CIVIL SERVICE TO

Municipal civil service will be one OK
the first things taken up by the COM
mon council after the new committee
appointments are made by the incom-
ing president. Hiram Rose. A request
has been made by the outgoing ordin-
ance committee that the corporation
Ncounsels office draft an ordinance to
cover the situation as Ii exists.
The frst question that has arisen is
as TO whether the departments and
commissions, created by the legisia.
ture, can be dictated to as to their EN-.
ployes. Some aldermen have pointed
out. however, that IL the city provided
a civil service commission. the heada

THINKS FELLOW GREEK
SWINDLED HIM

Judge Phelan has ordered his court
officers TO bring in Theodore Gerasi-
mo, Greek, as a result OF allegations
made by George Pefeas, another
Greek. who was convicted. Thursday
morning. OF carrying concealed weap-
ons and fined sos with the alternative
of 90 days in the house of correction.
The case was an appeal from the po-
lice court. but Pefeas claimed he knew
nothing of the appeal until he was re-
arrested a day or two ago, following
the setting aside OF his bail bond By
Judge Phelan. In the police court Pc
feas was fined s25 with the alterna-
tive OF 80 days. by Justice Stein. He
TOLD Judge Phelan that he gave Gera
simo $50 for the purpose. as he sup
posed, OF paying the fine and getting
him released. Instead. Pefeas was
merely released on a bond furnished
by DR.. M. Silver. and an appeal was
taken.
The bond was not satisfactory to
Judge Phelan and he promptly set Il
aside. The rearrest OF Pefeas follow
ed, much to the latter's surprise. The
officers are now looking for Gerasimo.

Married men In the army are I'M
questionably burden So also are

than q burden; he is a nuisance"
Gen. Bell proposes, however, TO en-
courage marriage among non-commis-
