HIS BETTER HALF
Pat Garrity's Wife Puts Tjp a Good
Fight
When Officer Ben Robblns got on a
Pico street ear yesterday afternoon he
was not looking for trouble, but he cer
tainly found some. Seated at the end
of the conveyance were Pat Garrity and
his wife. It so happened that Pat had
been imbibing and was feeling gay.
"The top of the morning to yez, yez
limping blackguard," said he to the of
ficer. "Do yez want to foight?" No
time was there for a reply, for he had
already divested himself of his coat and
made a lunge at the officer's physiogno
my. The fight was a pretty one and
lasted three minutes.
At the end of the first round the officer
was sitting on the belligerent's chest.
The second brought reserve forces to
the front in the person of Mrs. Jane Doe
Garrity, whose reputation for "scrap
ping" is only equaled by that of her hus
band. Four times did the handicapped
officer throw the enraged spouse to the
ground and three times did she rise to
the occasion and renew the attack. At
the end of the fourth round Officer Rosso
and the conductor called "time," and
both Put nnd his wife were presented
with a pair of handsome bracelets.
Pat's language was visible in smoke all
the way up Broadway, and the officers
heaved two sighs of relief when the
fighting pair were landed behind the
bars, and Officer Robbins wended his
way to the hospital to have his dislocat
ed thumb restored to its original posi
tion.
