.Tbe landlord and tenan. law applies TO
boarders and roomers in boarding houses
as well as occupants of other houses, eN-
rlained a well-known magistrate 10 a Star
reporter. 'tiIuGgh very few cases arise 10
appiy it, Hotels are somewhat different
from boarding houses. in that they are run
under a hotel Ecense which gives the pro-
prietor of the hotel absolute rronrietorshlp
over them. No license Is necessary TO run
a boarding house and they have none OF
the protection given hotclkeepers, IN the
way of pitching out undesirable persons
ss.yzing baggage, for board and the like.
Ordinarily boarding house can get nd OF
n boarder they do not want by ask ng him
to get out. but now and then boarders so
requested Will not move out. Now with 4
hotel the proprietor can take possession OF
the room. throw the belongings of the oc-
cupant out and then lock up the room,
thus ending all question 10 tenancy m
one or two moves. In case boauder, ny
this | mean a roonsr also. is undesirable
ard he she declines 10 move out. reSu-
lar ten days notice 10 quit must be served,
the same in the case of tenants OF
houses Pending the passage of the ten
days, the boarding house keeper can de-
e. ne to furnish meals or allow meals to
come into tine room from the outside They
can also take such articles of furniture as
they desire ont of the room. going so far
as to leave the bare floors and walls.
''They can decline To attend The beds. fur
nish faci'ities for washing, the use of the
gas and can deprive tn. occupant of al
most everything hut they CaTnot drive the
occupant on; if he or she insists on stay
Ing until the expiration of the ten days
notice AT that time the magistrate can
authorize constable to take possession
OF the roc. without any further ceremony.
ONE would hardly imagine that persons
would insist occupying rooms under
such circumstances. but now and then they
do. though instances are somewhat rare.
