tion In tho Hands OF Councils Com
mlttoe.
Harry Palmar, chief engineer of the

Mr.. Palmer, who lives az No 1912
Trenton Place, WAS appointed 10 the
Office two years ago last February. The
term was three years and the salary
81, 600
He succeeded George H. Boughmap, a
Democrat, whose removal by the Repub.
lican City Council created such a fight
between that body and the Street and
Sewer Department, which wished 10 re-
tain him aud questioned the right Of City
Council to either remove sBoughman or
elect Palmer City. y.Councn persisted in
electiug Palmer ana Boughman had TO
step out
Mr Palmer actively and satisfactorily
performed the duties Of the Office until
sbont year ago. when he was attacked
by pulmonary trouble Of an aggravated
nature. Since then he has only been
able to be at the Office at intervals. aud
has had little TO do with the active work
Of the department
During his entire sickness his salary
has continued: but, now, seeing no
prospect OF recovery before his term shall
have expired he has decided, as a matter
Of justice TO the city, to open the place
for some healthy and active man. While
Mr. Palmer was in good health he was
regarded as an efficient director Of the
engineering work OF the municipality.

Considering the immense house which

the presentation of that realistic play

is made up Of Russian court intrigue,
despotism and nihilism, and its interPre-
