Two Months Sal
ary.
CITY MADE NO DEFENSE
Victorious Plaintiff Will Now
Sue for the Balance Of
500 Still Due.
CITY MADE NO DEFENSE

Lamp Inspector John Boyd is very
happy man today. He won the suit in
stituted in February last for his salary
for December of last year and January
of this year; the warrants for which
Mayor Pagan refused to sign. He has
continued to perform his duties. as Lamp
Inspector ever since the Mayor refuses
to sign his warrants. Mayor would veto
his monthly salary claim and the Street
and Water Board would pass it over the
Mayors veto. The Mayors contention
is that the position is sinecure. The
salary is 500 month.
The suit was tried before Judge Erwin
of the First District Court, in the Judges
Office in the Commercial Trust Com
pany's Building, in Exchange Place, yes
terday afternoon. This was by agree
ment of counsel on both sides. Corpora
tion Attorney made practically no de-
tense. Counsellor Edwin f.. Smith, of
the firm Of Bedle. Edwards and Thomp-
son, represented Mr.. Boyd. He showed
that Mr. Boyd had been appointed lamp
inspector in accordance with regular
statute and had carried out the duties
prescribed for the position. He declared
that the position was no sinecure, tnat
the inspector was obliged to be on duty
practically at all hours, morning and
night, and even on Sundays.
After listening to testimony and argu-
ment Judge Erwin decided without hes
itation that Mr.. BOYD was entitled -tn-his
salary.
Mr.. Boyd will now sue for balance Of
salary due him up to the present time,
amounting to 500 in addition to the $500
which Judge Erwin declared was due him
for last December and January.
Mayor Pagan said today that he had
been too busy to decide just what action
will be taken by the city in the matter.
He could not say that the case would be
appealed.

"that the place is no sinecure I am on

IN LEO'S MEMORY
Security Council, G. B. L.
Expresses Its Deep
Grief for the Dead
Pointiff.

The following memorial upon the death
of Pope Leo NH, prepared by committee
appointed for the purpose was adopted
at Mondays meeting of Security Coun-
Gil, No. 119 of the Catholic Benevolent
Legion:
'The Council has learned with pro-
found sorrow. of the death of the sover-
eign Pontiff, Leo XIII, who died July
20, 1903.
His years have been long in the land;
and it was granted him to see 'sThe
Years of Peter on the Papal Throne
more than twenty-five; living to the age
OF over ninety-three years, life of great
sanctity, preeminent in the teaching of
morals, faith truth and charity to all
mankind: and in his death not less than
in his life, giving an example of Chris
tian fortitude which compelled the ad-
miration of even those outside the Church
so that it may be truly said that the SYM
pathetic attention of the world was con
centrated on the dying Pope
'Frail in bodily strength, but with
so overtowering an intellect, that the
motto Light From Heaven was accept
ed by the universal church as fypifying
his pontifcate.
"As he rests from his labors. we pray
that the light of the beatifc vision may
shine upon him.
For his successor the eminent Cardinal
Sarto, Plus X, we pray that he may
be given many years, and that the things
which he desires for the honor of God,
for the benefit of humanity and Holy
Mother Church may be granted to him.
The committee which compared the me-
mortal consisted of David Barry, John
-Guilfoyle and Edward Sanborn.
AT the same meetingsone candidate for
first grade membership was voted upon
favorably. SAT the Good of the Legion
President P. ]. Goodwin was surprised
by a burst of enthusiastic congratulatory
addresses from members of the CeuAet
on the birth of son.
