Mission Act Upon the Matter. + A lively debate over a series of resolu- tions introduced by Gustav Schnee of the Sunnyside ‘Improvement Club asking the Federation of Mission Improvement Clubs 10 appoint a committee of five to lay be- fore Mayor Schmitz the reasons why the members of the federation think it ad- wisable that Colonel George H. Mendeil | should be removed from the Board of Public Works, was the feature of last night's meeting of the club. . ‘The resolutions as introduced by Schnee are as follows: Whereas, G. H. Mendell, president “of ‘the Board of Public Works, holds his positfon in in violation of the provisions of the charter thie, that he draws two salaries one from e municipality and one from the United Etates Government as & retired engineer; and Whereas, OWing to his age and feeble health he does not give his entire time to the affairs of the city, as the charter requires; therefore, be. it Resolved, That the Federation of Mission Im- ement Clubs protest (o his Honor, Mayor ‘:hml!l, against the retention of G. H. Men- 1l as & member of the Board of Fublic ‘orks, and ‘urge his retirement to private life | stead of a salary. ‘appointed the committee that will lay the in accordance with M; utterances that he will not retain any officlals that ar: simply ornaments; and it is further Resolved, That a committee of five be ap- pointed by the chair to present these resolu. tions to the Mayor and urge prompt action and the appointment of a younger and more ener- gAtic man. - Schnee called attention to article XI, section 4 of the charter prohibiting the | recelpt of double emoluments, elther from | the city, State or United States Govern- ment or other sources. Chairman Coles questioned whether, as a retired army officer, Mendell, being on half-pay, was not receiving a pensfon in- F. A. Elliott objected to the wording of the resolution and offered a substitute that a committee of three be appointed to privately lay the matter before Mayor Schmitz and then decide upon what action should be taken by the federation after his ideas had been learned. Several other members took a similar view, but the substitute was defeated. Those who op- posed this action again fought the matter and the resolution was in a fair way to be defeated when a substitute, offered by A. 8. Lillie, embodying the features of the Schnee resolution, except all reference to the haif-pay portion, was adopted. ‘Gustav Schnee, George H. Roundey, James A. Cotter, P. Stolberg, Max Pop- per and President Coles, ex officlo, were resolutions before Mayor Schmitz.

Hahn, agrocer at the corner of Sacramento and Taylor streets, had a lively encounter last night about § o’clock with a would-be robber, whom he suc- ceeded in discomfiting. Hahn was in a small office near the entrance to his place when he heard a slight nolse in the store. He came out of the office only to find the muzzle of a revoiver thrust into his face. - Hahn noticed that the robber’s hand siightly trembfed and he jumped for the revolver. There was a short, sharp struggle. Hahn got the pistol and the robber turned and fled. Hahn gave chase, but a number of children returning from an entertainment got in his way and the robber escaped in the darkness of Taylor street. e % The matter was at once reporfed to the police. The detectives belleve the man who attempted the robbery is an amateur at the business. s
