WOMAN DRAWS PAY
FROM SPECIAL FUND
DIR. HAYNES PROBES LICENSE
CLERKS OFFICE
Fair Worker Whose Name Was Not
Certified to Civil Service Commits
sion Cots Stipend Through
Council Appropriation

Mrs. Nora Phipps, young woman VINO
for several months has held the position
of assistant license clerk in the office Of
City Clerk Harry Lelande, had her in
terests championed and opposed before
the civil service commission yesterday.
She has been working under emergency
appointment and Chairman John r.
Haynes reported that he could find no
record of payments to her of a salary.
SIS the woman working for nothing?"
asked the chairman of Secretary Spauld-
ing.
Examination showed that Mrs. Phipps
was drawing her pay, Through a special
appropriation for the license department.
Chairman Haynes said it was another
case Of a job being created for purpose
and then politics being used to insure
certain appointments, intimating that a
nonresident was after the place.
The city council has just passed new
law creating the office of assistant and
an examination will probably be called
for eligibles shortly.
DR.. Haynes brought l.i1 the question
Of legality of paying extra help in tho
city clerks office, but 1t appears that
Auditor w. c. Mushet had already con-
suited the city attorney and found that
Mrs. Phipps' services could be paid for
as Clerk Lelande has arranged.
The work in the license department has
increased lately and more help is deemed
necessary.

Hours and Fight FoIIows-Rlng-
leader Fined $25 for Dis
turbing Peace

"Ayast there!" shouted Patrolman Nc
Card yesterday morning when he and two
other officers arrived at Martins restau-
rant, 121 South Main street.
The hail of the officers was answered
number of bluejackets belonging to the
feet now anchored off San Pedro. And
the yells were those c. defiance. The po-
licemen accepted the challenge and as a
result five sailors were before Justice
Chambers a few hours later and paid
fines.
The men entered the restaurant about
2:30 in the morning and Immediately
started on tour of inspection which
brought them to the kitchen, where the
cook, angry because of the invasion of
his domain, vigorously protested and
ordered the men to 80 back to the main
part of the building.
The men became angry at what they
considered interference and led by Gunner
Richard Hockett started fusillade of
movables toward the head of the cook,
who fled, leaving behind him a CORY
stream. The place looked like a shambles
notwithstanding the f.ct that 1t was cat
sup and not blood flowing so abundantly.
The men were charged with disturbing
the peace. Hockett, who was locked up
as the ringleader, was fined $25. and the
charge against Robert Harrison, on mo-
ton of Prosecutor Ford, was dismissed.
Three others paid fines of 50 each.
The Mexican who acted as guide and
who had fed at the first appearance of the
police is being searched for.

PROSECUTOR GIVEN
AN AWFUL FRIGHT
CREDITOR DELIGHTED AT SIGHT
OF MONEY
Attorney Ford Meets with Shocking
Experience When Grocer Catches
Him with Roll of Real
Currency

''Well, you might pay your grocery bill
with part of that wad."
Deputy Prosecutor Joseph Ford looked
UP at the speaker and saw the urbane
countenance of his groceryman, smiling
benignantly upon him.
To the curious bystander, it looked like
"dun;" to Ford 1t looked like a trap,
and to the groceryman, it looked like
"cinch."
Mr.. Ford, together with other officers,
has not drawn his salary for some time,
owing to the long extended litigation,
regarding the salaries of prosecutors, still
pending in the supreme court, and as a
result, grocery bills have accumulated.
In Mr.. Fords case the situation was ex-
planned to the grocer, and he accepted the
explanation in good faith.
Yesterday, however. the grocer was ar
rested and fined for violating the hitching
which was refused, and he was given
chance to exchange scrip for cash out
side the court room.
Casting about him for a friend in need
he spied Mr. Ford, sitting comfortably,
seemingly unconcerned regarding the fate
of his fellowman or grocery bills, at his
desk in the prosecutors office.
The grocer reconized his debtor; Ford
failed to recognize his creditor.
'T have to pay a fine in there, and
must have the cash; can you give me
currency for this scip?' asked the grocer.
Certainly" said Ford. hauling out
roll of bills as large as goose-liver
sausage.
Then the groceryman. who had been la
boring under the impression that one of
his best customers was down to his last
nickel, brazenly dunned the attorney for
what was due him.
But Ford didn't pay. The money be-
longed to the city and he could not use
It for his own expenses.
II convinced him. all right" said Joe
to friend a little later. 'but it took
some good hard pleading at the bar.
The next time I flash roll like that
will take careful look at the faces
Of the bystanders.
Some day the court will come through
with that decision and we will be happy.
1t was perilous moment. I'll bet big
red apples some of those reporters get
line on the affair and make a comedy
of it. 1t was near tragedy for me-"

All cIews to Identity Destroyed.
Wore a Gold
Watch

The body of an unidentified man was
found in box car on the Santa Fe track,
near Ninth and River Bottom, yeeter-
day afternoon. His death was evidently
a suicide, as Harrington & Richardson
revolver, with one chamber empty, was
found by his side and bullet had entered
the right temple.
1t is believed the man tried to hide his
identity, for not scrap OF paper or any
thing else that might lead to his identi-
fication was found on his person. In his
pockets were gold watch and $1.26 in
money.
The man was about feet inches tall,
145 pounds, about 80 years of age. He
had been dead from six to ten hours when
found. The remains were taken to Bresee
