Summer Work of the Priests at Georgetown University—Other Interesting Local Notes. The police of the seventh precinct were right busy yesterday. The most serious case was that of John Temple, a negro, who was arrested by Policemen Pierce and Passeno on a charge of assaulting Mary Ford, a negress, with whom he is intimate. The man struck the woman in the head with a lamp, rendering her unconscious for over half an hour. In addition to this, he started to carve her, and slashed her sav- agely up the back with a knife, which, fortunately, was not sharp enough to cut deep. Only a short time ago the negro made an even more murderous asault on the woman, but she would not prosecute him. After hearing the evidence yester- day Judge Miller sent the negro to jail for six months. John Coates, a seventeen-year-old negro, was arrested by Policeman Steinbraker on a charge of disorderly. John was a mem- ber of a crowd of crap shooters about a month ago in an alley on Prospect avenue between 87th and Ssth streets, who man. aged to escape at the time the police ap- peared.
