streamed down her face. The specta

led away. Before leaving the morgIle
she asked TO see the remains OF the
woman whose unfaithfulness had led
to the crime, and contrary TO expecta
tons she exhibited signs OF affection

him. he was negligent OF his duty
and he began drinking freely. Often
he would leave the city and be gone
weeks at time, but because of his
former good record was always rein
stated Finally, however, in 1898,
charges were preferred against him
and he was dismissed from the force.
Since then he has been engaged in

HARD, SUPPOSEDLY AT IN.
STANCE OF THOMPSON'S
FRIENDS.

IL will be a blue Christmas for 10
employees OF the park department. The
iong-expected decapitation5 OF en-
ployes has begun and these men are
the ones that get the blue envelope In
their Christmas stocking. Most OF the
men discharged are employed on Bello
Isle and the salaries attached to the
jobs are small.
The more important employments.
such as secretary, engineer, superin-
tendent. and overseers OF the big parks
are not touched. This may be due to
the wish OF Commissioner Hinchman
TO make his brief administration a
successful one. In spite o. politics.
The discharges which have been made
public are supposed to be mainly for
political reasons. although one or
more are for cause.
Just where the responsibility for
the sweep lies ID not given out by
anyone In the department or outside.
although IL Is generally placed with
the BOARD OF strategy" composed or
friends OF Mayor Thompson. The
mayor refused to discuss the changes.
while Park Commissioner Hinchman
was extremely busy and could not go
into the matter Thursday morning.
These arc the men who walk the
plank: r. r. Meyer and Thcoe Schoen,
engineers; T. w. Solomon fireman,
Ed Laderoot, aquarium attendant
Charles Dutton, inspector; Ed Grav
and J. Vishea, cashiers: ii. Buchholtz
ID. Heintz and j. Haskins. barn men:
VI. Willis, w. Plass and +. Lemke,

der, inspector: James Hogan, phaeton

and 9. G. Conen, barn men, Frank Fet-
tig, Morris Bresnahan and J. Stras
hure. patrolmen; Dennis FOLEY, John
Hoey and Aaron Cohen, Janitors In
the convenience station.
The worst of of the men discharged
Is Heintz. who vas hurt IL an acct
dent In Palmer park number OF
years ago and is unable To do ordin.
airy manual labor. He wag kept on
the park pay roll because he was able
TO do the barn work. and tue plea was
made for him that he wouic have 10
20 to the poor house IL he were dis
charged There have been some com
plants OF his conduct lately.
All the new appointments go into
effect Dec. IS There are still three
men to be picked for tha three va.
cant places in the list, the places u
ing those OF engineer, attendant in
