Mr.. Olney, the sexton of st. Marks
church, has brought suit against it for
$11 for services, and was granted
judgment. We cannot see why a
church with handful of members
should not dispense with sexton hire.
1t would be as little as the members
could do to save that money by clean
ing the church themselves. and thus
consume part Of their time, instead
of gossiping from house to house.
They are aware that the congregation
is far too small to keep up the pastor
and his family as they should be kept,
and yet they must have very useless
expense of $1.25 per week for sexton
hire. 1t takes every cent they can
rake and scrape to pay their pastors
house rent and proyide him with some
thing to prevent the separation of
breath and body, nothing being said
about his salary.

appeared before Commissioner Hugh
Ryan in behalf of their client, J. J.

torney for the Municipal League to- ap-
pear in order that dispositions of both
parties could be taken before suit
comes to trial. Anyone having valua-
BILE evidence, and having common
sense with it, will not go around the
streets peddling it out while trial is
pending; but instead, he will spring it
in court. The one who is circulating
this black dispatch can, by proving it.

where check for 5000 is awaiting
him.
Some of our people have an idea that
when the case was argued before
Judge johnson in order to go on CAL
lendar for trial, and certain motions
were stricken out, that that was the
end of the case. 1t was only the COM
mencement. All motions in all cases
when stricken ott amounted to $40,
which is part Of the cost in any
court. Some one whose balance was
not just right has started false re-
por to the effect that Municipal
League has in it's possession a letter
written by me. defy anyone to pro-
duce letter or anything else aside
from a postal written by me. I also
defy anyone to truthfully say that
they ever saw or knew Of me visiting
