Sl,Os0. Plaintiff, through his at
torney, Harmsl Pratt, moved the court
for judgment on the pleadings. After
hearing Arguments and the testimony
OF A. s. Reiser, deputy city recorder,
and plaintiff hoAllIster, his honor
took the case under sdyisement.
In his affidavit for the writ McAllis-
ter sets out that he was appointed to
the ofIicb Of inspector Of provleions on
the 8ih Of October, 1894 Tor the term
Of two years and until his successor
was duly appoin ted by the Mayor and
confirmed by the City Council; that
no is still inspector OF provisions, for
the reason that his successor has never
been appointed and that therefore he is
entitled to back pay. 1t Is further
claimed by plaintiff that the City
Council never created the Office, hence
mad no right to abolish 1t. Assistant
City Attorney Hempstead, VINO APP
pearsd for Auditor Swan argued that
when power has been given to,appOlnt
to az Office aud the power has been
exercised any subsequent appoint
ment to tine same office would be void
unless the prior Incumbent had been
legally removed or tho ollie had
otherwise become vacant.
"rhe act OF appointing exhausta the
appointing power" he argued, "and
until the removal or dismissal OF The
incumbent in manner prescrIbsu by
law, any re-exerciee OF the power Is
void"

DR.. R. S. Hiudekoper recently deliv-
cred in New York an interesting lecture
on the horse in the sale ring of the
Horse Exchange. The subject matter
dealt with the unsoundness of the ami
NAL, such as splints, curbs, spavins,
etc, and few general points
for laymen ON the correct formation of
horse. In a perfectly formed horse the
length of the head from the poll to the
nose should represent the distance from
the withers to the point of the shoulder;
from the posterior point of the shoulder
blade to the point of the pelvic bone,
the length of the pelvic bone; from the
point of the shoulder to the knee, and
from the stifle joint to the hook. Classic
unsoundness, such as splints and spav-
ins and curbs, are, according to DR..
Hiudekoper, of comparative unimpor-
lance in the cold blooded work horse, as
against similar ailments in the highly
bred running and trotting horse, where
every such disease acts as detriment to
speed
