WAGES 1S POLTICAL DEATH Dr. Crowiey Dropped as Milk In- spector After Eloven Yaars. STAR CHAMBER ~METHODS ~FAIL Dr. Radcliff Blected to Succeed Dr. Orowley—Quinlivan Chosen Plumb- . ing Inspector Instead of Welant— Reeks Re-clected. All records for pelitical raw deals under the Quigley misadministration were shattered late yesterday after- noon when the board of health, with- out notice and without expressing any | fault with Milk Inspector George T. fired him from office and elected in his stead Dr.. BioDi ‘Rad- Cliff. The vote was 4 to 1, Dr. Henry. T, Bray standing by Dr. Crowley on the strength of his excellent record since 1904. Those who voted to dis- miss this efficient public servant were Chairman Henry S. Tallard, Milton W. Davenport, Dr, Arvid Anderson and Timothy Burns. Reporters Fool Commissioners. The committee thought it was going to have a nive quiet session without any reporters bheing present and sev- eral faces assumed a funeral expres- sion when the scribes dropped in. The representatives of the press were not welcomed with open arms and glad smiles were conspicuous by their Tt was a big disappointment to the poard as the hour of the meet- ing had been kept secret from the press and no oue thought the report- ers knew anything about it. Quinlivan Plumbing Ingpector, In addition to dumping Dr. Crow- ley, the board declared the office of plumbing inspector vacant and elect- ed Thomas Quinlivan in place of Al- bert E. Weiant, who has held the of- fice for the past year. Henry 8. Tal- lard was re-elected chairman. Other re-elections were: Dr. T. E. Reeks, supérinténdent of "health; John T. O’'Brien, sanitary inspector; John T. McEnroe, assistant sanitary inspector; Mis§ Gertrude M. Johnson, welfare nurse; Miss Sara A, Carroll, tubercu- losis nurse, and Mrs. Gertrude Bowen, office clerk, Tallard Hems and Haws. Chalrman Tallard was asked after the meeting why Dr. Crowley had inspector. He hemmed and hawed and could give no specific reason ex- Gept to say that the men' who had voted for him believed the department geuld he improved by the election of Dr. Radéliff. He gave.a long speech on efficicncy and told how hard the commissioners are working every waking minute trying to improve the department, ~ To hear him tell it, the Health commission is emulating Atlas and carrying the world on its shoul- deérs. He was informed that the peo- o e ARG SR i ple in general believed Dr. Crowley TEACHERS' BANQUET TONIGHT. ! wag filing the office with efliciency and he admitted that such might be the cése but —er—hem—haw—well— A réporter, told Commissioner Daven- port that the firing of Dr. Crowley was one of the dirtiest political tricks ever but . all the commissioner did was grin. Chalrman Doesn’t Know Charter. Dr. Reecks, as clerk of the board, called the meeting to order and called for the nomimation of a chairman. Commissioher Davenport Commissioner Tallard and he unanimously chosen. was by calling for thé nomination of o superintendent of health. Dr. Bray called his attention to his little fanx | pas and said it was not necessary te elect a superintendent of health es a successor s appointed. Commission- er Burns moved that no appointment be made. Chairman Tallard put the motion but Dr. Bray emphasized his necessary to take any action or to go on record regarding the office. Com- missionér Burns didn’t think it would do any harm to g0 on record in faver Dr. Bray said he pre- ferred not to have the board go to record and Cemmisiener Burns with- drew his motion. AH Cut and Dried. The next business was putting the skids under Dr. Crowley. A blind per- gon could see that it was all cut and dried. A Herald reporter had becn vote would be five to one and this was correct, Dr. George H. Bodley, who was absent, expressing himself by letter as being in favor of Dr. Rad- cliff. Dr. Reeks read an applmatlon for the office from Dr. Radeliff. Dr. Bray said he would like to be certain that the board was taking the right course and was in order. He brought out the point that there was no vacancy existing in the office of the milk, meat and food inspeetor and he was desir. ous of avolding all entanglements, Another “Break” By Chairman, Chairman Tallard again showed his unfamiliarity with the charter by say- ing that he understood the milk In- spector and the plumbing wanted to be appointed each year. Dr. Bray replied that he wanted to be sure he whas right before going ahead. Com- missioner Burns thought it would be well to declare the office vacant be- fore electing anyene milk inspector. Commissioner Davenport removed his pipe from His mouth long enough to make a motion that the office be de- clared vacant. Dr. Bray Praises Dr. Crowley. “I am going to vote against the mo_ tion,” sald Dr. Bray, “I will support nominated | The chairman I shrowed his ignorance of the charter the charter says he shall serve until | point thdt under the charter it is not | informed before the meeting that the | i “If YOU NEED A GARBAGE CAN BUY IT OF HARDWARE M A b2 ALSO RAKES, BROOMS, WHEEL BARROWS, LAWN MOWERS THE HERBERT L.

Pavenport Out ;of Order. Again Commissioner Davenport spoke, this time to make a motion that Dr. Radcliff be appointed milk inspector. Dr. Bray informed him that he was out of order and that the chair should call for nominations. Commissioner Burns suggested that an informal ballot be taken. A let- ter from Dr. Bodley was read stating that he favered Dr. Radcliff for milk inspector and Thomas Quinlivan for plumbing inspector. Chairman Tal- lard directed that Dr. Bodléy's vote be cast for Dr. Radcliff but Dr. Bray thwarted him by stating that Dr. Bod- Dr, ley had left no proxy and i he had | there was no revenue stamp attached to it. Dr. Bodley’'s vote was not cast. The axe descended and the re- sult was Dr. Radcliff 4, Dr. Crowley 1. Chairman Tallard grinned and asked Dr. Bray if he didn’t want to make the vote formal and unanimous. ! Dr. Bray replied that he was willing to do so as he believed any official elected should have the whole sup- port of the board after election. "I know I'm beaten,” he said. Change in Plumbing Inspector. When the time chmé to elect a plumbing inspector Df. Bray' moved that the office be declared vacant. Commissioner - Burns moved for an informal ballot and Dr. Recks read an application for the position from 0. A. Peterson. The vote was 4 to 1 in favor of Quinlivan. Dr. Bray made it formal and unanimous. Dr. Bray moved that the inspectors be ‘elccted for not rmore than one vear. He explained that this would give the board the whip hand over them. He said it might be irregular, although neot illegal, to declare the offices vacant each year. Chairman Tallerd appointed himself and Dr. Reeks a committee to look into. the legal status of such a regulation. The meeting concluded with the re- election of the superintendent and other emplovees of the department. GAS METER ROBBED. Louie Albrese, who conducts a har- | 1 ber shop at No. 454 Main street, noti- fied the police last night that the gas meter in his cellar had been robbed. An investigation is under way. THERE'S ANOTHER BORN EVERY MIN. Pasquale De Franze Separated from $27 by Time Worn Bunco Game. They're not all dead yet and there’s ancther born every minute. Pas- quale De Franze, of No. 140 Beaver street admits that he is the goat Anl.l’ while he is not entitled to any sym- | pathy he still expects the police to secure the return of $27 from which he was separated last night by two slick strangers who worked a bunce game on him that Methusalah would have laughed at when he was a boy. e DeFranze met two congenial séuls, well dressed and apparently prospeér. ous, near Landers’ playground at 6:30 o’clack last night. They were seek- ing ‘a good bank in which to deposit their untold wealth and if Pasquale’ Wwould direct them they would pay him as much as $5. *“Pretty soft,” says Pasquale. Thus encouraged he gave them much advice, but they were suspicious and tald him they had $3,000, and' must investigate the bark before they ; deposited it. - If Pasquale would hold. the $3,000, which was wrapped up in a red bandana, and let them hold $27 | he had as security, they would look | up the bank and they would return. After getting tired of waiting for them to return with. his 27 De Franze apened the bandana and found a nice collection of clippings from an Italian newspaper. The pollce‘ were notified. BASEBALL COMPLAINTS. Residents Object to Sunday Games and { to Language Used at Same, Two | baseban complaints against Sunday were filed with the police teday. One was made by Mayor Quigley who said that he had been | notified by residents on McClintock road that the Sunday ball games near | there are too noisy and the language | used unbearable. Oscar Lundell, of 496 Steele street, objects to hall playing near his place | at any time. He says the boys lose | the ball and chase through his fresh- 11y planted garden to 100k for it.
