational Church, Montclair. HIS
.ub,ect was Fair Play and Democ-
racy."
The lecturer led up to his comment
on the trial by a discussion of the
Supreme Court system of the Onlteo
States. He declared that the system
put the protection Of rights ABOVE Tue
punishment of offenses.
Possibly our courts are lax III pun
ishment," he said. There is no ques-
ton but thai we consider the protec-
ton of rights more important. mat
idea is imbedded in the American peo-
pie.
.Let me put it this way: On the con-
tinent the accused looks guilty until
proven innocent In America he looks
innocent until proven guilty-ln the
courts, at least; perhaps not In the
newspapers. -
1.-THE system prevailing in France mas
its serious defects. 1t brings about
such revulsion of feeling as makes II
impossible to convict, as is witnessed
by a recent trial which has been large-
ly reported in this country:
.sThere are dangerous things in the
American idea. 1t gives a certain I'M
munity, perhaps, to the criminal. Gut
of this grows hasty violence when the
people take the law into their w
hands. That is an unpleasant and a
dangerous thing. 1t Is n of the things
we Americans must look into. When
the American citizen, however, looks
soberly at his own country he Is con-
WINGED that Justice prevails here"
DIR. Van Dyke took up the .Ameri-
can relation of church n state, de-
seribing 1t In detail. He declared that
~jealousies between denominations were,
in any way, a safeguard, ecaus one
keeps its eye on the other He did
not believe that any church or sect in
America has any wish TO see church
and state united.
1.-THE separation of church and state
in France may have seemed to work
hardship" he said. I'm the end, I be-
lieve. that out OF this separation better
things are coming for both the Catholic
and Protestant churches in that coun-
try. The Catholic church never had a
better chance for revival than now that
the people in every little village who
are devout Catholics have to support
their faith. Men value what they
pay for"
Professor Van Dyke was most happy
In his illustrations Of American democ-
c He told of his postman down at
Princeton.
"That uniformed carrier, a man of
Scotch-Irish extraction, lever treated
me any differently from my %neighbor,
the late President Grover Cleveland.
He took an interest in our children,
and he expected us to take an interest
in his.
"Take my guides in the North Woods.
They look Upon me as a curious indi-
vidual who manages in some way to
make a living writing books. They like
me better because 1 have sense enough,
in spite of my writing, to come into the
woods. They are more interested in
my little skill with the paddle than in
anything I have ever done with my
Den."

Belmont avenue, was fined $35 and
costs by Justice of the Peace Harri-
son, of Kearny, today. Horing was

stable Lands, of the S. p. c.. A. 1t

of the sheep were crushing out It's life.
Henry Bauser, the owner of the horse
and truck, went to Kearny only to
find that the young man a been
taken to the Hudson county jail in
jersey City because he was unable to
pay his fine. Bauser stated that the
horse was not lame when 1t left the
stable this morning, and that the truck
was capable Of carrying more sheep
h were loaded on the wagon. He
said it was a common occurrence for
sheep to lay down while they were on
their way to the slaughter house. He
said he would pay the lads fine, but
would protest the case, as he considered
it an outrage. :
Bauser will also have to pay storage
for the wagon and for the feed of the
