Judge Hunt yesterday overruled the de-

Thomas Boyson, who has sued to recover
$4,000. damages for having been elected
from the Palace, after making an agree
ment Tor rooms at 500 month and refus
Ing 10 pay an advance in the rent. In mis-
opinion Judge Hunt says: "If the rela
ton between the parties was that of board
ing-house keeper and boarder rather than
that of inn-keeper and guest, the defendant
would have the right at his option to terfni-
nate the agreement. The distinction be-
tween guest and boarder in law is difficult
to determine. The question was
not involved as contended in the demurrer,
because the complaint merely charged that
the plaintiff lodged at the hotel under a
special agreement; that the defendant had
violated the agreement by raising the rent,
and that the plaintiff had been damaged"
